The other way around

Chapt 7

Di ako lumingon sa kung sino man ang nag salita. Kaya Tumabi sya sa paglalakad sakin. Di ako huminto sa paglalakad. Kilala ko kung kaninong boses yun....

"Bakit parang wala ka sa mood? kanina ako ung badtrip ngayon ikaw"

"Ahh. Heheh wala to nagmemorize lang ako"

"San ka ba umuuwi? hatid na kita. Pinagtanggol mo ko knina eh nung pinagtatawanan ako ng mga kaibigan ko"

This time. Huminto ako. "Romeo.. hindi na.. Malapit lang naman yun eh tsaka di ka ba mag prapractice ngayon?"

"Yun naman pala eh malapit lang. Di rin ako mag prapractice ngayon maglalaylo muna ako baka galit pa sakin yung Captain ball namin"

"Ah ganun ba. Geh. Ikaw bahala" Pa cool lang ako nyan pero sa loob ko nagwawala na ako. Ikaw ba naman ihatid ng Crush mo Take Note Crush mo. Romeooooooo!

Pumunta na kame sa kung saan sya nakapark pinagbuksan nya pa ako ng pinto. heaven to ateng Heaven!!

Nung tumatakbo na ang kotse, Sobrang tahimik namin. Kaya binasag ko ang katahimikan. "Pwede bang buksan ang radyo mo?" tanong ko. "Sige Fm yan ikaw na magbukas" Binuksan ko naman yun.

Radio On:

--Di mo alam dahil sayo ako'y di makakakain Di Ri--

Ano ba tong Kanta!? Next.

---Langit ang buhay sa tuwing ika'y--- Next.

OPM ganun!? Tinignan lang nya ako siguro iniisip nya sinisira ko ung radyo nya eh puro Tagalogang kanta eh.

(NP:"Passenger Seat")

I look at her and have to smile

As we go driving for a while

Her hair blowing in the open window of my car

-

Ngumit sya. Ramdam kong nakatingin sya kaya tumingin ako sa bintana.

-

And as we go the traffic lights

Watch them glimmer in her eyes

In the darkness of the evening

-

Tsk. Sana laging ganito. Yung alam kong imposible pero atleast naramdaman ko.

-

And I've got all that I need

Right here in the passenger seat

Oh and I can't keep my eyes on the road Knowing that she's inches from me

-

We stop to get something to drink

My mind clouds and I can't think

Scared to death to say i love her

-

Then a moon peeks from the clouds

Hear my heart that beats so loud

Try to tell her simply

That I've got all the I need

Right here in the passenger seat

Oh and I can't keep my eyes on the road

Knowing that she's inches from me

Oh and I've got all the I need

Right here in the passenger seat

Oh and I can't keep my eyes on the road

Knowing that she's inches from me

Oh and I know this love grow

Oh I've got all the I need

Right here in the passenger seat

Oh and I can't keep my eyes on the road Knowing that she's inches from me And I've got all that I need

Right here in the passenger seat

Oh and I can't keep my eyes on the road Knowing that she's inches from me And I've got all that I need

Right here in the passenger seat

Oh and I can't keep my eyes on the road Knowing that she's inches from me And I've got all that I need

Right here in the passenger seat.
