Hello There, David

IV-I have a Dream

David Kang POV

I have to admit. She is not pretty but there's something in her that made me want to talk to her more. Kung di lang dumating yung kaibigan ko eh di sana magkasama pa kami. Nakakatuwa Kasi siya. Di mo alam kung galit o ano. Yung cheeks nya na medyo chubby namumula tapos yung mga mata niya nangingislap, nangungusap. Medyo may pimples din siya pero bagay naman sa mukha niya. Di siya ang ideal girl ko pero ibang klase siya. Ang tapang tapang niya at pinaglalaban ang karapatan niya. Para siyang si Empress Ki, maganda siya at matapang. Para tuloy akong si Emperador Togon.

Parang.... Parang....

Naku di pala pwede.

Di pa handa ang puso kong mag mahal. Di ko siya pwedeng mahalin.

I am David Kang. I lied to Maggie. It's not true that I have to run away from home because they want me to marry some random Korean girl. The truth is, I had to leave because I am running away from my brokenness.

Her name is Minhee. We were together for almost 4 years. She was my first love and so am I. Pero something happened along the way and she turned down my proposal. That time when I know in my heart that she is the one for me. Na siya na yung nakikita kong makakasama ko habambuhay. Yung magkakaroon kami ng sariling pamilya.

It was painful. The pain was killing me everyday. Araw- araw, I would drown myself in alcohol thinking that doing so would ease the pain.

I was surfing the net when I learned more about the Philippines. My brother was planning on starting his business here but changed his mind. The situation here is not safe. There's war and the economy is not good. But then, I was attracted to the pictures of the different beaches in the Philippines. I am a triathlete so I thought of why not give it a try. Mukhang mag-eenjoy ako sa Pilipinas. Isa pa I have a close Filipino friend who is like a brother to me. At malay mo, dito ko na rin makita ang the one. Well, I am hoping.

Good thing I did. Dahil, dahil nakilala ko si Maggie. Well. Erase that, good thing I did dahil matutulungan ko si Maggie na tuparin Ang pangarap niya. Yun Kasi Ang Dream KO. Dream kong tuparin Ang Dream Ng ibang Tao. Ganun kabuti Ang puso KO. Sabi nga nila, busilak.

Okay. Tama kayo. Di Lang basta ibang tao si Maggie. Ewan KO ba, I don't believe in love at first sight Pero parang... Parang may ginawa siya dito sa puso ko. Excited na tuloy akong magkita kami bukas. Ano kayang mangyayari? This is not love. I know. But I am enjoying this feeling, the feeling of excitement and curiosity at the same time. Malay mo siya na ang the one. Alam ko medyo maaga pa para sabihin ko yun pero wala namang masama siguro kung bibigyan ko ang puso ko ng pagkakataong magmahal muli.

Kumakain pa kaya siya? Sana binilhan ko siya Ng Korean ice cream. Magugustuhan niya yun. Ano kaya kung balikan ko siya? Tapos tawagan ko na lang yung friend ko? Magpapadala na lang ako ng driver, ganun na lang. Pero kaso baka naman sumama yung loob ng friend ko.

Ano kaya kung tawagan ko na lang si Maggie? Pero teka, yung number niya. Yung number niya di KO nakuha. Paano ko siya macocontact? I'm screwed. Too bad. I just hope that she will keep her promise. Pero paano kung di na siya bumalik? Paano kung di ko na siya makita. No. It should not happen. I have to go back. Maggie, please, please wait for me.
