Ice Princess

Epilogue

Surprise surprise people, this is the last chapter :))

It was never my intention to fall in love again.

When Andrew died, I never thought that I can love any other man again.

I invested so much in our relationship that when he left he took everything with him leaving me with nothing.

I was almost as cold as ice when Andy came and tried to break the ice walls I built around me. He reminded me of Andrew. They have a lot of things in common. He made me feel alive again. It was like my whole body starts to function again and my heart starts pumping.

In that few months that I got to know him, I was able to find the Ria Henares who was lost for a long. I rembered how it feels to love and to be hurt.

My whole world shattered when I found out he betrayed me for a silly bet. I trusted him with my whole being and he chose to break me.

When once again I was broken, he was still there to mend me. Everytime the men I love hurts me, it was always stephen who picks up the pieces.

Little by little, I learned to love the person who loved me wholeheartedly. I learned a lot from him. I learned lessons in life that I can never learn from school. He made me believe in true and everlasting love.

I opened my heart for the third time. Eventhough I still have doubts and other apprehensions, He never fail to prove to me how much he loves and how much he cares for me.

Accepting him in my life is the best decision I ever made. I have never been this happy.

"Penny for your thoughts?" I felt him hug me

"Youre here already? I didnt notice you"

"What were you thinking mahal?" I asked

"You"

"I miss you so much"

"We miss you too mahal" right on cue I heard little footsteps running towards me

"Mommmmmmy!!!"

"Hi baby! How was your trip to your granny?" I asked her.

"It was fun mommy! Tita Ninang Stef and I played dress up with Monique (Stef's daughter)" she then narrated to us her activities today.

Stephen and I graduated years later. We are already married for 10 years now. We already have 2 kids together our first is already 8 years old his name is Marcus and our youngest is Yenyen who is currently 5 years old.

My family is my happiness. I wouldnt trade them for anything this world has to offer.

In the beginning I asked myself, will there be a person brave enough to break the thick layers of ice I built around me. I was more than happy when Stephen bravely barged into my life melting my heart.

Im no longer the Campus Ice Princess because in our kingdom, I am His Queen and that's all that really matters.

I am Caesarea Lynette Henares-Herrera, a daugher, a friend, a wife and a mother and I wouldnt have it any other way.
