The Story For Her

The picture is not about perfection. Not about the well furnished love story. Not about the usual see-each-other romance. It's more of a peculiar love. A love that has been just clunging to one single hope: the hope of seeing each other in the future...

She was a typical girl. She's now 19. She loves the camera and she loves Friendster. Some of her friends call her "Miss Independent" for she already knows how to work and juggle between her studies and her job. She was never seen with other guys. Infact, they never see her date others for about years now. But one thing odd about her is that she looks on her phone with love. As if she's talking to someone she dearly treasure.

He was an artistic boy. Someone that can capture a girl's heart with just one smile. The guy who knows he is gifted and uses it. He was well-known and a bit well-off. He loves Death Note, he's taking up Psychology and he's an intelligent student. He isn't seen with other girls too. Despite his physical charisma, he's not a playboy. And the girl he ardently loves can only be found in the device in his pocket.

Theirs is an impossible love, others say. How could a couple like that face so many challenges and then stand to be the winner in the end? How could a couple not seeing each other can assure their love that their loyalty is intact.

It all started with one bizarre admiration. She loved him but he is committed. She wanted him to be hers but he has someone else. So she kept her limitations for herself. She is very hopeful that one day, he would fall for her too. "Call me desperate," she said "I dont care. This will make me happy..."

So she pressed forward. She did all she can to communicate with this guy. She texted with him. They became good friends. They share their problems with each other, they console each other in times of depression and they compliment each other. Then, she became so scared for she realized one thing : she was madly in love with him. She confessed that to him; told him that she has feelings for him; shaking off all her inhibitions and caring not if he rejected her. But despite all doubts and fears, her dreamboy stated words that has brought a sudden delicious delight in her heart. "I am committed but you know what, just a lil bit more, I'll be falling in love with you too..."

That brought her hope. Enough hope to feed her "craziness" like what other people say. She was excited about their everyday convos, ecstatic about their "sweetness". But there was one problem. BIG PROBLEM. The girlfriend. And don't get this spirited girl wrong. She even crossed the most tabboed line: fighting with her dreamboy's girlfriend...

The girlfriend seemed to be really irritated with this girl who had been bugging her boyfriend for many months now. Plus the fact that the guy whom she onced called "Exclusively Mine" is starting to drift away. ANd she's starting to see the signs of "Mutual Understanding" between the two people involved. She just let all these things go. But the last straw came when she saw that the girl's Friendster Default Picture is the photo of her boyfriend! She was fumed. She won't just let the indescretion happen and fool her in front of her eyes. So she decided to talk with the girl.

The girl and the girlfriend exchanged harsh words and accusations that triggered the girlfriends defenses to report the incident to her boyfriend. Of course, the boyfriend was angered. Never did he expect that the girl whom he's starting to like had cause the tears in his girlfriends eyes. So, he resolved the problem by telling the girl that he just can't take that the two girls are fighting over him and would cause so much trouble. So he told the girl that she should stop texting him for all things to be well. Those words sent a chill, the coldest chill, in her heart. She was badly hurt.

Due to that, she decided to stop her craziness. She was crazily in love and it's hard to let go of a hope. But she has a stubborn heart. It was still hoping. Her ears keep hearing his words "If this would all be fixed, and if you can still wait, I'll be coming for you..." But that was in the past. She won't rejoice with words that faded on air. She must move on.

She made herself busy. She decided to see other guys. She made some deals for herself too. She struggled hard not to text him. She completely lose all the communication with him when he changed his phone number...

She thought that she already succeeded with the ordeal. But then, out of the bluest blue, in the month of January, SOMEONE texted her. Asking her if she's still waiting for him, if she's still welcoming him, and if she still loves him. She wondered who was the mystery guy. Imagine her thrill when she knew that it was him. He went back. He fulfilled his promise. She was exhilirated!

That was the beginning of their own love story. They commit their selves to each other. She owns him, he owns her. The idea was enough to make her happy.

They were not exempted from having trials and for having haters. They struggled to keep their love alive despite what others may tell them. They were once parted because of a rumor that had been proven a lie. They are still together.

And they are still counting more more more days until the day that they'll finally meet each other. That beautiful day when they can have their one great wish fulfilled: be together.
