We decided to watch a romantic movie. Alam kong ayaw n'ya nito pero dahil wala naman akong ibang gusto at ayaw n'ya dun sa action movie, we were left with no choice but this. Ha... ha... ha... kahit ano 'wag lang 'yun.
In the middle of the movie I rested my head on his shoulder... something that I haven't done in a long while. I felt him gently kiss my temple. We've always been this affectionate towards each other but now I am seeing this in a different light. Ngayon may kilig. Shet! Oo, sobrang kinikilig ako ngayon! Ito na 'ata ang sign that Grant is more than a bestfriend to me. Mahal ko na s'ya!

After the movie, we went straight home. We didn't wanna be anywhere else but in our tree house. And that's why we're here... in our tree house... holding hands... while talking.
"Akala ko pinili mo si Cody," he said.
We are in the middle of our talk... the talk I've been meaning to have with him.
"Kaya pala you sent me that message."
"Yeah."
"Sana kinausap mo muna ako," ang sabi ko.
"I can't stand to see you with him. Hindi ko na kaya. Nasasaktan ako."
OH – EM – GEE!!! Alam ko masama ang dating pero kinikilig ako. He loves me that much that he can't stand to see me with someone else.
"So anong napala mo? Muntik na naman tayong magkaroon ng misunderstanding."
"Alam ko. It's just hard when you know that that person's the one for you but there's nothing more you can do about it kasi hindi naman kayo."
Teka! Sandali lang! Did he just say that? He thinks I'm the one for him? Oh my gosh! Can I just die now?!
"I want to set everything straight first before going into another thing," ang kalmado kong sagot. Ang hirap talagang kumalma kung bawat parte ng sistema mo ay lumulundag at sumasayaw sa tuwa.
His thumb rubbed a part of my hand. "So how did it go with whatever it is that you wanted straightened out?"
"Well, Cody wanted to give it another try but I felt it wasn't right anymore."
"Why?"
"My heart wasn't in it anymore."
"Why?"
I know exactly what he wants to hear. Pero parang gusto ko pa s'yang asarin muna. Ha... ha.. ha!
"Why do want to know?" I asked.
He looked me in the eyes and said, "Because I love you. I am in love with you. I have always been in love with you. And I want to know if you feel the same way about me. Kung ako ba ang rason kung bakit ayaw mo nang balikan si Cody."
