Until The End Of Time

Chapter 6

It was Monday of 9:00 AM, July 24. Alice wait for Jonathan infront of the field. After few minutes, Jonathan showed up to Alice and sat beside her.

------

"b-bakit? Anong meron?"

"Akala mo hindi ko alam ah."

"Anong hindi mo alam?"

He's has no clue about Alice is about to say. He starts to get nervous and his palm starts to sweat.

"Na ginawan mo ako ng portrait sa Blue Canyon. Theater sa west valley, grabe ka ganyan ka na ba kabaliw sa akin?"

"What? Portrait? Ohh what a coincidence after all. That was a piece na pinagawa sa akin ng isang producer. So doon pala nilagay."

He can't look at her face even they were just few inches to each other, seating at the side bench.

"It was.... Very beautiful. Well I am beautiful alam ko naman yon pero.... The way you made that portrait, it touches my heart and soul whenever I looked at it. Kahit na ang epic and ang awkward ng moment na iyon. Na miss ko tuloy tumugtog ng harmonica."

"I'm glad na nagustuhan mo."

He smiled and slowly turned his head infront of Alice. Jonathan slowly getting comfortable with her. It was a good decision that he made that choice. That he showed up at the field.

"Tungkol sa narinig mo nung nakaraan sa-sa cafeteria.... Ano.... Ano kase eh. Kasi ganito yon-"

"Hasshh! Napaka torpe mo! Ang tikas tikas mo pero umaatras itlog mo kapag umaamin!"

She hit his head with her signature move that he always does whenever he saw Jonathan, her chop attack.

"(inhale/exhale) Alam ko naman eh. Kahit hindi mo aminin, syempre nakikiramdam ako. Hindi sa pagiging ambisyosa or what, pero malalaman mo naman kung may gusto sayo yung isang tao eh."

He's blushing and looking to the floor. He can't make a eye contact to her because of he can't do it.

"Well, kasi, I just... Want to confess something. I never have feelings to anyone nung buhay pa si mama. After she died, you were the.... Ano yung ikaw yung ano."

He's shaking to death. Shaky voice and sweaty forehead. Alice was dying laughing at him. He was so embarrassed and feeling so nervous about the situation.

"Atleast umamin ka ng feelings mo. I'm glad we felt the same way to each other. HA--HAHAHAHAHA! sorry, sorry di ko mapigilan. I need to go may klase pa ako sa creative writing. I hope gumaan pakiramdam mo sa ginawa mo. Bye!"

After she left, Jonathan can't even realize how he did that. It was his first time confessing a feelings from other people. He smirked and laughed  while he's alone at the bench. Looking forward from what's going to happen from the both of them.

"(sighs) That was......"

Another relief for him. For about 2 months that they're together at the same campus, he manage to do what he needs to do.

(3:00 PM)
-The same day-

Alice and her mother seating at the waiting room. Waiting for her name to be call out by the nurse. There's a lot of people having an appointment to Dr. Jenrick and in any moment, her name is next.

"So kailan? I'm ready to do it. Parent permission nalang kulang."

"Hanggang ngayon ba naman anak? Galit ka padin? Just.... 1 month. Give me a month to decide nak."

"Come on Claire, please ituloy na natin. Handa ako sa magiging resulta ng operation. Hindi naman ikaw ang magbabayas at the first place. Si Lola diba?"
