Chapter 17:First Kiss.. For Real??

The Commitment...

The stage of taking risks.

Finally, after the friendship and courtship, we are now down to entering a relationship. Not just a simple relationship, but a serious one. Don't think that this is already the finish line of love, because we are still at the beginning of it.

Commitment, the assurance that both of you are officially on. Meaning you are now a lovers, boyfriend-girlfriend relationship, partners, a couple.

Entering into this very serious stage needs a lot of effort in able for the relationship to work out. Honestly, merely "love" is not enough. There are a lot of things attached to the word commitment. And as early as possible, we must learn all these things to maintain a healthy relationship.

If we are already committed to someone, we do not just love and take care of them. We must also give to our partner our trust, loyalty, attention and understanding.

Isn't it so simple? Big NO! It's not that simple as you think. As I said a while back, this is the stage where you take a lot of risks. This is not the easy part. This part has many challenges. In fact, soooooooooooooo many challenges and tests. But if you really love your partner, you will be able to pass all of those tests. You will survive!

Danger Zones...

In the middle of the relationship, you will encounter a lot of things. Things that will help you become a better you, to grow up and be mature.  And of course, this is going to be a really hard to deal with. And if you can't control these things, it will lead you into the most horrible thing that you can think of, the Breakup.

Danger zones must always be avoided in every relationship. Having a little bit - take note "a little bit" only – of these we so called danger zones is good, because once we felt it or we see it to our partner, meaning they really do love us. But too much of these can destroy a relationship. Because all we need in a relationship is balance, balance in everything..

1.      Selfishness – not because you're already committed to one another means that you own your partner. Take note, you're still both individuals, you just share the same relationship. Do you get what I mean?

Do not control your partner. Do not dictate to your partner what are the things he/she must do. Always remember that your partner has also his/her own decisions.

Before doing something, make sure that both of you agrees, so that there will be no misunderstandings. Always think about your partner's feelings.

If she wanted to go out with her friends, let her. So that, if you're the one who wanted to go out with your friends too, she'll let you go with them. Always be fair with one another.

2.      Jealousy – too much jealousy doesn't make any good in any relationship. It will just ruin your trust to your partner. Trust is one of the important things in maintaining a healthy relationship.

Once you felt this danger zone, talk to your partner. If there are things that needed some clarifications, ask and let him/her explain. Always have an open communication.

3.      Pride – Lowering your pride doesn't mean you're weak. If you're wrong in an argument, then be mature enough to admit your mistake.

Swallow your pride; it's not that hard to say sorry. Always remember that your relationship is more important than your personal ego.

Hmmm... ano ba naman to.. sino ba naman ang tatawag ng ganitong oras.. kasarapan ng tulog ko eh..

*Kyle calling...*

Ano naman kaya problema nito??

"Babe oh?? Bakit??" Nakapikit pa ako nang sagutin ko ang tawag nya.

(Kyle singing...)

**Ikaw na ang may sabi, na ako'y mahal mo rin

At sinabi mong ang pag-ibig mo'y di mag babago

Ngunit bakit sa t'wing ako'y lumalapit ika'y lumalayo

Puso'y laging nasasaktan pag may kasama kang iba

Di ba nila alam, tayo'y nag sumpaan, na ako'y sayo

At ika'y akin lamang.

Kahit anong mang yari, pag ibig ko'y sayo pa rin

At kahit ano pa, ang sabihin nila'y ikaw pa rin

Ang mahal, mag hihintay ako kahit kailan

Kahit na umabot pang ako'y nasa langit na

At kung di ka makita, makikiusap kay bathala

Na ika'y hanapin, at sabihin, ipaalala sa iyo

Ang nakalimutang sumpaan, Na ako'y sayo at ika'y

Akin lamang**

Biglang nagising ang dugo ko sa narinig ko.. Ang ganda ganda pala ng boses ng jowa ko.. Hihihihi.. Ngayon ko lang kasi sya narinig na kumanta.. Pakiramdam ko lumulutang na ako sa sobrang kilig!! ^_______^

"Happy 1st monthsary baby ko. Mahal na mahal kita. Pagbuksan mo naman na ako ah. Mahamog kaya dito sa labas." Malambing nyang sabi..

"Ha?? Asa labas ka?? Bakit di mo sinabi agad?? May pakanta kanta ka pa dyan nahahamugan ka na pala.." Agad akong bumangon sa kama ko at sumilip sa may balcony. Andun nga sya.. "Baby wait.. pababa na ko.."

Pero bago ako bumaba madaliang pagsisipilyo muna ang ginawa ko.. Nakakahiya naman kung haharap akong amoy bagong gising talaga.. hahahah..

Pinapasok ko sya.. Nang nasa loob na kami ng bahay niyakap nya ako ng mahigpit.. "I love you baby." Sabi nya sakin..

"I love you too baby." Sagot ko naman..

Nakaupo sya sa sofa sa may sala habang tinimplahan ko muna sya sa kusina ng choco drink.

"Babe inumin mo muna to oh habang mainit pa. Ano ba kasing pumasok sa isip mo at madaling araw ka pumunta dito."

"Baby alam mo ba yung tinatawag na surprise? Yun... uso kasi yun ngayon." Sabi nya sabay sarcastic na ngiti.

"Nakakatawa.. hmp." Sabi ko sakanya.

"I love you." Seryosong sabi nya habang nakatitig sakin. Hinawakan nya ang pisngi ko at hinalikan nya ako sa noo..pagkatapos sa ilong.. saka nya ako hinalikan sa labi..

Nanigas ang buong katawan ko nang halikan nya ako. Kinilabutan ako.. Hanggang likod ramdam ko.

Nakapikit sya habang hinahalikan nya ako.. Ipinikit ko ang mga mata ko saka ko sya ginantihan ng halik.

Kissing like an expert ang peg??  At sa wakas! May first kiss na po ako!!! Wooooooohooooooo!!!! ^_______^

"Swerte mo naman. Ikaw ang nakakuha ng first kiss ko." Sabi sakin ni Kyle.. At biglang namula ang mukha nya..

"Ang yabang mo naman. Ikaw nga dyan ang nagnakaw ng first kiss ko eh.." Sabi ko sakanya..

"Hindi ko naman ninakaw eh.. Ginusto mo rin." Sabi nyang nakangiti saka nya ko hinalikan ulit..
