Dala-dala ang isang palumpon ng paborito niyang bulaklak, nakangiti akong pumunta sakan'ya. Nang makita ko siya ay agad akong umupo sa damuhan at inilapag ang bulaklak.
"Hi Love, kamusta ka na?" Tanong ko habang tinatanggal ang dumi na nakapalibot sakan'ya.
Tumitig ako sakan'yang mukha na nakangiti, ngiting punong puno ng kaligayahan, walang bahid ng pagpapanggap. Muli kong inalala ang aming masalimuot na nakaraan.
"Ame, paturo nga rito sa Math, hindi ko maintindihan kung paano 'to nakuha." Nahihiya kong sambit.
"Patingin nga, ahh eto, sige ganito 'yon." Agad niyang tinuro sa'kin kung paano gawin iyon. Sa katunayan naiintindihan ko naman talaga ang topic na 'yon, gusto ko lamang gumawa ng paraan upang makapag-usap kami ni Ame.
Napatitig ako sa mukha ni Amethyst. Maganda naman siya, pero hindi agad ito nakaaagaw pansin. Matalino rin siya kung tutuusin kaso may pagkatamad nga lang siya. At higit sa lahat, marunong siyang makibagay, kung tutuusin pw'puwede niya nang makuha ang "Most Friendly" award kung meron manggano'n.
"Huy! Anyare sa'yo boi? May naiintindihan ka ba sa pinagsasabi ko?" Tanong niya
Napakamot ako sa ulo, nagpapanggap pa rin na wala akong maintindihan "Ah— eh... Hindi pa rin masyado eh. Uhm, okay lang ba kung tutor'n mo 'ko rito?" Itinaas ko ang aking kanang kamay, "Promise, babayaran kita kahit anong gusto mo." Itinaas niya lamang ang kan'yang hinlalaki, na nangangahulugang pumapayag siya.
Simula nung araw na 'yon ay araw-araw na kaming nagsasama, she was teaching me the topics that I already know, I still act like I wasn't able to catch up with our lesson so that she could continue to teach me.
As the day goes by we got closer and closer, we were inseparable. Madalas na kaming magkita, sinasamahan namin ang isa't isa kahit saan man kami magpunta. That's why I thought that maybe this will be the right time to confess my feelings to her.
"I like you— no scratch that, I love you Louie Amethyst Garcia. Please let me prove that I am worthy of your love." I said while staring at her and holding both of her hands. With a bit tears surrounding her eyes, she said yes.
Tulad lamang ng mga ginagawa ng mga lalaking nanliligaw, lagi ko siyang hinahatid sundo, binibilhan ng pagkain kahit na ayaw niya dahil meron naman siyang sariling pera, pinapasaya ko rin siya kapag nalulungkot siya, miski pamilya niya ay niligawan ko, araw-araw pinaramdam ko sakan'ya kung gaano ko siya kamahal.
"Sinasagot na kita, Ty" She said with a big grin in her face. I suddenly hug her from her waist, carried her and spin around.
"Fuck, thank you Ame." I said as I let her waist go, then my hands went to her face and kissed forehead, making her giggle. I hugged her again and buried my face on her shoulders, it may sound gayish but I fucking cried because of the happiness I felt.
As I was crying, she didn't teased me, instead she just caressed my hair, and whispered three words in my ears. "I love you," she said, which made me tighten my hug.
Months passed, mas lalo lamang kaming nahuhulog sa isa't isa. Everything was perfect, it was actually beyond perfect. I gave her everything that I have, even my virginity. We trust each other that's why we never fight ng dahil sa maliliit na bagay, we always settle things before it could get bigger. We were maturing and growing together. Maraming tao ang naiingit sa relasyon namin dahil mas matibay pa 'to sa bakal.
A year passed, hindi na kami magk'klase, it's kinda hard since we barely see each other lalo na't maraming schoolworks, pero we keep in touch naman at kapag may time nagkikita kami.
There was this girl in our room, classmate ko, si Kianna. Maganda siya, she's actually our muse, pero bukod sa maganda siya, matalino rin siya, she's a total package. They said that she likes me, but I ignored her, the hell do I care, I am contented with my girl.
