Only For Real Love

II

It's been a month now and the 'get to know each other phase' are on the process yet I still don't know anything about him.

This is our fifth date if I counted it right. I don't even feel an ounce of romantic feeling everytime we go on a date.

Mukhang napilitan lang talaga si Jark at hindi lang maka-hindi sa mga plano ng magulang namin.

"After this where are we going?" I asked hopefully. I still wanted to spend an hour with him. Kahit nga wala naman kaming imikan.

"Just finish your food first Agga." He commanded. I rolled my eyes and sulking while eating my dinner.

I never dated anyone still I qm sure that this is not the atmosphere of two people whose dating. 

"Masasap ba?" I asked. Pertaining to his food.

"What do you mean masasap?" For the first time of this night he gave me his full attention. As in, eyes on me, ears on me and he look so curious about what I just said.

Sa wakas. I said to myself.

"Duh, masasap. Delicious in English." I even raised my eyebrow to him.

I then heard him chuckled and fake a cough before wiping his lips and look at me intently. Oh... What a great view to seen.

"I'm not aware that masasap exist nor the tagalog of delicious." He scornfully utter that made my head boil. This man!

"What? Are you even a Filipino? Who wouldn't know masasap?" Kahit may mapang-asar siyang ngiti ay nagawa ko pa ding masabi iyon sa kalmadong paraan.

I hate people who laugh at me. They're taking away my confidence. Geez.

"You're the one who's not a Filipino." Diretso nitong sinabi. Well, that's true. I may have a blood of Filipino but I know nothing much about my Filipino blood.

"Whatever, just answer my question." Inis ko ng saad.

"Tsk... Masarap ang kinakain ko." He spoke in tagalog that raised my brows.

What masarap? He should day 'masasap ang kinakain ko' right?

"Wrong grammar ka." I absentmindedly said.

"I am not, there's no masasap in Filipino dictionary. The right translation of delicious is masarap Agga." He patiently explain while I am fighting with my ownself in my mind.

Is it? So I'm wrong all along? That's why he has that smug smile? That's why he's laughing at me. Gosh! But ever since I was a child masasap is the translation of delicious for me. No one corrected me. They even praised me for knowing tagalog word!

"Whatever!" I just snap and continue eating my dinner.

"Let's go home." Agad na aya ni Jark ng matapos kaming kumain at makapagbayad na siya.

Ako naman ay mabilis na nanghinayang dahil saglit lang muli ang aming pagkikita. We were just gonna eat and that's it. So boring! We never even got to hold each other hands! No goodbye kiss! No hugs!

Gosh! Nagmumukha naman akong atat at clingy nito.

"You go first, I decided to visit a bar." Wala sa sariling nasagot ko.

Well, it's a good idea to enjoy myself tutal at hindi ko naman lubusang na-enjoy ang date namin. Alcohol will surely make me feel so high.

"What did you say?" Kunot ang noo nitong tanong ng mabalingan ko siya.

"Gonna go to some bar." I answered while putting a lipstick on my lips.

Hindi na ako pumuntang comfort room dahil lipstick lang naman ang ilalagay ko. Nakalimutan ko rin ang mouthwash ko kaya hindi na necessary ang pumuntang banyo.
