Finding Love Again

Vincy had never believed in fate, but meeting Andrew felt like destiny. It was a rainy evening in New York, and she dashed into a café to escape the downpour, only to collide with a stranger, spilling coffee all over his shirt. "Perfect," he said, looking annoyed. She apologised profusely, and that chaotic start turned into an hour-long conversation over fresh cups of coffee.

They fell in love quickly, but life had different plans. Andrew got a job in London, so Vincy had to stay in New York. Long-distance relationships were difficult, but they made it work through late-night calls, surprise visits, and love letters hidden in luggage. They finally reconciled and married two years later.

However, marriage was not the fairytale they had imagined. Long work hours led to missed dinners. Small arguments devolved into cold silences. Then, betrayal occurred. Andrew cheated first—a mistake, a lapse in judgement, but still a choice. Vincy became enraged after learning the truth. She wanted him to feel the same pain, so she did the unthinkable: she cheated, too.

Their home became a battleground of resentment. Divorce seemed to be the only way out. Papers were signed, hearts were broken, and just when they thought it was over, life threw another curveball—Vincy discovered she was pregnant.

For the first time in months, they sat together, not as adversaries, but as two broken souls who once loved each other deeply. The realisation struck them: love was never the problem. It was the wounds, the mistakes, and the silence that drove them apart.

Healing was not easy. Forgiveness takes time. However, with therapy, open conversations, and renewed effort, they gradually resumed. This time, be honest and patient. They relocated to a new city for a fresh start, decorated the nursery together, and pledged never to let resentment win again.

They realised that love was more than just passion; it was about choosing each other even during the most difficult times.
