Oxytocin (JaDine AU)

56 - After Boards

Napadpad naman kami sa may shore. Inalis namin yung slippers namin tapos naglakad-lakad sa may tubig for a while. 

We didn't talk. Nakaakbay lang siya sa'kin and we're simply walking. Pero I don't know. Ang saya ko. 

Who would have thought na I'd have this 'no? Yung kahit essentially wala kayong ginagawa, you're happy simply because you're together. 

I don't even know how exactly this works. Love's such a mystery (although if tanungin ko si Mark, he'd probably explain oxytocin and serotonin and stuff and that might ruin the moment). But whatever it is that makes it work, I just hope it'll last for a very very long time.

Maya-maya lang din medyo lumamig pa lalo and I think napansin ni Mark nung nag-shiver ako when a breeze blew by. Tumingin siya sa relos niya then nagyaya nang bumalik. I just nodded and let him lead me.

I was a bit distracted with my thoughts that I didn't realized at once na di kami papunta sa room namin kundi sa may pool area. 

"Teka, Mark--"

"I have a surprise for you." He suddenly says.

And bumalik yung kaba ko. Eto na ba?

But then he pointed to my back, sa right so sumunod ako ng tingin.

And I was really surprised to see Team R and Team M there, kasama pa si Doc Raffy at Baby Alexyz, pati si Dyna.

"Teka, bakit andyan kayo sa kabila???" Bigla namang tanong ni Tim. Natawa naman ako nung pinalo siya ni Hannah.

"Meron pa." Sabi naman ni Mark and then pointed naman sa left. At andun naman sila Mama at yung family niya. They're all smiling.

Andito lahat ng pamilya ko.

Yes, eto na nga yun. But suddenly, di na ko kinakabahan.
