The human heart can bear many memories; times spent together, pains and hurts, deeds done, and all worth not. The mind might forget, but the heart will always feel it.

Our actions towards people can be disheartening and painful. We often forget that whatever we do have an effect on someone and can’t be overlooked.

I do have issues with my friends at times. It happened a particular day we were exchanging words before throwing my deepest dark secret into my face. I was just shocked that she could bring up an issue I have even forgotten that I ever told her, and it was in the classroom, with those gossip ears and eyes hovering over us like what could happen next.

My classmates ridiculed me because of my secret; it wasn’t so dark after all. I was in love with the school head boy. It didn’t end well as even my juniors laughed at my stupidity forever, wishing for things I know could never happen. I wasn’t the most beautiful girl in the school, after all.

We still made up after everything, but it even affected our friendship. I forgave her, but I will never forget how she made me become a laughing stock among my mates.

It is quite a memory. It has been years, and it still feels so fresh like yesterday. I don’t know why it still hurts, and every memory of it keeps coming back whenever I remember my high school.

The heart never forgets like the mind.
