THIS ISN'T THE first time I woke up with a hangover. And even though I am a morning person, having a hangover always kills my mood.

Yet today was different, I woke up with a massive headache because of all the tequila and vodka I drank...but I don't seem to mind it. A huge smile was automatically plastered on my face despite the raging headache.

It's like nothing could ruin my day-not a storm, not even a last minute project for CTRA. As if I'm walking in a paradise of various fabrics and colorful textiles, even though I'm just standing in front of my balcony, holding a mug of milk.

And everytime what happened last night flashes back into my mind, a programmed blush crepts its way to my cheeks.

Until now I can't believe it. Herson likes me and he asked me to be his girlfriend. And what's more shocking was...he didn't give me a chance to say no!

Aaaaaaaa...I am single no more!

Oh no, is this real or am I daydreaming?

Umupo ako sa aking sofa habang patuloy pa rin ang aking utak sa pag-alala. Pakiramdam ko panaginip lang ang lahat ng nangyari. Napakabilis. Nakakagulat. Parang isang iglap, naging fairytale ang buhay ko.

Kagabi, halos hindi ako makapagsalita. Noong tinanong ako ni Herson at akmang sasagot ako, bigla niya na lamang akong niyakap at hinalikan sa noo. Pulang-pula ako habang sinasabi niyang sa 'kin na raw siya.

Hindi naman ako tatanggi pero hiyang-hiya pa rin ako. Kagabi ko lang rin tuluyang tinanggap na hindi lang basta "crush" ang nararamdam ko sa kaniya.

Pero ang pinaka-ikinagulat ko ay noong sinabi niyang matagal na siyang nanliligaw sa 'kin. All this time, all those spontaneous night outs we did...I thought he was just being friendly!

My phone buzzed on the coffee table. My smile widened upon seeing who texted me.

Herson: Good morning, baby. How was your sleep?

Oh my! Why is he calling me baby?

Dekko: Good morning! I have a bit of hangover but I'm alright. Did you have breakfast already?

I bit my lip while waiting for his reply. Should I call him baby too? Aaaaaa, I am not used to these things! I don't know anything...I need advice from Seri!

Kaagad kong binasa ang text niya nang mag-buzz ulit ang phone ko. My heart almost melted upon reading it, at the same time, I feel so shy...

Herson: No baby? I'm your baby too :(

Herson: I'm having noodles, baby. Let's date later?

Herson: I already asked Ate Grace to cover my shift at the shop, so you can't say no. Miss you already.

Is this really Herson I'm texting? Bakit siya ganyan? Why does he seem like a different person? He's so sweet...he's such a cutie...do I deserve this?
