Happy Valentine's Day.

 14.02.2021.

Valentine's Day used to be a day where I would sit in my room alone,

lying on my bed,

scrolling on social media and seeing all the happy couples posting pictures of them celebrating,

while I'm all alone in my room.

And eventually cried myself to sleep or bringing work to my table and worked till I'm tired and dozed off.

But this year, it was different.

For the first time after almost 10 to 11 years,

I finally get to spend it with someone special who I am glad to call as my boyfriend.

And for the first time, I felt so lucky to have spent this day like how I wanted it to be,

simple.

Instead of expensive flower bouquet that wouldn't last long,

he gave me a pot of orchid that will bloom always when taken care of with love and attention.

Instead of spending time at town,

he came to my house, gave me lots of hugs and kisses, and brought me for a short walk while holding hands at my neighbourhood.

Instead of fancy dinner and steak + wine,

I cooked simple dishes for dinner and he finished everything up though I doubt whether it was really nice or not,

Instead of going home after dinner, he insisted to stay longer to accompany me and to listen to all sorts of stories,

while laughing and having a great time.

This is indeed the kind of Valentine's Day that I wish to do with my partner.

Simple and filled with love is more than enough for me. 

Thank God that you were here.

Thank God for sending you at the right time.

Thank God for everything.
