Stealing Your Heart

Tawan poured two cups of tea. He placed one in front of Jiang Mohan and drank from the other. After putting the teacup down, he related, “When I was eight, my Grandpa gave me replica pistol. I liked it very much and it became my favorite toy. However, I lost it by accident after some time and couldn’t find it no matter how hard I tried. Until one day, I saw another kid holding it. He too treasured it as his favorite toy. From that moment on, I knew I had lost it and it wasn’t coming back to me. With that realization, I learned how to let go.”

He looked up at Jiang Mohan. “Do you think I should ask the child for the gun back? Or should I just let it go?”

Jiang Mohan’s expression was cool. “If I were you, I would ask the gun which owner it preferred.”

“But I feel that since I’ve lost it, I no longer deserve to own it. What do you think?”

Tawan leaned in, “Why did I lose it? Because I didn’t have the ability to protect it. Hence, it left me.”

“In that case, what made you so sure that the new owner wouldn’t lose it?” Jiang Mohan stared intently at him. “Mr. Thitipoom, can I ask you a question?”

“Go ahead.”

“How long have you owned the gun?”

“Eight till twelve years old. Four years.”

“Four years? If the gun had a soul and feelings, how long do you think it would take to forget its previous owner?” Jiang Mohan looked at Tawan. “Do you know how long I have known my ex-wife?”

Before Tawan could answer, he replied, “I was just nine the first time I met her.”

He had never forgotten the impression he had of her then.
