Maybe You & I

DAN

I don't know what got into me. I played the song that I found from the collection of Mommy. I liked it the first time I heard it and it has been in my llaptop and collection of music eversince. Hindi naman ako sentimental or anything. Hindi rin ako romantic. Pero I like the song. And damn I am sharing it with this minor in my house. When I played it, she listened to the first stanza and she looked at me. Wide eyed.

"Anong song to?"

"Reality."

"Is this old?"

"Yeah. It's probably a 35 years old song. "

"You like old songs?"

"Yes."

She looked at me and then closed her eyes. she was listening to the song. I stood there looking at her. She's beautiful. If you don't know her you would think she's 18 or 20. She is well developed in the right places. She has a beautiful face. Her skin is fair, flawless, makinis. Then she opened her eyes and came nearer. Lumapit siya. Hindi niya tinatanggal ang pagkatitig niya sa akin. I stood there waiting for her first move. Nag aalangan siya. I stood there. Damn, bakit ako kinakabahan? Tangina! Ang dami namang mga babae na ang lumapit sa akin pero bakit parang natatakot ako dito sa isang ito. Then nung palapit na siya, natapos bigla ang kanta. She stopped.  Iba na kasi ang kanta, kay John Legend na.

"Replay the song"

"What song?"

"Yung Reality."

 I replayed it. I watched her listen to the first lines and then she came nearer. She wounded her arms around my waist. My heart was in my throat. Tangina! Bakit ako kinakabahan? Ang lakas ng kabog ng puso ko. Sana hindi niya marinig. She placed her head on my chest. And then isinubsub niya ang mukha niya sa dibdib ko. She inhaled. I also inhaled. Her arms tightened around my waist. She raised her face to me. Damn ang galing niyang umarte. Alam ko umaarte siya. She licked her lips when she looked at me. I looked down at her, I wrapped my arms around her. We're acting di ba. She stiffened pero hindi naman matagal. Parang nagulat lang siya. Then afraid that I might do something to her.

"O ayan magaling ka na."

"Ganun lang ba dapat? Eh bakit hindi mo naman ako tinignan na parang inlove ka din sa akin?"

"Eh praktis lang naman eh."

"Gusto ko na kahit practice I want you to do it too. Let's do it again."

"Haaaynaku kayong mga kabataan talaga eh."

"Bakit bata ka pa naman ah. YOu're just 22."

"I'm ancient pag ako katabi mo. Sobrang tanda ko na."

"Oo na. Pero let's do it again Tatang."

"Tatang talaga?"

"Sabi mo matanda ka na eh."

"Hahahaha, sige come here."

'Play the song again"

"Eh pano na lang kung walang song eh di baka hindi mo na kaya."

"Kaya ko."

"Sige nga."

Then I stood straight. I spread my arms for her to get into my arms. She willingly came to my arms. Once our body touched, she wound her arms around my waist and I cradled her in my arms. We stood there for a while. Then all of asudden yung kanta na kanina ay gusto niyang tumugtog ay nag play. I looked down at her and then she looked up at me. We stared at each other. Hindi ko alam pero parang may demonyo na nagtulak sa akin. I dipped my head and kissed her on the lips. She was shocked but did not stop me. I wanted to stop. Pero parang ang bigat ng katawan ko na lumayo sa kanya. She obviously does not know how to kiss. Sloppy pero trying to match mine. Damn it Daniel, stop it. KINSE ANYOS lang siya. That woke me up from the thing I was doing. I wanted to kick myself for doing it. I stopped the kiss and pushed her away from me.

"Sorry. Sorry I should not have done that."
