Title of the Story

First Paragraph: the story takes place in makati Philippines where the story was all about
the forbidden love of a Filipino man and a Chinese woman.but they cannot be together because
their fates does not match. The Filipino named Conrado lopez fell deeply in love for the first time in
his thirties, and the Chinese woman named Alice tan used to own a small grocery run by her
parents and an expert of fixing electricity things. The story its self was very meaningful and has a
lot of authentic sounds to it. But at the same time its just like a normal love story but what makes
it different is by the characters who has different nationalities.
Second Paragraph:
As the story passes by I always want to know what going to happen in the next scene and
it makes me think what will going to happen in the ending of the story.and the ending of
the story was sad and disappointing because at the end of the story alice tan and conrado
lopez did not get together even tough mr. Lopez tried everything just for alice tan’s father
mr. Tan accepts mr.lopez to be in love and marry alice tan but in the end alice found her
husband and the story did not live happily ever after. I think the story is original maybe
because of the characters and where the story takes place.
Third Paragraph:
over all the story was good but not great because the story its self has a lot of goods and
bad’s to it, because in my opinion or in my own styles of stories is what I want is for the
lovers to be together in the end of the story but no they did not and in addition I think
every body wants a happy ending in each story or movie but all in all the story was clear
enough to understand and for me I would still recommend this to other to also hear there
own opinions about it.
