"Action Speaks Louder than Words"
ito ang pinaghahawakan ni Aya simula nung nalaman niya ang kanyang kalagayan. Words aren't her cup of tea since people around her are used to expressing love through actions. It was not until she had her first weird encounter with her long-time crush, Andrei, that she believed in the beauty of words.
She discovered how words could lighten up a person's mood, and how they could lessen the pain they are feeling. She tends to use it in her little ways that make her fall in love with the thought of it. It was her missing piece all along para sa kanya, which made her change her beliefs about words and actions.
But these, too, in the long run, may either make her or break her.
