As our little steps evaded the dance-floor, we decided to just run away like Romeo and Juliet even just for once and found ourselves in an abandoned balcony at the back part of the hall that we once danced in the middle of the enticing tunes.
"To be honest, I'm not really the over the bush person. I'm a little bit sensitive at times and a straightforward person but when it comes to my feelings, I completely just shut down." my hands rested on the little barricades of the little balcony as I lightly pushed him.
"I haven't also said these words," I scratched my nape as I tried to divert my gaze out of embarrassment and for a moment I was finding my own excuse of emergency to just run away from these stingy feelings I have.
"Hindi ko alam kung kelan, saan at anong dahilan. I don't even know how it happened, one day we were in just a cafe talking the next day-it felt like much greater than the butterflies, I could feel the comfort and the way I trust you and your actions even when it's sometimes confusing." tumango siya sa sinabi ko habang nakatingin pa rin sa mga mata kong mapupungay na kahit anong pag-iwas ay pilit pa ring nabibihag ng mata niyang nangungusap.
"I know, everyone knows-just not us." he stroke his hair as he tried to brush off the cold wind. Ako naman ay napakayap nalang sa sarili dahil sa dumaang malamig na hangin.
"We were just quite a bit slow." I joked and he cackled in an instant but he paused a little bit. Hinubad niya ang coat niya at nilagay iyon sa akin.
"Pano ka?"
"Hindi naman masyadong malamig." ngunit nung matapos niyang sabihin ang mga katagang iyon ay bigla naman niyang niyakap ang sarili. Tanging pagtawa lang ang kumawala sa pagitnaan namin. He glared at me but smiled after. Mukhang tanga lang.
"Ok, hindi naman kasi malamig. Sige sabi mo eh." I mocked him na ikinainis naman niya. He just shrugged and held my hand.
"It looks so small beside yours." our hands met and I just can't help but compare its size.
"But it definitely fits on mine." he picked up a line. Siguro kung hindi ko lang siya mahal matagal ko na siya hinampas. But every single word he dropped makes my heart stop in an instant.
"Galawan mo, Aeolus. Paano nalang kung magkaka-pamilya tayo, tas mahawaan ang mga babies ko sa'yo." i lightly slapped his chubby cheeks na ikinatigil naman niya at siguro nag-iisip na siya kung paano ba mag-hunos dili. Wala siyang choice, ako ang nagustuhan niya! Dapat niya panagutan!
"Babies, hmm . . . I bet they're just as good looking as me." sobra yata ang kayabangan niya at nakisabay ang hangin, paano ba kasi, nung sinabi niya 'yon ay biglang humangin. Napayakap tuloy ulit sa sarili.
"Giniginaw ka na, umalis na tayo." hatak-hatak ko pa sakanya, ngunit hinila niya ako pabalik at ihinarap sakanya pagkatapos ay niyakap niya ako, "This is better. An effective human hot pack."
Ginawa ba naman akong produkto? May saltik ba siya?
"Now, let's go back to the topic." nakayakap pa rin siya sa'kin.
While me? I froze, nagdadalawang isip kung yayakap ba pabalik.
"If you were to name our babies, what would it be?" tunog judge niyang tugon sa'kin. Ano ba 'yan, para naman akong sasalang ng miss universe sa tanong niya.
"Uhm . . ." pag-iisip-isip ko habang nakatingin sa buwang nakaharap sa amin, "I don't know yet. I might name it after your name or someone else's name that's very special to me, since i'm a sentimental person."
"That's nice." he muttered, I could even hear his deep breaths as my ears were facing his chest.
"What about you?" I asked and finally hugged him back.
