It had began so long ago.
She'd been sixteen when finally the years of childhood crushes and experimental pecks of kisses had ended as a new chapter had begun back then.
Gilbert had asked her out, and it wouldn't be long before children and their marriage would come.
They'd been nineteen when they'd finally tied the knot which many had expected even when they were younger.
College would come before Gilbert lost interest and barely kept his grades up to graduate though his wife had pulled through and graduated with honors.
Gilbert began working at an important factory nearby, and she began first to teach to the younger children in the town though she was pregnant when she finally began teaching.
Her husband had become the most excited father to ever grace the earth then as he gushed about the child growing in his wife's womb.
The town grew ever infatuated with their love yet again though years would tick by, and eventually Elizabeta would retire long after all of their kids had left the roost.
She would not stay retired for more than a year when she'd find herself a job teaching anyone self defense.
Elizabeta could not simply cease working, and so in her spare moments, she learned more recipes and kept her garden in tip-top condition while Gilbert who claimed to be too awesome to retire worked at the factory still even when they gave him odd shifts from time to time.
They spent days off together goofing off like they were still kids and even going on dates as well.
Elizabeta had grown to adore a young child who lived next door as she viewed him as another grandson.
He grew up with a crush on her brother-in-law, Ludwig, which the whole town pretty much knew about and found absolutely adorable.
Feliciano would grow up and regularly visit the two that had became like family to him and that managed to be the one part of town that never changed.
Everyone knew Elizabeta and Gilbert and their love story, and everyone seemed to adore the two.
Years however continued to tick by, and Feliciano would grow up, and Ludwig would pass on before the child ever graduated high school though he was still a teen when it happened.
The young Italian pushed on with a brave though heartbroken smile, and a diary full of love letters that had only been read by the writer of them.
Life continued, and so Elizabeta and Gilbert worked and spent their life in the town that they'd loved and grew up in.
They lived for each day of both work and of joy.
Elizabeta and Gilbert both seemed happiest when all of their family was together, and when they'd began to have great grandkids.
Time felt the need to remind them of its passing with new aches and pains though that never seemed to be enough to slow the two down.
Elizabeta refused to let it get ahead of her as she worked a few times a week and took care of her garden in any spare amount of time that she had.
Still, the town would be shaken when those two that had seen the birth of their great grandkids and seen Feli marry a beautiful woman would pass on.
Their mark was left on the town they loved forever to be remembered.
