If I hadn’t woken up late. If the guy hadn’t spilled his coffee. If I hadn’t had to go back and change. If I hadn’t missed my train. If life wasn’t so unpredictable…
I wouldn’t have met you. You wouldn’t have noticed me. We would never have fallen in love.
Bella Ren is an English student from Brazil. She loves writing and reading English short stories and poetry.
No comments? Hard to believe… you’d think people would be falling over themselves to communicate their ‘what if’ accounts? Shy, I guess. So I’ll begin and hope they will follow suit. If I hadn’t turned around on the station steps to see if she was crying, I could have walked out of her life forever and wouldn’t have had to hand over $250,000 for a divorce settlement.
Woops! Ifs are like that, I guess. Bella is a teenager, so I guess its the time in life you can and should believe in a little romance and live, even if it’s hard to believe.
‘Young people should be excused their illussions – it just makes Old Age so much more real.’ (Prof. Frogg)
I love this story. Ifs are everything…
