Staring at the Sun [COMPLETED]

Chapter 12

"If that's the case...then I think the feeling is mutual."

That was my answer on his heartfelt confession. I knew I had feelings for him. I just don't know when it started. I was too indenial too to convince myself. It was right after he said those words that I had the courage to say it.

Hindi ko alam kung masyado ba kaming mabilis. I don't know him that much either. Pero ang sabi niya ay manliligaw siya sa akin so hindi pa kami.

I looked at the silver Rolex wristwach he gave.

Time... That's what he's giving me. Time to know each other and time to be together.

Hindi ko dapat minamadali ang lahat dahil bibigyan niya ako ng sapat na panahon para makilala ang isa't-isa. That's it I should just let things whatever will be.

"Gusto mo bang makilala ang mama ko Syve?" I asked him. We're having an early dinner in Bondi&Bourke tonight. It's a pretty classy Aussie restaurant in Davao. It could pass as a high-end foodplace perfect for a romantic dinner date. I wore a red fitted dress to fit in and complement Syverth.

"If you want then why not." ngumiti ako sa naging sagot niya. He's so thoughtful. He's letting me to do some first moves. He's afraid he'll rush me up if he does.

"Tomorrow? Start na kasi ng leave niya. She'll go to Singapore with her boyfriend." I chuckled remembering how much my mother and his partner wanted to be like millenials. Feeling teenager 'yung mga iyon.

"Ikaw ang bahala Loren. I'll wait for you to be ready." he assured me.

It was a very dreamy night after that dinner not until a new blog of me destroy everything.

'Loren Sy spotted in Menseng on dinner with a famous photographer'

There was really a photo of us in Grand Menseng eating but the paparazzi was too far to get a clearer image.

That was last week! Omg...
I scanned the comments below to see if anyone knows Syverth.

All I saw was hate comments again as usual saying how easy was it for me to jump from one boy to another.

Excuse me! Sila ang lumalapit sa akin duh!

'Ano yan the 10 year gap'

'Katkat girl!'

'Ang lupet ng sugardaddy ni Loren'

What the!? Anong katkat girl? Sa lahat ng comments ay doon ata ako nahighblood. Malamang ay kilala ng isang iyon si Syverth dahil tinawag niyanh sugardaddy. Excuse me 9 years lang ang gap namin no hindi 10!

Like before binalewala ko na lang ang lahat ng iyon. They say dogs bark when they don't know the person. Putak lang ng putak wala namang kaalam-alam. Mga feeling alam lahat sa akin. Excuse me I only let you see what I allow you to see!

I was a bit early today kaya I was shocked to see my girl friends too in the classroom at this time.
Tinitingnan nila ako gamit ang malapusag mga mata kahit noong lumapit na ako sa kanila.
I'm sure they've heard about the news already.

"May hindi ka sinasabi sa amin Loren." may pagtatampo sa tono ni Solene.

I know where is this going. I scanned the room to see if someone may be eavesdropping but we're alone together here. Mukhang plinalo talaga nilang iambush ako today.

"I thought we're best of friends Lors!" inirapan ako ni Ira. Hilaw lamang akong ngumiti sa kanila at naghintay sa kung ano pang sasabihin.

"So ano na Lor? Kayo na ba nong photographer?" Gabby asked.
