The chance that I and Lance gave to each other made our relationship stronger. True that we learned a lot from those times that we weren't together. It was the best decision for me to not give up on Lance. If you love a person, fight for it. Don't let yourself get beaten by a mistake that has the ability to be corrected.
It is never true that in love, you can win or lose, I believe that there's no losing in love. Whatever the outcome whether you succeed on pursuing it or you get hurt, you still win. Having to love genuinely is already winning because it is something pure in you that you choose to share.
We are currently lying in a carpet that Lance placed in his unit's balcony, we decided to spend time gazing at the stars while talking about random things — school, work, future. He lend me his right arm to support my head. It is indeed a beautiful and solemn night, the stars in the sky showcase a wonderful scenario.
"Babe star ka ba?" ... Pipick-up line ang pogi.
"Hihihi ee baket?" ... Pacute ko namang tanong.
"Dahil katulad nila, your beauty makes me calm" ... Ang simple pero iba ang tama nun sayo. Alam niyo naman kahit gaano kasimple ang mga sinasabi basta sa taong mahal mo nanggaling sobrang maapektuhan ka nito.
"But you know babe dati you were already a star to me. Nung hindi pa tayo, nung panahong stalker mo pa lang ako, nung kuntento na ako sa pasulyap sulyap sayo kung nasan ka man ... you were someone who I can't reach just like those stars"
He continued talking while I was just listening, nakatingin pa rin kami sa langit na parang kasama sa usapan ang aming mga pinagmamasdan.
"Isa pa babe ... Star ka ba?"
Ano ba to? Wala na bang iba? Hahaha.
"Again? Ok fine. Bakit?"
Nilingon niya muna ako bago sumagot.
"Maganda ka lang kasi sa malayuan hahahaha"
Ay gago tong syota ko ah! Umupo ako mula sa pagkakahiga at tinitigan siya ng masama.
"Ahh ganon ha! Sa malayo lang pala ako maganda, etong sayo kyaaaaaaaaaah!!!"
Dinaganan ko siya na parang nagwre-wrestling at sinakal sakal.
"Whahahahaha joke lang babe joke lang bitawan mo na ako"
"Ayaw paparusahan kitang pangahas ka lapastangan binastos mo ang diyosa! Kyaaaaahhhh"
"Ayaw mo ko bitawan babe ah! You left me no choice but defend myself"
OMG! Kinabahan ako. Sa ilang segundo lang ay nagkapalit kami na posisyon ako na ngayon ang dehado dahil na-lock niya ako. Ang leeg ko ni-lock niya gamit ng legs niya making my head face his crotch. At ang loko mas hinigpitan ang pagdikit sa mukha ko sa parte niya. Gosh! Nafe-feel kong nabubuhay ang ari niya. He's wearing basketball shorts lang kasi. Eee manyak! Ehem!
Bago pa mauwi sa kung saan ang pangmamanyak niya sa akin ay kinalas ko na sarili ko at pinalo palo siya.
"Uhmp uhmp bastos bastos!"
He keeps on laughing. His laughter is a music to my ears.
We went back to our position. Holding hands looking up above again. Medyo hiningal kami sa kulitan kaya tumahimik muna kami pansamantala but I can literally feel our heartbeats. Lub dub lub dub.
