I meet Lucy when we took our master degree in Sydney in 2009. Since then, we become a friend and shared something in common: Travelling and shopping *grin*
There was many times when I felt lonely and Lucy accompanied me to any places I wanted. One of our favorite secret spot is the La Perouse Beach. We can sit there for hours, talking about many random things. I love how she always gives an attention to my stories. And this friendship went for 3 years.
But we felt something special when we were back in Jakarta. Feeling that I never expected I had. Love. Although at first it was a little confusing when you fall in love with your best friend, but then I thought why don’t I just tell her how I feel and see what things will turn out. Finally, I expressed how I felt about her and we finally dated for the first time on 25th December 2012, on the the night of Christmas.
For me, she is the only person who really cares about me other than my parents. We did fight a lot because of our different traits and preferences and there were a few times when we felt that we couldn’t go any further. But she would approach me with her patience and changed how I think about her and about this relationship.
Life is an adventure they say, but for me, it’s worthless if you don’t have someone to go through your adventure with.
