Chasing Love (Love, Love, Love Book 2)

Part 4: Love makes little things mean everything

Zandra

DAY ONE..

Nothing changed.

We’re still strangers to each other.

I know we know each other for a long time but we don’t really know each other very well.

I know I bragged about knowing everything about Jetrix. I don’t. all I know is the basic.

Well, if you’ll make me describe Jetrix sa pagkakakilala ko sa kanya, Jetrix is a little silent at times, sya yung tipong malalim mag isip. He can be impulsive, and rebellious but he’s a totoal gentleman. He loves art. He loves art more than anything. Or maybe hnda naman ako sabi ng nanay ko e loves anncel more than art.

Hanggang ngayon iniisip ko kung bakit kailangan nya magmahal ng iba bukod sakin? Maganda naman ako sabi ng nanay ko. It’s just 6 am in the morning. I hopped out of bed and darted out to the kitchen. Wala kaming kasamang katulong. Kami lang talagang dalawa and it gave me a feeling na ako ang misis nya. Kinikilig ako. Enebeee!

I made pancakes. Bihira ako magluto but that doesn’t mean that I’m a kitchen noob. To be honest, I’m a good cook. I like cooking and I like Jetrix. HAHA I went upstairs to check on Jetrix. He left the door unlocked. I opened it and I saw him there sleeping soundly. He looks too calm and I don’t want to wake him up, so I just brought his breakfast there and placed it in his bedside table. I wrote a note.

“Good morning! Don’t forget to eat alright? :*” and a kissy face! J

I came closer to his bed and sat next to him for a while. I stopped and stared. I traced his face with my fingers and I can’t help but smile.

I gained consciousness and I realized that I shoul be going. Baka magising ‘to at magulat sa kagandahan ko J 

I ate my own breakfast. I made a grocery list. Wala halos laman ang bahay na ito eh. I was so caught up with my list. Napakahaba ng listahan ko ang I know I can’t carry everything. I need jetrix’s help. But I doubt if he’s gonna help me. I left the list on the kitchen counter.

I took a nice warm shower and I fixed myself up.

Then I heard him open and close his room’s door. I saw him carrying his tray. Naubos nya yung pancakes. Horaaaaay! He went to the kitchen to clean up.

I looked at him smiled but he didn’t bother to smile. It took my hopes down low. I went back to my room.

My room's door suddenly opened and he’s looking on the floor and said.

“Hey tubby. We’re going grocery shopping. Hurry down to the garage.” He said.

Oh, he saw my list!! Yeeee. so sweet!

W-WAIT. He called me tubby?

T.T I’m not fat!! Huhuhu

 I made sure that I looked decent and went to the garage. He was already inside the car.  I sat on the passenger seat and I smiled at him.

He smiled back..HE SMILED BACK. Oh god, I’m gonna die.

Love make little things mean everything..

Yung simpleng ngiti nya, nakakapagpatalon ng puso ko. Grabe na ah. This is what you call killer smile because he made my heart skip a beat.

Jetrix

Hindi ako makatulog.

Paikot-ikot ako sa kama at ang isip ko ay lumilipad.

I lie awake, staring at the ceiling. I cannot bear to be a prisoner in this palace like dungeon.

But I will only be a prisoner if I choose to be one.

Kaya nasasaakin din ang choice.

To choose to be happy or to stay like this.

But what if you don’t really know what happy means? Or you simply don’t know what will make you happy anymore. Life is such a puzzle. It’s more complicated than making a classical painting. Da Vinci would have kill himself if he’s in my place.

I should start anew.

I should not live in the past because it will just hold me back.

Anncel made a choice and it’s so darn clear to me, and now..It’s my turn to make one.

And I choose to be happy.

I’ll learn to be happy in this new set-up. And besides, I’ve known zandra my whole life.

She’s a girlfriend material.

The only problem is my heart. Masyadong mahirap kumbinsihin na iba nalang ang mahalin nya. But I know, one day, my feelings will fade and a new one will come.

I heart the door knob creak and I closed my eyes immediately.

Zandra came inside the room and I could smell freshly cooked pancakes.

She placed it somewhere and I felt her sit next to me.

She just sit there and I could feel that her eyes are on me. I felt a light touch on my face and it sends me shivers.

She left the  room and I was lying there motionless. I looked at the food she brought me and I realized that I am hungry.

I saw a note that says “Good morning! Don’t forget to each alright? :*”

She can be really thoughtful. I ate my breakfast and this is like one of the best pancakes ever. I know Zandra can cook.

Her parents always brag about her cooking prowess. She never liked instants so I’m so sure that she made this pancakes from scratch. This is her own version. I finished my food and drank the coffee.

Lumabas na ako ng room at dala ko ang pinagkainan ko. I saw her peek out of her room and she smiled at me. I didn’t smiled back. Not because I hate her but because I’m still confused. If I’ll be too kind, she might think I love her, or worse, she might love me more. Baka masaktan sya.

I cleaned up and I saw a very long grocery list. Okay, I’ll take her shopping. My cards are not deactivated anymore. It’s nice of her to prepare breakfast and I know I should help her with these.

I could try to be nice to her. Yun nalang ang pwede ko gawin. Hindi ko man maibalik yung pagmamahal ng binibigay nya, at least maging mabait man lang ako sa kanya.

I went to her room and opened the door.

“Hey tubby. We’re going grocery shopping. Hurry down to the garage.” I said teasing her.

I saw her frown. She looks cute when she frowns. I closed the do and I can’t help but smile. She hates the idea that I called her tubby. I think the nickname “tubby” is cute. J
