What is Love About
The 20th century is called by everybody "Love Century". Most of the teenagers think that love is important for them, they can’t live without love. Just like my friend John and his friend Michael.
A few years ago, when I still in Hong Kong, John was one of my best friends. He fallen in love with Linda. Linda was beautiful girl and also she is lovely. John and Linda had some classes together, so they known each other very fast. They usually helped each other’s home work during the after school. They were very happy when they stay together, after long time staying with Linda and having fun, John started to love Linda, but those happy days would no longer appear for John. One day after school, John tried to wait for Linda, but when she came out, John saw her holding hands with Michael, they were coming out together. John couldn’t believe what he saw in front of his own eyes. He loved Linda so much, but Linda weren’t love him, and he couldn’t believe her boy friend is his friend, Michael. Now all he could do is walk home by him self. That night he didn’t sleep and think about those happy day with Linda. He didn’t understand why Linda loved Michael but not him. He got tired, only thing in his mind was "Love".
Next school day he came to school and he told Linda he Loved her, at the same time Michael came over and heard what John said, John didn’t really care. The only thing he cared about is Linda’s answer. He hope Linda would say she loved him too, but she didn’t. she told John that she treated him like a friend, and nothing else more than a friend. Then she said "hi" to Michael then walked away. That answer really made John sad. Now Michael walked over to John and told him Linda Won’t love you, she only loves me. Also Linda Michael want John to leave Linda alone or else their friendship is over.
John and Michael were pretty good friends before but now they became love enemies. John still couldn’t take the truth. Next day was Linda’s birthday and she had a birthday at her house. She invited a lot of her friends and also included John and Michael. At the party they all looked very happy except John. He was sitting there not talking to other people and not getting up and dancing with some body. After party, John bring up his roses gave them to Linda, also told her, he loved her very much. He knew she would not love him but he still trying to tell Linda that, he hope she would change her mind, but she didn’t. The answer from Linda are the same, she only loved Michael. Now he was very tired of love.
That night he didn’t go to his house, he came to my house and told me everything and some strange words. I didn’t really understand him very well that night, but the next morning when I wake up and I didn’t see him in the bed, now I understand what he meant last night. He is gone. No one knows where he will be. From that day on I never saw him again. What is love about?
