8 years ago, I met this young guy one year older than me whom I can't understand his language. It takes me 5 years to realize it's a language used by korean.
Up until now, I still hopes I can meet him again. I'm just 7 when I met him but I have this feelings towards him I can't explain. I am eager to meet him, if that happens.
"Yza! Faster . . . Mag fi-five na." Sigaw ni tita Yanny, mom's sister.
"Coming tita!" Sigaw ko pabalik. I put some powder in my face and run downstairs.
This day is my older brother's arrival who came from South Korea. He's an engineer there. My mom and dad also took a vacation there in I don't know months.
Nakarating kami sa NAIA at naghintay sa waiting area. Malawak ang ngiti sa labi ko dahil sa wakas, after 4 years na hindi namin pagkikita, magkikita na kami. I missed, and misses my brother so much.
In-announce na ang paglapag ng eroplano galing south korea kaya mas lalo akong na excite. I also felt nervous.
Nang nagsimula nang magpakita ang mga pasahero ay mas lumala ang kaba ko. Hindi ko alam kung bakit. Is it excitement?
"Kuya!" I shouted when I saw my brother with his luggage.
"Oh my little sister!" Niyakap niya ako. "Gumanda ka ah." Ngiti niya. Hinampas ko naman siya sa braso.
"Bolero."
"Kyle!" Ngumiti si tita at niyakap si kuya.
"Tita, how are you. Nakahanap ka na ba ng kahati mo?" Ngumisi si kuya.
Tita Alyanna's already 35 years old and yet she still hasn't gotten any husband. Perks of having a high standards. Tsk.
"I don't need any man in my life dear." Tumawa si tita kaya napailing na lang ako. Kung ako si tita naku . . . Sa ganda niyang iyan? Tiyak marami nang humalik sa sahig mapangasawa lang siya. Idagdag mo pang matalino siya and a President of a famous clothes line here in the Philippines and in the other country such as South Korea. Tsk.
Tapos mabait pa siy—
Natigil ako sa pagmumuni muni at parang huminto ang mundo ko sa nakita. Oh My God . . . This isn't a dream right? It isn't?
Next to a bunch of Koreans chatting beside us . . . A tall teen ager guy with a fair skin got my full attention. He's wearing a faded jeans paired by an addidas lose t-shirt with an addidas shoes. Astig! His black hair is messy like he just got up from sleep.
He changed so much . . .
"Han Ji Yoon." Bulong ko sa sarili.
