"Kelan mo ba ko sasagutin love?" As usual magkausap kami sa phone. Maghapon at magdamag kaming ganyan at hindi ako nagsasawa. Kapag wala akong pasok siya lang ang inaatupag ko. MInsan nga kahit may pasok ako, nagpupuyat ako para lang makausap ko siya ng matagal. Iba siya e, ang sarap niya kausap, nakakaadik.
"Sasagutin kita..."
"Talaga?!" Yes! Sasagutin niya na ko!
"Di pa ko tapos magsalita di ba?" Okay. False alarm, sorry.
"Sasagutin kita sa personal and not over the phone okay?" Na-excite tuloy ako, mukhang magpapakita na siya sa'kin! :)
"So magpapakita ka na ba sa'kin love?"
"Hindi pa sa tamang panahon."
"Puro ka naman sa tamang panahon. Tell me when would that be? Malapit na ang birthday ko and I'm looking forward to see you on that day. That's all I want Raffy. You do love me right?"
Hindi siya sumagot. Natatakot akong sabihin noiyang mali ako, na hindi niya ko mahal.
"Raffy, are you still there?"
"Uhm.. Yeah?"
"Look Raffy. I'm Sorry. I just don't know what to do. Yes, we talk everyday but it's not enough, I still miss you. I feel like you're there and yet I can't touch you. I'm so scared you'll run away and there'll be no way for me to find you."
"Hindi ako mawawala. I understand kung bakit ka nagkakaganyan but it isn't the right time yet please bear with me more..."
"I'm trying Raffy but I terribly love you. It's driving me insane."
"I'm sorry."
She sounded so vulnerable that she almost whispered. And with that she ended the call.
That was the first time we argued and that conversation left me confused. I kept asking myself if I was being too demanding or what is keeping her from meeting me.
I love her so much, isn't that enough?
