Our Love Story

The Anchor of Two Hearts


Their love story did not begin with a stolen glance in a crowded room or a sudden twist of cinematic fate. Instead, Francis and Kim sowed the seeds of their future on the fertile ground of silent, hopeful prayers. God, the ultimate matchmaker, was already weaving their separate threads into a singular, beautiful tapestry. It proves that when heaven writes a love story, it bypasses the ordinary to create something extraordinary.


The digital universe became the bridge where their answered prayers finally collided on a screen. On December 16, 2022, a simple notification on Facebook Dating ignited a conversation that felt as natural as breathing. For a week, their messages flew back and forth like eager carrier pigeons, carrying pieces of their hearts across the digital ether. By December 22, 2022, Francis sent a bunch of flowers and cakes delivered by Floral Matters.

On December 25, 2022, the virtual world melted away into the warm reality of a Korean restaurant right beside the Capitol in Kalibo. Over shared plates, an unspoken certainty settled comfortably between them like a warm blanket. There was never a formal interrogation, no anxious waiting for a "yes" to be a girlfriend, for their hearts spoke a silent language. Francis simply assumed they were one, knowing their souls had already danced to the very same rhythm.


On December 31, 2022, as the world prepared to ring in the new year, fate granted them another precious, fleeting glance. Kim traveled from Kalibo to Tobias Fornier, and that journey became a golden bridge where their paths crossed once more. For their romance was not destined to be a daily walk hand-in-hand through sunlit parks. It was a love meant to be tested by vast horizons, proving its strength not in proximity, but in devotion.



Francis, a brave seafarer, would sail away for nine grueling months, and sometimes the calendar bled into almost a whole year apart. Yet, by the abundant grace of God, they sailed through the tempest of distance without ever losing their way. Every chat and video call was a lifeline, a sacred thread keeping their spirits tightly bound together despite the miles. After a year, Francis knew he wanted this anchor forever, so he proposed to Kim, offering a ring that promised a lifetime of coming home to her.
