Watery eyes, tears falling on his cheeks without he asking. He wiped it and said,

" I must be happy in front of her." then, he smiled back.

They greeted his arrival well looking throughout their acquaintance, the girl once took him to meet the girl's parents. They talked a lot, until the girl is coming. He was stunned for a moment to see the beauty of the girl on that special day. He said in his heart, 

" How lucky that guy to have you in his life..." 

The girl hugged him, and thanked him for coming to the wedding. He just smiled. 

The wedding ceremony went smoothly. The girl has become someone else's, and there he was the only one standing in a quiet corner away from others watching the wedding with tears in his eyes. He wiped it as the girl approached. The girl thanks him for giving her the courage to love someone again. He smiled. 

He then left the ceremony. Driving his car with tears in his eyes. 

THE END

" Sometimes, the love we crave will not end up being ours even though we have tried our best to make it ours. Loving someone in silence is very painful sometimes because the love we give to her/him will never be reciprocated if we remain silent. If you love someone in silence, tell her/him. If he/she refuses, it's okay. As long as you try your best to tell him/her. But, never think of to ending your life if your love is rejected. However, if your love is accepted, thank to God that He has heard your prayers all this time. And for the person who will have this kind of person in your life, do not break the heart of him/her who has always loved you and tried his/her best to have you. Take good care of him/her, surely he/she will remain loyal to you. People who love sincerely are hard to find these days. So cherish the person who loves you sincerely regardless of your physicality or your background. "
