happiness.

as we are walking out of our apartment
he was walking a few steps ahead of me
as usual, he kept on walking and then he reached out his hand motioning for my hand
then i held on to his hand


such a simple move, but it's something that makes me happier than ever
a simple gesture that indicates one's love, one's need, and what one's used to
but I can't help but wonder, is simplicity good enough to make a relationship last?

as I have heard often, guys moved on because they want something more exciting, more fresh, or whatever you call it
then that leads to the problem of marriage and settling down.
Will a guy ever be willing to have a simple life?
after taking the Parenting class, learning about how high the divorce rates have increased, and how many people stayed single make me unease and confused about everything
to be honest, I'm not that confident in myself to be able to have a guy cling onto me because I don't think i'm that interesting
having divorce parents of my own makes it even harder to believe in marriage
seeing my friends getting hurt in relationships makes it also harder for me to believe in long lasting love

yes, love does exist, but can it last?
I can only pray that more guys have morals and sense of justice
because I want to be able to hold onto this hand.
