On the busy final days of our college, I can clearly remember how we never took a photo together, maybe because I was busy with my girlfriends and he had his. Ā Perhaps it was Cupid who played with his magical bow and arrow that struck both our hearts in the most unexpected time. Ā I donāt know when we started falling in love. It just sparked out of nowhere, I guess. Ha-ha I really canāt believe it when the guy with those dimples first asked me if he could court me because I was the total opposite of his crush. Like Iām not that pretty and Iām kind of a chubby girl, letās just say Iām a ācute potatoā aww ha-ha-ha. And can you believe it? It took him 4 long years before he asked me out. Ha-ha-ha-ha we were good friends back then, we shared a lot of memories together that I surely cherish and it never occurred to me that this so called love will come find us.
Love; noun (1) strong affection for another arising out of kinship or personal ties (2) attraction based on sexual desire: affection and tenderness felt by lovers (3) affection based on admiration, benevolence, or common interests, as Merriam Webster defines it. Itās funny how we never had the time to spare for that. I had always been captivated how two people fall in love. I witnessed a lot of relationships for the past years by my friendās current and past relationships and I can surely say that being in a relationship is not that easy as it sounds. I had this one friend who had a boyfriend and she always had the perks for it. Every month-sary she would receive a banquet of flowers and a new bag. Sometimes her boyfriend would fetch her after our duty in the hospital and sometimes brings her food. I thought so that itās nice having someone, however I often find myself comforting my friend as she have arguments with her boyfriend and when the relationship was about to end. It opened my mind how love brings happiness but as well as pain
After graduation we said our goodbyes and head start for the future. Boards were coming up so we both got knocked up by reading our notes way back from 1st years, spent the summer listening again to reviewers for 8 long hours 5x a week, answering nerve -cracking pre-boards and studying some more at home. We were apart for like the whole summer of ā13, he was reviewing out of town that is like one and a half hour bus ride from our town where I stayed, no communications were made and I didnāt even expected this to happen. I guess love always finds a way.
A day before the board examination, the ābarkadaā planned on visiting the university which we will be having the examination. For the first time again after 2 long months of not hearing and seeing with each other we meet again. I guess he quite became so much good looking than the last time I saw that guy with those dimples and in the back of my mind I really think that he was appealing but again we were just friends. The ābarkadaā had sometime wandering around the huge university, talked, laughed and took a lot of pictures together. After sometime we bayed goodbye and said our good luckās and God bless to everyone.
(So letās just skip to the part where we took the exam and I can say; the exam was too damn hard and I was like going too puked already).
After a monthās notice July 8, 2013 most of the ābarkadaā passed the Boards (we took the Nursing Licensure Examination June 2013) with Godās wisdom and guidance. And that was the day I cried for the whole day literally like my tears just came out of nowhere that I couldnāt stop it, I was super overwhelmed that I passed because it was a tough exam. Everything was starting to fall into places, my family is now stable and thankfully healthy, and my career is starting to progress but wait, how about my love life? Ha-ha
Then it all started, I fell in love to the most unexpected person at a much unexpected time, I fell in love with the guy with those dimples. After we passed the board, the barkada planned on processing our papers together out of town and have some time to chill, stroll down at the malls and maybe watch at the cinema. We planned on a day or two out of town trip, so we kind of like carried bags around. Now the bus has two seats so I had to pick someone to sit beside. I planned on asking one of my girlfriends but we all had a hard time trying to figure out whoās going to sit beside who, so we decided on picking papers with our names written on it. Out in the midst of the confusion the guy with those dimples uttered out that he wants to sit beside me. Everyone had no interest with what he said and we already decided on picking papers so he might as well pick. Luckily he picked my name and I guess it all started there.
The bus rides should be fun right? I was chatty to him because I am plainly comfortable having him around. We enjoyed each otherās company and he makes me laugh with his corny jokes, we listened to his playlist and even watched a Thai movie entitled āSuckseedā, the movie was very funny. I was the one who suggested watching that movie because I strongly believe that he may relate to it.
