Say“I Love You”大聲說出你的愛

·Matthew·

There was once a guy who suffered from cancer, a cancer that can't be cured. He was 18 years old and he could die anytime.All his life, he was stuck in his house being taken care of by his mother.He never went outside but he was sick of staying home and wanted to go out for once.So he asked his mother and she gave him permission.

He walked down his block and found a lot of stores. He passed a CD store and looked through the front door for a second as he walked.He stopped and went back to look into the store.He saw a beautiful girl about his age and he knew it was love at first sight.He opened the door and walked in, not looking at anything else but her.He walked closer and closer until he was finally at the front desk where she sat.

She looked up and asked，“Can I help you?”

She smiled and he thought it was the most beautiful smile he has ever seen before and wanted to kiss her right there.

He said，“Uh……Yeah……Umm……I would like to buy a CD.”

He picked one out and gave her money for it.

“Would you like me to wrap it for you?”she asked, smiling her cute smile again.

He nodded and she went to the back. She came back with the wrapped CD and gave it to him.He took it and walked out of the store.

He went home and from then on, he went to that store every day and bought a CD, and she wrapped it for him. He took the CD home and put it in his closet.He was still too shy to ask her out and he really wanted to but he couldn't.His mother found out about this and told him to just ask her.So the next day, he took all his courage and went to the store as usual.He bought a CD like he did every day and once again she went to the back of the store and came back with it wrapped.He took it and when she wasn't looking, he left his phone number on the desk and ran out……

RRRRRING！

One day the phone rang, and the mother picked it up and said，“Hello?”It was the girl！The mother started to cry and said，“You don't know?He passed away yesterday……”

The line was quiet except for the cries of the boy's mother. Later in the day, the mother went into the boy's room because she wanted to remember him.She thought she would start by looking at his clothes.So she opened the cIoset.

She was face to face with piles and piles and piles of unopened CDs. She was surprised to find all these CDs and she picked one up and sat down on the bed and she started to open one.Inside, there was a CD and as she took it out of the wrapper, out fell a piece of paper.The mother picked it up and started to read it.It said：Hi……I think U R reaIIy cute.Do u wanna go out with me?Love, Jocelyn.

The mother was deeply moved and opened another CD……Again there was a piece of paper. It said：Hi……I think U R really cute.Do u wanna go out with me?Love, Jocelyn.

Love is……when you've had a huge fight but then decide to put aside your egos, hold hands and say，“I Love You.”

從前，有一個(gè)少年患了癌癥，根本無法治愈。18歲的他隨時(shí)都面臨著死亡的威脅。他每天都待在家里，由母親照料著，從未出過家門。他在家實(shí)在待煩了，想出去走走，便征得母親的同意，出了門。

走在大街上，他看到很多商店。當(dāng)路過一家音像店時(shí)，他情不自禁地透過櫥窗向里望了望。他停下腳步，又轉(zhuǎn)身折回店門口，向里望去。一個(gè)與他年齡相仿的、漂亮可愛的女孩子引起了他的注意。他對(duì)她一見鐘情。他打開門，走了進(jìn)去，眼里始終只有那女孩一個(gè)人。他不由自主地走到了柜臺(tái)前，走到那個(gè)女孩坐著的地方。

女孩抬頭問：“請(qǐng)問，您需要什么？”

她微笑著，他覺得這是他一生中所見到的最迷人的笑容，其實(shí)此時(shí)他最想做的就是親吻她。

他說：“是的，嗯，那個(gè)……我想買一張CD?！?/p>

他隨便拿了張CD，連同錢一起遞給了她。

“我給你包起來吧？”女孩問，又沖他露出了迷人的微笑。

他點(diǎn)了點(diǎn)頭。她回到柜臺(tái)后面，出來時(shí)，把包裝好的CD交給了他。他接過來，走出了商店。

他回家了。自那以后，他每天都要去那家音像店買一張CD。女孩每次都會(huì)給他包好，而他每次把CD拿回家，都放到壁櫥里。他很害羞，沒有勇氣約她出去，他真的很想那么做，卻做不到。母親知道后，不斷地鼓勵(lì)他。第二天，他終于鼓起了勇氣，像往常一樣走進(jìn)了那家音像店，買了一張CD，她也像往常一樣，到柜臺(tái)后把CD包了起來。他接過CD，趁她不注意時(shí)將自己的電話號(hào)碼放在柜臺(tái)上，然后跑了出去……

丁零零！

一天，電話鈴響了起來，母親接起電話說：“喂，您好！”是那個(gè)女孩打來的！母親傷心地哭了，她說：“你知道嗎？他昨天‘走’了……”

電話那端沉默了片刻，只能聽到母親的啜泣聲。后來，母親到兒子的房間去，她只是想念兒子了，想看看他的衣服，于是打開了壁櫥。

一大堆包好的CD映入了母親的眼簾，這些CD都沒有拆開過。母親感到很吃驚，她好奇地打開一個(gè)包裝，從中取出CD，一張小字條從里面掉了出來。她撿了起來，看到上面這樣寫著：嘿，你好嗎？我覺得你真的好可愛，愿意和我一起出去嗎？愛你的喬斯林。

母親被深深地感動(dòng)了，她打開了另一個(gè)CD盒……也有一張小字條，上面寫著同樣的話：嘿，你好嗎？我覺得你真的好可愛，愿意和我一起出去嗎？愛你的喬斯林。

愛就是在你做了巨大的思想斗爭(zhēng)之后，最終決定舍棄自我，面對(duì)愛人，攥緊手，說出“我愛你”。
