Airports are always full of emotions. Some are heartbroken for having to say goodbye to loved ones, while others are filled with utter joy as they are reunited with friends and family.
The people who are in the airport make it one of the most intriguing places you could possibly be. There’s always something going on wherever you look.
Airports are always filled with emotions.
You might or might not cry while reading the story we have today. But do not fear; if any, you will be crying for all the good (and beautiful) reasons!
At the Van Nuys FlyAway station at LAX in Los Angeles, California, Valerie Jane was waiting to board the bus when she spotted an older guy who stuck out among the other passengers.
He was difficult to miss.
That’s because the man was clutching a box of chocolates and a bouquet of flowers in each hand. 80-year-old Bernard Mills was obviously looking forward to his wife’s arrival.
In an effort to capture the tender reunion, Valerie grabbed out her phone and began recording the man as her heart simply melted at the sight of him waiting for his love there.
It was the sweetest thing to witness.
After a while, Carolyn, Bernard’s wife, finally showed up. The lovely couple immediately had the greatest smiles on their faces as soon as they spotted one another.
Before the video was over, they gave each other a couple of long embraces and tender kisses. The video makes it quite evident that these two were still very much in love.
This kind of love seems rare these days.
Valerie posted the adorable video on YouTube, and as was predicted, it quickly gained the attention of the internet world.
“As I was waiting to get onto the bus at Van Nuys Flyaway, I notice this old man standing with roses and chocolates in his hand waiting for his wife to come from the airport,” Valerie captioned. “This shows the epitome of love. My heart melted and it showed me that this kind of love exists.”
It’s the kind of love we all long for.
Contrary to popular belief, Bernard and Carolyn have not been together for very long. After both having been married for almost 50 years, they each lost their spouses. Three years after they first connected on the dating service eHarmony in 2007, they got married.
Later, it was discovered that Carolyn had traveled to Delaware for a wedding for two weeks. Bernard must have sorely missed her during her absence since he was so happy to see her when she landed at the airport.
The love between Bernard and Carolyn is a testament that anybody can discover true love at any time. Love does not choose a time and place. If it’s meant to be, it will definitely be.
Indeed, this love exists… and these two gave the world so much hope!
Check out the video below to witness the beautiful reunion.
