SERENDIPITOUS HEARTS: A twisted fate

Forgotten Promises C1:

-

"Try to hang-out with Someone ija, You're 23 and you still don't have a boyfriend yet. You're not getting Young Nicole"

Mom said. 

tahimik lang akong napabusangot sa tinuran niyang iyon. What being good for hanging with someone I'm not interested to be with?  What sense of having boyfriend in such a young age if it's just a puppy love or whatever you may call it.

*Sighed*

"How about going to a blind date? That must be fun right?"

she laughed.

"tss, seriously mom? At my age? blind date? Oh No, that is just for teens"

I rolled my eyes at itinuon ang pansin ko sa laptop.

Hindi naman sa Choosy ako sa mga taong nakakasalamuha ko or choosy sa lalaking mamahalin ko.  I just don't have interest of dating anyone.

I am 26 and still single. still not having a  plan of settling down. 

"Daughter, Don't be afraid of men, They're not harmful and try to get out of your cage, You're 26 for pete sake. Yung mga batchmates mo puro kinasal na pero ikaw , you seems like not having plan of settling down."

"Because I really don't have, Mom"

I said at tsaka naglakad patungo sa kwarto ko. 

I heard her sighed pero di ko nalang iyon pinansin. Pipilitin lang niya akong makipagdate kung kani-kanino at ayaw ko nang ganon.

Marami naman akong dumaan na manliligaw before.  pero hanggang ligaw lang sila ,hindi naman nila kayang panindigan.

I had crushes pero hindi na hihigit doon.  The truth is, There's someone I am waiting to Comeback. That's the reason why I'm not dating anyone. I'm waiting for my first love to comeback.

"I'll be back, I promise"

that's the exact word he said before he left. He promised me to comeback so I'll wait for him. No matter what happens.

I got back to my senses when I heard my phone rings. It's my bestfriend.  Why is she calling me again at this early hour.

"Yes?"

"Alexa! Good morning" 

She exclaimed.  Ano na naman kayang magandang nangyari sa kaniya ngayong umaga at mukhang ang saya saya na naman niya.

"Hmm morning. Why did you call me?"

Deretsong tanong ko.

"Uhm, are you busy?"

"It's my day off. So I'm not busy" 

I answered.

"Great, Can I ask you out? for a lunch? please bestfriend!"

"What for?"

"Duh I just missed you! "

"We've been seeing each other every day in office, having lunch together  everyday, Going home together and you're still missing me? You won't call if it's not necessary so tell me, what for?"

Walang gana kong salaysay.

"Uhm okay fine, Actually There's someone I want you to meet. Hihihi"

she chuckled.

"Nathasia, You know I'm not interested"

"Tss. Hindi ko sya ipapakilala para ireto sayo noh. He's my boyfriend. I want you to meet my boyfriend, Alexa pumayag ka na"
