The House on the Hill

“I love you Maria,” he said. “Do you love me?”

There was a man. His name was Paul. He graduated his college. He lived in a small town. One day, he was seeing birds near the river. Suddenly he saw a beautiful woman. He went up to her. Her name was Maria. She was very rich. She lived in the big house on the hill. Paul loved her, but he was a poor man. He didn’t have any money. They met many times. He made a poem about her. She loved that poem. Then, Paul took her hand and said he loved her. Maria said she loved him too. Paul wanted to marry her, but she said nothing and ran away from him. In the night, the door was knocked. There was a man and a big car. The man told Paul that Maria called him. So he went Maria’s house. It was very big and beautiful. He felt sad because he was too poor. He saw Maria’s mother. She was angry and said that Paul couldn’t marry her daughter because he was poor and Maria would marry another man. He couldn’t believe. He was astonished very much. He couldn’t eat and went outside. One day he found an advertisement about the story competition. “This is my chance!” He said. He worked very hard and got the first prize! He was happy. He went to the company to get his prize. He was asked to work for that company and he said Yes. He worked hard and he loved his work. One day, he heard a news that Maria left her husband and her mother died. He went to the funeral of the old woman. He saw Maria there. She looked sad and beautiful. After the funeral, Paul went Maria’s house to see her. He met her in the house, but she was cold and hard. He no longer loved her.

Paul is so honest person. He loved only one person so long time. But he was betrayed. Love is confusing. It is difficult to understand perfectly for me.
