David and Miz first met in college back in 2014—David was the irregular upperclassman, and Miz was the curious freshman. They shared a few classes and one memorable ramen date before the semester ended. David talked about everything under the sun, while Miz quietly admired his long lashes. Life went on, Miz transferred schools, and they lost touch—until 2018, when David began his random check-ins. Fast forward to 2024, Miz saw his stories online and thought, “What if we’re meant to be? That would be such a plot twist!” Weeks later, David messaged saying he’d be visiting the Philippines. They met for ramen again—Miz said it was her treat, but David never let her pay. The next day, they met once more before his flight, shared breakfast, stories, and a warm goodbye hug. Then came silence. Until October 2024, when David suddenly asked to see more photos of Miz. She joked, “Only if you subscribe!” The next day, flowers arrived. And just like that, after 10 years, their story finally began. Miz, a proud mom of a then 2-year-old, had long closed old chapters before opening this new one—with David. David loved Papito from the start and even asked him to call him Daddy before Miz could say I love you too.
