Closure

today is the Christmas party at kakatapos lang namin kumain light food lang kasi kakain kaming lahat sa labas mamaya after the school hour,kaya oras na ng palaro, unang laro stop dance, i was  partnered with Andrew, some of my friends are parthered with their jowa at ang iba ay sa crush nila pasimuno ng pres!

si Elton malaman ang gf nya. I  were looking at them they look beautiful together, i made a right choice to give him up bagay na bagay silang dalawa i said I'm moving on but nandito parin yung pagmamahal eh pero hindi na ako umaasa sakanya, napailing nalang ako dahil sa mga iniisip ko.

felt Andrew's hand at mycheeks sandwiching my face with both of his hand

" sakin ang tingin tabs ako partner mo ngayon hindi sya, okay?"he said with a smile, tango lang aging sagot ko dahil pisil-pisil nya ang mga pisngi ko at sinunod ang mga sinabi nya, i focus on him and on winning the game but

sa huli natalo kami pero okay lang kasi habang naglalaro ay puro kami tawanan at kulitan, somehow the pain in my heart lessen because of him, he is such a ball of sunshine.

" Andrew" i called him as he guide me to our seats

"Mmm?" He asked

"You're the peace that hugged me amidst all the chaos around me.... Thank you for everything"
I said and held hus hands and kissed the back of it

"No need to say thank you cali taba, I'm doing this on my own choice and  i will always choose to be your peace because you're my strength taba" he said okay na sana kung hindi nya lang pinitik ng malakas yung nuo ko yan tuloy my forehead was read for half an hour!

"Sorry na cali! Pitikin mo rin ako dito oh basta pansinin mo na ako! Ikaw kasi eh ang drama mo!" He said as he saw me his forehead, and took my hand and placed it on top of it. But i didn't flick him back i just stayed quiet to annoy him back

oras na ng pagbibigay ng regalo sa mga nabunot at kaylangan mong magsalita sa harap bago sabihin kung para kanino ito. naunang nagsalita ang host at ang president at sunod sunod na. si Patrick ang nakabunot sakin kaya it's my  turn to speak and give a gift to someone

"it's always 1 step 4ward 3 steps BACK
do you love me, want me
hate me boy I don't understand"

"That's the exact representation of my heart right now but i know my place and i don't what to ruin a relationship because of what i feel. I may or was an undesirable girl kaya you gave me mixed signals before but i want you to know that i loved you. i can now see that everything is clear for you, that you only find my presence homey because I was the only girl you're friends with and i cared a lot, but you're at home with her now and I know she will be your permanent home. Enough of drama haha my gift for you is a perfume."

" why? why perfume you'll asked, i want you to remember that i was part of your life that i was more than just a rival in grades, activities recitation and in solving problems on the white board haha, i want you to remember me as a friend and a sister. Elton Silvester Garcia you're my monito. i wish you all the best, merry Christmas and happy New Year!" And i  walk towards him and gave him my present, he stand up and get the paper bag on my hand with a faint smile and with watery eyes

"can i hug you?" I  asked  he just nod at me so  hug him tight and he hugged me back, it's like hugging the person you didn't see each other for a long time, it's like hugging a loved one who, for a long time we had a fight with and it's a hug of reconciling , it's so healing...

" thank you for the lesson Elton. i wish we could be friends in the future" and tap his back as we let go of each other with tears in our eyes.

"Ali babes sure ka na ba talaga na boyfriend mo na talaga itong tukmol na ito? Tignan mo iyakin pa kesa sayo" pagaasar ko as i point on his face that made everyone in the classroom laugh

It's a merry Christmas indeed....

--------

it's been months almost a year na rin since the Christmas party malapit na kami grumaduate Elton and Alisha is still staying strong. my relationship with them became stronger, and i can finally admit I don't love Elton na i already moved on, my bond with Andrew grew much more to the point na all the people around us says we're together.

"tabs after ng ceremony pwede kita ayain sa simbahan?" sabi nya habang tinitirintas ang buhok ko, he learned to braid my hair because I'm always on a ponytail and he said he wanted to see me in a new hairstyle so he watched a lot of video on YouTube and practiced on my hair this summer while we watch movies

"mmm bakit? papakasalan mo ko?" i joke and laughed at my own joke but he remained silent which made it awkward for me.

"basta after graduation punta tayo sa simbahan ha" he repeat.

"okayyy" i replied and continue to eat the shawarma he gave me.

....

" congratulation Taba, ikaw rin pre" sabi ni elton samin habang naka akbay kay alisha

"Babe ali graduate na tayo! wala ka parin balak paiyakin yang panget na nakaakbay sayo?" seryoso kong tanong na tinawan nya lang at kinasama ng tingin sakin ni elton. Scary!

"hahaha congrats din pre, mauna na kami ni m may pupuntahan pa kami" paalam ni Andrew sakanila.

nauna na umuwi ang parents namin dahil ihahanda pa daw nila ang mga kakainin namin mamaya. Napag usapan nila na sa bahay nalang kami kumain ng dinner with his family as a celebration for our graduation

"tara?" nakalahad ang kamay ni Andrew sa harap ko agad ko itong kinuha at ngumit sakanya. Sabay kaming naglakad patungo sa simbahan.

pagkadating sa simbahan ay nag dasal at nagpasalamat kami kay Lord for guiding us through out the year and for the achievement we achieved, bago tumungo sa harap kung saan nakatayo ng mga nagpapakasal.

"Taba alam kong hindi kapa handa na pumasok sa isang relasyon pero gusto kong sabihin na liligawan kita sa gusto mo man o sa gusto mo" sabi nya habang nakatitig saking mga mata, seryoso at walang mababakas na kalokohan sa mga salitang sinasabi nya

" ang kapal ng mukha mo ano?" sabay hampas sakanya

" sa harap talaga ni Lord ka nagpapakahambog?" He said pero hinampas ko ulit sya at umirap sakanya na ikinatawa nito

"pero true gusto ko yan. manligaw ka muna sakin" sabay ngiti sakanya na nagpatuod sakanyang kinatatayuan

nakangiti akong tumalikod sakanya at naglakad palabas ng simbahan. Para umuwi na nagugutom na ako eh

"mahal!, jusko totoo ba sinabi mo? di ko yata kakayanin, wag ngayon please bukas mo nalang yan sabihin" he said as he hug me from the back

That made me shock and  laugh

"Minahal kita, minamahal at mamahalin pa"
