/KATHERINE'S PERSPECTIVE

"A-ano? Y-you're kidding, right?" tanong ko habang pinipilit tumawa. Malamang joke kasi yun.

"Me? I'm not." he looked serious.

"E-ewan ko sayo, Kenneth." sabay tawa ko pa rin nang pilit.

"Please?" hinawakan niya pa kamay ko by his both hands.

"H-ha? Ah, eh. Kasi..." hindi ko matuloy tuloy. Kasi sina mom at dad, pwedi na ba ako? Hindi ko alam! I never asked them about this. I know sinabi na nila nung una na fall in love. But that's it, there's nothing more that they have added. Di naman nila sinabi na magboyfriend na ako kaagad diba. Gaahd. Pressure!

"What is it?" he asked, still not letting go of my left hand.

"P-parents?" nahihiya kong sabi, di pa nga sure eh. Then I looked away.

He chuckled. "Don't worry about that. I already handled that." napatingin naman ako kaagad sa kanya. "So?"

"Uhh."

"Wait, why am I asking?!" sabi niya mostly sa sarili niya. Tapos binitawan na niya kamay ko. Ouch. Suko kaagad? I thought so. Sakit ha.

Yumuko nalang ako. Ewan ko kung ano mang expression niya. Basta gusto ko nang bumalik sa suite at matulog. Pakiramdam ko mahuhulog ako eh. Gahd!

"You are my girlfriend now." he proudly said.

"Ha?" napanganga naman yata ako dun. "Adik ka ba? Wag ka ngang ganyan!" nakakainis kasi.

"It's from the deal, alright? You're my girlfriend now whether you like it or you love it. Capiche?"

"So utos yan?"

"I don't know." he shrugged. "You like it as well, I know. So it's not probably like that." tumawa pa siya.

"Che!" I looked away to conjure a smile. Kasi naman ehhh. First time 'to. Una! First!

Is it official? January Seventeen. ❤

"Kathy, let's go back." he meant the suite.

I smiled. "Okay." tapos nauna akong maglakad. Nakakakaba eh. Naiilang ako. Parang ang bilis naman ata? Kakabati lang namin tapos... ganito na? Hala! Psh. Sabagay, dapat hindi naman talaga ako magalit sa kanya. Dahil unang una eh hindi pa kami nun, pangalawa hindi ko pa siya pinageexplain. Pero kasi! He said those three words, twice. Masakit yun. Pero bakit kapag nandyan siya, gumagaan na rin ako? Ay ewan na. Gulo ko lang.

"Kathy, wait." then he caught up and held my hand once again. Yung pang-holding hands na ulit. My gahd talga! Naalala ko tuloy nung papunta kami nun sa orphanage, ganito rin. Except ngayon, may iba na. Iba na ang status between us.

"Am I not your boyfriend? A real boyfriend should hold his girl like this." he's on my left, tapos yung right arm niya eh inakbay sakin, reaching for my hand and he held it so tight. "Kathy."

My heart hammered. Why is that when he whispers my name, I feel these bats in my stomach? Is it normal for a situation like this?

Napatingin ako. And his face was inches away. N-not here! May mga tao. Seriously! "H-ha?"

He let out a light chortle. "Nothing."

Umuwi kami sa suite nang ganun. May mga tumitingin na babae. Malamang, gwapo ba naman ng boyfriend ko eh. Wait! Did I say that? Boyfriend... Ko? I nearly wanted to jump. I'm just so ecstatic at the thought. :">
