"Sure ka na ba diyan Mikhs? Mamaya poser yang kausap mo." Sabi sakin ni Colet habang naglalakad kami papunta sa apartment namin. Grabe talaga trust issues nito sa tao.
I have an online girlfriend and we're planning to meet up. We've been talking for like three months na pero never once ko pa nakita yung itsura niya. She's sweet and napaka-caring. She never missed to text me just to update me.
She's from Cebu and I'm currently residing here sa Manila. We're both students. She's older two years older than me but I'm fine with it.
"Ano ka ba? Hindi magagawa sakin ni Aiah lokohin ako. I trust my babi." I argued. I saw Colet make a face and rolled her eyes.
"Bahala ka. Basta ako sinabihan kita. Your only communication with her is via text messages and her facebook profile picture ay aso pa. Wala siyang IG and tiktok. Duda talaga ako diyan sa online girlfriend mo."
Hindi ko na lang pinansin yung sinabi ni Colet. I admit, there are times na curious ako kung ano talaga itsura ni Aiah, but, it doesn't really matter to me kasi she always makes me smile and super comfortable kong kausap siya. We do phone calls din naman and her voice is angelic.
Nakauwi na ako sa apartment ko malapit dito sa school. Magkatabi lang kami ng room ni Colet that's the reason kung bakit kami naging magkaibigan.
My phone chime kaya tinignan ko kung sino nagmessage. Napangiti naman ako bigla ng makita kong si Aiah yung nagtext.
Aiah: Hi Babi! Nakauwi ka ba ng maayos?
Me: Yes Babi. Kakauwi ko lang. How about you?
Aiah: Kanina pa. Wala yung prof namin eh.
Me: I see. Kain ka na dinner. I can't wait to see you on Saturday.
Aiah: Me too! I'm so excited.
Nag-usap pa kami hanggang sa makatulog kami. I'm happy and excited but nervous at the same time about our meeting sa Saturday.
I kept thinking, what if hindi niya ako magustuhan?
What if she doesn't find me attractive?
What if magkaron siya ng second thought?
I brushed all my worry and decided to just sleep it off.

It's Saturday and I'm waiting dito sa apartment ko. We've decided na dito muna kami magkita sa apartment ko so she can settle her things before kami magdate. She will stay for 3 days sa apartment ko dahil sa long weekend.
I'm wearing a black tube top with a light blue vest. I button it all up and partnered with black slim fit trousers and white shoes.
I constantly tapping my foot habang nakaupo ako sa sofa. Nakatingin ako sa orasan kasi it's almost 30 minutes past simula nung last update sakin ni Aiah.
Hapon na naman na so I'm planning to take her for a walk and eat early dinner. Kakahintay ko, halos lumabas yung puso ko sa gulat ng mga nagdoorbell sa pintuan ko.
