I have so many fears in life. Takot ako sa dilim. Takot akong mag-isa. I’m even scared of death, because I don’t want to be left behind. Natatakot akong madapa dahil hindi ko alam kung may tutulong ba sa aking maka-bangon at magsimula muli.
My college professor once asked me, “What’s your greatest fear in life?”
I answered him, “I’m afraid to fall in love.”
I heard giggles and sneers behind me. Eh sa totoo naman eh. Ikaw kaya ang magkagusto sa childhood friend mo na kahit hanggang ngayon ay nanghuhula ka pa rin kung may feelings din siya sa’yo.
I’m afraid that he might not love me back. His gestures sometimes imply na parang kami, na parang hindi. Pero ayokong mag-assume. Baka sa huli, pareho lang kaming masasaktan.
I’ve never been in to a relationship, and so is he. Pareho kaming single since birth. So we’re venturing into this what we called an agreement.
Mapanindigan kaya namin?
Will we be able to realize that we’re meant for each other? That we are each other’s happiness?
Who knows? We might even get there…
