I’ve alway had a soft corner for my paternal cousin since the days we were little kids and I’m pretty sure she felt the same about me. I thought we’ll marry when the age is about right. And now I learn from Facebook that she has a boyfriend and is actively going out with him. I never looked at another girl in the college because I thought ours was the purest form of love. Now it seems I was wrong and I simply can’t stand the sight of her. I’m thinking of confronting her and letting her know what exactly I had in my mind.
