Tasya and Aldo knew each other from the same church since a very young age. Aldo was active at so many events for youth services - he was the leader of the youth at GKI Pamulang at that time. Tasya joined the youth service once but she ended up being afraid dan gave up to be in the teenage services because there was Citra, Aldo’s sister who was known as the meanest senior at Tasya’s school. Then Aldo moved to Banding for college and from that day, Tasya never met Aldo anymore
A wiseman said that whatever is yours will always come back to you with so many unexpected ways in the right time. I believe something good takes time. Years later, time brought them together back. Tasya and Aldo met again at the same place - the church. Tasya signed up for the multimedia team service as the photographer. So did Aldo. After he graduated, he came back to the city and the service at church, but this time he was in the same team as Tasya. That was the time where memories were created, beautifully created by God in His perfect time. Aldo and Tasya were in the same church project and after so many years, they started to introduce themselves. From little chit-chats, Aldo started to ask Tasya to dinner, and watching movies together. Days after days, chats after chats, after the ups and downs of life, love poured in so smoothly onto their relationship. They didn’t even had the formality of love confession or anniversary date. But it doesn’t matter, as long as they are comfortable with each other.
“Aldo is not a romantic man. I barely hear ‘I miss you’ or ‘I love you’, so I will never take those words for granted. Once he said that he loves me, it means so much to me - I will be super happy and fly myself to the moon. We never celebrate Valentine’s or anniversary, or things like other lovebirds usually do. Aldo also never showered me with sweet words. When he is angry, he will be angry like a man. People might think that we are a boring couple but I am so comfortable whenever I’m with Aldo. He lets me be my real self and he loves me that way.”
Their relationship has been through so many ups and downs. They broke up so many times, but eventually got back together again. Every time they got back, they realised that their love grew stronger than yesterday. This is what I can relate from the quote I mentioned before. If something is meant to be, it will be. Even fights can teach people how to recognise their true love, and also fix themselves to become a better person.
“I pray to God everyday for Him to lead me to find the mister right for my future. If God created Aldo for me, please open every door for us and let me be closer to Aldo. If he’s not mine, please separate us in Your ways. God really showed me the way to find my true love, and it always led me to Aldo - it has always been him. If I have to give a statement about Aldo, I want to let the world to know that after all of these years, he is the one who makes me better, and the truth is I don’t wanna live this life without him, because he completes me..”
