"We were both young when I first saw you." We were both young when our paths first crossed. She was radiant - sweet, graceful, and full of charm. He was carefree - cute, clumsy, and full of wonder. Just two kids, unaware of what life had in store for them. Yet, in that very moment, something sparked. He was captivated the instant he met her - you could almost call it love at first sight.

“You’re the closest to Heaven that I’ll ever be, and I don’t want to go home right now.” For seven years, life took them on different journeys - he moved to another country, while she stayed behind, growing in the place where they first met. Neither could have imagined that time and distance would someday lead them back to each other. When he finally returned home, fate gave him another chance. The boy once again laid eyes on the girl who had captivated him since they were kids. And when she saw him too, a spark ignited within - her soul seemed to recognize his, as if time and distance had only been preparing them for this moment. What followed was the quiet unfolding of a connection that felt both familiar and new, a love that neither had planned for, yet both felt deeply.

“Don’t you dare let our best memories bring you sorrow.” The boy and girl finally took their chance at love. But in truly knowing another’s soul, one also meets both the light and the shadows within them. With young love comes the tender beauty of discovery, but also the weight of inexperience in facing life’s harsher truths. She was fragile, and he was reckless. In the end, their budding romance faltered, leaving one wounded and both left searching for healing. For a time, they went their separate ways - trying to write new stories, seeking new endings. It seemed as though love had been lost… or perhaps, only waiting to be found again.

“Hold on and hope that we’ll find our way back in the end.” Twelve years passed, and the lives of those two kids had grown and transformed. She turned inward - seeking depth, healing, and spiritual growth. Love came and went, but never in a way that felt lasting or whole. He turned outward - pursuing his career, chasing success, and abandoning the idea of soulmates. Perhaps he even gave up on himself for a time, choosing comfort in distractions over the vulnerability of love. And yet, time has its way of ripening hearts. Both had matured in their own ways, though neither felt entirely complete. Call it fate, call it a second chance, or simply two souls who had always belonged together - one evening, and for the first time in years, they spoke with honesty about their past. It was raw, but it was also peaceful - as if in that moment, they finally understood how to show up for each other in the way they had always needed. They apologized, they held each other, and time felt still. It was simple, but it was real. And in that quiet space, they knew: this was where love truly began again.
