Upon entering her room, her sister was sitting at the bed waiting for her. Janice felt Amy's sadness over her decision and decided to have a heart to heart talk with her. She asked Amy to sit beside her.
Janice thought it will be best not to get straight to the point at this time. She asked Amy:
"How's the university life?"
Amy replied without enthusiasm: "Ok I guess nothing shocking so far".
Janice: "Any boy you like?"
Amy hesitated but with a smile said: "Well...."
Janice became enthusiastic and said: "Oh my gosh!"
"This is the first time I have seen you smiled like that."
"Tell me about him."
"You need to get him notice you."
Amy just smiled at her.
Janice touching her sister's hair: "I told you to fix your hair properly. A beautiful hair can enhance a girl's look by 50 percent then you only need to worry about the other 50 percent."
Again, Amy just gave her a smile. Janice understood Amy's sadness and said:
"I know that my decision was a shock to the whole family".
"Maybe I was too selfish not to consider your feelings but happiness does not come often into one's life."
"If I didn't take it selfishly, I may not able to experience it."
"You may not approve Ronnie now but try to get to know him and you will understand what I mean."
Amy now teary eyed, said:
"I just feel that you are still young, talented and beautiful to be tied up early. You will still find someone better that you deserve."
"And that....and that it's too early for me to lose you."
Janice hearing these words from Amy started to cry herself.
"You will never lose me. I will always be with you even after marriage."
"I will be with you when you have your first boyfriend, your first kiss, your first love."
"My marriage will never be a reason for us to change our closeness."
"I will be forever your best friend."
Hearing these comforting words from her sister made Amy's heart at ease. Maybe she is the one being selfish and not her sister. Her own self-centeredness made her not realize that her sister have found happiness with Ronnie, a kind of happiness that she needs to discover herself someday.
