How love influenced our life


   Love isn’t a priority to me. To me love is just a significant feeling. When everybody struggled to get love, I would think they are crazy. I always wonder if love is that important in our lives. Well, that was before I met him…….

  Waking up in a cold chilly morning. The sky is darkened and it looks like it is threatening to rain. As usual, I would just stretch myself and then get up from the bed lazily. “ It’s another day with the same routine,” I said to myself. I made my bed and grabbed my towel and walked towards the bathroom. As the bone chilling water spread on my back, I instantly wake from my sleepily daydream. I realized today is the day. The day I got a new boss in my office. As I’m in charge of his welcoming ceremony, I quickly grabbed my towel and got dress as fast as I could.

  Hurrying down the stairs while doing a short checklist to make sure I looked my best. I went to the kitchen and grabbed myself a sandwich that was last night’s leftover and go into the car. “ That new boss would kill me if I ruined his ceremony.” I panicked. I turned my eyes towards the digital clock on the side of the wheel and realized that I still have an hour to spare. So, I drive slowly instead.

  Reaching the entrance of the building I worked in, there were only a few have arrived. Checking everything that’s for the ceremony and I’m satisfied. Then my stomach grumbles so I pampered my stomach with some light snack at the nearby cafeteria.

  Out of nowhere, a guy just sat in front of me and stared at me. I thought it was weird because I have never seen him before. He was smiling at me. Didn’t know what else to do, I just simply smile back and continue my light snack. I felt discomfort so I just get up and walk away. Strangely that man kept on following me.

  “ What do you want?” I blurted out of impatience.

  “Is that how you welcome your new boss?” He asked with that smile from before.

  Realizing that, I quickly apologized. At that moment, I wish the floor would open up and swallow me in. Seeing my face turn as red as a tomato, he laughed out loud. “What kind of boss is this?” I asked myself. Then he stares at me again but this time in a serious face. Then I saw his face has the most handsome feature with his hazel nut eyes, I was stunned.

  Then the ceremony starts and everybody had arrived. When it’s time for the speech, that guy gave me a shock. He spoke so confidently and fluently. I hardly recognize the guy from the cafeteria. “Well, he is my boss after all.” I muttered to myself. After that day, everything went back to the usual office routine.

  Ever since Jeremy came as the boss of this company, our profits had increased tremendously. The most unbelievable thing is that our company has finally ranked as the top 50 in the world. Being his usual self, he would come and watch me do my work.

  As time passes, I soon have feelings for him. I mean who wouldn’t. He’s rich, intelligent and has a great sense of humor. Likewise, he had feelings for me too. So, he decided that we should get together and I totally agreed.

  After six months, we decided to get married even though we just met, we knew that we are made for each other. But unfortunately everything went crazy. On the day before our marriage, he decided to take me for a luxurious dinner on a ship. I was so happy and figured that I was the luckiest girl around. As we were enjoying our moment, then out of the blue, a gunshot was fired. Everyone went horrified and stayed low. We did the same. Then I saw at the counter, a man was holding a gun that is threatening a young girl. He wanted money, jewelries and watches. He asked someone to collect them and put them in a bag.

  Jeremy stood up as he refused to give away just like that and ran crashing to the man when he wasn’t looking. The girl was freed from the man and quickly ran to her boyfriend. I watch horrifyingly as Jeremy fought with the man while everybody ran for their lives. Then, a gunshot was fired again. Jeremy had killed the man by accident. I was glad that he is still alive so I ran for his arm. The man lying on the pool of blood, grabbed the gun and fire before he sleeps for eternity. The bullet hit Jeremy right at the heart. My world shattered into pieces as Jeremy slowly closes his eyes.

  Now, it has past two years. I would be lost in my own world most of the time. The young girl would always thank me and offer some helped as she felt bad. But I couldn’t be bothered. I loved him so much and I still do. The incident is still vivid in my mind and it made me realize the importance of love in our lives.
