"Bale nagsimula lahat ng 'to nung lockdown, around 2020-2021. Ang hirap ng lahat at wala akong maisip na paraan to connect noon sa aking "special classmate". Dahil desperado na rin ako, sinubukan ko na lang ding magbasa, na isa sa mga pinaka-paborito niyang gawin.
Sumubok din akong magsulat dahil paborito niya rin 'yon. Nakapagsulat ako ng ilang mga kuwento pero lahat din 'yon ini-scrap ko. Sinabi ko sa sarili ko na mas masaya akong makakapagsulat kapag sabay kaming gagawa ng sarili naming kuwento.
Fast-forward tayo after 4 years, nag-decide kaming gawin ni special classmate, na ngayon ay girlfriend ko na, itong story na 'to as bonding naming dalawa. ^___^"

"Morning of May 7, a few minutes before the clock strikes 9:00: I woke up with a message from him where he said na gumising ako agad. He sent a picture of a book cover with a title "Highlander's Odyssey", and our Wattpad usernames at the bottom. He sent that message around 1 A.M. and obviously, tulog na ako that time.
That was Tuesday, and we had an online class scheduled at 9:30. I got preoccupied dahil bagong gising and I only had 30 minutes left to prepare breakfast and prepare myself for the class, pero I had that book cover at the back of my mind pa rin. May 8 was a busy day for me, so we got to talk about that book cover 2 days after which is May 9, our 13th monthsary.
It was his surprise and "kind of" help na rin sa nangangalawang kong kamay sa pagsusulat. Palagi kong sinasabi sa kaniya na nahihirapan na ako magsulat dahil nawawala na 'yung writing skills ko. Siguro dahil na rin sa ang tagal ko nang naka-hiatus sa pagsusulat ng ganitong mga storya. Matagal niya na pala 'tong pina-plano at dine-"delulu", simula pa pandemic, na makapag-collab writing kami sa isang kuwento.
And this is it!
To make his wish (and mine din of course) come true, we are writing this story. I believe that this story will also be a big part of us. So I hope that anyone who'll read this gets inspired with what we'll write. ( ◜‿◝ )♡"
