Sandro's POV
Im on my way to airport. Today's my flight going to manila.

3 days to go and birthday na namin ni calli. We're turning 30 this year and i just planned a simple gathering for our birthday since she don't have any plans.

"So calli don't have any idea for the party right? " Jaime
"Yeah. She don't even know na isasama ko sya going here"
"Sands make sure she bring a decent dress for the party ha?"
"Yeah i will. That's been my plan"
"Kayo na ba sands?" Matt
"Nope. We're friends" because that's true.
"What?! Grabe sands ha. You guys are too sweet kung friends lang may pa i love you pa kayo" jamie
"Gosh! You & matt pareho kayong marites"

Im now inside the plane. I've been thinking yung sinabi ni jamie. It's true calli & i are really close. We says i love you din, we take care of each other, i stay in her house whenever im in manila but until now friends padin kami.

I've been wanting to tell her that i really do love her and i want to court her but im too scared. Baka if i tell her she distance herself or something might change and i can't afford to loose her.

Today's saturday so for sure she's in her house lang.
i just asked the driver to go drive thru first then straight to calli's house.

"Oh sandro anjan ka pala. Pasok ka"
"Good morning nay. She's still sleeping po?"
"Oo. Akyatin mo nalang. Pagka hinanap kami paki sabi namalengke lang kami ha"
"Sige nay thank you"

Im here in her room. My calli, she's still sleeping like a baby. I didn't bother to wake her up since it's too early pa. I just went beside her to sleep.
(Yes we sleep together. As in sleep lang)

I woke up when i felt that she's moving. I was hugging her kasi.

"Good Morning Ysabelle" and i think nagulat sya she turn her back to face me kasi
"What?! You're here?" She's asking in disbelief
"Yes. I missed youu!" I kissed her in her forehead
"It is really a Good Morning! I missed you alexander!!!" She said in high tone she is really happy she just hugged me and rest her head on my chest. That's her favorite spot talaga.

"I missed this!" She said while i took a picture
"Me too calli. I missed you!"
"Wait bat ka pala andito? You're not busy?"
"Nope. Do you have work on monday?"
"What date is that?"
"Our birthday"
"It's my choice if im going or not. You have work?"
"Yeah."
"That's sad. I'll work nalang din"
"You want to come with me in ilocos? We can go out after my work?"
"I'll think about it"
"Ugh. No na. Just come with me pleaseee?"
"Okay. But i'll fly back to manila the next day"
"Ok. All set. Come i bought us breakfast kanina"
"Owwwww! Really? Let's go!"

We went down to eat breakfast and of course non stop talking for everything that happened. Even we always talk at night kasi it hits different pag you two talk in person diba.

She's drinking coffee while smiling so i took a picture and post it in ig.

*picture*
Caption *A Good Morning Indeed* then i put back my phone in my pocket.

"So sands you have any plan for today?"
"Yeah. Just spend it with you"
"Sweet but too bad i have plans"
"What?! Mik said you don't naman"
"She only know my scheds sa office. Stay here i'll shower first"

Calli's POV

I don't really have any plans today. Inaasar ko lang si sandro but naisip ko na dumalaw sa cemetery it's been 5 years since the last time i went there. I don't have the urge kasi.

I just wore pants, polo shirt and sneakers. And bumaba na din ako.

"Let's go sands!"  I can see the confusions on his eyes
"Where?"
"No questions!"

Nang maka sakay naman na kami si sandro panay tanong.

"Where are we going ba?"
"Papakilala kita sa first love ko" I can see na nakasimangot nanaman sya
"Ah. For what? You have first love pala eh"
"Duh! Anong tingin mo sakin hindi marunong mag mahal hahaha"
"Calli i don't need to meet your first love na."
"Eh gusto ko nga makilala mo. So KJ sands"
"Do you still love your first love kaya you don't want anyone to court you?"
"Yes and No. that's not the reason why i don't allow anyone before na ligawan ako"
"Before? So what if someone court you now? Papayag ka?"
"It depends. I need to make paligaw na baka mag 32 ako asawahin mo ko haha" I can see na nagulat sya sa sinabi ko haha.
"Why you don't like me ba to be your husband? You're so lucky na if im your husband noh"
"Oh gosh. Baka your fans isabit ako sa windmill if that happens" awkward na sagot ko but the truth is yes sands i want to be with you forever but baka hanggang friends lang talaga tayo.

I just kept quiet. We're almost there dumaan lang ako sandali ng flowers and candle. Si sandro? Ayun tulog sa sasakyan.
Nang makarating kami sa musileo nila mommy ginising ko na din sya.

"Hey sands! Wake up nandito na tayo"
"Sandro wake up na nandito na tayooooo!" Sigaw ko sa kanya.
"What? Im still sleeping pa eh. Bahala ka sa first love mo"
"Ah ganon? Ok don't talk to me ha!"
"Hey im just kidding. Where are we ba?" Inikot naman nya tingin nya at nakita na nya yung musileo.
Bumaba na din ako at sumunod sya.

Binubuksan ko palang yung musileo pero parang hindi ko magawa. Hindi tumitigil yung nginig ng kamay ko bumabalik lahat lahat.
Hinawakan naman ni sandro yung kamay ko at sya na nag bukas.

Nanghihina ako parang nawawalan ako ng lakas. Ang sakit padin pala. Bumabalik nanaman yung mga nangyari. Inalalayan ako ni sandro papasok at palapit sa puntod nila mommy at daddy.

Pagka lapit ko napaluhod nalang ako at di ko na napigilan yung luha ko. Si sandro naman nasa likod ko at hini himas likod ko para tumahan.

"Mom Dad miss ko na kayo. Sorry kung ngayon lang ako dumalaw ang sakit sakit padin kasi." Sabi ko habang patuloy na iyak.
"Shhh! Calli your parents will not be happy if makita ka nila na umiiyak"
"Hi tito & tita. Im Ferdinand Alexander Araneta Marcos po. It sudden me to not know and met you both when you're still here. But im glad i had the chance to met you two right now. Don't worry about calli po i promise that i will take care of her forever. I will not let her feel and be left alone again. Can you say hi to my lolo in heaven"

"Mommy Daddy. May kasama na ko ngayon. someones taking care of me na. I miss both of you. Ang daya nyo kasi iniwan nyo ko agad eh. Please always look for us ha. Visit me in my dreams naman po."

We just stay there for a bit. Sandro calmed me down im just grateful that he's with me right now.
