When he said he doesn't wanna make a big deal about it, it doesn't change the fact that it's been a year.
When he is not as excited as I am, it doesn't mean it's not very important for me.
When he said we won't celebrate, it doesn't make it an ordinary day.
Today marks the day when I acknowledge my feelings for you.
When it is not a happy anniversary, you say : Sup, it's been a year!

It's almost our anniversary, by this time last year we were already talking, we were already besties, he was already my confidant, he was already special, I was already unwrapping the gift, my gift, my most special one.
It's been an amazing one year, and I can only imagine how much more, how much better will be the years I'll have with him.
I have never felt this way before, never felt so loved, so secured, so special, so happy, so appreciated and that is by someone who are thousands of miles away.
I grew up quickly, I had to. I had to take the roles of an adult at 13, or maybe even earlier than that. I had to be strong for my mom and siblings. I put them first before my self, I worry for them, I solve their problems, I look out for them, but no one does the same for me. I have to keep my own problems, my fears and worries. My mom was so broken, still a little broken, that I always felt I don't wanna add anymore more burden to her, but instead try to take off as much burden as I can and put it on me. My siblings I thought was too young, or cannot help me with anything. I grew up that way, I'm used to it. A lot of what I have went through they don't know. But here he came, someone I haven't even met in person, Someone I chat in viber, opened me up. I have friends, I listened to them, I keep their secrets, I comfort them, give my two cents, but I never was someone to share my problems, or secrets. But him, he was different, He torn down my walls, swiftly, quickly, and made his way into my heart, and claimed it.
He surprised me with a birthday cake, for my 31st birthday, even though he is far away he was able to surprise me, And promised me that I'll never have to buy my own birthday cake again, ever. He said" no woman of mine will ever have to buy her own cake" It's so wonderful to hear, and I really prayed that I get to spend all the rest of my birthdays with him, with cake or not, I only wish to be his woman, for as long as I am a being, for as long as I am me, I wanna be Rafael's woman.
He is also my rock, my strength, someone I can depend on. I have never had that sense of security before. I haven't depended on anyone before. Listening to myself now, it's kinda sad to say it this way but I was never taken cared off by a man before, not the way he does. It's not the material things, I'm not that kind of girl. It's knowing he will do anything for me, it's knowing he is always there for me, it's knowing my worries, my fears, my problems are not just mine alone, I have someone to share it, to help me, to even solve it for me.
My daughter was hospitalized recently, I don't have insurance, but I have save some money, that is why it didn't stressed me out so much, about the bills. He also assured me I have nothing to worry about, I just have to let him know how much more I need. Thankfully I was blessed with a kind Doctor too, and I had enough to pay for the bills. More than the knowing that he will help me, it's the comfort he brings, its sounds unreal, but at times when I can't talk to him, when I am worrying, or even when I'm in pain and discomfort cause of a tummy ache, I close my eyes and I can clearly see his face, it calms me down, comforts me, he is a happy place I go to.
And most importantly, I know that he is not only gonna be there for me, but for Fiona too. I cannot put into words how safe it makes me feel, how free, how blessed, when he promised me he will, I felt something from my heart spreading to every cell of my body, it's like having a new life sort of, it's not a life with no fear or worries, but it's brighter, beautiful, like when you see the prettiest garden, this is what I am now, what I have, and who I am sharing it with, like seeing my life and it's the most beautiful I've seen.
And for all the things that he is to me, all the things he has done I can only hope that I can do the same for him, be someone he can depend on too, make him happy too.
I like to tell you that I am very thankful for everything that you do, for always listening to my rants, for staying up late at night to hang out with me, for trying to wake up early on your rest days to see me, for always being there for me. for understanding me, for making me laugh, for helping me out, for getting a divorce, for making us happen in the near future, for coming into my life and for asking me to be your wife, maraming maraming salamat.... and I love you with the whole of my being.

Everything is peachy.
I urban dictionary that! :)
One year ago today, I have already met my love, though I didn't know it yet.
Today everything is fine, peachy. We get misunderstandings sometimes, but whatever happens, we will always be ok.
I am so looking for the day that I will wake up beside him, make him breakfast, prepare his lunch, make sure he has an extra socks and shirt on his bag, kiss him and wave goodbye as he goes to work, and see him again at night, cooked him dinner and watch him love what I made for him and then sleep next to him.
I don't dream of anything fancy. I just wanna have a family with him. I just wanna have someone through thick and thin, for the good times and the bad times. I just want him to love me and my daughter too, as I would love him and his kids too. I'm going to uproot and join him, and together we will make a bigger tree, with deep strong roots,
I'm always, all the time, thankful that I have you, that you love me. I don't need someone better, you have been the best, what you are is what I want, what ever you will be, is what I want, everything about you is what I want, specially that is what I want.
Never will there be anyone better than you for me.
You still suck at waking up though. But I love you, very very very much.

The Skype Call
I wouldn't have guessed, that day would lead to this day.
It was September 8, 2014 when we first saw each other on video, it was a little pass 10 in the morning, after I brought my daughter to school. There was a lot of talk and a lot of times that it was postponed, at one point he asked if we would ever skype, one time he even said we should try at least once and at one time he said can we just look at each other, no talking, just "sky" no "pe".
The first time that skype was mentioned on the first or second day that the clan had viber, he was at his cousin's birthday party and he called me up. The call got disconnected and my daughter woke up so we agreed to talk some other time, He asked if I have oovoo, I said no. He asked if I have skype, and I said yes. He said he's gonna make one and we should skype soon, I said sure, that was August 22, 2014
Next was two days later, while he was at work, he said he was doin a little sneakin' for his girl and gave me his skype ID and ask if we can skype later that day, which was my tomorrow, I said it depends on my schedule. We ddin't skype that day because we went to my grandmother's house. He said it was okay, we have plenty of time right? I didn't get if he was meaning to say that we still have time or chance to do it. Back in those days, the choice of skyping with him versus doing something else wasn't like now, where I would choose skyping with him 99% of the time.
It wasn't mentioned again until his birthday, around 1:30 AM of September 5 2014, We were talking about cupcakes and me taking a picture of me eating a cupcake and then he asked how he can go to my work website and I said I don't even know, it's all in Japanese. And he said, let's just skype then! I don't know if he was thinking of booking my class cause my classes are done on skype. lol. I asked him when he wants to skype. He said tomorrow night. I said I can't promise cause I have a school activity that involves the cup cakes and he said we can do it right after. It was his birthday and he had a party that evening. He did ask me again if I wanna skype, later? never? I said maybe tomorrow,
The next mention of it was two days later at early morning of September 7, 2014, he said he wants to make an appointment with me, I get it that he was talking about skyping, i said I thought we were to skype earlier that day, but he said he felt I wasn't feeling it. To be honest I was never scared or uncomfortable about skyping him, I'm used to skyping strangers. We agreed again to skype his night time, my next day. But it did not happen again.
Early morning September 8, 2015, It did not happen again, and he asked me if I'm scared of skyping him, I said no. That when he said about sky no pe. And that day also he left me a video message, it was sooo cute and funny, that's the first time I saw my baby, my love, my kboy.
.........................................................
I'm thankful for skype , it makes the distance bearable, it helped our love grow, it witnessed how we became us, our laughs, tears, smiles and a lot more. It is where we first said our I love yous.
I love you skype! :)

There will always be Kboy and Ann.
8 months and it still amazes me how I have found the love of my life, the most amazing guy, someone I love the most, someone I will give everything for, someone I will do anything for, someone I will live for and die for, in a game.
I have read a nice quote somewhere that long distance relationship is the hardest, it is hard, you'll never know until you are in that pair of shoes, but hard as it is, it's the most intense, wonderful, exciting, and meaningful relationship.
Another quote said, foreign relationship is a blessing, its a different kind of love, when two cultures from two different places, find each other and love.
Our love is really a blessing for me. He is my angel, he guides me, makes me strong, makes me happy, makes me feel so loved.
Foreign, not really, just short off.
There's some thoughts that runs through my head sometimes like, what if he never went to America and just lived here in the Philippines. Would we have met? Will we love? It will be very convenient cause we don't have to go through being apart. Would he be the same Kboy? Would we still be together?
Or what if we are the same age? Would we still fall in love?
Was it coincidence or plain luck that we found each other?
I believe he is meant for me, that we would have met, and that all the things that happened in out lives are steps towards meeting each other, towards being together, that was the plan. That we have to go through what we had, met people that we had, be in the relationships that we had, in order to have this.
In a place where you don't go to meet new love, in a time when you're not looking for love, and when you're on opposite sides of the world, suddenly there was a spark, a pull, a will, a guidance, a strength, a love like no other.
That's a blessing, a gift I'm gonna hold on to, in this life and the next.
I'm gonna love you no matter what, I'm gonna always hold on to you, I'm always gonna fight for us. I'm always gonna understand, and I'm always gonna forgive, there's no more deal breaker, cause I'll always gonna find a way to fix it, and I know it won't be to hard, cause I know you won't hurt me too much. I'll always stay, because you were made for me, you're mine and I'm yours.
And from 8 months ago till the end of times, there will be kboy and ann.

When it ends?
You come into a relationship not thinking that it has an expiry date, an inevitable ending, in the near or far future.
All the guide books says, always save something for your self. Don't give everything, love yourself more.
As much as I like reading and learning new stuff, love is something that I believe has no guidelines, or maybe its just me.
But that's how I love, I don't have a back up plan, I don't have a safe guard, I'm always all in, I'm always a hundred percent, and i always believed it will last my life time.
Sure I was wrong before, but I'm not gonna love you less than I loved before. I'm not gonna give less of me but more.
And like what you said, what if shit happens in the future? THAT WOULD REALLY SUCK !
And a tattoo would be the least of it.
Should I be cautious about everything, for the moment when shit happens?
You know how stupid I was last time, you know I don't know how to do that.
When shit happens.........who knows.
I hope we will overcome it, all of it, always.

What he doesn't know...
Being in a long distance relationship, we only see what can be seen in our laptops camera, sometimes the connection is so terrible that the image is blurry. Sometimes we only chat in viber that we cannot see each other at all.
That these are things that I'm pretty sure he doesn't know, it's like the behind the scenes. sort of.
# 1. Before, the first thing I look for when I open my eyes, is my phone-to check my coc troops. No matter what time, it maybe when I wake up in the middle of the night to pee, I'll check coc first before going to the bathroom - that he already know. What he doesn't know is I always check for his chats too. And take time to read it. That's why I know that sometimes at around 2 am to 3 am he chats with nutso cause she's still up.
# 2. He always says good morning/evening yall in coc then almost immediately send me a private good evening goodnight on viber before heading to work. I was always online on COC before. But whenever I see him say goodnight there, I'll looked forward to my private goodnight. But there were a few times that it took a few minutes before he sent me a goodnight message, and I was starting to pout, until I received it and it will definitely make my night.
# 3. When we where just friends and when we skype, I always make sure I wear something decent, always with sleeves, I'll brush my hear, I'll wear earrings, but..... I was always wearing house short, those shorts that he likes so much now. hahaha. That is why I don't stand up in the camera,
# 4. On his birthday when I promised to talk with him on the phone. It was also Fiona's brother's birthday. So I cooked a lot of food to bring to the school party that day too, it was a very busy day, but I made sure I have time to talk with him. I made a schedule that would work around the time we planned to talk. Eating something long like pasta or noodles on someone's birthday is a wish for long life and blessing, I was eating the pasta for him too.
# 5. I cried myself to sleep the first few nights we became a couple. It was a mix of emotions, I was very happy and yet very scared and sad. It only stopped after our long viber talk when I finally came to the decision of leaving Fiona's dad. Because that talk confirmed everything, that we are both real, and the love is very real. And it made me stopped crying, cause I know the person I love really loves me too, and although we don't yet know where we were heading, I already know it's gonna be worth it no matter what.
# 6. I was frustrated to hear the words I love you. I was so ready to say it, I want to say it, but I felt he was not ready. And I know he loves me and yet he won't say it. It's a special word for him. There was one time I was trying to get it out from him, I asked him how much he likes me, and all I got was I'm crazy about you and more. I was like damn! That's it! hahaha.. Then I settled for banana. And during that time banana was music to my ears. We both know how awkward the first I love you was, but it's memorable nevertheless.
# 7. I considered calling him PAPI before since he always call me MAMI, but when I hear my self say it, I though it was too slutty.
# 8. I really liked it when he shaved. I looooveee how my baby looks, he is(you are) very hot and girls chase him. This does sound like a suggestion, and I am not trying to change him (you) or anything. But it will be cool if he(you) do that once in awhile. Then I'll have curly hair once....... in awhile too.
# 9. When I talk to someone about how awesome he is (you are), I also mention about how he (you) wanted to be facebook official, cause me and most girls thinks its so sweeeeeeettttttt...
# 10. And its now 3 am, and i hope he reads this after waking me up early tomorrow cause otherwise he might not wake me up early.
That these are things that I'm pretty sure he doesn't know, it's like the behind the scenes. sort of.
# 1. Before, the first thing I look for when I open my eyes, is my phone-to check my coc troops. No matter what time, it maybe when I wake up in the middle of the night to pee, I'll check coc first before going to the bathroom - that he already know. What he doesn't know is I always check for his chats too. And take time to read it. That's why I know that sometimes at around 2 am to 3 am he chats with nutso cause she's still up.
# 2. He always says good morning/evening yall in coc then almost immediately send me a private good evening goodnight on viber before heading to work. I was always online on COC before. But whenever I see him say goodnight there, I'll looked forward to my private goodnight. But there were a few times that it took a few minutes before he sent me a goodnight message, and I was starting to pout, until I received it and it will definitely make my night.
# 3. When we where just friends and when we skype, I always make sure I wear something decent, always with sleeves, I'll brush my hear, I'll wear earrings, but..... I was always wearing house short, those shorts that he likes so much now. hahaha. That is why I don't stand up in the camera,
# 4. On his birthday when I promised to talk with him on the phone. It was also Fiona's brother's birthday. So I cooked a lot of food to bring to the school party that day too, it was a very busy day, but I made sure I have time to talk with him. I made a schedule that would work around the time we planned to talk. Eating something long like pasta or noodles on someone's birthday is a wish for long life and blessing, I was eating the pasta for him too.
# 5. I cried myself to sleep the first few nights we became a couple. It was a mix of emotions, I was very happy and yet very scared and sad. It only stopped after our long viber talk when I finally came to the decision of leaving Fiona's dad. Because that talk confirmed everything, that we are both real, and the love is very real. And it made me stopped crying, cause I know the person I love really loves me too, and although we don't yet know where we were heading, I already know it's gonna be worth it no matter what.

7 months out of forever.
More than half a year has passed. It feels fast, yet the time we have to wait to be together feels painfully long.
But we manage. we are new and yet like an old couple. We are comfortable enough to fart our best fart (that kind that makes you feel so good) while skyping each other. We find ways to bond, find new things to do online together, we have our first movie date on skype ( for 15 minutes or less.. hahaha). Sometimes we run out of things to talk about that we just start singing.
I love everyday, and on bad days, he is my happy pill. I find comfort in him, I find strength, I find my future.
Not long ago when we tried to stop ourselves from planning ahead, and now we are talking about schools, after schools, possible jobs, future. Is it unhealthy? Are we getting ahead of ourselves? Is it too early to plan for things like that? I don't care. It makes me happy.
Looking back, it all started with my heart, LITERALLY. It acted up, wanting to be free, And I found a game that calms it. Then I found a friend that made it smile. And a bestie that made it jump, beat again and live again. A ninj that filled it with love and strength and comfort. My baby that owns it and takes care of it. My goy who's gonna be in it forever.

Truly Blessed
Faith.... Trust.... Patience....
Towards each other, and mostly to the almighty who guides, blesses and loves us the most.
In every obstacle that we faced, it's amazing how He made way for us, how things just fall in to it's proper places.
It makes me truly thankful, for giving you to me, for making everything okay, forgiving us strength, for always guiding us.
Our plans might not always go as we first thought it would, cause he has better plans for us.
Jeremiah 29:11
11 For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
And in our memories, and in our hearts, and with how I'll try to document our love, I hope we will never forget, about everything that makes us US, that makes our love amazing, and how we were blessed and how our life together should be dedicated to the one that gave us to each other.
You're my true love, and I'm so lucky to have known what that is.

We are getting a Divorce.
That light bulb moment when you figured out why it never worked with your past relationships before.
Last week was rough for us. I guess it was a milestone too, for our relationship. Most of all for me, about my fears, my scars from the previous relationship I had.
It started with a simple thing, he overslept and it resulted into two days of emotional torture for the both of us. And it end up with us getting divorce, and we are so excited though a bit anxious but I believe I am speaking for the both us when I say we are both happy about it.
In our wedding, I will be wearing a wedding dress made by my husband, no matter how it looks, it will be the most beautiful and important dress of my life. He will be wearing a traditional barong. We will have a waffle wedding cake. We will serve breakfast in our reception, american and filipino and of course there will be loads of bacon which is his favorite. We will have just family, they can wear their pajamas if they want. It will be simple and unique.
I have stopped dreaming about my wedding almost seven years ago, and then start dreaming again, planning, browsing online about ideas, dresses, cake toppers, and then as the months go by the dreams started to become blurry and I'm starting to get scared.
It has been raised a couple of time before, about when he's going to get divorced, the first time was December last year, and now on our 6th month together, nothing is filed yet.
It starts to get frustrating for me, I start feeling all this doubts and start remembering the past like how it happened and how things are starting to look similar. It's like history repeating itself. And I found myself in the point where I almost stopped believing and it was awful. Because all the future I dreamed is getting farther, blurry and is starting to look impossible.
I have believed that we have a strong relationship, stronger than most, but in that moment, i felt defeated, Like the future of our relationship is now all up to him, and he is not doing anything about it. All the emotions was just crazy.
Regarding his divorce, I was only focused on what I feel. I also set my own line not to cross. And that was not good. I created this wall around his divorce, a wall that I tried to peak in to, felt like I wanted to jump over it, and the wall we finally shattered.
He did asked me before to help him out with his divorce, I thought it was something I should stay away from, something he should do on his own. I now realize that it were scars left from my ex, back when he told that his annulment was none of my business.
And there are a lot of challenges, circumstances around his divorce. And I don't know what was happening what he was feeling and why things are not started.
It was really a mess and we were almost emotionally drained. And what solved it was being honest of what we truly feel, of what we truly need and that is each other's support. I needed to be part of it, to know what is going on cause our future together depends on it, and he needed my help with it. And it also made me realize that he was right, he has been committed to me as a husband should. He ask me about big decisions like buying a motorcycle, he takes care of me and my daughter, he protects us in his own way even though he is very far.
And now its our business, we will face it together, I'll help and support him with everything. And we over came it. The elephant was out of the room. Things are much brighter. And my dreams are there again.
A dress made by him, a waffle wedding cake, tons of bacon and having his name.
Don't get me wrong though, I'm not all about the wedding. I don't love him because I'm gonna marry him, I'm gonna marry him because I love him. They said marriage is about commitment, I believe I have that already, but,,,,, I'll take the wedding too! LOL!
So what's his is mine, what's mine, is, umm.. yeah... his too (just kidding!) So it's our divorce. Does it make sense?
That light bulb moment when you figured out why it never worked with your past relationships before. Even though you tried so hard... Because I was meant to be here, meant to be in this time, meant to learn all those life lessons, meant to have Fiona, meant to play the game clash of clan, meant to find him, meant for him, meant to be.
I love you very much my number 1 reader! I am so lucky to have you. And I promise there's no giving up, no matter what it takes, however long, no matter how hard, Till we share dentures. Mahal na mahal kita aking goy..

Like every other, but extra ordinary....
If it sounds too good to be true then it is not true. If its too easy, then you don't value it much.
Like very other relationship, ours needs work too. And being a way from each other, it needs more effort.
And we have been through a lot, already...
The first problem we had to face was with me ending things with my daughter's father and moving out. Having that issue early in the relationship made us stronger. We were already fighting for our love. Faced with a lot of complications, emotions and possible consequences. At that time, we tried to not talk about the future, we avoid to share plans, we were on the edge. And when I'm finally out of the house, when I ended up things with my ex, that's when we started making plans.
I remember how I think he's trying to convince me how New Jersey is a pretty place, he sent me pictures of the trees changing its color. About how government is way better. It was all subtle. But heck I'll move to a tundra, or a dessert, wherever I can be with him.
We never stopped being best friends. We still talk about our darkest secrets, we talk about our feelings, we talk about our plans. And we are always there for each other. We have secrets that we hide from everyone else. I had my darkest secret told, and I cried about it, and he helped me, accepted it, put closure on it, I never thought I could find someone like that, someone I could share everything, someone that can comfort me and make me stronger. I hope that will never change, cause I'm planning to marry my best friend.
That's another problem we have, marriage. He is still married. Of course he is planning to solve that. He has been separated from his legal wife for many years now, she's even married to some else already but she didn't file for divorce. It is hard to trust for it happened to me before. And I'm trying, but mostly I'm justscared. It had been an issue a couple of times, I cried about it, he cried about it, I cried about it some more offline. I love him very much, and I feel and believe that he loves me very much too, loves me enough to want to be with me for the rest of our lives. I have faith in our love and therefore I trust him. And hopefully it's gonna be done soon. ( Cause otherwise I'm gonna start sending him pictures of trees here, and be aggressive in convincing him he can move here instead.. LOL! )
I did him wrong too. How stupid am I to mix up his birthday and my ex's birthday twice. I can never say sorry enough for that. They are both September and only a year difference in age. I knew it hurt him. I'm still so sorry about it. For a whole a day, I kept repeating his birthday in my head. I'm not going to forget it anymore. promise!
And there's the distance and time difference. It was recently an issue. His nights are my mornings and vice versa. We talk everyday, for hours, it's never enough. I got spoiled I think and he was really exhausted lately. I was bummed about him not waking up for our skype dates. I always thought I was someone who is not petty, I don't sweat the small stuff. I guess it wasn't small for me, or I became petty. But you know, he's the cutest when he thinks he's in trouble.. Like a little boy but trying to have a poker face. I guess I'm very silly to feel bad about him sleeping instead of talking with me, when he spends all his possible waking hours talking with me.
Like every other couples, we have problems, but our situation, our love, and what we see in the future, is extra ordinary.
For two people who are not physically together, I bet you we are stronger than most couples who sees each other every day. Our sticker kisses, kissing the laptop screen and our raiding, we do what we do, and it's all real.
And the wait.. Probably the hardest part, but the most important.
There's no definite time, I don't know when, or how long. I just know that when I watch him sleep, I wanna be next to him, when I close my eyes to sleep, I want him to be next to me. And I know that I love him with every grain of my being, and everything is worth it.

Closing A Book and Opening A New One..
We weren't looking, we weren't asking and there was a few times we tried to stop it. And all I can think, and all I believe is that, it was meant to be.
12/9/2014 1:25:05 AM Rafael: Hey I got a question
12/9/2014 1:25:09 AM Mary Ann: Wat
12/9/2014 1:25:33 AM Rafael: R u quitting wen ur hubby comes home?
12/9/2014 1:25:41 AM Mary Ann: Ofcourse
12/9/2014 1:25:53 AM Rafael: :(
12/9/2014 1:25:57 AM Rafael: For real
12/9/2014 1:26:17 AM Mary Ann: Well he wont like it for sure
It was first about our friendship. My ex was very controlling and very jealous man. I have friends that I know for years and when my ex told me to stay away from them, to not talk with them, to remove them on my facebook, I did, I did all that without thinking twice. And I really cut my connections with my guy friends. But Kboy, we even plan how to stay in touch and keep our friendship, how he will wait until he leaves again so we can talk again, as much as we want again. I promised I'll try to sneak and talk with him once in awhile. I even had a plan about how we can communicate through blog comments without my ex noticing, and he even promised that even though I can't sneak and talk to him all the while that my ex is home, that he will still be there for me, waiting no matter what.
It felt like our time was limited and we end up trying to make the most of it. He wont go to bed until the early morning and will sleep only for a few hours, we talk longer than his sleep. And that's how we got to know each other more.
It was always happy event when I pick my ex up in the airport, I know he doesn't give a lot of fudge about me but I was happy still, mostly for the kids. But that time, i dreaded it, I was scared, it felt like my heart would break.
And then we fell in love, And it was real, strong and true. And I had to have him, I cannot deny it, I cannot help it. And we became a couple without fully thinking about how and what and when. I just know I love him, and i want to love him and hoped that he loves me as much too.
It was a very complicated situation for me, there's not just one person who's gonna be affected. I was scared that there's two hearts I'm gonna hurt most. There's a lot of nights that I cried about it, and some tears I shared with Kboy, he shed some tears too.
We tried to prepare ourselves, we planned, changed the plan, talk about how we will comfort each other. And finally I moved out a week before he came home.
We prepared for the worst. But it all went ok. We were fine, we are stronger, better. Nothing crazy happened. As for my ex, I feel he has accepted it, or at least he didn't do anything crazy.
It took awhile before he returned to the ship, he vacationed for 4 months. The night before he left, he spent a few minutes playing with our daughter and he let her know that he's gonna work in the ship again. And yesterday morning he left. And I wrote the last sentence of my book with him.
It's says "Thank you for our daughter, live well"
And today is my daughter's moving up day from kindergarten, she received a medal and a lot of awards. There was a lot of memories that flashed back, of last years moving up day, and other graduations and other events. I know sometimes I will still look back at it with little tears and I hope he would understand why. I did feel like crying.
And then as soon as we came home, Fiona said "Skype papa ninja". I told her he's already sleeping and that she can show her medal later when he wakes up. And that's what she did as soon as he skyped. My daughter, so smart at age 5, she loves him too.
Our relationship is pretty complicated from the beginning. It almost feels impossible. We are in different countries, with 12 hours time difference, we both have bagages and complications, and the distance and the wait. We will make it through. We have started writing in our book for awhile now, I won't get to write the ending for this book, we don't plan to close it.

My Lies
My ASLS (age/sex or gender/location/status) 8 months ago, 29/f/Cavite/married. My ASLS today, 30/f/Cavite/single but spoken for.
No I didn't get divorce nor annulment, I was never married. I lied.
I met my daughter's father when I was 23, he was 32. I now have a 5 years old daughter with him. For the sake of my daughter, I'm not gonna go into details about how bad it was, and what happened, but I want her to know that she's the best thing that I got out of the 7 years I spent with her dad, and because of her I don't regret it.
A few things I should say about my past relationship was that my daughter's father is still married to someone else, it was never dissolved or taken cared of. Like most men, they will promise you the moon and the stars, and marriage (to get what they want, yeah!), but there wasn't any moon or stars. But still I was committed like I was a wife, I was loyal and faithful, up until I received a gift, a blessing, a ninja.
Gamers, they get a little excited with female players, so I thought my gaming life would be simpler if I just say I'm married, (well i'm kinda pretending to be and/or playing the part).
My Kboy believed I was married, he was playful and he was flirting but he was respectful at the same time. We really just have chemistry from the beginning, as friends.
I remember when he asked me what my husband does for a living and I said he works in a ship, he said all good he can steal me away while he's gone. He said he was joking.
We were already talking in viber and skype for awhile before he learned I was not really married.
He was asking for my maiden name cause maybe we are related and I gave him my name, which is the same name he knows. And he asked me why I didn't change my last name when I got married. I said because we don't have divorce here and he knows he was married once. It took him a few more minutes to realize what I was trying to say.
My daughter's father can't get divorce because there's no divorce in the Philippines, he promised to get an annulment but didn't keep it.
Things changed once that was out, we didn't start being a couple nor did he became aggressive when he found that out, instead we became best friends, we became more open to each other. I stopped pretending to be a happy a wife. We have talked about things we don't say to anyone. I fell in love with my best friend, my love, my baby.
So yeah, I was never married. But he still is..
My Kboy believed I was married, he was playful and he was flirting but he was respectful at the same time. We really just have chemistry from the beginning, as friends.
I remember when he asked me what my husband does for a living and I said he works in a ship, he said all good he can steal me away while he's gone. He said he was joking.
We were already talking in viber and skype for awhile before he learned I was not really married.
He was asking for my maiden name cause maybe we are related and I gave him my name, which is the same name he knows. And he asked me why I didn't change my last name when I got married. I said because we don't have divorce here and he knows he was married once. It took him a few more minutes to realize what I was trying to say.
My daughter's father can't get divorce because there's no divorce in the Philippines, he promised to get an annulment but didn't keep it.
Things changed once that was out, we didn't start being a couple nor did he became aggressive when he found that out, instead we became best friends, we became more open to each other. I stopped pretending to be a happy a wife. We have talked about things we don't say to anyone. I fell in love with my best friend, my love, my baby.
So yeah, I was never married. But he still is..
THOR, another love story
WTF!?! I know that's what you're gonna say once you see this baby. lol
I just have to write this story because this was part of our beginnings.
Our clan made a facebook group so we can put a face behind the names. We like the page and the admin of the page without permission will pick a photo he likes on our fb account and post it.
Thats where we first saw each other's picture. Oh before I forgot to say it, he used to stalk my facebook!
And then there was a picture of this sexy girl wearing a red bra and short posing beside a truck and everyone wondered who she was. And the admin of the clan said it was one of our members named THOR.
Thor doesn't talk much. She was Kboy's first "aking reyna" in the clan.
Back then I couldn't really tell if he really likes her or not. She never talks to him though, but we talked a lot. I thought him some tagalog words to speak to her.
Although we kick it, and it was always fun talking with him, I thought he was a typical guy who goes after slutty looking girls.
But even though he tries to flatter THOR every time she shows her presence in the clan, he still gave the leadership to me.
See when I came into the clan, the leadership rotates between 3 members, King Elvis, Glock and Kboy aka the three kings. They passed the leadership every after war. And then they wanted to add another alpha male (right!) and passed the leadership to a certain Gen, And Gen gave it back to Kboy, and Kboy gave it to me! I was the first femme fatale (kidding!) I was surprised, and so was the two other kings. King Elvis said why he didn't pass it instead to his lady love, THOR. I felt a little awkward when he mentioned that , so it was decided that THOR will be next lead.
Well I passed it to her and she raised havoc during her reign. She kept the leadership for 3 wars then left when she passed it.
I wasn't his first "aking reyna," but he wanted me to rule him! hahaha..
It's just fun looking back. Who would have thought, right hubby-to-be?

The Jump, The Choice, The Step
It wasn't planned, something that I didn't think of, I didn't expected it to happen. It was at that moment, when I let go of all reasons, and all I knew was I don't wanna end it, I don't wanna lose him, and I don't wanna be just friends anymore
I closed my eyes, held my breath and JUMP! I don't know how I will fall and I did not care about consequences, I'm falling and smiling and I didn't care what was waiting for me but he caught me, and held me tight .
It was a happy day, we talked about pet names he wanted to call me before going to work, he sent me a handsome picture of him driving. I did not know what was on his mind, my mind and my heart was still in cloud nine. For that day and the next, I tried not to think about my daughter's dad and not think about how complicated it is. I said to him and to myself, I'll deal with things when it happens.
But the truth, it was crazy in my head. Thinking about all the complications, all that I will lose, all the mess that I will face once shit hits the fan. I don't know if he was serious, I don't know how serious I am. I only know that I have never wanted to be so honest to any person, so honest that I don't wanna lie to him about how I feel for him, I don't wanna hide behind the label of friends, or bestie, or I care for you, I wanna be able to tell him and show him that I love him.
It was after two days that we were able to talk through skype.
THE CHOICE. I was really scared to ask myself for the first two days about, "what now?" . "What's next?" "Why, When, WHO?" I tried to answer myself my own questions yet it makes more questions. And there was also the question of, is he serious? does he loves me or just like me? was he playing? And yet whenever we chat on viber, all fears just disappear, I'm like in this space time warp and it's all butterflies, and pink, and flowers and sunshine, it's a happy place, he's my high, (if only I know how being high feels, I'm imagining it's like that.)
And then the skype call, I was a little shy seeing him for the first time as his girl. It was all cutesie until he asked the question, what now? What will happen when he comes back. tick.. tick.. BOOM!
Now I have to face the questions and answer it. There were a lot of questions not said and a lot of answers not spoken that day like;
Is he for real, is he serious with our relationship? -yes he is.
Does he really like me? -yes a lot, crazy even.
Does he loves me too? -a strong maybe
Is he worth losing everything? -yes
It was not just a choice between two men, it was choosing happiness, choosing to be me again, choosing life. And the decision was made that day. I WAS ALL IN, I did not even looked at my cards, win or lose.
Don't get me wrong, after that, there was still a lot of decisions, a lot of fears, a lot of what ifs, a lot more question. At the beginning, I have this fear that it will all fall apart and I will be left alone, I didn't know if we were at the same page, I had a lot to lose, I have more complications, I have to face a lot of mess on my own.
But we always talk, we prepared, we planned about things, we cried about things, but most of all we love each other and make each other happy, and made all things feel ok. And I never felt alone, even though he is far away.
And in a few weeks I was painting a room I'm gonna move in to, packing stuff, buying a table and finally moving out, never looked back.
THE STEP. Back then I thought, moving out of my daughter's father's house was the first real step to our relationship, now after half a year I think of it differently.
After everything that I have been through, after everything that he's been through, and also all that happened when we met and fell in love, all the things we have done before, today and until I see him in front of me, touch his face, and feel his lips, are the steps we took and will take to be with each other.
Although it feels like I wanna run, sprint and be with him now, soon, no now! I have to be patient, we both have to be. Even though his mornings are my nights, we are thousands of miles apart, we are together, he's always with me, I'm always with him, and we will be together, just a few more steps, a few more steps....

My Bad Habit
Coc chats, became viber chats, later on skype calls too.
In viber is when we got to know each other more.
The clan started the Viber group a week or two before his birthday. It was funny because he didn't want to install viber on his phone but when I mentioned that you can make free calls and private messages, he was like how do I do that?
I never added Kboy on my facebook, I never added any of my clanmates except for the 10 years old Myla who I can't say no to. We never had any means to private message each other before viber. Later on when we are already a couple that I found out he likes to stalk my facebook. hahaha
When he got on viber, the first thing he asked is how can he make phone calls? I told him how and in a few minutes my phone was ringing! Geeezzz, why didn't I predicted that. He sounds so cool, very sexy actually... He sorta sound like snoop dog, the soft spoken, kind of bedroom voice, it tickled me, made me a little nervous, I pretended to be Myla as a joke and I said bye cause I was eating lunch. He still believes up to this day that I got so shy I hanged up on him, for the record, I wasn't shy(still denying it. lol), I was beaming when he called me, cause my fan sounds so sexy.
We didn't start private messaging right away. Kboy is a gentleman (though he doesn't sound like it). We started with small talks about the war, and simple goodnights when it's time for him to hit the sack. And then I start getting good mornings too. Like I started to expect it, once he say good morning to COC and tell everyone to have a great night and he's gonna head to work, then in a few seconds my viber would ring, a message from him saying "good morning smiles, have a good night, laters"
I remember when he first asked me whether I have skype, I said yes, and he said he better make one then so we can hang out sometime. Who knew, we will be using skype for most of our free time now. From the moment we wake up, lunch time and before we sleep.
In viber is where I fell in love with him. We started talking about basic stuff like favorite music, food, just silly stuff. Then we started getting to know each other, we started discussing about life, we started learning more about each other. It became an everyday thing, we chat for 2 or 3 hours a day. He goes to bed at around 3am and I was always worried about him staying up so late but I enjoy talking with him, I wanted to talk to him more too.
I have never talked with anyone the way I talked with him, he said its like that for him too. It just feels so easy to open up, We both don't judge each other, and our opinions and point of views we both accept it. We call each other besties.
In my mind the term besties, was an excuse, a cover up to say we are more than just simple friends but less than lovers.
When we started chatting privately in viber, it wasn't long until I started having guilty feelings. I know I wasn't flirting with him, and we weren't doing anything sexual in nature. But there was this guilty feeling that I'm cheating. Cause I try to deny how I enjoy talking with him, how I look forward to chatting with him, like how I'm tickled when he calls me smiles, or when he flatters me, and how just thinking about him makes me smile. He is like an addiction.
It didn't take awhile too before I know I like him, but I tried to deny it to myself. At one point I really think hard if I should stop, and then I hoped maybe I can keep him around as my friend, I thought it was selfish but I wasn't ready to lose him.
I didn't know why I said it, or what I was trying to do, I guess its more of a warning to myself than to him. I said to him " Please don't turn into a bad habit"
That almost didn't go well. I know he likes me but he is a gentleman that wants to respect what I have. One hand is pushing him away, the other one is keeping a strong hold. He promised he won't do anything to ruin our friendship. But it wasn't a friendship anymore, it's more.
After that I tried to friendzone him, talk more about my daughter's father, try to push him to go after another clan member. But even with those efforts to de-attached, even though we talked about stopping many times, we never did. There's just this pull, like neither of us has the will to stop, I'm sure I don't have.
Before the end of September, my daughter's daddy said he's gonna come home by the end of the month, that he is gonna talk to the ship captain about it and I should expect him to come home. I was usually so happy when I hear the news of his coming home, but that time, I felt scared and really sad. I told Kboy about it and he too was anxious. We promised we will remain friends and still find time and ways to talk. He told me to listen to a song by Alicia Keys, "Try Sleeping With A Broken Heart" I listened to it the whole day, cause I felt like I'm having a broken heart, my favorite part of the song was this;
Anybody could've told you right from the start
It's bout to fall apart
So rather than hold onto a broken dream
I'll just hold on to love
And I could find a way to make it
Don't hold on too tight
I'll make it without you tonight
But he didn't came home, and I was happy.
And the everyday chats went on, and skype, and he became the only person I have been completely honest to, I was able to tell him everything, all the things that no one knew. He became someone like no other in my life, the word special doesn't even fit.
Until September 30, 2014 the warning of don't turn in to a bad habit became, Can we try it tho?
And I am his, and he is mines ever since and for always....

Hi! My name is SMILES :)
Kiheiboy: ann
You: huh?
Kiheiboy: Smile
It was my 30th birthday, August 15, I told everyone in the chatbox that I had to go and enjoy my day, we're at war and I remember he said to everyone "let's win this for Ann's gift". We won.
My clan was a war freak, they search for another war right way. My favorite defense troop for war then was a healer. Kboy always fills my war clan castle and i fill his. I thought it was just paying back the favors cause he always take care of my clan castle and I do donate to everyone too, I just always fill his first.
My 30th birthday, I went out to buy my own cake.
Cooked a simple dinner for family. My clanmates greeted me Happy Birthday. Friends and family on facebook greeted me too. And I received a flower.
But that day too, when I logged in on COC to check whats up and as I expected it's preparation day for war again, I went to his war base to give him troops and his request message gave me a big smile, it says " HAPPY BIRTHDAY MRS TEACH"
So he knows I'm giving him troops, it was kinda embarrassing.
So that night, he requested a back up troop and I gave him 4 archers and 1 goblin. I was laughing when I did that, he didn't noticed cause he must have logged out already when I gave him troops.
And so we were chatting again in the morning like always and I confessed I gave him a goblin, and he was surprise that it was me who pranked him. I told him I gave him a goblin because it made me smile like a goblin when I saw his war clan castle request, and he said " Mission accomplished."
Later on he started calling me smiles, among his many pet names for me. But smiles is always my favorite.
He even turned his base into my pet name
And speaking of goblins, oh my gosh, I woke up this morning and my base looks like this;
I shouldn't have given him my password. hahaha...

Clanmate, Teacher, Interpreter???
Me: In a building somewhere in the Philippines, there was a Filipino and an American waiting for the elevator. The door opened and there was another Filipino inside the elevator.
Filipino outside the elevator : Bababa? (going down?)
Filipino inside the elevator: Bababa! (going down!)
American: are you guys aliens????
Kboy: who's going down????? hmmm...
Me: (perv!)
Kiheiboy, he went to Hawaii when he was young, he doesn't speaks Tagalog anymore, he can't remember if he ever spoken it when he was young. He's cool, very open and frank, We started talking and joking and I start teaching him a few tagalog words.
Ano, sino, bakit, saan, boom panes! It's what, who, why and where. Oh last one is kinda hard to explain. Those were the first words I thought him. And he will pretend he can understand tagalog in the chat box by using those words. He was so cute.
I was never really a teacher to him, he learned a lot of words on his own. He's level 3 tagalog speaker now. He wants to impress me? I am, always.
We first saw each other's photo on our clan facebook page.
As a clanmate, he always likes my ideas. He always say I'm smart, cool and all that. I take it as him playin' around, flirting, being a guy. I do admit now that the attention was fun. If we were both online we will flood the chat box, forget raiding, we were just either joking around or even talking about serious life stuff. I learned that he is a single dad, and that he doesn't know his biological father.
Honestly my first impression of him is that he's funny but a bit of an asshole. Maybe its the way he talks, like the word shit is part of his grammar. Maybe that's why some clanmates thinks his rude or arrogant. Well i did not, I always have fun talking with him.
URBAN DICTIONARY, I have never used it as often as before I started talking with him. Specially when he started calling me MAMI. I know he is not a puerto rican and I know it can mean something else other than mother, but back then I try to consider it as him calling me mother. Well I am a mom and everyone in the clan knows it, I have a then 4 (now 5)years old daughter. Does it makes sense that he calls me mom? I am well aware what he means, hahaha. I just ignore it. He still calls me mami, or baby or smiles.
The interpreter, tagalog to english, english to tagalog. Eventually clan members got more comfortable with him seeing how funny and talkative he is, he's the most talkative one in the clan during that time, and since I am the clan resident English teacher and his pretend tagalog teacher I get to translate for everyone. I even get to translate for THOR, another character of this love story but a story for another day.
I was a clanmate, a teacher an interpreter to him/for him about 8 months ago. What he was to me then was a clanmate who has a cool humor who flatters me a lot. What I am to him now is his woman, what he is to me now is my life.
