the love story...

the weekend draws near and a girl sits alone on her bed. She stares at the whitewashed walls in her tiny bedroom and daydreams... sometimes she smiles uncontrollably, sometimes she sheds a tear, sometimes she sighs, sometimes she gets angry. amongst all of the daydreams she has fabricated or not, she cherishes one the most.

she closes her eyes and begins the sweet memory of her and this prince, amazing as he can be, walking through enchanted gardens brimming with romance and grace, sometimes in the heat of the day or the cool of the night. Magic springing everywhere.

light's alighting as they walk past bushes or trees that night, the soft drizzling of the rain kissing their skin and hair as they walk hand in hand. the ambiance accompanied by the breath taking scores of the violinists about.

they find a tree that looks oh so familiar. the green of the leaves all dressed with sparkling ornaments, the trunk of it covered with streamers. they walk over to it and to their surprise they remembered... "This was the tree i first touched those lovely lips with mine..." the prince said. The girl, speechless could only look up to this man she loves and adore. he holds her close to him in such a tender-loving yet strong embrace. she lies her head on his chest and hears the soft thumping of his heart. he bends his head to kiss hers and she looks up with such glee in her eyes. transfixed by the moment, all they could do was to gaze into each others eyes. the girl, feeling the heat of the stare looks away suddenly, face crimson in colour. the young prince gives off a lovely laugh and tilts his head back. he lifts up her head by the chin and looks deep into her eyes, "I love you" he whispers.

deep in her mind she prays to God, thanking Him for blessing her with such a man as he. she finally utters to him in between tears, "My bounty is as boundless as the sea, my love as deep. The more I give thee, the more I have, For both are infinite. If I know what love is, it is because of you."

the prince, amazed at this girls profound words could only smile wide... he moved closer to her, every breath escaping the two of them.

the kiss was one to behold. they felt that time around them stood still, they felt their hearts beating as one, they heard the violins playing them into a trance... and as they ended the kiss, the prince knelt on one knee, "You're the most amazing person i know, you were the one who changed me, the one who taught me what life is and why we should cherish it, without even you doing anything to teach me. All you did was just becoming my girlfriend and my whole life changed. No one else was ever able to do that aside you. And i dont think i'll be able to find someone else. My sweet princess, will you marry me?"
