I remember the nights were we used to watch above the sky and do some skyscraping.
You did held my hand like a tree that was about to fall before your dear doe eyes.
I felt something magical..
Magnetic, perhaps..
You took me outside as you latched and intertwined your hand with mine.
"By the way," You began. I stared at you, your eyes twinkling with the night skies above.
"Do you know what time is it?" You asked me as I furrowed my eyebrows.
You only smiled at me and chuckled.
"Silly. You still didn't know how to calculate and read the time?" You mocked at me like a Math professor at a university where I used to study. I only shrugged coz how would I know about that thing, right?
"Try to look and check your phone, baby." You instructed as I hurriedly looked at the time on my lock screen with your message indicated.

11:11 to my one and only girlfriend. I'm so lucky that I am able to call you mine. I love you so much, truly. I hope you know that. You're the best thing I ever had in my whole life. I'm so blessed that I got the best girlfriend that I truly deserved. Happy Anniversary baby. The next anniversary that we'll get to celebrate soon, I'll put a ring on your right finger.
Thank you for saying yes to me baby. Thank you for letting me in and for saving you through the darkest times of your life. xo.
I only smiled after looking at your sweet message that you had typed awhile ago. Funny how you still make me feel so giddy tonight.
"Did you like it?" You asked me as I hummed while hugging you. You kissed my forehead as a response.
So far, this has been the best 11:11 experience that I ever had.
Baby, you're my everything, you're all I ever wanted.
You're the best I ever had.
