Love Story(Daily Prompt- SLUR)

Hidden Love 

They were best friends since long. Always together hanging out, partying. He used to joke, “I Love You, You enjoy my company, we are best friends then lets get married and continue this life forever… fun and party . What say… ”  Her reaction was as always a Big Laugh.

Time passed by and a big day came in her life.. Her marriage. He was with her supporting her decision, joking, dancing and enjoying his best friend’s marriage.

When time came to bid good bye to his best friend, he hugged her with a broad smile congratulating her. When she turned to move ahead he slurred something in a low voice, “I LOVE YOU and wanted to be with you forever…”.  As always she was about to laugh on her best friend’s joke, she turned towards him. This time he was not joking.. he never was. Tears rolled down from his eyes and hers too.
