commitment", said he.
                  "It's just so sad and I just couldn't help but cry thinking about it", said he while wiping his tears away with his handkerchief.
                  "You know, I'm just so thankful for you for inviting me to visit this beautiful island", said she.
                  "You are most welcome", he said and then he kissed her again and again. "I am hoping that we could also go to Palawan next time", he added.
                  "Yeah, me too. It's also nice there. Come on, let's go back to our room in the hotel now. We have the whole day tomorrow to explore the whole island", said she.
                  They asked and paid for their bill. They left a huge tip for the waiter before leaving the restaurant. When they got back to their room in the hotel, they took a bath together, made love and then fell asleep in each other's arms.

                  They woke up the next day with the sunlight entering through the window of their hotel room. They took a bath together for the second time and went downstairs for their breakfast. They ate a complete power breakfast of ham, eggs, rice, slices of pineapple, papaya, mangoes and coffee. They needed a lot of energy to power up for the day's activities. They explored the beach the entire morning. Sunbathing in the white sand and swimming in the clear blue sea. They took a lot of nice pictures of themselves while on the beach.
                  By noontime they had lunch. Lunch was delicious Paella and Paella Negra - a dish of yellow sticky rice with bits of pork, chicken, liver, green peas, red and green bell peppers and sticky black rice with squid ink and bits of squid. They had fruit punch for their drink. After that they went back to the hotel to take a bath. After both of them finished taking a bath, each of them has their own agenda - Jacob needs to see his college friend who owns a bar in the island while Violet needs to go shopping for souvenirs of their trip in Boracay Island. So, they said their goodbyes and agreed to meet up for dinner in the bar that is owned by his friend and went their separate ways.
                  Victoria went to the shops and bought souvenir shirts for her Mom and Dad. She also bought bracelets for her and Jacob and some swimwear for herself.
                  Jacob, on the other hand, went to a bar called Miguelitos, which is owned by his college friend named Miguel. As he went inside the bar, he saw that Miguel was already waiting there for him.
                  "Hi Miguel. Wow, it has been quite a long time since we have last seen each other. I missed you, man", said he to his friend while hugging him. The hug lasted for as long as thirty seconds showing that they really missed each other.
                  "Me too man. So, what have you been up to lately? All I know is that you are working as a photographer for a fashion/retail company but how about your personal life? If you are not dating anybody, I would like to set you up with somebody. What can I say, I really believe in second chances, man", said Miguel.
                  Just as he was done talking, somebody came out from the shadows and was on her way to joining them at their table. He suddenly froze, as if he doesn't know what to say and what to do anymore. It's none other than his first love, the one who broke his heart. It's none other than Victoria Arnaiz, his first love and she is looking lovelier than before. She looks more mature and sophisticated now.
                  "What are you doing here? I didn't know that I've been set up", said he looking back and forth from Victoria to Miguel and back to Victoria again.
                  "Well, well, well, nothing is impossible by the use of technology nowadays. He posted on his facebook page that you are going to visit him in his bar here
