"People really do wrong decisions when it comes to love. Nagiging matapang, minsan naman ay nagiging duwag. I kept on saying that I love him but I was lack of showing it. I'm incapable of exhibiting my love... and that makes me a coward." - Ania Monasterio "We were two broken souls who accidentally met on that bridge. Maybe our distorted pieces were what made us fit together, just like a puzzle. Hindi ko alam na siya pala ang kakulangan sa buhay ko para tuluyan akong makumplento. She didn't also know that I am the one she has ever wanted and needed to make herself feel complete. We were two broken souls who helped each other to be completed again. She's my soulmate. And so I am to her." - Alas Trajano
