Wednesday, August 31st, 2005Someone told me bout tis love story. Wow!! i like the last sentence, love is all bout to HOLD ON, not to let go~~haha…if u’re willing to let her/him go, it’s not the true one bahh…i think the guy is dead of kidneys mulfunction or kidneys stone..he had too much salt…wopz or high blood presure or heart attack haha!!!no more crap here the story :-
He met her at a party. She was so outstanding, many guys chasing after her, while he was so normal, nobody paid attention to him. At the end of the party, he invited her to haf coffee with him, she was surprised but due to being polite, she promised. They sat in a nice coffee shop, he was too nervous to say anything, she felt umcomfortable, and she thought to herself "please, let me go home…" Suddenly he asked the waiter,"would you please give me sum salt? i’d like to put it in my coffee." everybody stared at him, so strange! His face turned red but still, he put the salt in his coffee and drank it. She asked him curiously, "why you haf this hobby?" he replied, "when i was little boy, i lived near the sea, i liked to playing in the sea, i could feel the taste of the sea, just like the taste of the salty coffee. Now everytime i haf the salty coffee, i always think of my childhood, think of my hometown, i miss my hometown so much, i miss my parents who are still living there."while saying that tears filled his eyes. She was deeply touched. Thats his true feeling, from the bottom of is heart. A man who can tell out his homesickness, he must be a man who loves home, care about home, has responsibility of home…Then she also started to speak, spoke about her faraway hometown, her childhood, her family. That was a really nice talk, also a beautiful beginning of their story. They continued to date. She found that actually he was a man who meets all her demands, he had tolerance, was kind hearted, warm careful. He was such a good person but she almost missed him! Thanks to his salty coffee! Then the story was just like evry beautiful love story, the princess married to the prince, and then they were living the happy life…and everytime she made coffee for him, she put some salt in the coffee, as she knew thats the way he liked it.
After 40yrs, he passed away, left her a letter which said "My dearest, pls forgive me, forgive me whole life’s lie. This was the only lie i said to you — the salty coffee. Remember the first time we dated? i was so nervous at that time, actually i wanted some sugar, but i said salt. It was hard for me to change so i just went ahead. I never thought that could be the start of our communication! I tried to tell you the truth many times in my life, but i was too afraid to do that, as i have promised not to lie to you for anything..Now i’m dying, i afraid of nothing so i tell you the truth, i dont like the salty coffee, what a strange bad taste…but i have had the salty coffee for my whole life! Since i knew you, i never feel sorry for anything i do for you. Having you with me is the biggest happiness for my whole life. if i can live for the second time, still want to know you and have you for my whole lif, even though i have to drink the ++salty coffee++ again. Her tears made the letter totally wet. Someday, someone asked her, "wats the taste of salty coffee?" she replied, "its sweet."
Love is not to forget but to forgive, not to see but understand, not to hear but to listen, not to let go but HOLD ON!!,
