The Truth Is Not True

Chapter 41 - Real

Colet's POV:

On winding roads of joy, we'll ride together. The unexpected plan brought flame to my heart to show a slight hint of what I'm feeling.

Through sun-kissed valleys, our laughter echoes, embracing our flight. As it whispered secrets and longing to be spoken. Sharing the moments without a care.

In whispered words and stolen glances, I found solace with this chance. It felt like the road stretches endlessly, serving as a long-drive memory.

Will never forget this precious moment of mine, that you and I, under the vast blue sky, captures how your smile shines.

I opened the car door for her and lent my hand for her support. I pulled her immediately as soon as she took it.

We walked together to the ticket booth and bought tickets for us. I'm so excited for this day. The place was filled with the sound of the cars bumping with each other, the wheels of a rollercoaster, and the excitement and joy felt by the others.

Jhoanna: “What came to your mind and brought me to this place?” She said softly while looking at me in surprise.

I noticed her cap was loose so I adjust and tighten it for her. I told her to wear the cap to avoid being stalked when we were in the car. Syempre matchy-matchy kami ni Babu ng cap.

“Luh, ang feeling. Hindi ako pumunta dito para dalhin ka. I just came here because I missed this place.” I jokingly said and I earned an arched brow from her which made me giggle and responded a quick peck on her lips that surprised her. Buti hindi nagalit.

“Hahaha joke lang, Babu. I just thought na sa sobrang aga mo magmature, feeling ko ay hindi ka pa nakakapunta sa mga ganitong lugar.” I confidently spoke.

Jhoanna: “Hahaha grabe ka naman sa akin. Yes, maaga akong nagtrabaho, but it doesn't mean I didn't experience these things during my childhood days.” She said, laughing on what I said that made me lose hope of making her feel the joy and excitement.

“Aww, yeah. Rich kid ka pala, for sure lagi kayong nandito ng family mo.” I said, sadness evident on my tone.

I really thought through this plan carefully so she could relax from work and experience something new. But it still went wrong.  Arghh! Sayang naman.

“I thought you'll get excited and amazed when I brought you here, hindi rin naman pala.” Full of disappointnent on my voice and for myself.

Without saying a word, I grabbed her hand and slowly pulled her towards where the car was parked.

Jhoanna: “Oh, dito yung entrance 'di ba? Bakit pabalik tayo sa kotse?” She asked, full of wonder, halting me from walking with her.

“Uwi nalang tayo sa condo mo. Baka hindi ka rin mag-enjoy eh. Wala na rin akong plan B.” Sadness still evident in my voice. I can't even look at her because of embarrassment.

Jhoanna: “Silly. Yes, I have been to this kind of place, but that was a long long time ago. I can't even recall when was the last time I went to a peryahan eh.” Kaya naman napatingin ako rito.

Jhoanna: “Pfft....Don't sulk na, you just brought me to the right place. Hindi bagay sa'yo ang nakabusangot.” She cheered me up while suppressing her laugh.

“Sus, pilit. Pampalubag loob lang 'yang sinasabi mo eh.” I said as I crossed my arms above my chest.

But I was shocked with her next move. She went near me and gave a smack on my lips that made me react late, then she softly pinched my left cheek.
