Between The Two of Us

Chapter 17

Chapter 17

I can feel the butterflies in my stomach playing around, I can see glitters of lights in everywhere, and lastly, I can hear the rhythm of my heart beating.

I never thought that falling inlove can make you feel this way.

Something unexplainable, something raw, something foreign, yet something overwhelming.

Hawak ni Tyrell ang kamay ko habang nagdadrive sya papunta sa school. After three weeks of Christmas break, we're back to school again.

And I still cannot believe it. Tyrell Jander Cortez is my boyfriend. Parang kahapon lang nung nagkita kami, tapos naging magkaibigan. Now, I can call him mine.

So back off bitches. This guy is mine!

Natawa ako sa mga naisip. I'm getting silly lately. Tyrell squeeze my hand so I looked at him.

"You okay?"

Nag-init ang pisngi ko sa tanong nya. Pansin nya ba yung pagtawa ko? Bigla akong ginapangan ng kaba. Hindi pa din ako makapaniwala.

After that night, we stayed silent. Lalo na ako. Hiyang hiya ako at kabadong kabado. But, he was able to gave me assurance.

"Don't worry. Nothing much won't change. Expect for the fact that you're now my girl." hw whispered at me. Lihim akong napangiti.

Atleast, nothing much won't change because that would be really awkward.

Last meeting din namin yun. My family went to our province to celebrate Christmas with relatives. Nag out of the country naman sila.

He never fails to call me everytime. Update me and all. May mga sinend din syang pictures nila ni Chin. Namiss ko tuloy bigla.. Si Chin. Well, uh, pati na din sya.

The girls knew about it. Sobrang excited at saya nila na pinaghahandaan na agad nila ang anniversary namin.

"I'll mark my calendar. Ililibre mo kami ng araw na yan!" si Andy. Natawa ako sa kanya.

"Right!  Ikaw ang pinakamasungit Ikaw pa nagkajowa? Justice please." ani Arielle. Umirap ako sa kanya.

"Kung Hindi kasi kayo tulak ng tulak edi sana may boyfriend na din kayo."

Natahimik sila sa sinabi ko. Umiling ako at tumawa sa kanila. Mga guilty!

"B-Basta libre mo kami." si Arielle. Tumawa lang ako at hindi na sumagot.

Ngayon pa lang naiisip ko na na mas gagastos pa ako sa ililibre ko sa kanila kaysa sa ireregalo ko kay Tyrell.

Nang nakarating kami sa parking ng university ay kinuha ko na agad ang mga gamit ko para sana makapasok na pero pinigilan ako ng Tyrell.

"Bakit?" takang tanong ko.

"I have something for you." he said and smiled. Kumunot naman ang noo ko sa kanya.

Pinanood ko sya habang may kinukuha sa likod ng sasakyan. He handed me a small paper bag with a branded name. My brow arched.

"Ano to?" kinakabahang tanong ko. Tyrell chuckled at me. Alam nyang kinakabahan ako at natutuwa sya sa mga reaksyon ko!

"Open it."

I narrowed my eyes at him as I took out the small box on the paper bag. Umawang ang labi ko ng makita ang isang silver necklace na may cresent moon pendant.
