Times That I Became So Pathetic

CHAPTER 3: REMEMBERING THE SWEET GENTLE JASON

Jason was a classmate in my minor subjects in college. He was an AB- English student. He was a seatmate in many of our college subjects. At first, I just saw him walking around the campus. He had been a crush then but never did I think about an opportunity of having him as a friend. It's not until he became a classmate, happily, come second year. I felt his sweetness. He was so gentle. He shared to me some of his day's thoughts and all that. Not only he was sweet. He was SOOO charming as well. One day, I told him how my feeling for him developed into something I can't explain. I told him that I think I loved him. But he turned me down saying 'I'm straight and there's no way that we can be together'. The last thing I knew, he just had a girlfriend. I was so down that I did not anymore attend to my classes, I did not study, I even wore all black on wednesdays. Such that, I failed in some of my subjects. Hahaha...

But I was so grateful to Jason. Unlike many guys, he took some time to listen to me. We talked couple of times at the chapel just to clarify things between us. He did that just to comfort me and make me feel still valued. That helped me a lot to move on. I appreciate him for the effort. Through that, he let me feel my worth. That is something that only a real gentleman could do.
