Ano 'to game show? Bakit meron pang Q&A?

"I'll ask you a question and all you have to do is simply answer back."

"First question. Are you dating anyone aside from me at the moment?"

"Date ba tawag sa ganitong lakad natin?"

"You're not suppose to ask me questions while I'm asking you. Just answer me."

Ay suplado mode ang BFF ko.  Dapat sumagot ako ng masyos at baka mapikon na siya sa akin.

"Ano ba kasi ang tanong mo? Bakit kasi kailangan pang tawagin date?"

"Why are making it hard? Just answer it."

"Okay fine. Wala akong dinidate, ikaw lang."

"Good to hear that from you."

Ay bongga nagustuhan niya ang sagot ko.  Kahit di nga niya ako tanungin alam niya ang sagot.  Siya lang kaya ang lagi kong kasama.

"Second question. Are you befriending anyone that is kinda suitable to be your boyfriend?"

"Wala naman akong kinakaibigan ibang guy, ikaw lang."

Obvious naman ang sagot. Bakit nagtatanong pa siya?

"Third question. Are you allowing anyone to court you at the moment?"

"Ayaw kong magpaligaw. Alam mo naman yan hindi ba."

Puro walang kwenta naman ang mga tanong ni Ian eh. 

"So basically, I am the only guy in your life, am I right? No need to answer that because it's obvious. You are not allowing yourself to be with anyone else but me."

Tama siya at alam niya kung bakit.  Ayaw ko ng sumugal sa larangan ng pag ibig.

"So anong ibig mong sabihin? Na mahal na kita bilang boyfriend, ganun? Hindi ba pwede mahal kita bilang kaibigan lang?"

"You're not convinced? So I believe you need more of my Q&A then."

Ay di pa ba kami tapos sa mga tanong niyang walang kwenta.  Akala ko titigil na siya sa kakatanong niya.

"Next question. Will you allow some guy to sleep with you on the same bed?"

"Of course not. You're being silly."

Bakit naman ako magpapatabi sa lalaki.  Ano ako tanga lang?

"That's what I thought."

"Will you allow yourself to live with a stranger, basically a guy in the same house?"

Hindi nga ako tanga di ba niya alam yun. Ang tagal na namin magkasama ni minsan di ako nagka interes sa mga lalaki.  Ang daming nakikipagkilala sa akin ngunit dumidistansya ako ng mabuti.

"Hindi pwede. Bakit naman ako makikisama sa isang lalaking hindi ko kilala sa iisang bahay. Syempre hindi."

"Good answer. Will you be so trusting to a person whom you've just met?"

Depende sa tao.  Depende din sa sitwasyon.  I'm not sure.  Ano ba itong mga tanong ni Ian sa akin?

"Siguro konti, pero syempre ingat pa rin kasi mahirap magtiwala lalo na kung lalaki siya."

"Honey, can't you see? You've lived with me for the past year. You let me sleep with you in the same bed for a long time now and I believe that you've trusted me since the first day that we've met.  I know that you still have commitment issues. I'm not complaining that you're not yet ready to take the next step to our relationship. Maybe you still think that you're still in love with your so called ex but believe me you've long forgotten about him. You no longer talked about him like you used to do before when we first met. It took you awhile to forget about him but I do believe that you no longer misses him. No one will ever believe that we're only friends honey. Why let yourself believe that when in reality we are more than that? We are couple whether you admit it or not.  The fact that we are living together since the day that we've met each other says it all. I'm not pressuring you to say Yes to me now cause saying so will only mean you're acknowledging our relationship. But whether you admit it or not honey, we are a COUPLE."
