Tine's POV
"Woah.....Mga tatlong beses lang" he said and smile at me. "Bakit? Nagseselos ka ba?" ako? Magseselos? No way!. I wonder kung sino yung maswerteng babae na yun? "Ikaw? May girlfriend ka na ba or boyfriend?" tanong niya.
"Nope. But I have this one guy that I loved and got crazy for a long time pero wag kang mag-alala nakapagmove-on na ako. Nagsimula yun nung Prom Night nung Junior High. Dapat yung gabing yun ang pinakamasayang gabi sa buhay ng Highschooler pero hindi sa akin. Ang problema kasi wala akong last dance and that time biglang lumapit sa akin yung first love ko. He asked to dance with him. Sumayaw naman kami after that nagkwentuhan buong gabi. Nangako siya na sabay kaming magsesenior high kaso biglang nagbago ang isip ng mga magulang niya. Simula nung graduation hindi ko na siya nakita. Pero nakamove on naman din ako" I said and Sarawat looked at me amused.
"So you never been touched or had a date?" he said.
"Nakakahiya mang sabihin pero yun ang totoo!"
He chuckled. "Wehhh, sa mukha mo niyan? People must be blind" he scratch the back of his neck.
"yeah, and I want to keep it that way for now".
"That doesn't stop me for liking you. Even though hindi pa kita boyfriend, you're mine" he said. Making me look away again. Ahhhh. Pwede ba na tigilan na niyang magsalita ng mga sweet words or else. My feelings are getting stronger and stronger for this guy. "Alam mo ba yung feeling na may nakita kang special na tao at ngayon hindi mo na kayang ialis sa isipan mo. It's crazy" he looks at me. This guy is totally jerk. Click. Sarawat took another picture of me.
"Tara na nga, Umuwi na tayo!". I stand up and walked away. Hindi ko na mapigilan ang sarili ko dahil sa pinangsasabi niya baka mahalata niya medyo kinikilig ako sa mga banat niya.
Sarawat POV
"Okay medyo dumidilim na rin" naglakad na kami papuntang parking lot para kunin yung sasakyan ko.
"STOP!" sigaw ni tine. Kamuntik na ako malundag sa sigaw niya.
"What?" tanong ko.
"There!" he pointed. Tumingin ako sa tinuturo niya. A marvel store. Hinila ni tine ako at pumasok a store. Then I saw his reaction. All amazed and frozen. Mouth open and big eyes. I laughed.
He literally run inside the whole store, excited. As I stood there watching him happy. Then after 30 minutes he stopped running and observed the thing he's amazed the most. Lumapit ako sa kanya. It was stuffed toy of Captain America. He noticed me and look at me with his eyes saying buy-me-this-please.
"You want this?" I asked him.
"Yes, please. Wala akong dalang pera" he smiled at me. Tinignan ko yung price tag kung magkano. Nanlaki mga mata ko. Ang mahal! Sa maliit na stuffed toy na ito ang laki ng halaga. HINDING-HINDI KO ITO BIBILHIN!!!
Along the trip, he just can't stop smiling and looking at the stuffed toy I bought him. Ewan ko ba bakit ko yun binili.
We got to our apartment. Umakyat na kami sa taas at hindi pa rin nawawala yung ngiti niya sa kanyang mukha.
~Weeks has passed~
"Wow, close na close na kayo ngayon ahhh" Someone behind me whispered that made me shocked. I looked back and saw Nanay Glenn.
"Ayy Nanay Glenn ikaw po pala! Nagkakamabutihan na rin kami ni Sarawat?" sabi ko sabay kamot sa likod ng ulo ko.
"Nagmamabutihan? As in magjowa?" tanong niya sa akin na naguguluhan, teka! Mali ata nasabi ko. Ni hindi ko pa nga siya jowa.
"Ayyy hindi po, I mean magkaibigan lang po kami" pagpapalusot ko.
"Ano ka ba! Okay lang! Bagay kaya kayo nuh!" sabi ni Nanyay Glenn na ngayo'y todo ang ngiti. Grabe hindi ko inexpect kay Nanay Glenn na napakasupportive pala niya.
It's been a tough week for me. Medyo bihira na rin kami magkasama ni Josh, except kapag nasa school kami while Sarawat and I were starting to get comfortable to each other.
Lumabas muna ako para magpahangin, kung saan ako mapunta ng mga paa ko , ede go. Pero dapat lang na alam ko yung pabalik hahaha.
But suddenly something made me stop walking and gasped. OMG. It's that Captain America comic book? A limited edition?.
I jumped out in happines. I'm so lucky today! Oh glob! Nang subukan ko kunin, it moved.
Huh? What?
I walked a few steps and try picking it up again pero gumalaw ulot ito. Anong meron? May magic ba to? I tried picking it up again but it moves until I was actually running to catch it not knowing na nakarating na pala ako sa lugar na unfamiliar. It was a park, pero dumidilim na rin ngayon.
Uuwi na sana ako pero may nagsasabi sa aking mind na wag muna! Sayang ang Captain america limited edition comic book. I continue chasing it until I was in sort of a garden with a small hall were there was tables and chairs on it. Madilim pero hindi ako takot, maybe.
I kept on chasing it until the lights went open and I gasped when I saw Josh in the hall, wearing a casual outfit. Ang ganda ng mga ilaw, it surrounds the whole hall. Mayroon ding kandila sa ibabaw ng lamesa at may pagkain rin. I walk towards Josh, he was pulling the rope where the captain america comic was attached. Ngumiti ako sa kanya. Anong meron? Bakit hindi ko napansin yung tali? Hahaha. I blushed when I saw Josh smile at me. And getting my face red because of the candles. Ang romantic kaya ng candles.
"Well, I guess this is what call dinner. Have a sit" he pulls the chair and made me sit. I was blushed and dumbfounded that I don't know what to say. Oh Glob, nagdadate ba kami ngayon? Hindi man niya ko niyaya. "Were having a date aren't we?" he asked.
"We're having a date??" tanong ko. Lumaki ang mga mata ko. "Yes! I just missed you, kahit katabi mo lang ako sa room, lately kasi busy na tayo" he smiled. It made me blushed and smiled. Butterflies! I feel like crying kasi wala pang gumagawa nang ganitong kaeffort sa akin. But I need to stop it.
"Hi-Hindi ko alam ang sasabihin ko" I teared up a little. "This is too much. Thank you Josh". Is this it? Is he having a feelings for me too?. Or nag-aassume lang ako?.
"As a friend, I feel like I need to brighten you up" he said.
And we had a nice and dinner. We talk and talk and talk and laughed. We had a star gazing and it was also one of the best night I ever had. Josh was sweet. He made that for me. And I think nahuhulog na ako sa kanya pero he only think of me as a friend. It's Dissappointment. Oh how I love this night. A dinner in the garden and stargazing.
Ugh Bakit hindi mawala-wala si Josh sa isipan ko. What the hell is happening to me?
