"I was born here in California," Everett began. "I grew up not too far from Hollywood." Una asked, "Is that why anda got into film editing?" He replied, "Not exactly, but we'll get to that later. I lived in an average-sized house with my parents. It was bigger than an apartment atau condo, but it was smaller than a mansion. About two and a half years after I was born, Kaitlyn was born." Una asked, "How did anda feel about becoming an older brother?" He smiled. "I was thrilled. Once Kaitlyn was able to walk, she became my shadow. She followed me everywhere, even if she really shouldn't have." Una giggled. She said, "I hope anda two didn't get into too much trouble." He said, "Not really, but we did keep my mother on her toes." Una then asked, "What was growing up with your parents like?" Everett smiled again. He said, "They were very loving and supportive. My mother was always very warm and loving, very patient too. My father was always very kind and he always gave great advice. I could always come to him with any problem." Everett's smile then faded. "I knew my family loved me," he said, "but getting everyone else to like me wasn't always easy. Unfortunately, after I started school, I was bullied a lot."
A few hours later, Una and Everett were comfortably snuggled up together on the couch, sharing the last of Una's chocolates which lay in the open box between them, as the credits rolled on the movie.
"That was so good," murmured Una, her head resting on Everett's shoulder. "You know - I was looking ke hadapan to your plans, whatever they were going to be, but I was really hoping we'd be able to watch this."
Everett gave a small laugh and shook his head. "I wish I'd known. I could have saved myself all this trouble."
Una grinned. "This year, our Valentine's hari plans were on me," she said. "Next tahun I expect it to be your turn."
Everett felt a warm rush at the thought of seterusnya year, that Una was so certain they would be celebrating Valentine's hari together seterusnya year. But then... of course, Everett though. He wouldn't have considered anything different.
"I Cinta you, Una," he said.
"I Cinta anda too, Everett," she said.
"That was so good," murmured Una, her head resting on Everett's shoulder. "You know - I was looking ke hadapan to your plans, whatever they were going to be, but I was really hoping we'd be able to watch this."
