Love is in the air.
(MARAMI PA KONG REVISIONS DITO.. HAHA PAGPASENSYAHAN AT PAGTIYAGAAN NIYO MUNA)
Everyone seems to be busy living their lives with their partners. How I wish I also have one! What could be the feeling of being in a serious relationship where no one and nothing would hinder? Or have a special moment with the one you love without any doubts that it was just a dream after all? Love, truly, is wonderful for it makes me build castles in the air. I could feel those butterflies flying in my tummy. I’ve never been this happy since the day I met him.
It was the second day of classes when I got the chance to say “hi” to this mysterious boy. He was chosen to be the president of our class so I really had to approach him sooner. I took the chance during our Economics class kasi kailangan daw naming magbigay ng five pesos para sa syllabus. He was quite shy and was a bit nervous when we first had our small talk. I don’t had any idea why he was acting like that (maybe it was just normal for him to get nervous talking to people he don’t know). Anyway, that was how we officially knew each other. Since he was the president, I took his number and beeped him every time. Gusto ko lang talaga siyang kulitin. I needed to build that closeness with him so that I could get updated for class matters. It may have been selfish but our friendship soon turned out to be good.
Aside from the group of gals I belonged to, I really wanted to accompany him. Iba yung feeling na kasama ko siya kasi kahit wala kaming pinaguusapan, o kaya kahit wala kaming ginagawa, hindi maitatago ung saya na nararamdaman ng bawat isa. Well, awkward naman kase if we started getting together... and then I will just I pull myself out of the group just for him?? Gosh, that would be a big issue!! So I kept in touch with him while hanging out with my girls. I wasn’t craving that much to be at his side before, until this incident happened. My friends tricked me during the time that I obviously needed them for my school work. I failed for my preparation because of what they did. Of course I cried! I was so sad because that was the first failure I got in my college life. It was just a good thing that my report was postponed next meeting. Thank God for that miracle! Anyway, this incident built a gap between me and my girl friends. This made me feel so bad about trusting. On that very day, I decided to call Joshua and asked him to comfort me for awhile. Nasa library ako nun and I was alone waiting for him to come. I don’t know kung bakit sa lahat ng taong pwede kong tawagan siya pa ang naisip ko. Anyway, okay lang naman yun sa kanya kasi hindi naman siya super busy. Simula nun, we were doing things together. I was with him all the time. I was really happy to stay with him all the time and so I decided to treat and call him “kuya”. He stood as the fulfillment to my dream - to have an older brother. Each day came to be a perfect one when we were in each other’s company.
Then, rumors came that Joshua likes this girl. It was bit intriguing so I kept investigating about this. At that moment, my friends told me that Joshua obviously likes me. Some told me not to give in so sudden. Some were telling jokes about it. It gave me so much pressure. I felt irritated every time we were together because I got scared of what others might say. I’ve always been scared of rumors. Gossips blocked our connection. I knew that he was aware about those rumors. I was ill at ease whenever our eyes intertwine. I did nothing but to isolate myself from him so I can think about the possible moves I could do if ever the rumor was proven to be true. I was really alarmed like, "OMG, this cant be! kase kuya ko sya! Hindi pwede mawala yung kuya ko!"
Days passed by and our class would be having this educational trip. Everyone was excited about it. I used this moment to have the "talk" with him. I asked him if we could sit together in the bus since the seats were exact for my friends. Definitely, it would be awkward but that would be my only chance to clear things out with him. (Grabe, napakatorpe! Ako pa talaga ang naginitiate na makipagusap about that matter!)
