This love story is not all my own. A very close friend of my
sister's, who is like another older sister to me, told me this story
once. Here it is as well as I remember.--
Eileen had been going out with greg for a while now and she
thought highly of him. She liked him a lot but no more than any
other girl liked her boyfriend in highschool. Eileen's best friend,
Amy, personally didn't like him though. " Its not that I dont like
him.... he"s just a slob!", Amy whould say, she had always
thoguht of greg as a heartbreaker. Eileen whouldn't believe it
and would do whatever she could do to try and get Greg and
Amy to get along. This wasn"t working though.
One night Eileen was waitng for Greg to call but he never did.
"He said he was going to call", she thought,"and he never goes
back on his word, I think." The next day at school everyone was
talking about the romor started that Greg ditched Eileen to
spend a night full of movies and fun at his ex-girlfriend's house.
Amy knew it was true, and she was right , but she didn't even
try to explain to Eileen because she knew she wouldn"t believe
her. Eileen would probably just think it was another excuse
madeup so she would dump him. Eileen and Amy's other
friends , both happen to be named Jen, broke the news to
her. Eileen knew it could be true and that they would never
make up such a thing but she didn't want to believe them. The
biggest mistake was when greg came to Eileen's house with
flowers and an apology. He said he had never ment ot hurt her
and that he was always by her side. She replied, "Yeah, until last
night!". And left him standing there dumbfounded. Eileen was
very upset and went crying to her best friends, Jen, Jen,
Amy,and Bob. Bob sat and listened and helped her through
whatever he could. Eileen was getting over him until one night
greg called out of the blue an dasked her how she was doing.
Apparently Eileen had to listen while fighting back tears how his
social life was going great, not to mention his dating life too.
She had to admit it was annoying, until it turned harsh when
Greg said to her, "Yeah, me and " ( who ever his ex- girlfriend
was) " are dating again and getting along great. Now that I
have gotten together with her for a second time, I truly know
what it is like to care for someone." Elieen started to cry right
on the phone and managed to force out a goddbye. That
week almost everyone knew about Eileen's dramatic sceen on
the phone. All were sending their sympathy, but Bob was the
one who touched her. Bob wrote Eileen about how he had
really enjoyed one night when they went out to the movies
togethter. He said it was a fun night and that he hopes they
van do it again some other time. Eileen realized he was a great
guy who really cared and was listening to her th e whole time
she was crying about Greg. Quickly, she forgot Greg and set
her goal for another movie with Bob. They are now married,
and have been together ever since. : ) THE END
