TW: Threatening/Sensitive words

It was the happiest birthday. I owe them so much. How can I live without them? Funny right? Love is just a four letters but a meaningful meaning, a deep word. Love is love, because in life. We just all know that love is a pain, that if you love someone, you'll get hurt because of love. But for me, love is like accepting yourself, accepting your flaws, everything you're insecure about. If you're gonna ask me if what is love? Maybe I'll answer you in a hurtful but worth it way.

For me, love is pain, you'll risk everything just to achieve love. If you will love someone, you should accept their insecurities, their flaws. Everything they hated the most in their selves. Why? Why accepting their insecurities? Because in that way, they'll realize that they are worth it, in that case. They'll probably achieve the love that they deserved.

"Love? Are you okay? Something's bothering you? You can tell me." Paulo asked while we're walking in Brooklyn bridge.

He fulfill my dream.

Walking in Brooklyn bridge while our hands are intertwined together, seeing the higher buildings in front of us while walking, seeing the beauty of New York City.

I looked at him and smiled. "Nothing, hubby. I'm just happy today." He suddenly smiled, kissing my forehead.

"Happy birthday, baby.."

Thank you for making me happy today, hubby.

I smiled. Nagpatuloy kami sa pagkukwentuhan, at paglalakad. 7pm na nang makauwi kaming dalawa sa hotel room, sobrang saya ko! God knows how much I am thankful and happy today, it feels like that I won in a lottery. Pero higit pa doon ang saya na nararamdaman ko, money is everywhere, but Love and happiness are not. It's in our heart, in our feelings, in life.

"I'm so happy for you, ate." Lianna said, walking towards me. She's the one who taught me how to smile everyday, how to accept my imperfections. She deserved everything.

I hugged her, crying. "I don't how to thank you in everything you did for me. You did nothing but to accept me, to love me." Hinigpitan ko ang pagkakayakap ko sakanya habang umiiyak.

I hear her sobbed, "you're the one who taught me everything, ate Lavigne. You taught me how to fight in every problem, you taught me how to accept everything even it hurts so much. You're the best, ate. I love you." You deserved everything, baby.

"I love you." I kissed her forehead, wiping her tears. Para kaming tanga dito sa kwarto na nag iiyakan, tawa-tawa pa.

I'll keep this memorable day for me as one of my treasures. The best birthday gift, from the above.

"LaYna! Come here!" Pagtawag sa akin ni Elireina na nasa balcony. Nandoon lahat sila, ako nalang naiwan dito sa sala mag isa.

I walk towards them, they're actually looking in the sky. Napatingin tuloy ako. "On the count of three, okay? Ready! One, two, three! Happiest birthday, Lavigne!"
