Valentines came and went. In a blink of an eye, there are no more roses, chocolates and candies selling at ridiculous marked-up prices. We celebrated our Valentines a day later as I could only manage to get leave on the 15th instead of the 14th.

Our “Valentines” date started out with an eventful dramatic morning with a HUGE fight over petty issues (oh oh! there goes the beautiful date!). However, we manage to met out our differences and still had a wonderful day ahead.

While still slightly sulking from our fight, we decided to catch P.S. I Love You as planned. The movie starring Hilary Swank and Gerard Butler (300) was based on the titular book written by Cecilia Ahern. Basically, the story is about a woman, Holly (Hilary Swank) learning how to move on with her life after the death of her husband, Gerry (Gerard Butler). The plot here may seem typical of such other romantic chic movie, however, Holly was being guided on how to move on with her life from her dead husband through his letters of encouragement which he prepared before his death.

Fai and I both really liked this movie as it pretty much depicts us. Both characters entirely dependent on each other. Since the character that died in the movie is the husband, it showed how his wife is coping without his presence in her life. And if the roles were reversed, it will be the wife guiding the husband through her letters.

Halfway through the movie, when Holly (Hilary Swank) said, “We do not have a clue to what we want exactly”, Fai went like, “OMG! That is so true.” LOL!

Watching the movie and reviewing our current relationship at the moment was like dejavu. It was like a movie about us except for the fact that we’re not married, Fai is not dead and our parents do not hate either of us.

Having not read the book first (it helps as I’ve no expectation of the movie), I must say I am very much impressed with both the author and the director for bringing to life such a wonderfully scripted book. The cast of the movie also played vital roles in displaying their emotions which managed to tug the strings of my heart. I was tearing through out the entire movie.

P.S. I Love You, reflected not only the essence of my relationship but also to many out there. And at the end of the day, I treasured the person next to me most for always being there for me.

To satisfy my next tear-jerker crave, I am definitely going to read the book written by the brilliant Cecilia Ahern (I’ve already read Where Rainbow Ends. WONDERFUL!)
