love on hold

"why u haven't married yet ?" he asked me one day, and I returned the same question to him "woman expects the world from a man," he answered. "We are not... well at least I'm not," I countered his reason, "So what do you expect from a man young lady?" "I just demand a simple thing telling you the truth, 'cos my life has been extraordinary in a way and all I need is simplicity." "simple for you doesn't mean simple for a man." "maybe, that's why I haven't marry yet..." "that's why we stay single."

we both smiled.

we are two busy people. I spend all my times working as a writer, and he runs his company and travels frequently, we don't have much time think about a life beyond our job. pethatic ? maybe yet we enjoy what we are doing. And hence we share the same slice of cake.

I said to him in the other day, "you know the older and higher you are, it will only makes the marriage evenmore..." "it goes for you young lady, not for a man, I don't find it that way." "that's not fair, why man always intimidated by a successful woman and not the other way around?" he laughed and said "look at you, you are bossy, I can imagine you'll bossing me around if I marry you."

I insulted.

"I failed three times on my engagement," he confessed. "three bloody times ? and you're not even learn ? I'm sorry." "don't be..." "you made a move and tried, at least." I said sincerely. "When you've found your love, you have to know the way to keep him, " he advised me. " I nodded, "IF..."

we put love agenda on hold with different reasons I guess. He's trying to be fair, since he knows he can't play it right at this moment due to his business matters which in his mind worth for his life. I my self struggle to put it back in my priority after some set backs. But somehow I think he is right, we have to play it right, and don't do thing if we don't even know how to do it right.

Love on hold.

"I do wanna give a chance for this," he said and I smiled, "In our age I think we should give a more space to love."
