~Matt~I brought Aoife to my place. It was hard for her to walk, so I had to pick her up to bring her to the couch.“Aoife, are you okay?” She looked bad. Her swollen eyes and makeup were all over her face. “No. I am not, Matt,” she replied while walking towards the bathroom.I tensed from seeing her like this and called Neeral.“Hey, thank you so much. But can I ask why you allowed her to drink this much?” Neeral sighed. “Matt, I came here with Victor. He is my cousin. I found her drunk and tried to stop her, but she wasn’t listening. I think something's bothering her. She was saying something about Xander. I didn’t understand, but I am sure something happened between them. She was upset, and Victor tried to take advantage of her. I am sorry.”I could hear her voice was filled with pain. Rejection from me was still fresh in her heart. She told me Victor slapped her also for calling me. He left her alone in the pub.I looked toward the bathroom and heard a thud from inside.“Thank y

~Matt~Aoife was sleeping while I looked at her, assuring her protection from Xander. My eyes become wet while caressing her cheeks. She feared Xander, and somehow, I knew it was my fault to let Aoife get close to the man who would never understand a pure heart like hers.“It’s all my fault, Aoife. Because of me, you are enduring this pain.”I remembered the day I saw her for the first time. The way she lied to me that she fell on the stairs. I knew Zareena had hurt her.Her simplicity made me fall in love with her instantly.Later, when she opened up with me, I found myself lucky to find a pure girl like her. I was about to open my heart when I saw Xander’s attitude change in Aoife’s presence. Aoife was changing Xander, and it was a good sign, so I sacrificed my love for Xander. All to give him a chance to find true love. Xander deserved that chance.I was okay to stay in that friend zone only for Xander to become a better person and let him explore his feelings.I suppressed my feeli

~Xander~I opened the door of her room and quietly waited for her to come home. I followed her from her dinner and listened to everything they talked about while sitting at the bar.I was two bottles down, drowned in the sorrows.How easily she forgets me. Yesterday she ran from my place and didn’t give me a chance to explain myself. I felt horrible when I saw her crying, but she was behaving as if nothing had happened. Does that mean whatever happened yesterday was nothing to her? My love was nothing for her. The most painful moment I remember that pulled at my heart when I saw her hiding behind Matt. When the hell did Matt come in between us? Why are there so many misunderstandings, Aoife?I waited for her to come to her room, because I wanted us to be alone.I could hear her approach with careful steps.“Hello?” She turned on the light and entered the room. “Xander, what are you doing here?” I came to get my answers, Aoife.“So, how was your dinner with Taylor?”I thought to keep

~Aoife~Heartbreak comes in waves. Slowly, it will pull you into the sea, and you will never know when the ground under your feet is swept away. They come at such random moments, replacing a feeling of normalcy with familiar tears. Yet, in time, those waves lessen and let the good memories flood back in.Sitting on the floor, I cried and smiled for the moments we spent together after Matt left this place.It was understood he would never see me again. How could I expect him to? He was hurt, and I was the reason. From the beginning of our relationship, he carried this burden in his heart. It was difficult for him to let Xander pursue his love for me. Today, when he poured out his heart, I crushed it into small pieces.At this moment, I wish death upon myself. I am not a good person, and I hurt people who loved me. I didn’t know when my sobbing turned into a slumber before a familiar voice woke me up.“Aoife, wake up, dear,” Aunt Agnes lightly shook me.Her husband brought water for me

~Aoife~I stood there, baffled, and confused. I fluttered my eyes a few times to clear my vision because I didn’t believe what I was seeing. Zareena and Xander were exchanging rings with each other.I came to my senses when people around me started clapping.“Congratulations!”“Yeah, Zarenna,” they cheered.People who started to gather around them pushed me aside. My body’s senses were dead. Everyone shouts, and the thunder of clapping suppressed my sobs. He lip-locked her in front of me and my heart dropped. I lost him. I lost my love. That was the only thing I felt at that moment.“Xander,” I whispered as I grabbed my chest.Suddenly Neeral ran up behind me and grabbed my numb body, and I lost my energy to stand appropriately.“Aoife... Oh my gosh,” she cried for me while looking at him.She wanted to go to talk to him, but I grabbed her hand.“No,” I whispered.“But Aoife—”“First, I lost my friend, and today… I lost my love.” Tears blurred my eyesight, straightening myself. “L

~Xander~As I settle into the taxi, gentle strains of a soothing melody brush against my ears, immediately capturing my attention. The music shifts me through memories of someone special, and with each note, my heart crumbles, painfully reminding me that I am not fortunate enough to celebrate this day of love.“Will you please lower the volume?” I exhale, hoping to dampen the waves of emotion that threaten to consume me.The taxi driver gazes at me through the rearview mirror, a flicker of amusement in his eyes. “Come on, man, it’s Valentine’s Day,” he muses as if encouraging me to embrace the atmosphere.I can no longer contain my frustration. “I don’t do Valentine’s,” I exclaim, my voice filled with a mixture of sadness and defiance. The taxi driver rolls his eyes, clearly unimpressed by my sentiment. “Then you better start.”It’s as if he’s challenging me to change my perspective.Today is Valentine’s Day, and as the taxi carries me towards my destination. I take a moment to observ

~Xander~After grabbing the white bouquet, I took a glance at my Rolex. I still had time to reach Arix Textiles. It was five minutes from my current location, so I decided to walk from the map directions in the blue line marked on my phone.The wind stroked my hair as it felt the aroma of San Francisco telling me something I wasn’t sure of yet. The warmth of this city has something special. I know it’s famous for its Golden Gate Bridge, cable cars, the former Alcatraz Federal Penitentiary, Fisherman’s Wharf, and its Chinatown district. But today, I feel something different inside. A stranger told me something I have wanted to hear for a long time. Then a small boy touched my heart in ways that had never happened before.Although I like to play with my nephew, this was something special. I don’t complain—not a single time—after I met him.I refreshed the G****e Maps page, and finally, I reached my destination. It’s a tall building constructed mainly with glass with a cornerstone engrave

~Xander~As Brandon introduced himself to me, I noticed a furrowed brow and a scrunch of his face, as if he were trying to recall where he had seen me before.“Xander,” he exclaimed, patting our handshake with his other hand. “Brandon from middle school?” I blurted out, my words muddled in confusion.Indeed, Brandon and I were friends back in middle school. However, when his father’s business relocated, he moved away from our hometown and ended up in San Francisco.“It’s nice to see you again. It’s been a long time, hasn’t it?” he said, pulling me into a warm embrace.Aoife observed our interaction, her professional demeanor momentarily resembling that of friends casually catching up. “Yeah, what happened to your braces?” I playfully tease, bringing up memories of his middle school days. We shared a chuckle, settling comfortably into Brandon’s office.Aoife followed us inside, her presence a constant reminder of the professional context of our meeting.“I didn’t realize Raphael was y

~Aoife~It’s a beautiful day. The three of us went to a carnival near Chinatown. It’s not only Valentine’s Day but also the Chinese New Year. We wanted to surprise our nanny, who is of Chinese origin. She’s a wonderful woman, and I consider her one of my strongest supports.Living in San Francisco, I feel fortunate to experience the richness of different cultures; Chinese, Indian, Mexican, and more. We entered the carnival together and indulged in some delicious Chinese dishes like mooncakes, dumplings, and spring rolls. Alex was overjoyed. I never wanted him to feel the absence of a father, although he once asked me about his dad, and I wasn’t sure how to explain it. It was a painful question for me, but I answered him with a smile. “You can choose anyone you like as your dad.”It started as a joke, but he took it seriously. From that moment on, he picked different actors, sports figures, and anyone he admired, as his dad. Today, he chose the great Jackie Chan.“Mom, I love Chinese f
