Matchmaking Festival 22 Somebody Like You
When you put your arms around me, you let me know there's nothing in this world I can't do. – Keith Urban ••• Still a little jet-lagged, Annaliese woke up too early in the new timezone. She sat on the edge of the bed and her eyes were fixed on William who was sleeping on the couch. He initially wanted to sleep outside the bedroom but of course, she forbade him. The couch in the living room was smaller and it could give him a backache. After all, William’s room was the biggest among the three others, so the couch could fit there. Seeing the blanket had slid down, leaving his shoulder uncovered, she approached him to fix it. Her hand was stretched out to reach his head, but she restrained herself from the thought of waking him up. Then she left the bedroom, took her mobile, and headed toward the kitchen instead. Annaliese looked for a drink as her throat felt a little dry. She grabbed a cup and filled it up with the tap water, then satisfied herself with one and a half cups of it. A
Matchmaking Festival 23 Rewrite The Stars
It's up to you, and it's up to me. No one could say what we get to be. So why don't we rewrite the stars? – Zac Effron & Zendaya ••• What in the world was going on? That was the only thing that kept ringing in Annaliese’s ears for the past three hours. She spontaneously went to the US after a short trip to Colombia, bringing no proper clothing for such an important occasion as this. She had to look presentable in front of her future in-laws. Even though William kept saying ‘it’s fine’, Annaliese was still in a panic mode. She believed she had to give the first good impression to them, especially his mom. After hearing all the stories about this cold woman, she didn’t want to get off on the wrong foot. She spent about two full hours looking for the right dress for dinner that night. After returning to the apartment, she couldn't even rest. Based on the information William told her about what his mother was like and her interests, she anticipated anything she might be questioned abo
Matchmaking Festival 24 Dusk Till Dawn
Baby, I am right here. I'll hold you when things go wrong. I'll be with you from dusk till dawn.– Zayn ft. Sia•••William was standing right outside the women's restroom. He thought she would run outside and left the building. His girlfriend might need some time to stop her tears and he was patiently waiting.About ten minutes later, Annaliese came out clean with no more traces of tears on her face. She fixed her makeup and appeared with a smile."Are you okay, babe?" asked William, making sure of her feelings.Annaliese nodded. "I am now. Thank you for waiting, babe," she said. "Now let's go back to the table. We can't leave your parents just like that."William frowned. He didn't understand why she would do that after being hurt by his mom. "No, we don't have to. We can just leave now. I don't want her to insult you again," he remarked in resentment. However, a gentle touch of her hand soothed him."I'm okay. Trust me," Annaliese convinced him. "If I left, I would only make things
Matchmaking Festival 25 Because of You
You never thought of anyone else. You just saw your pain. You never saw me. – Kelly Clarkson ••• "I'm nervous, babe." Annaliese blew her bangs as she was standing in front of the door. In her hands was a closed container containing Guo Tiao, stir-fried flat rice noodles they had cooked together earlier. William patted her shoulder. "Hey, relax. We're in this together," he convinced her. After receiving a confirmation nod from her, he knocked on the door. In just a minute, the door was opened. An old lady around her seventies appeared with a bright smile. "William!" greeted the lady in excitement. She opened her arms and pulled William into her embrace. "Oh, I've missed you, you know." As William pulled away, he said, "Me too, Nan. Missed you too." "And who's this pretty young lady?" Her eyes sparkled when she looked at Annaliese. William gave a light push behind Annaliese's back and declared, "This is my girlfriend, Nan." "Really?" Annaliese grinned widely so her eyes formed
Matchmaking Festival 26 Never Say Never
I will never say never. I will fight. I will fight 'til forever to make it right. – Justin Bieber ••• “Son, I love you! You’re now just blinded by this temporary love thus you're acting this way.” Meyling refuted the question William had just given her. “I’m blinded? Temporary love? Mom, what are you talking about?” William raised his intonation in exasperation. He ran his fingers through his hair backward and stopped somewhere behind his head to squeeze it. “As we’re now here on this subject, let me tell you what you’ve done these years regarding your best friend, okay?” While Meyling looked frustrated, Annaliese and David couldn't say a thing and just watched where this conversation was going. "Remember how many times you missed my basketball matches? And on top, you missed the last one which was crucial just because your best friend suddenly fell sick, despite her husband could take care of her? You could've just waited until my match finished. You’d promised! Did you know tha
Matchmaking Festival 27 Never Give Up The Fight
The doubt grows, the roads seem closed,. The petal wilts on a garden rose. But the battle's not over, don't let go.– Avant•••“I’m asking you why, just because it sounds familiar to me. Don’t get me wrong,” Sandra clarified the misunderstanding. “And I think you guys could use some advice from me. But that’s if you allow me.”“Sorry, guys. She's—” Neil was about to reprimand his girlfriend but got interrupted by William’s touch on his shoulder.William looked at him and said, “Let her speak.”“You’re sure?” Neil didn't believe it. He turned to Annaliese for confirmation.Annaliese shrugged and gestured toward her boyfriend with her head. She didn’t mind listening to her either, as long as William was okay with it.“What about the bowling game? You paid for it already, right?” asked Neil as if trying to stop them from listening to whatever Sandra was about to say. He definitely knew something they didn't.Chris stepped closer and grabbed Neil by the shoulder. “How about we let them t
Matchmaking Festival 28 Motion Sickness
I hate you for what you did. And I miss you like a little kid. – Phoebe Bridgers ••• “Please don’t be mad at her. I was the one who asked her to play.” Mrs. Po intervened in the situation. She tried to prevent any trouble from happening. Annaliese lowered her head a little to apologize. However, she had to refrain from saying a thing when she saw Meyling’s pointing finger at her. “Still, she could’ve said no!” Meyling believed the girl was in the wrong no matter what. “This piano is off-limits!” Mrs. Po touched her mistress’ arm. “She didn’t know. Now you may control your emotions,” she warned her. “Remember what the doctor said.” Her voice was low, like a whisper but it was still audible to Annaliese who stood close enough. Meyling took a deep breath and did what Mrs. Po said. “I’m sorry.” Annaliese finally got a chance to apologize. “If you’re sorry, you should leave now,” commented Meyling harshly. “For goodness sake, why haven’t you understood the way I have been treating
Matchmaking Festival 29 Just Give Me A Reason
Just give me a reason, just a little bit's enough. Just a second, we're not broken, just bent, and we can learn to love again. – Pink ••• "Hey, Son." David gave William a hug as soon as he saw him and then moved to Annaliese. "And, my future daughter-in-law." They took a seat at the table outdoors since the weather was good. Besides, the open space would be suitable for their serious conversation. "Let's order something first, David suggested. He raised his right hand, asking a waiter to come. "This cafe is well-known for its Instagrammable spots. Anna, you said you work in the travel industry, right? Why don't you take some pictures or videos first?" Both Annaliese and William frowned in wonder. "What? Don't be so surprised. I've learned what Anna's job is ever since she came to our house and told us about it. You know, I want to get to know my future daughter-in-law better," David explained, clearing up their confusion. "So, as a travel vlogger, taking pictures and videos, the
