CHAPTER 9: SECRETS
One cold night sitting beside Andhy talking, laughing and teasing. He said something that came to my surprise. We were talking about our childhood. I was telling him that because of me our friendship goes down. That if I hadn’t had a crush on him he would never have never talked to me and we might never had a gap for a long time. He stops me for talking about it and said that it wasn’t my fault exactly. He said that the reason why he never talked to me was he likes me also that he was afraid of showing it. He was chickened-out in short. I was shock and couldn’t believe it at first but by the look in his eyes I knew that he was telling the truth.
I was overwhelmed knowing that he loves me also. All the years I’ve dreamt of him to like me too had finally come true. Luckily the like became love. We both fall in love at the same time with each other. We were madly in love. And when his lips touches mine no words can explain how happy I am to be kissed by the man I dreamed of, my Andhy. In that moment I wanted the whole world to know how happy I am and how in love we were.
When the news spread like a mad tornado in our families, friends and neighbors they were all surprised but happy for the both of Andhy and I. They all wishes us luck and happiness.
We spend a lot of time together, walking down the street or hanging-out at the restaurant or just hanging-out with friends. One day we decided to go somewhere that nobody knew us, away from the town. We spend a night in a private resort just the two of us. First, we took a dip in the pool. Cuddling, fooling around and teasing each other. Then it starts to rain. When we start to chill we got back to the room and change. Then we had our dinner.
The rain had never stopped yet. His arms wrap around me while staring at the water that falls from the glass window and listening at the sound of the rain falling from the sky to the roof. Silence never bore us as long as we were together. Andhy moves his head closer to my ear and whispered to me for the first time that he loves me. I looked at him with a smile on my face and said I love him back. Our eyes locked and slowly our lips meet. It was a kiss of love that could last forever. We both knew that we were going to be intimate that night. Slowly we took off our clothes one by one and lie on the bed and cover ourselves with the white sheet cover. When he was kissing my neck going to my shoulder and back to my neck again I whispered to him that I will be giving myself for the first time. He stops and looked at me for a second. Then he holds me so tight and murmured that he would be very gentle. That night we shared something very special that we became one.
As the days gone by Andhy and I were unstopable on being together. We planned to go out of town with Lana and her boyfriend Tim. For three days and two nights of being just the four of us was one of our memorable moments. Exploring the town, a lot of shopping, eating non-stop and enjoying each others company. And when we were all back at the Villa we would hang-out at my place. It was kindda our routine, Lana and I will prepare the setting. We would get a big blanket and place it in the garden in front of the house. We put some pillows and an extra blanket in case we get cold outside. When the guys arrive we all lie down on our back on the ground and look at the sky staring at the stars above. We stayed up until midnight. Sometimes Aisha joins with us. We play cards or we exchange stories or eating together or sound tripping or just hanging-out with each other. It was almost perfect. Being with Andhy and being with my closest friends. I could never ask for more.
Every December on Christmas Eve I have the same routine for years. Attending an evening mass then celebrate the Noche Buena with my grandparents then go to sleep. But this year my routine had change. I still did attend the evening mass but this time with Andhy. We had our Noche Buena together in my place and in the garden. Later in that evening Lana and Tim came over and join in. Together we spend the Christmas Eve eating, exchanging gifts, talking, laughing and enjoying the cold Christmas night.
