Gab is my close friend, and he frequently comes to my condo. We spend time together every day. I'm perplexed because our interactions seem to surpass mere friendship; it feels like there's something deeper, and he often gives mixed signals. I'm unsure if he's intentionally sending mixed signals or if I'm misinterpreting the situation.
"Baby, tabi tayo matulog" Gab said as he approached me to give me a back hug.
Yes, he calls me "baby." I don't know if it's just teasing or if it's genuine.
"Lagi naman tayo magka tabi" I said while he was hugging me.
Here we go again with his actions. Is this how friends behave, or can we just be in a romantic relationship instead?

Ain't no one tryna pressure you
So you can keep in all your cool
This somethin' light
This somethin' nice
If you don't mind
"Tara manood tayo" He said as he carried me to the bedroom.
"Gab, ibaba mo nga ako"
"Aray, 'wag ka makulit" He lowered me to the bedroom door and then lay down on the bed.
"tara dito ka sa tabi ko" Gab said as I approached, he suddenly hugged me, and I found myself lying on his chest.
🎶🎶🎶
Got plenty lovin' in the mood
It's something I don't usually do
Sugar 'n spice
Everything nice
Let's turn out the lights
While we were watching, I couldn't help but wonder why we are like this. Why not just be together? Is this as far as we go?
An hour passed, and the movie ended. Gab stood up to turn off the TV. After switching it off, he lay back down and hugged me again.
"Good night, Tian. Sleep well and have sweet dreams. I love you." Gab said as he kissed my forehead.
🎶🎶🎶
You been acting like you're my baby
'Cause you know it's hard to replace me
You been actin' like
I been on your mind
Like you're mine tonight
The next day, I woke up to find Gab not beside me. I went to the kitchen and saw him cooking.
"Gising ka na pala, good morning my baby" He said as he approached me to hug me and kiss my forehead.
"Good morning, si kiss naman 'to"
"Hindi ka pa ba nasanay sakin"
"Kain na tayo" Gab said as he pulled the chair for me to sit down.
"Thank you, Gab"
"Hindi man lang baby eh, baby kasi 'wag Gab, gusto ko baby" He told me while pouting like a child.
"AHAHHAHAHAH cute mo naman mag dabog, sorry na baby" I said with a smile.
"Kamusta tulog mo?" Gab said while putting food on my plate.
"Ok lang, katabi kita eh" I said, and he smiled.
"Ikaw? kamusta tulog mo?"
"Sobrang ok, ikaw ba naman katabi pati kayakap mo yung baby mo, sinong hindi magiging ok dun" He said, and I was surprised.
"Alam mo apaka emedora mo" I said and started eating.
" Walang eme 'yun baby" He said with a smile.
"Eme ka" I said as I rolled my eyes at him.
