This is probably my favorite love story.

She hated him. He was the typical “mayabang” guy who thought he was good looking, so she thought, but everyone liked him including her friend. Her friend really liked the guy and asked her to act as the “bridge” for both of them. And so she did.

She gave him the letters her friend wrote and told him the things her friend wanted to say. And soon enough they became good and close friends.

And soon friendship became something else but she had a boyfriend at that time. And he did everything to catch the girl’s attention.

There was even one incident wherein the guy planned to surprise her and give her an expensive brand of chocolate only to find out she was having a date with her boyfriend. So he left and said, “Oh eto, nabili ko lang para sa’yo.” I guess he felt, defeated.

But soon, they had to part because the guy was a seminarian. He had to go back to the seminary.

She did not want him to go.

He made the biggest decision of his life.

19 years after, I call this girl my mom and the guy my dad.

Happy 19th anniversary mom and dad! :)
