Glimpses

Exciting

Forewords! Thanks to Daddy Bae for this photo. I was supposed to use the one wherein AxM were inside a tricycle tapos nag-ala payb years old si Tisoy at pinakita ang scratch sa middle finger n'ya. Mas dramatic 'yung ke Daddy Bae. 😄😄😄

Without further ado, here's the story

February 14. Valentine's Day. Sabi nila, every couple celebrates this day. Sabi nila, every people that are in love count this as a special occasion. At sabi nila, spread the love on this day.

We woke up at 6 in the morning. Actually, I woke up at 5. I just couldn't contain this giddiness inside me. I have an explanation for this. A science-proof elucidation actually. I learned the right word when I was deciding what clothes to wear. This feeling of alertness. Of transparent happiness. Of tingling sensation from my toes up to my neck. The sweating of my palm and the harbor breathing of my lungs. The rising and falling of my chest each time I imagine. And the wide smile on my lips. It could only mean one thing. High-blood ako.

Joke lang Meng! Of course I am excited. Why shouldn't I be? I have waited for this for a very long time diba? I have even asked for a sign if this plan should happen. I asked around if this idea is plausible. And it is. Look at us now! Roadtripping. A sign of our adventure since the day we met. Since everything fell into place. Since my heart, for a very long while now, has started to beat erratically again. Akala ko noon, sa mga new projects lang ako maeexcite. I thought sa mga interviews lang ako kakabahan. I thought I would only feel uncertain towards my future as an actor. My life plans have not ended pa pala. There is still a missing slot. And you know what? Kasya ang pangalan mo dun.

I woke up at 6. Actually, I was up at 4 but I chose to bury myself in the warmth of my bed, enjoying the quiet moments. I heard Dean tinkering something on the kitchen while he was playing some music on his phone by 5. I smiled to myself. Hindi lang pala ako ang excited.

While showering, I was thinking. Where would you take us? Have you been taking notes of what I love whenever we talk? Have you remembered my grand plan in case we were given a very long weekend break? Have you been making mental notes on that smarty brain of yours what I would do in case I am on a roadtrip?

Will you let me drive? Will you hold my hand while you drive? What song are we going to listen? Are we going to fight on what music to play? Are you going to stop me from dozing off before we reach our destination? Will we be quiet? Will we be shouting? Will we play while the traffic light is red? Will you laugh out loud if I crack a joke? Will you roll the windows down if I fart inside? Will we order drive-thru? Is it gonna be McDo again? Isn't obvious that I am really, really, excited about this?

I told you this before right? Na gusto kong mag-roadtrip. 'Yung biglaang hila sa bahay sabay alis. Naka-pambahay lang. Walang make-up. Toothbrush lang at mabilisang suklay. Full tank ang car tapos naka-ready na ang Roadtrip Playlist sa music player. May neck pillows at blanket sa backseat. I told you before this right? How long has it been? Why did you remember them? Parang ang tagal na nung nasabi ko sa'yo 'to? Was my intuition correct Shoks? That you always remember whatever I say to you? That you promised yourself that we will do whatever I love? Because Shoks? That is so sweet. So simple and yet...sh*t naman, you're making me cry by simply talking to myself. Hay naku!

I am excited about this. I have waited for this. Just the two of us. We could stop anywhere and just enjoy the view. Huwag sa EDSA huh? We both love that busy highway but not today. We could be anywhere. And you know what Shoks? I have already given you the steering wheel for awhile now. And let me tell you one more, it's not the car I am pertaining to.

♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡

Who's excited for the Roadtrip! I know I am. Sobrang daming feels! I hope that they will enjoy the PRIVACY on this escapade. Sure I want to know SOMETHING but I am contented kung ano man ang trip nila. As long as they are both happy.

Please enjoy!
