I woke up on the right side of my bed, the sun telling me that I should get my butt off of my bed and start feeling the summer already.
I did my morning routine, pagkatapos ay dumiretso ako sa kusina para kumain ng breakfast. Ang weird nga eh, usually kasi nasa hagdan palang ako amoy ko na agad yung niluluto ni Yaya, pero ngayon pabango lang ni Papa yung naaamoy ko.
Pagdating ko sa kusina, may pagkain na sa lamesa pero nakatakip yung mga yun. I roamed my eyes around but I didnt see a hint of people, except for myself, and for one thing.
Lumapit ako sa ref only to see a green note on it, and it says, Enjoy your summer sweetheart. Well be back in a week. We love you, Mom
Hindi naman ako nagulat. Tuwing summer kasi talaga nagiging busy sila Mom since theyre handling a beach resort. They are much needed there than here though.
Babaeng marangal ako kaya naiintindihan ko sila. Charot hahaha.
After eating my breakfast, i went back to my room and flopped down on my bed. I reached for my phone and opened it.
Muntik na akong mapatalon sa tuwa nung makakita ako ng pagong sa notif ko. Inopen ko agad yun.
I miss you.
"Ahhhhh!" hindi ko na napigilan na mapatili. I was suddenly electrified by his message, it's like he was just sitting right next to me.
I bit my lower lip as I stared at those three words again. I can't stop myself from smiling. I rolled on the other side of the bed and tried to compose a message.
Pero napasimangot agad ako matapos kong tingnan yung message na kinompose ko.
I miss you too.
I tapped the backspace button and rolled my eyes. Napaka-cliche naman Bea. Wala na bang mas aayos pa diyan sa reply mo?
I sat on the bed and typed a much better reply that I have thought of.
Alam ko.
But before I could even send the 'airy' message I composed, my phone buzzed and it was another message from him.
Kita tayo.
Napatayo ako sa kama. Pinigil ko ang ngiti ko. I closed my fist so hard that my own nails is hurting my palm already. Hanggang sa hindi ko na kinaya ang kilig ko, sumabog nalang bigla.
I danced like a total wasted human in a bar, kembot dito, kembot doon, nasayaw ko pa nga ang chorus ng Bboom boom ng Momoland.
Tumigil ako nung pakiramdam ko ay malalagutan na ako ng hininga. Umupo ulit ako sa kama at tinuon ko palikod ang dalawang kamay ko. After a few minutes of resting, inabot ko ulit ang cellphone ko.
2 missed calls.
Maybe u're still sleeping. Text mo nalang ako paggising mo ha? Hihintayin kita.
Nahigit ko ang hininga ko sabay bitaw ulit sa cellphone ko.
Tumingin ako sa kisame. "Tangina, kinikilig ako."
I laughed matapos ko ulit maayos ang sarili ko. My heart's still racing while I'm typing the most pakipot message I have ever thought of so far. I sent it and looked at myself. Long shower Bea, you need it.
where ba? medj tinatamad kasi ako today.
Maya maya pa at nagreply din agad siya.
I'll come to ur house. let's hangout sa may lake if it's okay with u.
I smiled.
Okay.
After sending it, tumayo na ako at naglakad papunta sa banyo. Uhm, not naglakad pala, sumayaw actually. Like i'm dancing in a royal ball. I'm not crazy, i'm just happy. There's a difference.
