We drove to the Georgian Bay after naming kumain

Mejo kinakabahan ako na parang excited

Di ko alam yung nafi-feel ko

Di ako mapakali while in the car

"Alex, okay ka lang ba?" tanong ni Ace

Did he notice that I was fidgeting?

"huh? uh, yeah, okay lang ako"

"alright" he was still a bit suspicious

Finally, nakarating na din kami sa Bay

Agad akong bumaba at tumakbo sa washroom

Di ko na hinintay si Ace na makababa

I was walking back and forth

Trying to think kung paano ko ba sasabihin kay Ace

Huminga ako nang malalim at lumabas na nang washroom

Pagka labas ko, agad lumapit sakin si Ace

"ano okay ka lang ba? May sakit ka ba?" panic niya

"ahh wala, I just needed to pee really bad" excuse ko

Nakahinga nang maluwag si Ace

Di ko alam kung pano sisimulan to

Di ko alam kung pano sasabihin kay Ace

Paano nga ba?

"uh, Ace, may sasabihin ako. For now makinig ka na lang muna"

"okay" that's all he said

"so, naalala mo ba nung nag confess ka sakin nang feelings mo and on the same day nag confess din ako?"

He nodded slowly
And he smiled thinking about it

"well, let me tell you this. I really wanna be with you Ace.
For the rest of my life, ikaw na yung gusto kong makasama."

He looked confused

"Ace, I'm saying that, lets officially date"

Hinihintay ko yung magiging reaction ni Ace

Nauutal si Ace at di niya alam yung sasabihin niya

"so, you're saying na, tayo na? sinasagot mo na ako?"

Tumango ako nang oo

I smiled at him
I looked down to my feet
Kasi medyo nahihiya ako

And then I looked up to see his reaction

He had this happy looked on his face

Kakaiba yung ngiti niya

May mga kinang sa mga mata niya

Lumapit siya sakin at niyakap ako nang mahigpit

He looked me in the eyes

His eyes were smiling too

Bigla siyang humarap dun sa Bay at sumigaw

"YES, SINAGOT NIYA NA AKO! WOOO!"

Inakbayan niya ako "GIRLFRIEND KO TO! AKIN NA SIYA!"

"Ace! Sshhhh!"

Nahiya ako para sa kanya

Baka mamaya may tao sa paligid, nakakahiya talaga

But it's kind of sweet, pinag mamalaki niya ako sa mundo
