Page 96 of Who We Love

“Before we head to the next room, everybody,” I speak loudly enough to interrupt the excited whispers, “I have a present for my husband and wife that I’d like to share.” Taking a seat along with Jacob, I say, “This is for the loves of my life.”

The day you walked into my life.

It was the beginning of the endless tale.

It was the mysterious eyes.

The enigmatic personality that hid who you were.

A tormented soul and a fragile heart.

And so it began.

The untold, unpredictable, unexpected story.

A tale where three hearts collide.

This story didn’t take off the way every story does.

No, we almost missed this big love.

Or our love was missing one more soul.

One more heart.

We needed her sweet, beautiful, broken heart.

And so it began.

The untold, unpredictable, unexpected story.

A tale where three hearts collide.

This love isn’t easy.

But I can promise you both.

That when you fall, I’ll catch you.

When you cry, I’ll dry your tears.

When you’re about to give up.

I’ll fight with you… I’ll fight for you.

And so it began.

The untold, unpredictable, unexpected story.

A tale where three hearts collide.

The road to happiness hasn’t been easy, but there’re no regrets.

If I had to, I’d do it all over again.

Because I know you’ll be on the other side… waiting for me.
