Rainy Days and Mondays (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781540522276)

Hangin' around, nothing to do but frown; Rainy days and Mondays always get me down. Unlike the lyrics of the song by the Carpenters, this story will make you fall in love with rainy days. Do you believe in destiny? How about true love? A puppy love? A one-sided love? Or a best friend's love? They say that love conquers all, love endures and love finds. Well, is it? really? A story of a teenage girl - Nataly, who fell in love with her best friend Aaron who is in love with somebody else. Aaron is head over heels with his girlfriend. He is deeply in love that he didn't notice that he hurt someone else. They accidentally met in a cafeteria where Nataly used to work part-time. Nataly asked her a favor (though Aaron was a stranger to her, she bravely asked and trusted him at the very moment she set eyes on him). Aaron agreed on the favor (he doesn't even know why he agreed but he feels that it will be good for her) and they became good friends since then. She met the girlfriend and become friends with her too. Time goes by..... And one day, Nataly realized that she started to feel something. Unsure but she doesn't like the feeling. She started to ignore and control it but it's hopeless. It is really hard when you finally found the man of your dreams and he's happy with someone else. An unexpected love bloom. Unwanted. She tried to stop the feeling, but the more she denied, the more she gets hurt. The more she tried to escape, the more it gets closer and deeper. Nobody knows except her and her best friend - Cherry. It should not be known. She has to protect the friendship that they have. And the best thing she thought that would help her move on is to move away. Away from everything that will remind her of their friendship and her one-sided love. Most importantly, away from them. She knows that seeing him most of the time will only make her feelings to blossom. And she can't handle it. Now, she has to decide. She knows that running away is not the perfect solution but at that moment she really wanted to be alone. She wanted to start a new life without him. New job, new place, new people, and new environment. She wanted a new start. Years passed. No news. No communication. She started living again. Searching for love but cannot find. She's still hoping that one day, she will meet someone like him. She's hoping that there will be another knight in shining armor that will save her and protect her. But a knight who will love her too. One day, she saw someone who looks like him. She was scared. She doubted and let it go. But she wondered why her heart beats so fast. After long years of not seeing him, she still feels the thrills. She tried to ignore it and focus on what's to be done. But what if their roads will cross again? Will he remember her? Recognize her even as a friend? She left without even saying goodbye, isn't he angry? There are lots of questions in her mind. Questions that she don't want to hear the answers. After ten long years, everything has changed. She changed. One rainy Monday, their paths crossed again. She didn't know what to do or what to feel. She doesn't even understand. Of all places, why in her workplace? Is fate teasing her? She was caught off-guard, she doesn't even know how to behave. She tried to be as cool as possible and deal with the moment. Unexpectedly, all her questions were gone. Some were answered, while some are left unsaid. The only question left is that: is the feeling still there? If it is, then what she will do this time? Will she let him know? or will she try to ignore and stop it again? How is he and Jade doing? She doesn't want to think anymore. Past is past. She already moved on. Well, she's not sure. Her love was tested by time, tested by pain. Did she endure and moved on or she already gave up? Whatever it is, is there a happy ending this time? Did she meet him again just to get hurt for the nth time? Or did they meet again for another reason? Will he love h
