Love doesn't age part 1: I am Ricky

"My heart may die but my love will live forever"
I have made this vow to my wife unto our wedding day
and until now Im still in love with her..
but I wasn't with her around...because I died...
I am Rick Im a bastard and always drunk,
I fell in love with the most beautiful woman in the world
her name was Laila...I met her in Qatar....

I am 23 at that time and I am hopeless
I graduated and passed my licensure exam but i was nothing
but a stay at home guy...I never looked for a job
I have a girlfriend at that time, her name was Girlie
she worked at a bar as a strip dancer...i would always get here
after she work...she always pays the bill whenever we eat on restaurants
she's also a single mom, she got pregnant with a customer who stalks her

My mother was very cruel to me...its as if I was never really her son
I thought i was an adopted, but i never opened any conversation to them about it
I am different among my sibblings...I never looked like them
One day, my older sister pushed me to get out to my room
and have my own life that Im starting to age and at this time
I should have a job...and so I applied to be a driver in Qatar

I went to the agency office with Girlie...
I was interviewed..

interviewer: "Good morning! Im Laila, what's the job you're applying?"
Ricky: Driver
Laila: I see...but your a Registered Mechanical Engineer
Ricky: I just wanted to have a job...any kind of job
Laila: Well, we have a vacancy for Mechanical agency..I'll refer you to them
Just take this exam, if you passed..we'll give you the sets of requirements that
you have to give to us.

I left with Girlie..but from that day, I cant stop thinking about Laila.

I passed the requirements, and I searched for Laila
but I just learned from their co-worker that she already resigned.

I flew to Qatar, I left Girlie...she promised me and I also promised
to her that we will write each other through letters..

getting inspiration

Ive been broken lately!
is that a good inspiration??
not really for me
I could write and make stories..if I feel happy

and since its valentines day!!!!!!!!
im searching for a particular incident that would
tickle my imagination through and through
to make my butt sit down and write that moment
that will swept off my feet...

Whenever I write I put my speaker off
and headphones ON...and feel only the music and me
and listen to my brain what is telling while it dictates my heart
how would I feel

happy valentines day everybody!!!!
make me inspired by following and commenting on my stories..!^_^

he is my dates

he's yummy

a little evil

but has the most sweet eyes and smile

Music and Destiny part 18 : the end

Minna's Part

in one day I wrote 100 letters to Ivo with it are pictures of me

I surrender myself to the surgery

I told my mom
"If I couldn't make it! give my letters to Ivo once a month"
My mom couldn't help but just nod in agreeing
because she knows im dying

------------------------------------------------------------
Ivo's Part:

Im very happy that my wife is doing fine but year after year
I felt that she's already slipping away with me
one day she wrote me a letter that we have to have divorce
I wrote back to her...I told her I am not going to do that
she wont even answer my call
her mother is also unresponsive...

its been 3 years...I told her im going to see her
I reserved a plane to her country
but I didn't received any reply
I thought she would be excited to see me in the airport or
like came to see me there...

I went to their house and I met her mom
she welcomed me...
she asked me to stay on Mina's room
I asked her where she is!
her mother told me she'll be here anytime soon
so I waited and looked around her room
it was dusty..and its like the things were not used at all
then I saw this box, I opened it! and saw tons of letters
I read them one by one

everything was a lie

until I read the last letter...

"Ivo, I could be gone by this moment! forgive me i didn't tell you the truth

I wasn't strong without you...I should've be with you...the pictures I told you

that I have been to several places were edited...I did all the letters in one day

because I really missed you a lot..and I cant help myself but talk to you through

this letter..Im sorry..I wasted your time waiting for me..im sorry for all the lies

but the part where i  really LOVE YOU is the truth and the best part of my life

you are the most special thing that has ever happened to me, I always dreamed of

being married, and you made it come true, you were my dream and forever it will be

I dont want to stop writing this letter because this will end...and i dont want this to be

the last thing you'll ever heard of me...Life has snatched me away from you

and I needed to disappear for you to move on...4 words you were my destiny"

I arranged the letters, and went out of her room

her mother wasn't there so i went home immediately
my life was empty...I felt like I have broken one of my arm
and I can not function..I grew old...I adopted a beautiful girl
and named her Mina...as I missed her so bad..that I needed someone
to be with and I needed to call her name everyday as I live
I would tell my little mina how her mother sings beautifully
I also read her the letters she gave to me...I hav lived and now
I am exactly near to the end...I cant wait to see her again
Im not afraid to die...because I know I have someone to be with in there
and this time it will be forever
I am Ivo and this is our story...she was my music and I was her destiny.

Music and Destiny part 17: she cant die

Ivo's Part:

I stayed with Mina after the concert

she wasn't my everything now...she became my life

then I saw her..opened her eyes

"Mina! Its Ivo..how are you feeling?"

"I cant feel my body!" she said

"let me call the doctor!" Ivo rushed out of the room

as soon as he came back with the doctor

Mina was already standing and dressed

"Ms Mina I think your'e not yet ready to be discharge in the hospital!" the doctor advised

"I'm okay" Mina said

"Mina! just listen to the doctor!" Ivo added

then the doctor reminded "Mina, I need to talk to you for a second"

"are you having headaches lately?" the doctor assessed

"yes! I though it was from my busy schedule" she answered

"it wasn't" the doctor gave her a serious look

"what is it?" she asked in confusion

"you have a brain tumor and surgery is needed" the doctor informed her

I am married to mina and now i thought of the possibility of me being alone!

she looked at me...with her misty eyes...I cant help myself but cry too

Mina insisted to go home despite of her condition

I talked to her about the surgery but she wanted to go home back to her country

It makes me sad that I cant be with her...but i feel helpless

knowing that im just a planned husband...we fell asleep

I slept beside her in our bedroom...just to make sure she's still breathing and alive

I watched her all night...I thought of not seeing her...so I might spend the night

watching her till everything fades away

but the night just let me sleep....I woke up and then she's gone

she left me a note with her recent photo

I never had so many tears to shed for a woman

and she's the first

I could make my flight right away to her country

but I dont want to spoil her effort getting away from me

I know her...she'll be mad at me

Mina I will always remember!

music and destiny part 16: way to their hearts

I was raved with anguish...
I am so mad that I came home with that frowned face
Ivo went over to sit beside me and had the nerve to ask
"what's wrong with you?"
I looked at him..and i cant utter the words
I dont even know where to start
I keep shooking my head implying "I cant do this anymore"
but he suddenly stroke my hair and touched my cheeks
I feel his tenderness as he told me
"this is part of your dream to be a singer, you have to believe in yourself
not to what others believe they thought it was, look! im here..."

I gulped
as a tear cant wait to run down into my cheek
he wiped it off with his thumb
I felt saved
and for no reason, i felt like its time to give him a hug
I cant say thank you for being there
its just all I have to do is hug him
and it tells it all...

the night was over and i had my first gig in a club where
Ivo's band is performing...Im their opening act

the host introduced me
and as I was called to be on stage
I can already hear the "BOO's" of the audience

The spotlight turned on...and I cant see nothing but darkness
but Im still hearing the boos and words i dont understand
I turned back and saw Ivo
he nodded to me and said "you can do it!"

I handed over the microphone
and started to sing

♫ I am made to sing a song

Ive been 

watching all along

one more step 

I am going on

but I cant live all alone  ♫

♪ I have made my dream come true

but I am nothing

without you

Ive gone so fast

to be in this

is it hard to trust

to me 

I am made to sing a song

but with you

I am so strong

one more step

i am at ease

one more step

to earn your heart

near to me ♪

and suddenly i heard the people screaming my name

and that was my last performance on the stage

I passed out

and I couldn't lift my arm

---------------------------------------------------------

Ivo rushed to get Mina and get her a medical assistance as soon as possible

Ivo was terrified....He cant be with mina in the hospital, his show must go on

instead...Mr. Franco accompanied Mina to the ER

the doctor ordered an MRI...after a series of test

the doctor appeared to Mr. Franco

Music and Destiny part 15

I was busy with my rehearsal

photoshoot

Recording

and in weeks of preparation

with the help of Mr. Franco

I was on stage for my debut

everything was perfect

not until I was in the magazine saying

"MINA A SUPERSTAR USER"

I flipped the pages and there I was a photo with Ivo

Music and Destiny Part 14

"Dear Diary, Good Morning! Its a brand new day for me...my dream starts today
Ivo is still sleeping in the couch..I wonder why im so feeling contented just seeing him
sleeping in his couch through a small opening at the door....Im having a long day today
and its going to be a blast....rehearsal, photoshoot, recording, and rehearsals again in just
a week..and then my debut...its funny how things gone fast!"

truly yours Minna ♥

---------------------------
"MINNA!" Ivo shouted but nobody replied
"did she just got out without telling me?" he added

Ivo took a shower
after a while...Minna came back to the apartment

"IVO? are you there? I forgot my cellphone!" Minna announced
this time nobody replied...

Minna remembered she left the cellphone in the bathroom
she rushed to the bathroom and saw IVO

"HI minna?" Ivo welcomed

Minna screamed and shut the door

and realized for a moment that she needed her cellphone

"UHM~ Ivo...I think my cellphone is right there at the sink...can you

pass it to me" Minna said

"Well you can come in and take it yourself" Ivo replied

"Im not joking! I need it now or I'll be late for practice" Mina said annoyingly

"Hang on!" Ivo said

Ivo walked over to the sink and find her cellphone...

he watched left to right..and scrolled over Mina's phone

He smiled

"Minna! Here's your cellphone! I never thought I'd be your Wallpaper" Ivo chuckled

Minna blushed as she grab her cellphone from Ivo's hand while the door is incompletely

shut.."Its nothing Ivo!" she added

"whatever Minna!" Ivo said then walked back into the tub again

this time mina got curious, she cant help but sneak into that small opening of the door

she looked back..she covered her eyes..but part of her..wants to see
