love newly found... prologue

Cassandra,

Time slows down when I’m with you and I liked that because I can spend most of it just looking at you, listening to your voice while you sing for me or just simply telling me your stories, and even just having you beside me. You certainly make me happy every single part of the day and when the time comes that we need to be apart I feel so empty, so cold, so alone. I need to be next to you. Feel you. See you.

I remember the day we first met, I was at the park sitting by the bench, looking at people passing by me, while I try to finish a story that I kept on trying to end but I can’t find the correct ending for I don’t really write happy endings, because that’s for fairytales and tragic once are for reality. Then the wind blew hard that made my masterpiece flew away and I was having a hard time collecting them again. I was like a child running after the papers and all kinds of people are laughing at me because of my silliness.

I was in a hurry to go because of humiliation that I didn’t notice that a piece were missing, until you approach me, giving me the last piece of paper, the paper where I should write the story’s ending. You smiled at me as you handed it to me. I looked at you; I was mesmerized by your brown eyes, those eyes that looked at me with concern. And as I reach for the papers on your hand, I accidentally touch your fingers that touch of care. The world suddenly stopped that day and I wished we could stay that way longer.

From that moment I know I could write again, I could write a beautiful ending because at that moment I have found my inspiration. The person I want to be a part of that story, and that is you. From that day you made me whole again, you made me see the world is kind and I should be kind to it also. That not all the time tragic endings are for reality, that the word “and they lived happy ever after” are for realities too and that I thank you for making me realized it. And I’m glad that I listened to you.

You are the one I want to spend the rest of my life with. The one who will be the person I want to grow old with. The person I want to marry, be my wife, the mother of my little juniors, my partner and best friend. The one who will I assist in the journey called life. You are my life, my all. The one whom I’ll be spending forever with and the one that gave me chance to grow be the person I am right now. You are the one that I’ve been waiting for all these years, my true love the one who’s destined to be with me.

I will never get tired of saying these words to you over and over again. And I wanted you to know that I love everything about you and certainly love you till the end of time.

Louie
