This is my bestfriend Katherin or Kat for short. Pretty, smart, a good daughter, and most of all, a very loyal girlfriend.
I kind of envy her almost perfect life (hey! nothing in this world is perfect so just roll with it). Although there is one happening in her life that rocked her away from her "fairytale-world". But I'll tell you that later.
On the other hand, this is Martin. An arrogant playboy. Let's just say he's very far from the type of guy Kat likes and interacts with.
Now onto the real story!
James was her long-time boyfriend. They were together for a year or so. Then out of the blue, that bastard just broke up with Kat with the reason of not feeling anymore spark or excitement. I swear to God, if it weren't for her warning not to break his face, I would've.
Kat tried to convince him that they can still work it out but he has already made up his mind. This left her shocked and heartbroken. Kat locked herself in her room and starved herself for days. Her family and us- her friends- tried everything just to make her to intake food. The next thing we found out is that she ran away, tired from all the things that was reminding her of James.
She wandered off until she came to a convinience store.There she sat and cried her heart out.
Now, Martin happen to see her. He wondered why she was crying. They were complete strangers, but he talked to her none-the-less.
"Excuse me Miss, why are you crying?" Martin asked her.
With quivering lips and tear-stained cheeks, Kat answered "M-my...long term bo-boyfriend broke-u-up with m-me." before letting out another loud cry.
Martin felt sorry for her, so he sat beside her hoping it would at least comfort her. "Oh it's alright miss. There's still a lot of guys out there for you. By the way, your boyfriend is such an idiot for breaking up with a very beautiful girl." he said to her while stroking here back. Kat can't help but laugh at his attempt to make her feel better. She rolled her eyes.
"What?! It's true!" Martin retorted. Kat felt a bit better. She felt somewhat refreshed. Not wanting to let go of this refreshing feeling, she stayed and chatted with him for a while longer. When she saw it was kind if getting late, she had to say goodbye but not before thanking him.
Kat nudged him slightly " Hey, thanks."
"Anytime. Besides it's not a good feeling to see a beautiful girl cry. They look uglier when they cry." he half joked.
"Haha! Very funny." she stuck her tounge out.
"Alright. Well, I best be going." he smiled. "Here, give me a call if you want to talk to somebody." handing Kat a piece of napkin with his number written on it.
Over time they became good friends which evolved into being bestfriends and then finaly, they fell in love. (Ironically)
Martin didn't strike me as one who's shy in making advances to girls. But he was. It took him months and a lot- when I say 'a lot' I mean a really really whole lot- of encouragent from his friends and me. What? I also grew on him when I saw his efforts with Kat. But of course, Kat was oblivious about these advances.
Finally, after a year or so of being "just friends", during one of their usual outings, he brought her back to the same convinience store where they met. Then and there he asked her the question.
"Kat?" he asked her nervously.
"Yeah?" she responded with curiousity.
"You know we've been friends for a while now..." he trailed off. Can I just say that Martin's being a sissy right now? Anyway, back to the story.
"Uhuh. And your point is?" she teased, still not knowing where this is going.
"Will you be my girlfriend?" Martin said out in a rush. Blusing like a bright red tomato.
"What? I didn't quite get what you said." she said in confusion.
He took a deep breath and said the words more slowly and clearly. "I said, will you, Katherine Marie Jones, be my girlfriend." looking at her with love and complete sincerity.
Kat was shocked of course, but her face drawed out to a sweet, soft, and loving smile.
"Yes." was all she whispered, not being able to . Tears brimming her eyes.
Martin was over the moon at her acceptance. He looked at her as if he was a little boy on Christmas morning unwrapping his presents. Completely blissful. He picked her up and spun her around then put her down slowly.
"You have no idea how much I want to hear that come out of your mouth." he whispered, bringing their faces closer. He wrapped one oh his hands around her nape while looking deeply into her eyes. Martin whispered I love you before closing the gap and connecting his lips with hers, kissing her softly. With that kiss, Kat knew that Martin was "the one". And she couldn't be happier that it was him.
The End.
