NOT until the terrible earthquake hit Sichuan Province on May 12 did I realize that I had fallen for him and would love him forever.
Wang Yu was a good friend in high school. To tell the truth, he was not very smart or outstanding at that time. But he was kind-hearted, generous and helpful to everyone. Since he was tall and strong, he always treated me like his little sister. I liked the feeling of being protected by a masculine brother like him.
But one day he told me, "I love you, Ling. I have been in love with you since junior high school. But…"
"What?" I was so angry that I shouted at him. By telling me this now, he was distracting my attention from my studies. So I quickly ran away.
A few days later, I learned that he had quit school. Later, he sent me a letter from Sichuan Province and told me that he had joined the army. In the letter, he apologized for his words and encouraged me to study hard to pass the college entrance exam.
I forgave him and told him we would be best friends forever. I worked hard and got admitted to my dream university, after which he told me again that he loved me. But this time he said he wouldn't force me to do anything. He said he would be a good brother to me and would spare no effort to help me if I ever got in trouble. Every night, he sent me a message. He said he just wanted me to know that he would always be with me.
Out of habit, on the night of May 12, I took out my cellphone to read his message. But there was nothing. "What's wrong with him?" I thought. Is he ill or busy with his mission? I couldn't fall asleep that night. The next day I learned about the horrible earthquake.
Was he all right? I dialed his cellphone number. No answer. Was he injured or … I didn't dare to keep thinking along those lines. I dialed again. No response. I cried my eyes out.
Until that time, I had not realized how much I cared for him. I lived on in fear until my cellphone rang at last. I burst into tears immediately when I heard his hoarse voice.
"I am OK," he said. "The earthquake has caused a break in communications, so I could not get in touch with you. But I'm OK."
"Why didn't you tell me earlier?" I sobbed.
"I'm very sorry, but communications have only just been restored. We are doing the disaster relief work now. It's urgent. So I won't be able to contact you again for several days, OK?"
"I know. I wish I could be with you. I'll love you forever."
"You're certainly always with me, honey, heart to heart though far apart."
"Listen, I'm proud of you. But what I want you to do is take care of yourself and make sure that you come back safely, OK? I really can't lose you."
"OK, I promise. Honey, I'm not afraid. I'll try my best to rescue the survivors with your love. I love you."
Now I'm doing what I can do to support the people in the disaster areas–donating money and blood and praying for them, especially for my beloved Wang Yu.
