The good guy

Kevin was taught well at home from young. Everything was fine and it even felt more fine when he met a girl in high school. He was so much in love with the girl and he was even happier to find the girl in love with him too. Kevin was from a poor family, thus he could not afford to give nice presents to the girl, thus they always give each other simple presents and things they could make themselves. And he even worked part-time for her birthday present. They were happy with each other and enjoyed doing simple things together. Like the fairy tales he read in book, he thinks that he will marry this girl.

He loved this girl so much. It all went well until one day he feels the girl has acted on him coldly. He tries to talk to her and convince himself its all right, maybe that will last for few moments more. But Kevin was wrong, it all became a horror tale when he got to know the girl was with another guy. Kevin struggled with anger, denial and confusion all together. He was shattered.

The girl told Kevin, she is sorry, that Kevin wasn't the guy suitable for her and she wasn't for him. But she didn't tell Kevin that the guy was a really a rich and handsome guy, it felt so good being with him, he could give anything, and introduced a new world to her. She was impressed and excited and could experience alot of things when she was with him. She could be proud and arrogant and she was with him.

She really didn't tell Kevin a lot of things. She actually felt bad for Kevin, but her family always ask her to find a rich and good guy, and it felt good and new being with the new guy. She convinced herself that Kevin is a strong guy and he would find a girl real soon, and like what her family said, don't be too serious in a relationship at this age, so all she wanted was to feel good and not get hurt right? She had to protect herself. So why not think for herself and be with someone she felt good with? Maybe Kevin wasn't really serious in this relationship as he seems to, and maybe was bad guy after all.

In Kevin's world now, its all different, he doesn't feel alive anymore. Everything was meaningless at this point. He feels he was stupid, really stupid. All this while, everything is a lie. There isn't love anymore in Kevin's world. Love is a business to him, its about what you can give, even with friends. In his mind, maybe his family wants him to be good because its for their names' sake. Kevin begins to protect himself from everyone, thus being selfish and wants to find money, no matter what it takes. " All this time, I have been wrong, money was the answer, if I have money, I have it all, even the so-called love, " thinks Kevin.
