Once upon a time, there was once a guy who was very much in love with this girl. This romantic
guy folded 1,000 pieces of papercranes as a gift to his girl. Although, at that time he was just a
small executive in his company, his future doesn't seem too bright, they were very happy
together. Until one day, his girl told him she was going to Paris and will never come back.She
also told him that she cannot visualize any future for the both of them, so let's go their own ways
there and then... heartbroken, the guy agreed.
When he regained his confidence, he worked hard day and night, just to make something out of
himself. Finally with all these hard work and with the help of friends, this guy had set up his own
company...
"You never fail until you stop trying." he always told himself. "I must make it in life!" One rainy
day, while this guy was driving, he saw an elderly couple sharing an umbrella in the rain walking
to some destination. Even with the umbrella, they were still drenched. It didn't take him long to
realize those were his ex-girlfriend's parents. With a heart in getting back at them, he drove
slowly beside the couple, wanting them to spot him in his luxury saloon. He wanted them to
know that he wasn't the same anymore, he had his own company, car, condo, etc. He had made it
in life!
Before the guy can realize, the couple was walking towards a cemetery, and he got out of his car
and followed them...and he saw his exgirlfriend, a photograph of her smiling sweetly as ever at
him from her tombstone... and he saw his precious papercranes in a bottle placed beside her
tomb. Her parents saw him.He walked over and asked them why this had happened. They
explained that she did not leave for France at all. She was stricken ill with cancer. In her heart,
she had believed that he will make it someday, but she did not want her illness to be his
obstacle ... therefore she had chosen to leave him.
She had wanted her parents to put his papercranes beside her, because, if the day comes when
fate brings him to her again he can take some of those back with him. The guy
just wept
