Preface
Virginia Woolf: Yet it is in our idleness, in our dreams, that the submerged truth sometimes comes to the top.
All our lives, we had different ideas and moral values, which in the end were somehow on the same parallel and became ultimately intertwined.
We were raised by loving families into different backgrounds, in completely opposite social classes, and yet we ended up here in this place and at this fateful time, together.
We don't make the ideal romantic couple you find in fairy tales or Olde English novels. I was always a girl of few words with an inability to express myself, and he is a young man changed by circumstances beyond his control with a greater ability to see through and past any mere mortal flaws.
He raised his eyes to meet mine and as I walked forward to meet him with an effervescent smile, I thought to myself what a miracle it is that we met at all. He sees me for who I am when I am with him and who I have the potential to be on my own. Fate sealed us being together. After all, I am just a frail, young girl who has not yet discovered the real me.
This is our story.
