Halos mapatalon na ako sa tuwa ng kunin ko ang laman ng brown paper bag. Wooden music box ang nandoon ng patugtugin ko, halos maluha na ako dahil yun yung kinanta ko sa bonfire namin sa La Union.



"Thank you love" agad ko siyang niyakap at pinatakan ng halik sa labi niya.




"Do you like it?" He asked.



"Like? I love it" tuwang tuwa kong sabi sakanya.



I'm happy because it's my favorite song and my favorite person gave it to me. It's nice to be serious, I mean something like this, you are commiting to the person you love. I have never experienced this with my ex before.




"I will also give you something" inabot ko sakanya ang puting paper bag at inilabas naman niya ang kahon doon. Nagulat pa siya ng marinig na meron din akong ibibigay sakanya. Syempre hindi pwedeng ako lang bibigyan niya.





On my birthday he gave me a necklace and his initials were on it. So I thought of giving him a necklace with my initials on it.



"I will not take it off" he kissed me. His lips are so soft. Damn i think im obsessed.




"You deserve to be happy love" saad ko sakanya.



"I will stay at least an hour in your condo" sabi niya. "sabay tayong mag devotion babe".




shocks.  This is my dream before that the man I love will accompany me in devotion, he will accompany me in prayer.  Is he that person Lord?.





He drove to my condo.  When we got there I told him I would just change my clothes.





"Dito nalang tayo sa room ko" saad ko. Para tahimik.





He picked up his belongings and stood up, and walked to my room.





we started devotion, we prayed first and read the bible verse to each other and we also did closing prayer.





It's so nice to feel like I'm doing this to the person I love. this man, he's different, if I have to choose anything every day it's him. I will choose him every day, I will love him every day.  Even if i have a problem i promise god as long as i am with him i will not be afraid.




"Love anong oras na dito ka na kaya muna matulog" request ko sakanya ng matapos kami mag devotion. Wala akong iniisip na iba, gusto ko lang siyang makasama. Tsaka sabado naman bukas kaya sabay na din kami pumunta sa church ang sabi niya tutugtog na daw siya.




"is that okay with you?" Tanong niya, I trust him, and we know we haven't proven anything yet so we won't do that thing.



"Of course" nakatayo ako sa harap niya habang siya ay nakaupo sa kama ko, niyakap niya ako sa bewang habang ako ay hinahaplos ko ang buhok niya.



"babe, when we graduate, let's live together in the same house" sabi ko sakanya inangat niya ang tingin saakin at tumango.




"that's also my plan love" sabi niya. Kasama na ako sa plano niya.




He will graduate earlier than me because he and my older brother are the same age.  My brother is 2 years older than me.  I'm in my 2nd year of college, they are graduating this year.  Shit oo nga.





"what are your plans after you graduate?" I asked him.



"i will work in daddy's company, tatanggapin ko lahat ng project para makaipon, for our future" seryosong sabi niya.




he even told me what he planned to do when I graduated.  Then he took a bath and lent him the clothes left by my  brother. Pag nadalaw kasi si kuya dito nakikiligo din siya tapos naiiwanan niya yung ibang damit niya kaya pinapalabhan ko na din.



I was about to get up from my seat when aren suddenly came out of the bathroom, he was wearing only house shorts but no clothes on top while his towel was on his neck. I immediately averted my eyes because my face got heated because of that.




Nagdamit na siya at tumabi sakin sa kama. Ito yung unang beses na magtatabi kami sa kama. Lord ikaw na po ang bahala.





Pinatay niya ang ilaw at ang tanging liwanag nalang na naka bukas ay lamp shade sa gilid niya. Niyakap niya ako at nilagay ang mukha sa leeg ko.






"do you know how much i love you?" Bulong niya sa leeg ko.





"Hmm?"





"I pray to God that you are the only one that i want to live with for life" he hugged me tightly and let out a heavy sigh.






"I love you more than words" saad ko.




"someday I'll put a ring on that" kinuha niya ang kamay ko at tinuro ang palasingsingan ko.






"I will wait until that day comes" i kissed his forehead.




I want him to know that every day I will love him and choose him, every time I breathe he is the reason of that, every time I get tired he is my rest. He is my comfort.




"Cant wait to marry you elise" akala ko tulog na siya.






"Mabibigay mo din sakin ang apilido mo Mr. Baxter" i chuckled. Masyadong mabilis ang lahat pero masaya ako, masaya kami, he make me feel so loved.





"Kahit anong mangyare ikaw at ikaw pa din ang pipiliin ko, alam kong madaming pagsubok ang haharapin natin pero gusto ko kasama kitang harapin yon lahat" saad ko.






"i wont leave you, okay... in every battle im with you"  he assured me. I believe in every words he says.





"Lets sleep na" saad ko.




"Good night, love" he kissed my lips.




when I woke up he was no longer beside me so I immediately washed and brushed my teeth after that i went out of the room to look for him.





"Good morning love" lumapit siya sakin at hinalikan ang labi ko may suot siyang apron.




"I thought you left me" i pouted and he just chuckled.



We sat down at the table and ate breakfast, bacon and eggs were served.




"how was your sleep?" He asked.



"Its fine, nakatulog ako ng payapa kasi katabi kita".




we just spent time waiting until 3:00 pm to go to church. We took a shower already, im wearing maroon tank top and black high waisted pants, and I also wore white sneackers. Put on some liptint and eye liner.




Aren is wearing a plane white tshirt and jeans pants.  He also wore sneakers. Couple yarn.




"Love, favor please" inabot ko sakanya ang kwintas na binigay niya sakin para isuot sa leeg ko. Hinuhubad ko iyon pag maliligo.




Paalis na kami, kaya naman lumabas na kami ng condo pasakay na sana kami ng kotse ng niya ng biglang may tumawag sa pangalan ko.




"Elise!"
