I’ve watched a lot of movies recently and I have observed a lot of things. One of the things I noticed is when all the love story’s screwed up, the guy or the girl (whoever messes up the relationship thing) takes his or her love interest to the place and time where they had their firsts. Merely reminding of how they started. He takes her to the memory of the first chocolate he gave her, their first date, their first sip of coffee, their first cupcake, their first movie, their first laugh, their first conversation about their exes, their first burger, the first lunch they had, their first picture, their first text message, their first Skype chat, His first “I love you” to her, The first song she sang for him, their first run at a tracking field, their first email message, their first air hockey game, their first word on scrabble, to the place where she was introduced to his best-friend then to his mother, their first ride, their first intimate moment, then be reminded of the first time when they almost broke up because she said she needed space, but the guy refused, the first time she cried for him cause she can’t stand how she feels for him, the first newspaper she bought for him, the first time she didn’t let him go and physically hold him back from going home, the first desert she ordered with him, the first time he said he hope they would last forever, and she just kept silent but on her heart she’s screaming “yes, forever, i hope”, the first time she hugged him, the first quarrel they had in a restaurant cause she’s freaking jealous of his past, the boy’s first declaration that he no longer thinks of his ex, their first street date, their first shopping at the mall, the first time he brought her to the church, the first jeepney ride when she had all smiles, the first time she felt she was truly loved by a man, the first time they played domino, the first magazine he lend her to read, the first massage treat he gave her, his first unlimited fries treat to her, the very first birthday he celebrated with her, and so do her, the first couple shirt they bought, the first month they didn’t see each other, the first time they missed each other so bad, the first time they saw each other again after a month, the first love letter she gave him, the first customized poem she gave him, the first bottle full of messages she gave him as a surprise, the first time they bought a gift for his nephew, the first time she was introduced to his family, their first 100 days and all the firsts therein.
Maybe that’s the reality in life and love, when things get complicated, we go back to basic, being reminded of the firsts — the first moments that we would always happily remember.
So to my readers, what’s your firsts?
Here’s to those who had their firsts and would be happy to share their lasts to the love of their life! ♥
Love and spark, you outta feel on the your first glance of him.
