The broken oath of forever (Broken Series #1)

Chapter 11

Tipsy

I knew that this is love, the moment I started doing things that I never thought I can do.

From the moment that I caught myself smiling from his texts or when I am talking to him over the phone, to those times where I am the one doing the first move, like holding his hand first or kissing his cheeks. Then there are moments where I started missing him the most and I am the one who's being clingy to him, until this very moment where I literally planned a surprise for his birthday.

Never in my wildest dream that I ever imagine planning to surprise someone. And here I am now, doing the unexpected because it's him.

And at first, I got scared when I started feeling this level of affection towards him.

I got scared because it's new to me, I thought what I felt to Alfa is a romantic love, but I think it's just attraction because what I am feeling right now is way too much from what I felt before.

But even if I got scared, I knew that I already prepared myself if ever this emotion finally came to my system. I already knew that he's deserving of the love that he gave to me. I knew that he's worthy of the trust and care, because he gave that to me first. He trusted me first and he waited patiently while taking care of me and loving me.

He waited until I reached the same page to him. He waited until I can love him while loving myself and knowing my worth.

And now, looking at the red heart balloons, the romantic dinner I cooked, but prepared by the hotel's staff, the roses and the gift I will give to him. Everything is already set and I am just waiting for him to arrive.

We've been in this relationship for almost two years now, I never thought it will last this long and we are now in our last year of law school. It's been a long time since I met him and I fucking have so many memories with him now. Just wow...

Including to those memories is our first-time travel abroad, with just the two of us which both our parents allowed. And it's for his birthday which I planned a surprise to him. I booked us a trip in Singapore for this event, before our class – the day after tomorrow.

I thought dad won't allow us, but then he realized that I am adult now and he trusted my boyfriend and me, that we can travel alone without them. Of course, he threatened my boyfriend first before he allowed us. Plus, Solomon already joined two of our out-of-the-country trips, they already considered this guy a part of our family now, even kuya likes him as well as my twin's boyfriend.

"What's taking him so long?" I asked while waiting near the table.

I asked him to buy something for me at the 7/11 store we saw while we are walking back to the hotel after our tour around here in Singapore. And he immediately told me to rest knowing that I am tired from a long walk wearing heels, so I gave him the other keycard.

I was about to complain again, but then I received a message from him.

From Love:

"Currently on my way back to the hotel, are you still up?"

I didn't reply to him, pretending that I am already sleeping. I continue waiting for him and I reheated the other food that is best served while hot. I even got a time to re-apply my lipstick and fix my hair.

The lights are dimmed to make it more romantic, instead of completely dark.

My heart beats fast when I heard the door is slowly opening. That's when I started singing him a birthday song.
