A Cupid's Tale

       Ever wonder if a cupid get his love?? Every time he lead people to love will he ever get one? All of a sudden I just have the craziest writer's block on what if cupid have his own love. I went to Wikipedia my savior, my angel and my guardian to all my assignment. I found out that cupid did have his own love story. It was with cupid and Psyche from a Latin literature. You can read all about it in Wikipedia and trust me it is a happy ending.

       But I do feel so strong to write about cupid love interest in the 21st century... It all begins like this. On a beautiful Saturday morning, Elizabeth was sitting on the park reading her lecture notes on data software engineering. She was often mocked by her own classmates that she would never succeed as an data software engineering student as she was a girl. All this notes and recap on the lectures notes exhaust her and cause her a massive headache. She laid on the patio near the grass bed of her university. She began to wonder if she could ever find love. She dream about being with the man she love, spending her days with him or even just  a hug from him would cheer her up. Her thoughts were so loud that the cupid overheard it.

      Cupid heard her dreams and her vision that he is obliged to give her a true love. He came down from heaven's gate and flew to her. Upon meeting Elizabeth, cupid was baffled. His one and only love Psyche seem to come back alive. He knew his love towards Psyche will end as he is immortal and Psyche is a mortal who will die due to old age. Something about Elizabeth remind him of Psyche. Cupid knew it was destiny that he saw Elizabeth and it was a permission from Zeus itself to let him have love again.

      Cupid was so scare to meet her. He first transform himself into a hunk and named himself Roy. Roy went to the grass bed. He saw Elizabeth's notes flew. He picked it up and had the courage to go up to Elizabeth and gave the notes back. Elizabeth was stunned by the generosity of a man that she didn't receive for a long time and this boy had her heart pumping so fast in the very first time in her life. That was the first love lock glance both of them had for a long time. The two began as friends then later scaled up to lover. Though there was many time cupid could tell her who he really was, he didn't dare as he scare that he might lose her.

      This went on for many years. Till one day, Elizabeth had the courage to ask cupid for his hand in marriage. Cupid quickly denied it as it was against the rule to marry a mortal. Elizabeth was confuse and she got mad at cupid for saying no to her as they were lover for a long time. Hermit the messenger of god overheard the marriage proposal and told Zeus about it. Zeus becomes furious and he order Cupid to break this relationship. Cupid with a heavy heart broke the relationship with Elizabeth. Elizabeth who was so deep in Cupid's love begin to feel like nothing was worth fighting for in her life. That night she ended her life with a knife to her hand and her wound was stated ROY.

     Cupid being so sad that he also wanted to end his life but he is immortal so he couldn't die. It was a curse to him. He went to Apollos and beg him to go back time and save Elizabeth life. Apollos agree to it with a condition that Elizabeth will never remember him again and Cupid agree to it. Apollos turn back the time when Cupid first saw Elizabeth. Instead of meeting Elizabeth at that patio, Cupid went back to heaven with a heavy heart and told himself that he was a curse for love.
