Important Lesson I've Learn from Love

Love. When it comes to love, there are many things you can learn. You can learn how to be sweet, thoughtful, passionate, understanding. You learn to be brave, in making difficult decisions in life. Especially you'll know how to learn from your mistakes. I'm going to tell you a story that I have learned and give a great impact and big change in my life. I hope from it, you'll learn something from me.

As all story goes, every story starts with "Once upon a time" but not all story ends with a "happily ever after". Sometimes it's just "The End", and you'll going to start another chapter, another story, just like mine. Once upon a time I fell in love with a guy named Gherome. We were highschool that time. When he started to court me, He was like the man I've ideal with. He was gentleman, sweet caring, every girl ever dreamed of. He was consisted at first until we separated class when we turned on our senior year. He met many people, including my bestfriend. Many days, weeks and months passed, I knew they're becoming close, too close. But because she was my bestfriend and he was my boyfriend, I trusted them not knowing that it's going to be a great mistake. One day I caught them at a sidewalk, walking while they're hands were tied to each other. At first I want to be blind, I want to pretend that I didn't saw how sweet they are. But it never happened, I felt so mad, furious even. And my first ever experience with catfight happen, not to think that I was already a month pregnant that time.

And because I was too inlove with him that time, I was so desperate for him not to leave me, but unfortunately he chose her over me. Month passed they broke up. Around 10 in the evening he called me and told me that he loves me and he wanted me back. And because I love him, I accepted him again. When our parent knew that I'm pregnant they got furious and ask where did they go wrong. I was so sorry and felt so shy to them. Days passed and they decided that I'll live with them. Then things turned upside down. The guy fell in love with was gone. He changed. He became aggressive and he's beating me even if I am pregnant. That became his routine everytime he's in the influence of alcohol or when we're fighting. I can't tell my parents what's happening because I don't want them to be mad at him and I was too scared. Until one time, when I got home from work they saw a bruise in my legs. They got so mad and told him that they don't want to see his face anymore. But because I was hard headed and they love me so much, they accepted him for me and for the sake of our baby, but it was not as warm as they accepted him before.

Accepting him again was my greatest mistake. He became worst. I tried to understand and think that maybe it's my fault why he became like that. But every people has their limits too. I got tired understanding every detail of whats happening in our relationship. I got tired of loving him. I fell out of love. I wanted to get out of our relationship but he don't want to let me go. He even blackmailed me that he'll get our baby once I left him. He'll let me go but he'll get my baby. I got scared. I don't want to be far from my baby. I didn't know what to do.

Then there's this guy who's been my friend. He's always there when I needed someone to talk to. Even when having our past time like playing online games. He never left me. He's always saving me when I'm getting into danger. And one by one, little by little, I know I am falling for him. I know I am falling for JM. One day, I told him what I felt for him. He told me that he feels the same but every time we were happy together he always had the thought of the relationship I had with Gherome. He always tells me that "I don't want to become the reason of your broken family". I told him "what's gonna be broken if it's been already broke?" still he chooses to do the thing he thought was right. He left me hanging. He didn't fight for me, or so just I thought..

One day when I've decided to be brave and put an end to the relationship I had with Gherome. He was there. I was surprised that JM was there. Beside me. He never left me. He fought for me. He told Gherome that he really love me and he will never let me go. Gherome ask him if he's ready for a responsibility because I already have a baby. He held my hand and answered him confidently with a yes. He got so mad and punched JM and made a scene. Our friends brought JM to the clinic but he didn't want to leave me. He thinks that Gherome might hurt me. He thinks of me more than he thinks for himself. I know after what happened, I know I made the right choice to put an end with that wrong kind of relationship with Gherome and begin a new chapter of my life. And now months passed and we have moved on, JM and I are together now, I am with the one who don't give a damn about my past because he's too busy thinking about our future. The one who will keep me safe, love me unconditionally and will never leave me, hopefully..

Maybe our story didn't have a good "Once upon a time" but we'll try our best for us to deserve our "Happily ever after". In life and love, I've learned that you always need be patient, don't rush just relax, if you don't have a love life, maybe it's because God is too busy writing the love story you deserve. Don't envy the love stories you've read or you've watched. It is written by humans, it is scripted. Ours is written by God. It will come. In the right time, right place, right moment, right person in an unexpected way.
