"Cling"
"I'll wait for you"
Nilapat niya ang kaniyang labi sa aking pisngi at hinigpitan ang pagkakayakap sa akin.
A long silence filled the room, his game is playing with the sound of its background. His gentle voice break those deafening silence.
"But i'm having a second thought.."
Nilingon ko siya. Our eyes meet, I lowered my eyes and then lay my hand to his. "Why are you having a second thought?"
Bago pa man siya makasagot sa aking tanong ay dinugtungan ko na kaagad ito. "If that's what makes you grow, bukod pa roon ay makapagpapasaya saiyo. I'm always, always here, no need to worry"
I thought my soul wasn't present in my body when he suddenly kissed my neck and feel his breathing after that.
"How lucky" he chuckle
'Who's lucky?' kausap ang isipan ko habang nagtataka't namumula sa kanya.
"How lucky the Man will be kung mapapa-sakanya ka" he added. "But you are--"
Nakita ko siyang nakangisi, then he guided my hands to play his game. I secretly smile while cherishing the bond that we have bago siya muling mawala sa aking tabi.
Dear Diary, we make
more quality time before
he left the town♡
Lumipas ang mga araw, sinulit namin ang pagkakasama ni Arzhel. He often visited in our home, paminsan ay nagpupunta kami pareho sa parke or other places that we can make memories together."Lizzie!" i hear him shouting at lumapit sa kinatatayuan ko. His eyes stay still at mine, a smell of something that i never felt at him before.
'Whats with his aura?'
I then figured out nang nilipat niya ang tingin sa kausap kong lalaki. I shockingly stare to Arzhel without him or anyone noticing.
"Who are you talking to?"
I bite my lips para tigilan ang pagngiti ng aking labi while him staring to the man with a fierce. 'Such a cutie'
Nabaling ang tingin ko sa lalaki noong bigla itong nagpaalam. Ramdam ko ang titig sa akin ni Arzhel, i slowly blink then look at him. "Nagtatanong siya kung ano yung account ko sa insta..."
"And then?"
Tulala akong di malaman kung ano ang tinutukoy niya, he lean close to me while doing a cross hand. "Just that?"
I smile at him saying " I said, i already have a boyfriend"
As I feel his contentment, i hold his hand and lean to his arms. "I should've added na isa siyang Golden Retriever"
His finger tap my nose and pinch my cheek "Hindi pa nga ako nakakaalis dito and my precious one is finding her concubine"
"Hindi ako lalaki!"
He giggle while having fun of joking me "Love you too"
Napatingin ako sa hawak niyang supot "Ice-cream?" ngumiti naman ito at dinala ako sa may bench. I grab the one and eat "Strawberry flavored icecreams are the best!" pasigaw ko habang ninanamnam ang bawat subo nito.
"You're so biased, akala ko ba ako~"
I put down the cup that i'm holding then sigh and smirk at him while pinching his cheeks with my two hands. "Ofcourse ikaw ang the best of the best"
"Really?" He said after he kissed my lips.
Mabuti na lamang ay di masydong matao sa park, the way he acts gives me an embarrassment and butterflies at the same time.
With my sixth sense, i can feel what he is giving with his face after he did that. "Pahingi.."
"What? Pagkatapos nung mga trip mo eto ka nanaman, this is my icecream tho" pakeme kong sagot sa kanya
"The puppy must be craving for it kaya binigay ko" my eyes went down to the little brown creature na kinakain ang sorbetes.
"Think about i'm that puppy too, also aalis narin ako sa mga susunod na linggo" palusot pa nito " If hindi ka iimik then i'll eat that one on the spoon"
Sasagot na sana ako kaso mas mabilis pa ata sa speed of light na kinain ni Arzhel ang icecream na nasa plastic na kutsara. "Huh!?"
"An individual should limit sa pagkain ng mga sweets"
I frown at him "Enough with your palaver talks Doc, ni hindi pa nga ako nakakalahati sa icecream ko!"
Napaalis ako sa kina-uupuan namin at saka naghanap ng restroom. I'm just joking sa walkout ko, sadyang nalalakasan lang ako sa mga trip ni Archie ngayon. Then i'll have him the taste of his dish.
Nang makabalik ako malapit sa bench, i see Arzhel talking with a woman. Nang lumapit ako ay tsaka din umalis ang babae. "Who's that?" i said with a cold voice
"She asked what's my fb account.."
"Uhmm.." iniwas kong umupo sa tabi niya, nilagay niya ang kanyang braso sa sandalan ng bench at ginilid ang ulo. "Were you jealous?"
"Sino may sabi~"
Hinawakan niya ang kamay ko at hinamis ang sing-sing sa daliri ko. "I show her mine" tinapat niya sa aking singsing ang regalo kong bracelet.
"How can she know? What if isipin niya na galing sa boy best friend or someone yan rather than your Lovely Girlfriend?"
He chuckle "Kaya ko sinabi na this bracelet will be a ring soon, the ring that will be tied to my woman's ring behind my back"
Hindi ko mapigilan ang pamumula ng aking mukha, napansin rin ito ni Archie na ginamit sa pangangasar nito. Niyakap at hinagkan ako nitl sa noo na mas lalong nagpalala sa kilig ko.
He giggle at my actions
"My Love, don't be too shy. Dapat na sinasanay mo na ang sarili mo. How can i do my cuddles kapag ganito ka kaagad?"
Muli ko siyang iniwanan, patakbo akong humiwalay sa kanya. Sumunod din siya at di mapigil ang pagtawa, as i can't also handle my feelings.
'Gosh,what did he ate today!?'
Dear Dairy, i wish to have
more bond with him
before he left...
