I was with my boyfriend Damien at the canteen when you came and sat at our table with us. You were beautiful, and your smile added more beauty and sunshine to your face. We became close friends.
Though I fully trusted Damien, I knew he had eyes for many beautiful girls at the university and had a checkered past at the university. He had several girlfriends that I knew about and I am sure some I did not.
As Damien completed his studies found employment, our love was blossoming. You and I became more than just friends.
One day we accidentally met at the library. I was behind you. I wrapped your body behind and covered your eyes with my palm and fingers.
As you never expected me, you made a quick turn and said, ''you, Matilda?"
"Yes, Natalia, it's me," though you were a little shorter than me, your soft lips were in front of my lips.
The first time our lips met, we both were rubbing and chewing our lips, exploring our mouths as our fully bloomed breasts slid over our dresses. As you spread your legs a little I lifted mine and your skirts provided the room to meet well covered but wet areas.
As our heartbeats were rising and bodies were in the firing mood by rubbing and kissing, we both reached the end of no return, the final destination. We both were marking our necks when we heard the sound of footsteps. We quickly parted, and arranged our messy hair and skirts.
You looked into my eyes and whispered, "I know you wanted that, and so did I."
You asked me, "are you going to marry Damien?''
I said, ''yes, Natalia.''
"I like you very much, Matlida," you said.
''Natalia, you told me one day that you didn't want to find a lover here."
''Yes, I did, but you are different, Matilda.''
You continued, ''I don't want you to betray him. We'll continue our friendship as sisters."
We parted with tears.
When I heard that Damien was having a secret affair with Miranda, another senior girl from our university, I could not believe it.
The next day Damien left me, sending me a short message. ''Goodbye, Matilda.''
I was shocked. I wept, cried, lamented, my heart was in pieces. Your sincere words healed my wounded heart to some extent.
Then I heard that Damien was going to marry Miranda. It didn't affect my heart or mind
I used to meet you at the canteen but started missing you. I was expecting you as usual, but we never met.
I became as silent as you were.
I was stunned when I heard the news that Miranda left Damien, and you were going to him to fill the vacuum created by her. I couldn't believe my ears when my friends told me that you both were planning to marry very soon.
I could remember your words, ''Damien is not handsome or smart, but he has some attractive features.''
I couldn't contact you even if I wished.
