FAVIAN's POV

"I didn't know that you have a thing for Kevin's daughter, my son..." Dad said as he drink his wine.

I'm still here at the hospital with my parents. Tomorrow, I'll be discharged since the doctor said that my wound has already healed.

"Yes dad... and I'm serious about her"

"Ian anak, I know that Kalea has been crushing on you for so long and I really like her for you! She's like the daughter I've never had. I hope you won't do anything that will make her cry kung hindi ay ako ang makakalaban mo." Mom said to me, no she's giving me a warning.

Mahirap ba talaga paniwalaan na gustong-gusto ko na si Kalea? Sabagay, napakagago ko nga naman kasi noon sa kanya. Kaya mahirap para sa mga tao sa paligid namin na paniwalaan ako. Tsk! I don't need their opinions anyway. I know what I really feel. And it's not pretention.

"Ngayon ko lang nakitang nagkaganyan ka dahil sa babae, son. I know she's really something important to you... I'm happy son, akala ko talaga ay bakla ang nagiisa kong anak. Malapit kana mawala sa kalendaryo pero wala ka pa ding pinapakilala sa amin ng Mommy mo ni isa"

I'M JUST 25! I'M NOT THAT OLD!

How do I explain this... *sigh*

I suddenly remember my college years... especially in my 3rd year.

"Ian,  naks pre! T'wing valentines day punong puno yang lockers mo ng mga love letter at gifts! Pahingi naman kahit isang chocolate lang tol!" one of my colleague — Philip said.

It is Valentine's Day today, and I fcking hate it... My books are overshadowed by the freaking letters and gifts again from my admirers.

"You can have them all”  sabi ko dito at pabagsak na sinara ang locker ko. Nawalan na ako  ng gana magreview.

Pumunta ako sa cr ng gym at naligo. Sobrang init ngayon at mamaya magpapawis na naman ako dahil sa practice namin sa basketball...
