Joey met Anna in a gathering of friends. Anna seems to be a nice lady and therefore Joey liked her so much. They became close during that night and they were even awarded as the new couple of the night. From then on, they became inseparable in school. They became the best of friends until they fell in love with each other. Anna is so happy to have Joey in her life. Joey is her inspiration in her studies and in everything she does. Her family has met Joey and she has met his family too. Everything went well in their studies and they both achieved what they wanted in life. Joey found a job in his hometown and Anna continued to pursue her dream in the university. They constantly communicated with each other through e-mails and text messages. In his hometown, Joey met a girl named Marie, who happens to live in the neighbourhood. Marie is a teacher by profession. She teaches in a school where Joey's siblings study. One day Marie was waiting for a ride when Joey saw her. As Joey has a car, he offered a ride to Marie. They chatted along the way to Marie's school. This happened almost everyday until Joey felt he was falling for Marie. Anna, on the other hand, continues to send messages to Joey but sometimes Joey forgets to read her messages. He was so preoccupied with Marie until he forgot about his relationship with Anna. Because Anna loves Joey so much, she decided to surprise and visit him. She wanted to know why is he ignoring her messages. When she arrived at Joey's house, she saw Marie sat with Joey. She was the one surprised as she did not expect what she saw. Joey stood up and introduced the two ladies. Marie decided to leave as she felt uncomfortable with Anna. Anna cried and asked Joey why did he do that to her. Joey cannot find a decent word to explain. All he could utter was "I don't know, it just happened. I'm sorry." Anna went home crying. She wanted to tell Joey she still loves him despite of all that he's done to her. Anna finished school and she found a job near Joey's hometown. She stayed in an apartment with a couple of girls. Surprisingly, Joey came to visit her and their love rekindled. She was happy again and she did not bother to ask about Marie. Marie, on the other hand, heard all about this and she confronted Joey. Joey said sorry admitting he loves them both. Marie also loves Joey so much so she decided to keep their love with Anna on the ratio. Anna seems to agree with this situation as well so the love triangle began.
Anna is the soft hearted one while Marie is the tough one. Whenever Marie encounters Anna, she says nasty things to Anna. Anna just ignores her because of her love to Joey. This went on and on and on. Until one day, Anna saw Joey's cousin who told her that Joey and Marie are getting married. She also learned that Marie is pregnant. Anna got frozen and couldn't say a word by that news. She went home and started to think why has Joey hurt her again. She thought life must go on and maybe she'll meet another guy in the future...a guy who would love her sincerely. After their marriage, Joey and Marie transferred to another town and lived there. Anna has already adjusted with her new life as a single woman. She got promoted in her job and met a guy. This guy, named Ben, is a newly hired engineer in the company where Anna works. They started to go out until they both admitted they love each other. After five months of being together, Ben and Anna got married and they were gifted with three kids. They live happy and comfortably. One day, Anna went to the grocery and she saw Joey inside. They were happy seeing each other again after about ten years. Anna felt differently and so with Joey. That encounter they had was odd. They felt love again...the same feeling as before. The untold love story started.
Joey and Anna went on to see each other without the knowledge of their families. They learned to tell lies, make up stories just to meet up and satisfy their love for each other. So their love story continued even though they were both married. Meanwhile, Marie and Ben don't have any idea of what's happening with Joey and Anna. The two were living in sin. Their love is going deeper and deeper they wanted to go away and leave their families. One day, Joey decided to go abroad. He left his family and Anna. Anna started to process her papers so she could follow Joey. Their plan was to start all over again with just the two of them. They communicated with each other constantly stating their sincerity and pure love for each other. Joey's family don't have a clue about the plan and so with Anna's family. As the days come nearer for Anna to follow Joey, something happened. Anna suffered a massive stroke and later died. Joey learned about the sad news when he had an FB messenger chat with one of their common friends. Joey felt like the whole world disappeared. He thought that maybe God planned about all these. That HE took Anna away from him so that he will not continue to live in sin, that both of them have their own families to live with. Joey did not see Anna for the last time until she was buried. After a few years, Joey came home for a vacation to visit his own family. This time he was so glad and thankful to God that HE guided him all through out. Joey and his whole family went to church and offered a Thanksgiving mass to appreciate all the blessings that God poured out to them. Joey did not hear about Anna's family but he is sure that they are also happy. Joey and Anna's love story was not known to anybody even after Anna's death...hence, The Untold Love Story
