Prologue

Ano nga ba ang love?

Sabi nila, love is blind, love is trust, love is sacrifice. Basta ang daming definition! Nabibigyan nila ng kahulugan ang salitang ‘love’ dahil sa mga experiences na mayroon sila tungkol dito. Kahit nga ang mga NBSB kapag tinanong kung ano nga ba ‘yan ay ang daming sagot eh, ‘yung tipong may pinanghuhugutan lang.

Ngunit kung ako ang tatanungin kung ano nga ba ang ‘love’, ito ang sagot ko:

As for me, love is something unexpected.

I met this love at the wrong place, at the wrong time. I never expected to encounter this.

I loved a man who doesn’t even know his identity.

I loved this man even though I don’t know him.

I still loved him even though I know myself that time would come that he’ll leave me.

I still loved him even though I know myself that someone might have owned his heart from the very beginning.

Is it possible to feel this way? To feel that I’m stupid because I loved him? Is love stupid then?

Nah. I don’t think so.



I am Jasmine Erika Flores, 23, and this is my story.


No, scratch that.




This is a story about love that changed my life, forever.


This is ‘our’ story.
