The Assumption in Love

by Lawrens M. Andal



On a picturesque day in the heart of Thailand, as the clock struck 5 pm, the vibrant streets were bathed in the warm glow of the setting sun. In the midst of this enchanting scene was a girl named Bea, whose life was about to take an unexpected turn.

Troy, a mysterious figure with an air of confidence, strolled down the bustling street, heading towards a charming café where he planned to savor the rich aroma of a freshly brewed coffee. Little did he know, fate had a different plan for him.

Out of nowhere, Bea, fueled by determination, started running after Troy. Breathless, she finally caught up with him and nervously uttered, "Hey..."

However, Troy, known for his nonchalant attitude towards strangers, dismissed her with a cold shoulder. Unperturbed, Bea continued to trail him, her curiosity and determination unwavering.

Finally, Troy halted, turning to face Bea with a stern expression, "What do you need? Should I call the police?"

Undeterred, Bea explained, "No, sorry to bother you. I think you're the perfect man. My friends suggested getting a pretend boyfriend to prove to my ex that I've moved on from my last relationship."

Troy scoffed, "Are you losing your mind? I don't even know you. Go, get some other guy."

Despite Troy's resistance, Bea persisted. As Troy headed to the café, Bea followed, determined to make him understand her unusual request.

In the cozy ambiance of the café, Bea pleaded, "Please be that guy; you're all I need." Intrigued, Troy skeptically asked, "Fine, what's the catch?" They sat down and devised a plan – Troy would accompany Bea to the university every day, posing as her boyfriend, while she treated him to a daily large iced coffee.

This routine continued until one day, Bea didn't show up at their usual meeting place. Confused and concerned, Troy called her, but she remained unresponsive. Days turned into weeks, and Bea seemed to have vanished from Troy's life.

Little did Troy know, Bea was grappling with her deepening feelings for him. In a moment of vulnerability, she confessed to her friends about falling in love with Troy, fearing rejection and reluctant to jeopardize their friendship.

As days turned into months, Troy found himself missing Bea more than he expected. Concerned friends suggested that he might be in love with her. It was during this time that they finally crossed paths again.

Bea, regretful and teary-eyed, apologized to Troy for her absence, explaining her internal struggle. Troy, realizing the depth of his feelings, confessed that he, too, was in love with her. And so, they officially became a couple, celebrating their 10th anniversary with love that had weathered the storms of uncertainty, revealing that sometimes, the most unexpected beginnings lead to the most beautiful endings.

The Beginning of Forever.
