This evening while I was taking a walk in the local municipal government's square,which is a very large and popular park for rest and recreations. I encountered again the young couple who live in the same building as I do. The young couple was walking hand in hand from my opposite direction, beaming satisfactorily to each other, as if talking something delightful.

I got to know this couple because that young husband is a colleague of my husband. This couple have been quite impressive, for they don't appear to make a "normal" couple. The husband seems well-built and quite tall,probably 185cm tall while the wife is plump and just a bit more than 150cm tall. It's pretty interesting to see this kind of couple walking hand in hand in the street, like an elder brother holding dearly the hand of his little sister.

We talked for a while in the park. They told me that they had been in love for as long as eight years and got married in the year 2012, and the wife is already in the second month of her pregnancy.

Oh, such an enviably happy young couple! I couldn't help wondering, what have they gone through in the past eight years? What made them remain steadfastly faithful to each other for five years before they finally tied the knot and still having a happy marriage life?

This brings me back to my past memories with my ex-boyfriend years ago. We had been in love for five years and shared quite a lot of joys and sorrows before we eventually broke up, although most people we knew felt optimistic about our future. This also makes me think of my husband, who isn't a bad guy, but with a rarely obstinate character. Then what is true love? And is it really so hard to acquire?
