Ford held Joy in his arms as they both tried to catch their breath after an intense session that showed how much they missed each other. Because one thing about them is that their actions always spoke louder than their words.
"Bakit nga pala napaaga yung uwi mo?" Joy asked him. She laid on his chest as he rubbed small circles on her back.
"Sabi ko nga sayo na miss kita," he chuckled when she hit his chest lightly.
"Ano pala yung nangyari a few days ago," she sighed and looked up at him. He gave her a small nod and an encouraging smile.
"Si Voldemort kinukulit kasi ko. Hindi talaga sya titigil kung hindi ko sya kausapin. I also thought that he would explain that day but he didn't. Sinasabi nya lang na bigyan ko daw sya ng second chance like siraulo ba sya? I kept telling him no eh ayaw talaga makinig ng kupal kaya tumayo nalang ako para umalis. Tapos he hugged me, which I immediately pushed him away. Kadiri baka napunta pa germs nya saakin ew. Anyways yon sinabi ko na ikaw na yung gusto ko kaya wala talagang chance saakin." she explained. She felt him stiffen while watching her, confusion and shock written all over his face. She chuckled and cupped his cheeks before giving him a peck.
"You-you like me too?" he asked her in disbelief. She shook her head and smiled.
"Mahal. I love you," she told him. He pulled her into a deep kiss and only pulled away when they ran out of breath.
"I love you so much. More than words can express and I promise to make sure you know that everyday." he whispered and pulled her into a tight hug.
"Thank you. Sa lahat ng ginawa mo para saakin, thank you. So I guess we're finally putting a real label on this relationship hm?" she asked him.
"Pwede ba na ligawan muna kita? I want to court you the traditional way, the right way. Alam ko matagal na tayo sa fubu set up but I still wanna court you." Joy smiled and nodded, giving him another kiss just because she couldn't help herself.
