"Ano ba Ranger! Ayusin mo naman! Game! 1,2,3! Ano ba!"
Nagaaway kami ngayon ni Ranger. Kasi sabi ko ayusin yung kuha. Ng tiningnan ko kasi kanina puro mukha niya.
Nandito kami sa last place sa bucketlist ko.
"Leche!" Sabi ko sabay lakad palayo sakanya.
Naglakad lang ako nang naglakad hanggang nandito na ako sa tapat nang Eiffel Tower.
Pero hindi pa sa baba."Hayy. Dream come true." Sabi ko habang nakatingala sa Eiffel Tower.
Nang biglang may humawak sa kamay ko at may nakita akong may nag flash.
"Hmm. Eto oh. " sabi niya pakita sakin ng picture kong nakatalikod habang hawak ko yung kamay niya patalikod.
"Hmm. Ganda ah. Galing ah."
"Syempre. Nag aral akong photography diba?" Sabi niya habang nakatingala sa Eiffel Tower.
"Oo nga pala ... Naalala ko pa ngang gusto mong maging photographer ko. At tanging mukha ko lang ang nanjan. Pero bakit ngayon puro selfie mo nalang.. Anyare?" Sabi ko ng natatawa.
"Hindi kaya tingnan mo." Pinakita niya sakin yung mga pictures. Puro stolen ko. Meron pangang tulog ako sa hotel eh..
"Jusme. Ang pangit ko dito. Delete mo!"
"Hmm.. Parang di naman." Sabi niya at tinitingnan ng mabuti yung mukha ko.
Tinitigan ko siya.. Ang saya niya pero at the same time. May iba sakanya parang may something eh.. Parang may tinatago?
"Lusaw na ba ako?" Tanong niya bigla.
"Ahh-- asa!" Sabi ko.
Flashback
(3rd Person's POV)
(6 years old Ranger and 5 years old Steph)
"Hi."
"Hello."
"You're beautiful."
"Thanks sweetie!"
"Sweetie??"
"Why is there something wrong about that??"
"Umm- wala."
"Hmm?? O-kay.."
Biglang hinawakan ni Ranger ang kamay ni Steph.
Ngumiti naman si Steph.
"Kinikilig ako." Pagamin ni Steph.
"You're blushing."
"My name is Steph."
"Ranger is the name."
"Nice to meet you My Super Ranger."
"Nice to see you smile My Princess Steph."
End of Flashback
Naglakad ako sa baba ng Eiffel Tower. Teka? Nasaan si Ranger. Tumingin ako sa lahat ng sides wala naman.
Jusme, pa feeling important naman toh. Akala mo gwapo. Pogi kaya siya!
Whatt? Watt? Anu ba yan!!!
Biglang may nag abot sakin ng rose.
"Thanks."
Nasaan ba yung mokong na yun?
"Ahh. Thank you ulit." May nagbigay na naman..
Kapag tinatanong ko naman sabi bigay daw ni Super R.
Huh?? Super R? May bago na bang super hero??
Tapos yung isa bouquet of roses. Nag thank you nalang ako.
Tapos pagtingin ko sa paa ko may isang maliit na chest. Kinuha ko yun pero nakasara kailangan siya ng susi eh.
"May susi ako." Napatingin ako sa nagsalita. "Sus, ikaw lang pala." Sabi ko. "Namiss mo ako noh?" Tanong niya.
"Hindi noh. Pero may susi ka?"
"Hindi mo naman ako namiss kaya hindi ko ibibigay yung susi." Sabi niya at nilabas yung susi at kinuha sakin yung chest.
"Damot." Sabi ko sabay irap. Pagtingin ko naman sa kalayuan. Ang raming taong nakapaligid sa Eiffel Tower at nakatingin samin.
Bakit kaya?
"Omg! The boy is so sweet."
"Omg! Is he going to propose?"
"No. It's like they're not bf or gf."
"I think so."
Napatingin ako kay Ranger. Nakaluhod siya at hawak niya yung chest.
"Heyy. What are you doing? Tingnan mo center of attention tayo dito oh?"
"Hold this." Pinahawak niya sakin yung susi.
"I never met such as an emotionless female. Every girl says they don't have feelings. It's scary and so attractive at the same time. I think I need you because you don't need me. Because I like being in your presence, I like holding you and seeing your smile. Judging people with you and laughing with you anything I do with you is just better. "
Ano ba iyan?!! Ranger watt the heck you're doing!??
"You are the sun in my day, the wind in my sky, the waves in my ocean, and the beat in my heart. All my dreams came true the day I met you. I Love You! You are the sunshine in my life! Thanks for brightening my world with the warmth of your love. You are the fire that burns the passion within my soul. I love you within my heart. I want to be your arms, I want to feel your touch, I want your lips on mine. I need you very much"
Tumulo yung luha ka. I never imagined Ranger could be this romantic. I know Ranger is sweet but this romantic, not really. Because Ranger is goofy.
"I want a boy who would hold my hand in line at the mall and make all the girls jealous. I want someone who would sing to me at random moments. Someone who is more goofy than than romantic. A boy who would throw stuffed animals at me when I'm acting dumb. Someone who would bet me kisses that he could beat me at all the old play station games and then let me win. A guy who would make fun of me just to hear my laugh. He'd play with my hair all time and surprise me. Someone who I could share lollipops with and lay on a blanket with to count the stars. We'd by tons of disposable cameras to take the silliest pictures of each other and squirt water guns at each other in the house. But mostly; someone who would be my best friend and would never break my heart. He would just always make me smile. And I'll hoping that boy will be you, Ranger."
Para kaming baliw ni Ranger. Tumatawa kami ngayon habang may tumutulong luha sa mga mata namin.
"It's dangerous to go alone."
Binuksan ko yung chest gamit yung susi na hawak ko.
"Take me?"
Dugtong ni Ranger. Omg! The ring! Hindi man ito engagement ring. Pero omg!
"Here's my love, take it. Here's my soul, use it. Here's my heart, don't break it. Here's my hand, hold it. And Ranger, yes, I'll take you."
"I love you My Princess Steph."
"I love you too My Super Ranger."
