I was listening to 933 jus now and heard this particular entry.
A lady wrote to ling zhi.
17 years ago, a young gal, Y met this guy Z when they were working part-time. Z was a handsome young man, whereas Y was a fat and ugly gal. Y found herself falling in love with him. She tried very hard to look her best. Z was very touched by her efforts and soon, they fell in love. Everyone felt that their relationship wouldnÂ’t last. But Y didnÂ’t care. She still pamper him with all her love and care.
Things started to change when Z was drafted into the army to serve his nation service. Initially Z would call Y very often. Soon it became once every week, twice a week, to none. Y tot it was because of the training he has received. Every sat afternoon, Y would find herself sitting by the telephone, waiting for ZÂ’s call. But he never did.
They started to drift apart. Z never asked her out for movies, coffee or shopping anymore. The onli time he did contact Y was to borrow money from her or to satisfy his craving for sex. Y was onli 22 then. Even though Z was different form before but Y was happy to have his attention, even if it meant some sacrifice on her part.
Y herself was feeling insecure of the relationship and after thinking for a long while, she decided to test Z. so one day, Y told Z that she was pregnant with his child but she didnÂ’t want the baby to hamper his plans so she went for an abortion. Y was hoping Z would hold her close, tell her that heÂ’s sorry and would never hurt her again. But she was wrong.
Z left without saying a word. And that was the last time Y ever saw him. Z was very hurt. She finally found out that Z was toying with her feelings. The more she thing, the more hurt she felt. Inside her, everything started to fall apart. She couldnÂ’t face herself nor her family anymore, she wanted to end her life. So she took sleeping pills and lie on her bed awaiting death. But she was saved by her sister.
It was during this time that she realize that her family cared so much for her. Even thou it was very difficult for her to move on, she doesnÂ’t want to let her family, the people who love her, down.
9 months after she was discharged , she got married.
Her family was against this marriage for fear of her getting hurt in a relationship again. But Y was determined that this guy, A, was the one for her.

And they did gotten married, A few days before their wedding day, Y told A about her past , how she was used and hurt.
A said this to her , “ what’s important to us now is the present and the future. Let the past be the past.”
Today, A and Y are happily married for 12 years and they have 2 kids now. Even thou A was declared bankrupt after a failed business venture, Y still love him deeply. A would still bring her out for dinner, movies and for strolls.
Then the author tell lingzhi that she was Y.
