A love story

I’ll be sharing a love story of my friend Rafael, where he found happiness in the end. This is rare because in the end, his happiness was seeing Marie happy with someone else. It may be sad, but for Rafael, it was something he always wanted for her, even if it’s not with him.

Rafael met Marie in his junior years in high school while Marie was already in her senior year. So, their story started when Rafael’s friend, Jessie had a fight with one of Marie’s friends, Cynthia. When Cynthia and Jessie had a confrontation, Rafael then spotted Marie. He liked Marie for being a strong young lady, after the confrontation everything was fixed then Rafael saved a lot of guts to ask Marie’s number. To fast forward everything, they were together for 5 years. When, one day Rafael was confused. He broke up with Marie and hooked up with other women, Marie was depressed. She made an effort to win Rafael back, but Rafael didn’t want it since his mind was closed and he was already scared of being hurt again and again with Marie’s ways. (Marie, was kind a really a tough girl that she applied this toughness in their relationship) Anyway, he was scared and believed it would be a mistake that they’ll be back together again. Months passed, and Marie met someone else, he treated Marie well. He was in love with Marie and in few weeks time, they were already together.

When Rafael found out about it, he was in deep pain and asked his friends advice. Most of them would say “forget about her and move on” but he couldn’t do it. He knew he’ll regret the day he let go of the only girl who knows how to love him right, but he has to do it knowing he can prevent Marie of failing with him.

Today, Rafael called me and told me how happy he was when Marie went to his place and rode together with his wheels. He was happy because nothing happen to them literally, and they enjoyed the day together while singing the song “Love story” by Taylor Swift. He said it was the sweetest day of his life, had a rode trip, eating foods and singing the song they both love.

He was happy because one way or another, God gave him a chance to spend a day with the one he loves even if they’re not together and Marie is already with someone else. He cherished it and had a happy closure with his ex-Marie.
