Athena's Sentiment

______________________________________________

Dear Athena Isabella,

The most beautiful woman I ever met. I am not really fond of writing love letters but for you, I will. Gusto ko pa nga sanang sulat kamay para malaman mo kung gaano ako ka-seryoso but I really want to hear your answer to my question badly kaya in-encode ko nalang. Next time, it will be handwritten. When I met you last year ago, damn, I saw an angel, an art, a very strong and gorgeous woman. I'm quite unsure if I fell in love at first sight kasi lagi naman akong nahuhulog sa tuwing nakikita kita

I am asking for you to give me a chance to give you the love and happiness that you deserve. I will study and become successful to provide everything that you need and want. I won't fail you. Simula't sa una palang, alam kong may nararamdaman na ako sayo but I hid it. Ginusto kong itago muna para mapalapit sayo but hindi ko na napigilan e. Noon, nahihiya ako kasi wala pa naman akong maipagmamalaki sayo pero isinantabi ko na sayo 'yon ngayon. Athena, I may not have anything material to offer you now but I have my respect, my time, my attention, my faithfulness, my trust and my love to offer you. Mas matimbang naman 'yon, hindi ba?

May mga oras na siguro nagseselos ako, naipagdadamot kita pero sana hindi mo naiisip na pinagbabawalan kita. I just want you to be mine but since I do not have any title yet, hanggang selos nalang muna ako. I do not have any plans to keep you away from things that gives you happiness. Gusto lang kitang ilayo sa mga bagay na kumukulong sayo. The universe knows how much I am willing to sacrifice just for you to be mine. Pero, hindi ako nagmamadali. I want you to think and think and think. Kasi ako, isang taon ko rin 'tong pinagisipan, then now, I just pictured myself with you, and our children. Pucha, pati yata sa paghuhugas ng pinggan, ikaw ang nasa isip ko.

I know that there are trust issues occurring inside you. Nasasaktan ka ngayon, at ang hinihiling ko lang ay hayaan mo akong tulungan ka na palitan yung sakit ng saya. Alam ng Panginoon kung gaano kita kagustong makasama. Athena, kung bibigyan man ako ng tatlong kahilingan, tatlong beses kitang hihilingin.

A woman like you must not settle for less. That's why I am here, doing everything to make you smile, even just the simple things that I can. Yung mga gifts, siguro delayed muna hahahaha. If you will give me a chance, I will give you the best of me. All my love and care, I will give them to you. Because you gave me a reason to believe in a woman's love again. Nobody got me smiling, kahit nga sa klase, nakatingin sa cellphone, nagdidilig o nagbubuhat, nakangiti ako kasi ikaw ang nasa isip ko. And damn them, for letting you experience the pain that you do not deserve.

Athena Isabella, you are the most precious girl I have in my life. I treasure you more than gemologist treasure the diamonds and stone. You know why? Because you are more than those, you are more than anything in this universe. Maybe, I sound exaggerating but it is the truth. Hindi ko alam pero ikaw ang pinakamahalagang tao sa akin dito sa mundo, at sa buong buhay ko.

But, Athena. Do not rush your decision. Let's not rush, I am more than willing to wait for your answer. If you're unsure, I will wait. If you are not yet ready, I will wait. If you don't trust me enough, I will wait. Maghihintay ako kahit gaano katagal dahil abot langit ang kasiguraduhan ko sayo.

Athena, you are my moon, my sun, my galaxy, my universe. You are my everything.

Love,

Kairo

"Mare, saan lakad mo?" lumingon ako kay Rey na humahabol sa akin sa likod ko.
