A Silent Love

From the very beginning, the girl's family objected strongly to her dating this guy. Saying that it has got to do with the family's background and the girl will have to suffer for the rest of her life is she were to be with him.

Due to family's pressure, the couple often quarrel. Though the girl loves the guy deeply, but she always ask, "How deep is you love for me?"

As the guy is not good with words, he ends up making the girl mad all the time. With that and the family's pressure on her, the girl often vents her anger on him. But he endures it in silence.

After a couple of years, the guy finally graduated and decided to further his studies overseas. Before leaving, he proposed to the girl, "I'm not very good with words but all I know is that I love you. If you allow me, I will take care of you for the rest of my life. As for your family, I will do my best to talk them round. Will you marry me?"

The girl agreed and with the guy's determination, the family gave in. So before the guy left, they got engaged and the girl wore his ring.

The girl went out to the working society, whereas the guy was continuing with his studies overseas. They sent their love through emails and phone calls. Though it is hard, they never thought of giving up. This was their promise to each other.



One day, while the girl was on her way to work, she was hit by a car that lost control. When she woke up, she saw her parents by her bed. She realized she was badly injured. Seeing her mum crying, she wanted to console her. But the only thing that came out of her mouth was just a sigh. She has lost her voice.

The doctor said that the impact on her brain has caused her to lose her voice. Listening to her parent's comfort, but with nothing coming out of her, she broke down.

During her stay in the hospital, she was accompanied by silence. Upon reaching home, everything seems to be the same. Except for the ringing of the phone, which pierced into her heart everytime it rang. She does not wish to let the guy know, and not wanting to burden him, she wrote him a letter telling him that she couldn't wait any longer. With that, she sent the ring back to him.

In return, the guy sent millions and millions of replies and countless phone calls. All the girl could do was cry, but they were silent cries.



The parents decided to move away, hoping that she could forget everything and be happy.

With a new environment, the girl learns sign language and started a new life. Telling herself that one day she will forget the guy she loved.

One day, her friend came and told her that he's back. She asked her friend not to tell him what has happened to her. Since then, there were no more news about him.

A year has passed and her friend came to her with a white envelope. She opened it slowly. Inside, there was an invitation card to a wedding. It was the guy's wedding. The girl was shattered and was totally numb. She read it again. Then she saw the bride's name. It was hers.

When she turned to her friend to ask what was going on, she saw the guy standing in front of her. He was smiling and with his hands he said, "I've spent a year learning sign language just to let you know that I have never forgotten our promise. Give me the chance to be your voice. I love you." With that, he slipped the ring back into her finger.

The girl finally smiled.
