Our Love Story

Once upon a time in Fort Bonifacio High School, during the colorful celebration of Teacher's Week, the hallways were alive with laughter, handmade posters, and the scent of freshly baked goods brought in by students to honor their mentors. Among the buzz of activity, Arnel walked into Room 215—1ate, as usual, and slightly out of breath.


As he entered, his eyes quickly scanned the room... and stopped.


There she was.


Nicole.


She wasn't like anyone he had met before. Sitting by the window, sunlight catching in her hair, her focus entirely on writing a dedication card for their adviser. There was a calm confidence about her—the kind that didn't demand attention, but drew it anyway.


In that single moment, Arnel felt something shift. A strange warmth, a racing heart, and a nervousness he hadn't known since his first time holding a mic at school assembly. He didn't know her yet—not really—but he felt like he wanted to.


And that's how their story started.
