"Who ever would have thought I'd meet my prince charming in a garden I've set aside to mourn?" Juliana said with her face all light up from the thought. She penned down his name on her diary and reminisced on what had transpired on that day, careful not to miss a detail.
"Gard" she wrote, "who bears such a name?" She asked, letting out a smile.

On a fateful Thursday morning, Juliana had gone out to a garden she had set aside to mourn each time she was heartbroken when suddenly she felt a soft touch on her shoulder. She opened her eyes to see a gentleman wearing a black jacket and a cute smile. She had always thought the garden was a lonely place, seeing this gentleman only made her wonder how many times she had been seen here crying like a baby. She ignored him and buried her head once again.
"Hi, I'm Gard. Do you also come here to let your heart out?" He asked. Juliana paused sobbing, turned to look at him once again, then wiped off her tears.
"Who are you?" She asked, "and why did you ask?" She added.
"I came here for the same reason, and now that I've found a friend, we can both share our problems and cry even harder," Gard said, making Juliana laugh.

They sat for a few hours talking and they both realized they had so many things in common.
"Why can't we meet under these trees, in this garden to share our pain?" Gad suggested. And gradually they became fond of each other, meeting to share their thoughts.

"Let's meet under the trees, today I'll be sharing with you something different, not pain, but something that has brought joy into my heart" Gard told her on phone. For some minutes Juliana wondered what it could be, she had something to tell him too, but she was skeptical of his feelings for her. Hastily she dressed up and walked down to the garden not minding the rain that was drizzling, and there was Gard holding an umbrella.

Gard quickly invited her to join him under the Umbrella.
It was autumn, the beautiful tree leaves were withered on the floors and the tree leaves colorful, making the environment welcoming.
"I've always shared my pains, but today I want to talk about someone who has made me happy. It's you Juliana, and if you'll give me a chance, let's make a beautiful love story together"

Juliana let down her pen, and ran her hands on the ring she wore. What title should I give this journey of love? She thought, "Love in a strange land," she said.
