"I’ve known Nova since high school. She was the class top student. Despite her intelligence, she has never been arrogant and unapproachable. She is humble and kind, which made her shine brighter than any other girls in school. And just like that, I’ve found my soul’s love.

A love story from high school is a classic and it always grabs my attention. There is something with love stories that can last that long. Maybe it all started with a study session, or it may also be a teenagehood filled with laughters, which then led to love that bloomed slowly. I can imagine how wonderful it is to be able to see and admire someone in school every single day. We can love them freely without them having to find out. Maybe even, waking up every single morning was something that Arya waited for at that time.

I was not surprised to hear that Nova was a smart student and admired by her friends; the same with Arya. Nova really is a smart woman, kind, and pleasant. Of course, grabbing the heart of a smart woman is not easy. Even when they have been together, there were many arguments faced by Arya and Nova. Their love journey was colored with a little farewell too. Evidently, they are destined to be together. If back then, Arya used to meet Nova every single day and always tried to steal her attention at school, now he can look at her and care for her as his wife everyday at home.

"For all the time we’ve been together, not once did we ever broke up. Although we had a couple of fights and arguments, and even some harsh talks, in our first few months, as long as we understand one another, there are more things that we are grateful for, rather than to complain about. Sometimes we can’t understand why people can’t get along with the person they were once in love with. I understand that everyone has their own thoughts and opinions. But for me, once I’ve found the person whom my soul loves, it means that we will fight to be together all the way. " - Arya
