Nandito ako sa Vancouver, kung saan siya nakatira. I was supposed to go Toronto pero naisip ko why not sa Vancouver muna. I wasn't planning on meeting him or even telling him na pupunta ako sa city niya.
Napag isipan ko and I thought to myself, why not see him. It was once in a lifetime decision din yun. So tonight I'm meeting him at the mall.
Kinakabahan ako kasi it's our first time seeing each other outside the screens of our phones. Pero at the same time nae excite kasi makikita ko rin yung taong once na nagpasaya sa akin. Cringy, I know.
4pm yung usapan namin. Supposedly 6pm pero since he's free na around 4pm why not meet him na. We planned on meeting sa isang food court ng isang mall. Typical meet ups.
I'm glad nakilala niya ako agad kasi kapag ako yung naghanap mahihirapan ako sa sira ba naman ng mata ko. He's taller kaya I'm glad.
"Hi" sabay hug sa kanya.
"How was your flight?"
"Okay naman, ang bilis lang ng oras"
It was my first time going on a vacation alone kaya I felt satisfied.
"Anong gusto mong gawin ngayon?" Tanong niya sa akin.
"Idk ikaw taga rito kaya surprised me"
Vancouver's weather is way colder than Alberta. Kahit walang snow at positive yung weather sobrang lamig pa rin kasi dagat sila dito kaya ibang iba yung lamig nila dito.
We rode a train and he brought me to this amazing view. It was so cold but being with him gives warmth to my body.
"Ang ganda dito" I said while watching the breath taking view.
"Palagi naman ako dito pero ngayon ko lang na appreciate yung ganda nito" I can feel the sincerity in his voice while saying those words.
I watch his face as I slowly remembering how I fell inlove with him in the first place. Love conquers all nga. Kahit nasaktan ako sa kanya but right now while I'm with him, all I could think about was holding him and never let go of him because I know once I let go, I can't chase him anymore.
Ngayon lang, magpaka selfish muna ako. Ngayon lang kasiyahan ko muna uunahin ko. I couldn't resist this man. I couldn't stop thinking of him kahit magkasama naman kami.
