A Promise

Chapter 23

We are currently here at the balcony of the restaurant. Enjoying the city lights, keeping me amaze and cold air touching our bodies. My head is at Ricci's chest, resting and his hands were placed at my waist. Siguro mga thirty-minutes na kaming ganito. I just feel that this kind of moment is something to treasure for my whole life.

After he cried, tinanong ko siya kung bakit siya umiiyak kasi wala talaga akong idea kung bakit. Because he don't really cry, like I didn't remember the last time I saw him like that. He said that it's a tears of joy. Na, sobrang saya lang daw niya and he is so overwhelmed sa surprise. Hindi daw niya enexpect na i su-surprise siya ng ganoon. Sabi ko naman, why not diba? It's just one move to show my love for him.

And then after that, we ate everything we can! Yes! Nakakain na ako! Ilang beses akong sinabihan ni Ricci na mag hinay-hinay lang sa pagkain. Baka naman daw mabulunan ako or something. E, anong magagawa ko? Gutom na gutom na talaga ako! Di ko na kaya!

And you know what? Na sermonan pa nga niya ako e. Kasi naman, tinanong niya pa ako kung bakit gutom na gutom daw ako, and sinabi ko na inuna ko muna yung pag prepare nito bago ako kumain. So ayun, may little sermon po akong natanggap ngayon.

I know people are going insane. Yung idol mo ba naman may girlfriend na diba? Yung iba matutuwa, pero syempre yung iba maiinis at magagalit pa. Ricci took a photo of me bago kami kumain. I po-post daw niya. Pero hindi dahil gusto niya na i-post lang, naiinis daw kasi siya sa mga lalaking nag me-message sa'kin sa IG asking if I'm single. Sabi pa nga niya lalasunin niya daw yun isa-isa eh. Loko, diba?

He posted this on IG.

• ricciiirivero Gago!

"Thank you so much bub," He said out of nowhere. I looked at him but his eyes are on still in the view.

"You don't know how happy I am right now. Like, I've never been this happy to the point I want to hug every person I see." He said. Napatawa naman ako sa sinabi niya. OA naman po, Sir Ricci.

"Tawa-tawa ka dyan, totoo nga! Gagawin ko talaga 'yun... pero ayoko lang gawin kasi mamaya mag selos ka," he said. Kumunot naman ang noo ko. Ako? Mag seselos?

"Ayoko naman na unang araw pa lang ay meron ng ganoong mga issue. Hmm, pero baka bukas pwede na," ani niya sabay tawa sa harap ko. Hinampas ko ng mahina yung braso niya. Parang timang 'to!

"Oh, well... if that's the case, please make sure that she is way better than me. You know, just informing you in case you didn't know. I don't usually get jealous," I said with full of confidence. Loko ka ah.

"Nako, pano ba 'yan! Edi hindi kana mag se-selos niyan!" Pinanliitan ko siya ng mata. "Bakit ba kasi gusto mo ako mag-selos?" tanong ko. But instead of answering me, he smirked at me!

"Sorry to disappoint you, but I won't that. But I can say one thing... ikaw lang yung pinaka maganda, lalo na sa mga mata ko." He said. Syet! Yan! Ganyan po siya mag pakilig! Lantaran po talaga!

I couldn't answer anything! Natameme ako! I don't know what to answer sa mga ganyang bagay ni Ricci. Lalo na pag kinilig din ako. Buysit!

"Sige lang bub... ayos lang yan. Alam ko namang kinikilig ka e, 'wag mo ng itago. Okay lang talaga, no problem at all." Pag mamayabang niya sa'kin. Ay, wow ha. Iba naman pala ang isang Ricci Rivero!

"Huh? Hilo ka? How can you say na kinilig ako? Aber?" I said to him. He laugh and look at me.

"Hmmm. Just simply look at your face and it will tell it all." He said habang nakahawak sa baba niya.

Oo na! Kinikilig talaga ako! I know he can see it kasi my cheeks are super red na! Feel ko rin eh!

"Ay, nga pala bub. Sabi ni mom sabay na daw kayo bukas sa arena. 6 PM pa naman yung game eh." He said. Oo nga pala, may laro na siya bukas.

'Ay, hindi na bub! I'll go myself nalang. Nakakahiya, mamaya maabala pa sila tita." I said to him for assurance.

Nag taas siya ng kilay. "Well, it's not for me to decide. Sila mom yung nag aya, so I'll tell them nalang mamaya kung papayag sila." He and nag bleh sakin.

Boyfriend ko ba talaga 'to?

Inirapan ko nalang siya at niyakap. Parang gusto ko nalang siya yakapin lagi. Bukod sa I feel safe here, ramdam ko yung mga abs niya. Syet ka Hailey! Landi mo gaga!

"Thank you, Ricci. I'll try my best to be the best. I love you... ever since."

I said and kiss him.
