6 What is the feeling...

Tired after everything that happened, I slept immediately as soon as my body landed on my bed. When I woke up, it's already nighttime. My stomach grumbled for being empty the whole day, so I went to the kitchen to make a light snack. While making myself a cup of coffee, I remembered the scene that happened earlier this day. I guess there's a possibility of us meeting again, as he looks like he's also in the business circle.

As I sipped my coffee, I went to the garden. The cool breeze of the night gave me goosebumps, but I'm too lazy to go back inside to get a jacket. As I sat down on a bench, I stared at the sculpture in the center of the fountain. The sculpture is a couple, with the boy kneeling in front of the girl while holding a bouquet of flowers.

I looked away from the sculpture, and just stared at nothing. My mind filled with thoughts about love.

"What is the feeling of romantic love?" I asked myself.

Being the only daughter, I was raised knowing that my marriage will be for our business, not for love. That's why even while growing up, I never attempted to be involved in romantic relationships. I usually just squashed whatever feelings I have for someone.

A tear escaped my eye. I'm loved by my family, but there are times when I still feel lonely.

What is the feeling of being romantically in love? I guess I'll never know.

Because I've already accepted my fate - that I'll marry for the business, not for love.
