Keeping a secret love | Juan Gomez de Liano

Kabanata 3

He looks so stunning.

The way he drop a word like a ball touching the ground, why I feel like I'm falling for him? This is not good. Alam ko may masisira sa amin pag umamin ako... alam ko may mag babago dahil alam ko may mahal na siyang iba.

How I wish na sana, walang bago kahit sila na ng gusto nya, na sana ako na lang.

Hay na ko. Happy Birthday KJ! Pinanganak nga siguro akong Killer Joy. Kaela Jayne pa moreeee!

We arrived at Pico de Loro, lunch time. Because of what I think earlier, I'm not in the mood to eat. I just want to go to my room to feel free. This is my birthday, can I just be happy for one last time? Can I just be with him? With no doubt and fear. Free to love him.

"ARGHHHHH!!!" I screamed in frustration. Out of million boys talaga Kae? Si Juan pa ha. Best friend mo pa! This is forbidden. Nakakahiya sa Family nya.

Gusto ko sumabog at magsabi ng masamang words. Kaso good girl ako eh. Hahahahahahaha. Nababaliw na ata ako. Hindi ko na alam.

"KAEEEEE!" Someone's knocking at my door.

"Wait lang, Cassandra!!!" Yeah, that's Cassie. My younger sibling.

"Kaela Jayne?! Alam mo Ate, kahit kailan ka talaga." She said with a poker face.

"Ayusin mo yang pananalita mo Cassandra Francine ha." I said

"Hehehehehehe peace tayo birthday girl. Bilisan mo na kasi ateeeeeee."

"Bakit Cassie? Dinner pa di ba? Nagmamadali ka?" I almost shouted

"No ate, tara na." At hinatak nya na ko.

Once we step at the lobby, a man gave me a daffodil. My favorite flower...
Siguro kila Mom to galing kasi sila lang naman nakakaalam non ni Cassie.

Ah, Cassandra. Kaya ka nagmamadali.

But my jaw dropped when I saw a man. Facing the sunset. Wearing a white shirt holding a box of Nestle Crunch. My favorite chocolate. Tears pooled in my eyes, Juan. My dearest Juan... God is really great, giving me the greatest give that I can tresure forever.

"You think, hindi kita susurpresahin?" He asked.

"How did you know na daffodils are my favorite?" I asked when I smell the flowers.

"Jayne, since then I know you. I knoe when you're sick, I know when you're down and I know your favorites." He said while looking directly to my eyes.
"Alam ko pasikot sikot ng bituka mo. That's why." He added.

"Weh? Patay na yata atay natin Gerardo, alam mo ba yon?" I joked. "Pero, thank you so much Juan. Thank you for making my every birthday memorable."

"No need to thanks, Jayne. It's for you. I'm always for you. I love you, my best friend.."

MY.. BEST.. FRIEND..
