Our love story
First Time We Met
July 6, 2013April is a newly hired developer in the company. Jernon was already employed several months prior. They were both assigned to work on the same project. But cares nothing about each others business. He was her team leader.
Start of Friendship
Around November-December 2013They still haven't become friends after several months despite him being her team lead. He rarely talks and is always reserved. Barely knows other colleagues. He was an untouchable & respected colleague in the company.
On the otherhand, she is the complete opposite. She is noob, loud, honest and outgoing. She immediately reacts to teasing from colleagues. She was their entertainment.
On most days, they were compelled to work overtime due to tight deadlines. That's when they discovered they commute on the same way. So, for her safety, she insisted that they go home together especially when it's late. He agreed but still avoids conversation and has his own world.
To her, he was only a bus seatmate who then later on became her outlet of personal emotions. She did because she knows he won't speak so he won't tell others, he will not judge, nor even give opinion. He'll just stare and listen. Which was what she needed during those time because her brain knows exactly what to do, but her heart is not accepting.
First YES!
May 7, 2014OT became a normal thing because their project is nearing launch, so is their time together. He gave up on guarding and secluding his space against her outgoing personality. He had eventually started doing small replies to conversation.
To which later on, he had mustered the courage to ask if she would allow him to court her. Little did he know, she already likes his company, enjoys their commute conversations and the little bragging right that she's was able to unfold a hidden person inside a tree.
Marriage Proposal
April 12, 2022They were about to have a vacation with her family in cebu for holy week and her birthday. He asked to have a date the day before the flight. She agreed but got a hint because it was a dress-up date and the place is at the opposite direction of the airport. She was happy, excited and confident she would not cry.
They arrived. She thought it'll be just a dinner. Little did she know, he prepared a whole lot of romantic experience.
They were told to stay in the room while they prepare dinner. He went outside to "pay for the balance" as his excuse. He took her phone because his was dead. She got mad because he took a while. The place was big and dead empty. no staff. no other visitors. She had no phone. She can't contact him. She had no idea that they already started.
He arrived said sorry and his excuse was "there was a problem with his credit card" so it took a while to pay them. We were then ask to go to the restaurant.
While walking, She was busy looking for her phone, she thought he already gave him. She then saw a staff holding a phone which looked like hers, taking a video, that is only when she realized.
They arrived to the garden, only to find out the he left the ring in the room. He was so embarrassed he had to ran back. She was left there laughing so hard.
He got back and finally popped the question. She was still laughing but she is tearing up at the same time. She still cannot believe that they will now be taking their relationship to the next level.
Pamamanhikan
August 13-14 2022Immediately at the night of the proposal, She made it known to their families.
They decided that instead of bringing his entire family to her family in the province. They'll just have a getaway to a place that both families haven't been able to visit.
