You See The View,
So I Thought I've Lost Him Through The Years

So I thought. After several years in the US, I had painstakingly tried to locate an old great friend I truly missed thru the years. Way back then his seminary days and on that fateful summer where they stayed in our town for a vacation. We got it right from the very start. He looked frail and I teased him the guy who can't break a plate. He is handsome and I was wondering why he entered the seminary. He is mild mannered and so much fun to be with. He is friendly and knows how to reach out. He is rich yet very low key. And soon I learned to handle him with care. I have a growing fondness of him. I would do anything to see him everyday. I am so happy we became good friends. And I know he is happy too. We were a happy lot.
Soon the vacation is over and he left. A big vacuum was left engaging in my being and in my heart. I followed him one more time at the seminary in Baguio. I knew then that I have gone past just friendship. I needed more but I am just in a perfect dilemna. I can not lose him.
But fate did something else to my life that changed everything. I was transported in a different world of reality that I was never ready. So the change came and I was again in a whirlwind of another change. I landed in the US. But I haven't forgotten him. Yet I know only time will tell or will there be another next time. The moment had passed. I passed out an opportunity probably. I heard he went out of the seminary. Too many years and events happened. I can never get back to that magical moment ever again. But I can dream.
So the search is on. The moment I got my computer I tried searching wherever is possible. I have taken all possibilities and still tinkering of the idea of what ifs.
So I finally got hold of him through a client. I emailed him and he called me back. I was so happy. He is now married with two kids. They now live in New York and happy.
