The White Roses
The setting sun painted the sky peaches. It was very beautiful and soothing to my eyes. Day by day my love for this art has increased. I began to sip the peace I brewed in the cup. He bought it for my last birthday. The prints were already fading. A white cup with beautifully painted red hearts. Similarly, our love started fading slowly.


It all started in fifth grade. He used to tease me every moment he got. Two little enemies grew into lovers. Both of us were like each other's diaries, where anything wrongly written was not a problem. Because those mistakes were nothing, as we wrote them all with the ink of love. And now it's been 13 years. Tomorrow is our anniversary and my birthday



I bought him some fresh little flowers white and pink. He loved flowers more than I did.
Also, I planted thirteen white roses. They danced to the rhythm of the wind after draining some of the water I gave them. I must make a bouquet of them tomorrow morning. I drank the last of my coffee and got up from the window.



It's been 1 year since we talked. On my birthday last year, he waved me back with his beautiful smile. At night I called him as usual. He did not respond to my calls. I was so upset that I contacted our friends. They said they won't talk to me anymore. I asked them to tell him to answer my calls. But he refused. I was very angry. I could not sleep that night and decided to meet him at his house in the morning.



I wore his favourite outfit from my collection. On the way, I bought a small cactus for him. I reached his house. His relatives looked at me like I had done something wrong. Suddenly his sister came to me and held my hand.
"Where is he? Still mad at me?"
"He's on his way home. Come on, let's go to my room."
I went upstairs with her. Placing my bag on her desk, I went to his room and placed the cactus on his shelf next to our engagement photo.



I came out of the room and I saw him. He wore white, his favourite colour. Still, he didn't look at me. I smiled. Yet he ignored me. I sat next to him and caressed his hair.



"Why didn't you pick up my calls since yesterday? You even ignored my messages. What happened?"
"Mom, ask him why he is doing this. Even now he is ignoring me in front of everyone."
She hugged me tightly and sat next to me. I woke up three hours later. My family came there. My eyes searched only for him. But he wasn't there. I don't know what happened to me. I can't even stand up on my own. We reached home and I went straight to my room. I texted him good night because I was so tired. Then I went to sleep. I texted him till today but he didn't reply.


Well, I'm so happy to see him on our special day tomorrow. I don't know how the night went by so fast. I went near him and placed the flowers and bouquet near him.
