Happiness

While You Were Sleeping (1995)

This is the story that started with a lie with a twist of love. Lucy, who works at a transit station sees her longtime crush, Peter every day on his way to work. One morning, Peter fell off to the rails of the train and Lucy saved his life. While at the hospital, when Lucy was not allowed to visit him inside his room because she wasn’t a family member, she whispers to herself, “I was gonna marry him”, not knowing that a nurse, not from a far, heard this and told everyone that she was Peter’s fiance. Peter, while in a coma, doesn’t know this. Lucy played along with this situation until Peter’s brother, Jack came to visit. Jack was intrigued about Lucy and started asking her questions. This lead to Lucy and Jack hanging out more often. Lucy knew within herself that she’s falling inlove with Jack, and although not subtly, Jack feels the same. Though in Jack’s mind Lucy was still going to marry his brother, he tried to convince himself that they were not going to work out. The day came when Peter is up from his comma, remembers everything, except being engaged. With the help of a family friend, Peter was convinced to marry Lucy since she did save his life. At the altar on the day of the marriage, Lucy couldn’t help herself anymore and admitted he was indeed inlove with Jack, told the story about not being engaged with Peter. It all boiled down with them going separate ways for the mean time, until Jack visited Lucy at the transit station to propose to her.
