THE UNWRITTEN LOVE LETTER
FINALE

NEVER KNEW THAT YOU WERE THE ONE
Dennise was looking at stephany without even blinking.Dennise felt as if she had known Stephany for years.She had no idea how Stephany would look like as she had never described her appearance in her diary.
With front hair fringes falling in her face,the hands with long nails bringing her hair behind her ears with aqua blue eye colour enhanced by her egyptian eyeliner wing.Her eyes sparkled when she smiled, and her smile lit up the room.She had smile lines but they looked adorable on her.Her cheeks turning pink every time she bursted out laughing.She looked like the epitome of cuteness.
Dennise got down the stairs while staring at Stephany. Dennise was sure that the woman in the couch was the owner of the diary.She couldn’t take her eyes off Steph. She wondered why Noah didn’t fall in love with this woman in the first place. Joe went outside to talk with the guy who accompanied Stephany.
Now Mavis and Stephany were all alone. As they started talking about their college life, Denise joined them. Mavis was surprised because Dennise was a shy kid who refuses to talk to strangers. Mavis always wanted Dennise to meet Stephany someday. Mavis asked her daughter why she was staring and smiling at Stephany for such a long time.
Dennise said that Stephany looked really gorgeous. Stephany turned pink when she heard what Dennise said. Stephany couldn't control her laughter.She told Mavis that it was hard to not fall in love with their college beauty. Mavis told Dennise that she wouldn’t have said this if she knew her. Dennise said to herself, " I know her better than you, Mom."
Mavis told Stephany that she was surprised when she married him because neither of them had told anyone that they liked each other. Stephany interrupted her and urged her to recall who had proposed to whom. Dennise was even more thrilled to learn that Steph had married the love of her life. Stephany received a call out of the blue. "Yay, your customized paintings will be arriving by September 10," she replied. Mavis inquired about her company's progress.
Dennise asked Stephany what business they were talking about. Mavis intended to irritate Stephany after a long time, so she told Dennise that this aunt had started a customised portrait business after discovering her passion towards painting while we were in college.Steph got furious and told Dennise not to call her aunt. She asked Dennise to treat her like an elder sister, and if she did that, Steph promised to tell her about her parents' love story.
When Mavis was about to say something, Dennise interrupted her and told her she wanted to know Stephany’s love story instead. Steph and Mavis glanced at each other and shared a smile, as they never expected this response. Steph inquired about Dennise's interest in her love story. Dennise stated that she was simply curious because she had to write an essay on human emotions, and the topic assigned to her was love.Dennise asked Steph to help her with her assignment.

Stephany was silent for a split second when she heard the word love. Mavis advised Dennise to stop bothering Steph, but Steph agreed to assist Dennise. Stephany stated that love is a powerful word that may both build and ruin a person's life. Love is not  changing yourself or hiding your flaws in order to attract the attention of the person you love. It's all about accepting each others imperfections and living life with mutual understanding. It wasn't only about having butterflies when you saw someone, but about knowing their feelings just by looking at them.
Dennise felt proud like a close pal, when she realised that the girl who thought love is about altering yourself to win their attention was now matured enough to define what true love was.Steph told Dennise that she had to ask the guy who proposed her about their love story, but she just gave her the clue that they went to the same college. Dennise saw her father and the guy entering their house. Dennise could hear the guy’s voice. He had a deep voice. Steph explained what favour I asked from her and asked him to narrate their love story.

The guy looked at Joe. Joe nodded, giving the approval sign. Dennise asked Steph whether she wrote any diaries to remember the moments. Steph said that she used to write a diary every day to treasure the memories of the day and added that she lost her diary after her parents wedding day. She said that after losing that diary, she stopped writing diaries, else she would have told her love story without even missing a single detail.

Dennise asked Steph which was her favourite room in this house.Steph stated that this was her first visit to this place. Dennise was surprised since she thought Stephany owned the house. Dennise was confused after discovering that it was not Steph's home and that she had lost her old diary. She also remembered Steph distinctly mentioning in her diary that she had lost the painting she had prepared to propose to Noah.Denise suspected that someone else knew Stephany had loved Noah after connecting all the scenarios.

She asked her father, who had went inside the kitchen to get lemonade, to find out who had previously owned the house. He replied that the former owner of the house was Steph's husband. Dennise was staring at the man who was wearing a burnt orange hoodie and grey track pants.

Dennise came to the living room with utter confusion. Steph asked Dennise whether she wanted to hear their story. Steph said that they even went to the same painting class, which was held in their campus.

The guy wanted to tell his side of the story first before Steph. He told that he was the first one to fall in love. He began telling their love story from the beginning.He said ,"It was my first day to college. As I walked past the cafeteria, I noticed a girl wearing a black sheer top standing in the corner, talking to herself. I gazed at her, wondering who that weirdo was, and I could tell she was worried about something. Her eyes revealed that something was bothering her. She approached me, but she abruptly backed off due to some commotion and ran towards her class ".

"She had a spark in her eyes.I saw her again in the cafeteria that day with a guy. I think it was Alex. She seemed to be looking for someone. I rushed to see her face again, but she walked away with Alex. I ran towards the indoor stadium. She turned again. That was the first time I saw her face. She saw her smiling that day. That smile really got me.I liked her but never fell in love with her.I never saw her again, but one day when I was in the chemistry lab along with my peers,a girl ran towards us and knocked me down. That girl was Miss. Stephany, due to the slippery floor, spilled a chemical on her hand.She dashed over to wash her hands, not realising she had pushed me.I came to know that she belonged to the Chemical Engineering Department. "

"I was on the call with Joe when they played truth or dare in their tour. As Joe didn't hang up, I heard her description of love. After hearing her words about love, I wanted to know her personally. As a member of the college band, I took part in the music fiesta. I was paired with a girl who had a sweet voice. I didn't even realize it was her until she appeared in the final round. She looked stunning on that day.I couldn’t take my eyes off of her. I looked for her after they declared the results, but she was celebrating with her friends Noah and Alex.I enrolled in Noah's portrait class only to see her every day. After that, I never spoke to her again.During that time, many incidents made me fall in love with her. "

“I mustered up my courage to speak to her at your parents wedding. I would have even proposed to her if she had danced with me that night. She switched her dance partner with Everly. It was my time to switch partners, but she left the dance floor to raise a toast to your parents. I went to speak to her but accidentally spilled the wine as I got flustered even before speaking to her. I had a black satin shirt with me. I asked Everly to give that shirt to Steph so that she could change her clothes.I asked Everly to bring me Steph’s gown as I wanted to dry clean her clothes and apologise to her." Steph will tell you the rest of the story. 

The guy looked at Steph while Steph looked shocked. She hit him on his shoulder. She thanked me as she didn’t know that her man had fallen for her since their college days. She said that he had known her after the music fest.

Steph continued the story, " I didn’t know who gave the shirt and I gave my gown to Everly.I went to my room after the party was over. The next day, I asked Everly for the gown. Everly said that the guy who gave her the black shirt took the gown for dry cleaning. I waited for him in the party hall. I was surprised when I saw him. I never expected that the guy who gave me the black shirt was the guy with whom I participated in the music fest.”

“ He asked me to wait for one or two days as he gave the gown for dry cleaning. I too asked him some time to return his black shirt. We started talking about our plans after college. He said he would continue his job and was planning to start an open mic event every Saturday. I told him I was planning to start a business.”

" I didn’t expect him to confess to me that day. I was completely perplexed for a moment. I couldn’t say anything. I told him I was not in the state of falling in love with someone. I told him that I prioritize my career at that point of time. He asked me to give him a chance. At that time,I was already facing a lot of changes in my life and was recovering from all the changes. I couldn't believe what he said. I told him that I can't promise to love him now and I needed time to build my business. "

"We haven’t talked for a year. I thought he had given up on the thought of marrying me. I got a call from a laundry shop to collect my clothes from the shop. I started to do well in my business during the same year. When I went to collect my clothes, I saw this man once again in my life. It was a Saturday. The laundry shop’s owner gave me a free pass to an open mic event on the next street. I was free that day, so I went to the event. To my surprise, the event was conducted by my man. He asked me out in public. I thought of giving him a chance.”

"I went on a date with him. We talked about every single thing. He treated me just like I wanted to be treated by the love of my life. At the end of the date, he asked me to open the bag given by the laundry man. To my surprise, this crazy guy planned every single thing on that day. The bag had the gown I wore for your parents' wedding. I asked him why he tricked me. He told him he wanted me to go on a date with him. He asked me whether I would like to go on another date with him. I returned the bag to him and left the place without saying anything.”

"I dropped a text in his chat box that I would collect the gown on our next date after returning his black shirt. Then a few dates slowly changed to many. It was a rainy day, and I was in my office. This guy came to see me while I was in my offfice. He grabbed my hands and drove me in his car to our college garden. We were standing under the old willow tree.It was only drizzling at that time, I already knew this guy was crazy, but he proved himself to be the most craziest person, I have ever seen when he asked me to dance with him in the rain. I liked him at the time, so I joined him in the dance. After the dance, He kneeled down and opened the wedding ring box.He finally said those four words, "Will you marry me ?". I didn’t even think for a second and immediately said yes. This is how Miss.Stephany Carlos married Mr.Nicholas Willamson and changed into Mrs. Stephany Willamson.”

Steph asked how Noah was doing. Joe told Noah was working as a research scientist and started drawing kids' comic books to never lose his passion towards painting. Mavis asked about Alex and Everly. Steph said, "Alex moved back to Bahington to take up the job of analytical chemist, and Everly moved to Paris to complete her Masters in Engineering. Long-distance relationships are difficult, but they are doing their best to make it work."

Dennise went to take a look at the wooden chest again. This time she opened the photo album. It was Nicholas's album, and most of the photos were taken during their college days. She found a letter in the photo album. It was obvious it was written by Nicholas. It was Nicholas’s wedding vow that he had striken down. Dennise started to read the vow, "Dear Carlos, I knew I had fallen for you when I saw you crying under the willow tree.I found the painting you were searching for before you did. I took the paintings to Joe’s wedding to return them back to you. I saw you throwing your diary in the trash and crying way too much than yesterday. I can't help but to read your diary out of curiosity but later realised you deserved someone better. I wanted to be there for you, so I didn’t want to miss my chance to be with you. Some people are destined to be with them in love, while others are meant to be with someone else. I promise to love you until the world ends. will to take my hand in marriage". She closed the wooden chest and locked it .

While Steph was talking to Mavis and Joe, Dennise was searching for Nicholas. She gave Nick the key to the wooden chest. Nick realised that Dennise had read Steph's diary. Nick asked Dennise whether she wanted to say anything. Dennise smiled and said she was glad that Steph had found someone who loved her unconditionally, as she deserved a true love. She asked Nick whether Steph knew that he had read her diary. He replied whenever he tried tell her , he had a feeling that the memories of the past will hurt her even more. So he somehow tried to return her old diary to her before asking her hand in marriage. When she saw the old diary,she threw the diary in the trash, but this time she was happy to let go of her past. Nick returned the key to Dennise, saying that they had already moved on from their past.

Steph and Nick left their house after a while. Before leaving, Dennise and Nicholas were smiling at each other. When they parted ways ,Dennise realised that Steph is now living with someone who loves and adores her, though her love for Noah remained untold like the unwritten love letters.
