Reckoning Day

We have spark. We've been friends since 2008, the best year of my life. And now, we're more than just friends. I just dated her awhile ago and asked her if we could now be more than just that. It took a while. Some strolling down the 2 malls in North Avenue and a dinner date at a restaurant before she finally said "yes."

So far, this is one of the happiest days of my life. She isn't exactly what I'm looking for. I've been an idealistic person for a long time. Looking for the right girl is difficult. I want a perfect woman. But God changed the way I look at her. Despite her imperfections, I always have a great time whenever I'm with her. And so, for a long time, I finally decided to ask her if she could be "the one."

Within just few hours, she answered in the affirmative. I feel so lucky because it did not take a long while. I now imagine myself living with her in her provincial home in beach-side Miag-ao, Iloilo. I've always longed for marrying someone from the Visayas. For me, those central Philippine isles are lovely and worth visiting.

She's more on the exotic side. The best thing about her is her perseverance. And apart from that, I know she's gonna love me back.

And now, this is the reckoning day. I may not be lucky academically these past few years. But I am pretty lucky now when it comes to love. I no longer feel there's an empty space in my heart. Someone's filling it up for me. And that is Kim.
