In my own imagination 4:49 PM.
I just feel very disappointed with a friend of mine. Well, he's also in the entertainment industry. We used to be on very good terms. But now, it seems to be an obvious and opened irony. In the past, when he needed to make a trip to the production house, he would always tag me along and ask me to accompany him. Well, even if i refused to, he would always begged me to. And 9/10 of the times, i went with him. Even if i had nothing to do, i will still tag along with him and wait for him. At that time, he regarded me as somebody of the same status level as him.
But just a couple of months back, when the manager actually hinted to him that she going to bring him up in the industry, arrogance and proudness overwhelmed his conscience. He felt a sudden rise in status. Since that night, he started to ignore my messages and words. I thought that he was busy, so i didn't bother him that much.
One day, there's a commitee meeting at the production house. I was Kind of surprised when he did not call me to accompany him down. He didn't know that i was also in the commitee in another catogory. So he chose to hide it from me. Reason being, he didn't want me to go higher than him and strive. He didn't want to be my inspiration and motivation to work my way up. Meaning, he doesn't want me to know that he is already in commitee, bcos he thinks that when i know about it, i would try to be higher and strive higher than him. But i was again naive and silly and thought that he actually rejected the post.
So i went to attend the meeting
The moment i stepped into the lounge of the production house, i saw him. Sitting on his usual favourite seat. With a new personality penetrating into his body, and that's arrogance. Now, he just see me as somebody lower than him. And felt that it's not worthy and desired to mix with me because nobody wants to bring me up in the industry. So i approached him, i didn't want to confront him in a way that he will know i have realised his arrogant behavior and mentality. So i went up to him as a normal playful crazy boy, and ask him ' wah, today u so gd nv bug me to come down with u' THen, he turned his head towards me, gave me a snobbish grin and walked off. So much as i didn't feel surprised, disappointment actually was filling up my heart. At that point of time, i actually felt that we were walking towards the end of our friendship.
There are many people out there, in this world, who don't appreciate their old friends, those who were really by their side. After they rose to a certain level, they think that they are higher than others and need not put others into considerations anymore. I don't yearn or look forward to any credits, but i want is a simple thing known as gratitute. A rememberance. That's all.
Well, many people always says they won't be like this, but when the time comes, when the urge of human nature is so strong that is constantly telling them that they are higher than others and others are not worthy of his/her company, they are unable to fight this back. Or rather for some, their determination of being a humble person is not that strong.
It's just so plastic. Just too plastic
