and a different love story begins...


i am soooo happy for my best friend, auje.

we started as phone pals in grade 6 then we became classmates in high
school. we met a cute guy in our freshman year. eventually, he got a crush on me and we exchanged love letters since then. my first love letter, as a matter of fact, was from him.auje became our bridge, literally. she sat between us in the classroom and was the "bridge" of our love notes. he and auje were of the same faith and became good friends as well. yeah, just good friends.

auje and i went to UPdil to pursue our beloved dreams. i'm into broadcast communciation, she's into geology. we never stopped communicating even if our respective colleges are kilometers apart. we always found time to catch each other's latest happenings on our love lives, academics, and extra curricular activities. isaw and barbecued gizzard strengthened our bond. auje is the bestest friend i ever have. i appreciate all her efforts to surprise me and send me cute gifts.

when i graduated, i left Manila right away. i left her also. feeling very lonely and abandoned by her "not-so-sweet" bestfriend (peace,auj..), auje sent me a message asking for the available math and physics subjects in UPmin. she planned to cross-register from UPdil. since i have been teaching in UPmin, she thought I knew the answers to her inquiry. i passed her on to reynan, our classmate in high school, who was also tkaing math and physics subjects in his architecture course.

little did i know that that "passing on" would create a wonderful love. at first, i would not believe becasue reynan is known of his uncertainties in dealing with girls while auje has a problem when it comes to commitments..but here they are, very ahppy with each other. technology and years of friendship have made the world smaller. look at their smiles, arent they genuine?

now, i am their bridge. i have been a witness of "their" story and i am sooooooo happy for them. God knows how thnakful i am to have witnessed a love story unravelling naturally.

cheers for both of you!:)
