RANDOM STORIES

[°•TO WAIT•°]

   Highschool, grade 9, iyon ang time na nakilala ko s'ya. She's been my bestfriend when we're grade 9 as I transferred in their school at siya lang ang naglakas loob na lumapit at kausapin ako at sabihing 'bestfriend' na n'ya ako agad. Tulala man ay tinanggap ko ang offer n'ya kahit na hindi ko s'ya kilala except the feeling na magaan ang loob ko sa kanya unang kita palang.

  So, here's exactly what happened after 3 years at nasa grade 12 na kami n'un. She told me that she likes me, no, I mean, she loves me. I ask her why, but she answered me a smile and clung to my arms as we walk to the pathway heeding to the parking lot and bid goodbye, nagflying kiss pa s'ya sa'kin na kinailing ko na lang as she get in to their car at ako na inaabangan ang pag-alis n'ya at ang paghatid ng tingin sa sasakyang lulan nito papalayo bago naglakad palabas sa gate ng school.

"Henry, I like you—" a girl said," oh erase that, I love you, Henry and not as a friend."

"Oh, shit," he uttered as the memory flashes to his mind, he closed his eyes then open and close again as if doing it can erase the thought who's bugging him, but seeing the face of her made him think more and smile like an idiot.

"Maybe, I should fall asleep and don't think of my silly girl bestfriend, maybe she eat something bad," he convince to his self and tried to closed his eyes, but then, her smile again flash to his mind and the sound of her laughter make him sleep with his lips tilted up making a lopsided smile and uttered something like, " I guess you're in my dream now and can't forget that easily, Leyla."

A familiar scents filled my nose when I woke up in my bed and seeing the woman I love in my arms while snoring cutely and her hands moving slowly as if finding a thing she wants to hold as she found it, she grab it (my arms) and back again to her peaceful sleep. I chuckled and pulled her to me, hugging her tight as I planted a kiss on her forehead. How I love this woman who perfectly fits in my arms, the pointed nose and the rossy cheeks I love to pinch, the curve of her face and lips who I love to trace and kiss, and her long thick eyelashes in her eyes that beneath of it is the lovely amber  eyes that I love to stare everytime and always making me lost and bring us to a paradise where we both exist and no one could bother our world we both designed.

But, as the time passes by on how we easily become a bestfriend and turn into lovers, we broke apart. I remember, when I step in to their house I heard an argument coming from her and her parents.

"Leyla, break up with him," her parent said.

"No, ma mahal ko po si Henry, mahal po namin ang isa't isa alam n'yo po iyon diba?"

"Yea, but what love can do to the both of you? He's just a poor guy at wala s'yang maibigay sa'yo pagdating ng araw Pag naging kayo.

"Dad? Do you hear what you're saying? We're still studying pa naman at magkakaroon kami ng trabaho pagdating ng panahon pagkatapos namin mag-aral, so bakit kailangan pang paghiwalayin kami?"

Natuod ako sa kinatatayuan ko while having argument to myself kung papasok ba ako sa loob o hindi dahil alam kong mahalaga ang pinag-uusapan nila, but then he should be middle of their conversation dahil relationship naman nila Leyla ang pinag-uusapan at ngayon n'ya lang napag-alamang mababa pala ang tingin sa kanya ng mga magulang ni Leyla sa katulad n'yang hindi kasing yaman ng girlfriend n'ya.

"Because we found someone much for you, hija," from what the father of Leyla said, his thought stop and his heart skip a beat as if he just unclearly heard it.

"What!?" She exclaimed.

"Yes, anak. Rico, your childhood sweetheart will be your partner or lover and not him, Henry the guy you told us." Her mama said with the finality tone.

"Ma!Pa! You can't do this to me," she said, and can hear her little sobs that make him  flench and closed his fist wanting to punch someone. Not her queen, Leyla allowed to cry like that, she deserves to cry because of the tears of joy and not just like that damn, it's giving him heartache hearing those sobs from her queen. He left in Leyla's house while calming his self to burst out his anger, he should calm and think a plan.

"Henry, I miss you," she said as she hug me tight, I pushed him a little and wipe her tears and smiled as I answered," I miss you more, my queen."

She hug me tight again and murmured to my ears, " I love you, Henry, my king. Always remember that, I won't stop loving you unless god want to take away my life for you and not the people around us."

I nodded and hug her also holding back my tears to fall, we know our relationship would end here but not our love because we'll wait for the right time for us that we could still met again. I answered her, "And I love you more, Leyla, tell my last breath,  I won't forget you cause you will always engraved to my heart and mind."

We stand still, hugging and hearing our heartbeats where we both understand as I slowly down to her face looking to her lips wanting to kiss and tell her how much I love her and bring her to the paradise we both make were we only exist and no one could bother us as we both closed our eyes.
