*** * B A C K S T O R Y * ~~ She's definitely out of place here. Everyone invited to the party has a place in high society and politics, from a family of rich and famous. From the way they speak to the clothes and accessories they wear. You can immediately tell that she’s out of place. She was not used to such gatherings. Infinity's wearing a simple dress Elroy gave her the other day. They argued about it, especially when he found out how much it cost. But when he said that he just wanted them to wear matching clothes, she compromised. They are both wearing navy blue. "Are you okay?" Elroy whispered to her when he noticed that she was restless in her seat. "I'm just a little bit shy. Why are they looking at me like that?" She thought that if she was not sitting down right now, people, usually women, would stare and judge her from head to toe. "It’s because it is their first time seeing someone as beautiful as you." Then he simply kissed her on the forehead. She's not against p

*** * B A C K S T O R Y * SHE thought that if she had talked to Elroy's mom, somehow it would be okay. But things got messier after that encounter. It's a typical ‘hell’ month for a college student. Exams, projects, submissions. Infinity is busy all week with her upcoming Midterms projects. She needed to submit 5 reaction papers and 3 short stories. Because of too much school work to do, the time they are together is not as often as they used to be. They are both in the same situation, but Elroy made sure that they can still talk at least every day. Elroy is waiting for her outside her classroom just to take her to her next class. A simple smile, even for just three minutes or seconds is enough for both of them. The important thing is that they see each other despite their busy schedule. Infinity doesn’t notice any changes with her boyfriend because of their busy schedule. But one day, she noticed that he hadn't brought her home for two weeks. His excuse is that he is busy with

* B A C K S T O R Y * ~~ "Nay! Sorry if we only visited today. Elroy and I have been a bit busy. Don't worry, Elroy is going to graduate! We will visit you more often." Infinity's telling a story to her mom while picking up some wild weeds on her grave. It's her usual thing to do when visiting her mother's grave. "I'm fine with my job. Even though the salary is not great, it is enough to pay my bills and buy some of my needs. Also, I'm happy with what I'm doing! My next project is a children's book! I'm thinking of making the children in the orphanage an inspiration for it. They will surely be delighted when they read the book!” Infinity keeps on talking to her mother as if she's alive. Some may find it weird, but Paolo finds this dear. Love doesn't know any boundaries, even after death. He will graduate in 3 months. His name is already included in the graduation list. Next week is their first anniversary. Infinity doesn't want to celebrate. She just wanted a simple date. But Paol

* B A C K S T O R Y * ~~ "IT’S too early for a date! Lunch? Really?” Infinity is teasing her boyfriend. She was not surprised that he asked her for a date. It's their first anniversary! But she didn't think it would be this early, it was lunchtime. They are currently eating lunch in a well-known restaurant around their university. There are quite a few people even at lunch, maybe because the cost of the food here is a little bit expensive for students. "Dinner is not enough for our anniversary date! So better start in lunch." He said while laughing. He is so handsome in his white long-sleeved polo, tucked into his black pants. Defining his well-built body. Her hair is also very well done, actually, it's a little bit too formal for the occasion. She is also wearing a white dress. It was Paolo who gifted her this dress and told her to wear it today for their anniversary. Of course, she also dresses for the occasion! A light makeup she learned to put on from her officemates.

*** * B A C K S T O R Y * "SANTOS, Paolo Elroy O. *(1)Magna Cum Laude." The entire Plenary Hall was filled with applause. Paolo held out his diploma and medal in front of the stage, then looked back at his wife's seat. Infinity claps her hands, and her eyes are a little bit watery because of too much emotion. Paolo achieved one of his dreams, and she is so proud of him. He just stared at her while going down the stage, he also gave her a flying kiss which she jokingly caught. Everyone's happy and in congratulatory mode. After the program, she immediately went down to the graduating area, to be welcomed with his arms wide open waiting for her. She immediately ran and hugged him. "I am so proud of you." She whispered in his ear and gently kissed his cheek. They are currently sharing their happiness inside their bubble when someone interrupts them. “*(2)Kuya!” She knew who it was just by the voice. They immediately let go of the hug and looked at the place where the voice came at t
