Before i went to sleep last night,i chatted with my boyfriend Chen through mobil phone as usual.
I forget how we came to the topic of his gift,but i remember clearly what we talked about follows.
"How's the watch i gave to you now?"Chen asked.
"Oh...still doesn't work.You know,i haven't found an appropriate watch store to send it to be repaired."I said.
"Do you know how i presented to you?"after a short pause he asked.
"Sure!It's the first gift you presented to me,and it was presented on the National Day of 2004."i was full of confidence that he'd be happy to know i remembered clearly.
"But you don't know how i bought it."He said in a sad tone.
i was a little take aback.With no idea what he meant to say,i jsut asked gently "how?"
"i bought it with the money i saved during my elementary school.The money with which i intended to buy something i dreamed of.But i finally gave the dream to you."He said.
Instantly my tears rushed out of my eyes.I was so guilty!The watch has been broken for almost 3 years,but i failed to repair it even once!How could i do that to the gift full of his love?
"Oh.i'm so sorry,dear.You should tell me early,you little fool..."i know my words were pale.
"Now you know that.Tell you what,i didn't expect the money would depreciat so quickly."He joked.
I chulcked.
"I love you,and i'm willing to sacrifice everything for you."He said firmly.
That moment my love towards him was totally overshadowed by his towards me.I used to think i'd done enough for him,and my love was enough.Now i realized what i'd done for him was far much less than it's supposed to be.
There's moderation in everything,but love.
