Ramdam ko ang malamig na hangin kahit pa nakajacket ako. Nililipad na naman ang hair ng lola niyo. I looked around but still no sign of him. Hay, Icen. Where are you now?
"San ka pupunta?"
Muntikan na kong madapa sa pagkagulat. Bigla na naman kasing sumulpot ang Icen na toh eh. Parang sa puso ko, bigla na lang siyang pumasok and before I knew it, MAHAL KO NA PALA SIYA.
The moonlight is enough for me to see every detail in his face. His hair is swaying together with the cool breeze. woah, what a guy. He looks like a delicate work of art.
"You're staring at me again.", then my fantasy was interrupted.
"S-sorry.", I was about to leave when he pulled my hand. I looked deeply in his eyes. And again, things got crazier in my heart. Every beat is as loud as the ocean's waves against the rocks.
"San ka pupunta?", he asked without taking his hands away from mine.
"N-Nagpapahangin lang."
"Ahh. Akala ko sa pajama party.", he's mocking me. And that's my cue. I need to make the most of everything because in any minute I may lose him again.
"Joke yun? Ahm, kuya, my hand please. If you don't mind.", sabi ko sabay hila sa kamay kong hinahawakan niya.
After a few minutes of silence, natuliling ako sa sobrang katahimikan. He's staring at the vast ocean thinking of something I do not know.
"Bakit di ka pa bumalik don?", tanung niya saken.
"Diba nga nagpapahangin ako?"
"Wala si Ezekiel dito."
Panung nasali si Ezekiel dito?
"Alam ko. Eh anu naman kung wala siya dito?"
"I'm not a fool. Alam kong gusto mo siya. Bakit ka pa umalis don? Don't tell me you followed me here to be with someone like me."
Panu kung oo? Nadale mo.
"Anu bang gusto mong palabasin?"
"All I want to say is that you're supposed to be with him right now. Iyon naman talaga dahilan kung bakit ka nandito diba?"
"Look Icen, if you don't want to be with me right now, sabihin mo. Hindi yung kung anu anu iniisip mo.", sabi ko naman sa kanya tsaka ako nagpasyang umalis.
Hindi naman niya kailangang sabihin pa yon. Halatang ayaw na ayaw niya na kasama ako. bakit ba ang sakit niyang magsalita? The jerk. Sarap murahin eh. I'm here because of you Icen!Dahil sayo, sayo at sayo lamang! :'(
