To the nights we spent

21

After that night, we looked forward to see each pther everyday. Days passed but we are still that happy, kung gano kasaya nung sinagot ko siya, ganun rin kasaya araw araw. He became more sweeter, expressive and most importantly....clingy.

He's hands on my waist while walking at the mall. We decided to took a break since classes are so stressful. We didn't have the chance to have time for each other because the teachers started their lecture again.

His side profile is so handsome, his sharp freaking jaw! That can leave you dead. His eyes too! Para sakin sobrang ganda ng mata niya, it's color brown actually.

"Love, where do you want to eat?" He held my hand and looked at me, i smiled. "Alam mo na yun diba?" Mukhang masaya siya ngayong araw, not that his not happy everyday...it's just that he's extra happy.

"Oo nga naman diba? Bakit ko pa tinanong?" Pinalo niya ang sarili niya na ikinatawa ko. "Bakit parang sobrang saya mo ngayon?"

"Hmmm, you didn't know that my happy pill is beside me today?" Piningot niya pa ang ilong ko! "Happy pill ka diyan!" Pinalo ko siya ng malakas, hindi naman ganun kasakit pero syempre, anong karapatan niya?

Char. Syempre okay lang sakin.

Dumating na kami sa KFC at sakto walang tao. "Upo kana bb, order na ako!" Kinindatan niya ako, bago pa ako umangal, pumunta na siya sa counter! He's always been like that....gentleman Walter.

Umupo na ako kung san man madali ako makikita, after a few minutes, marami ng mga tao na nagsisidatingan sa KFC. At sa wakas rin, dumating na si Walter.

"What took you so long?" I asked. "Nagsidatingan kasi mga tao Yhi eh, pero eto na, gutom kana ba?" Inabot niya sakin ang utensils, at inayos ko naman ang mga inorder niya.

We prayed before we ate. That's our habit, ever since na we'll eat together, he have the habit that before we eat, he'll always say 'pray muna tayo, love.'

"Hala!" Napatayo siya ng bigla at ako naman nasamid sa iniinom ko! Pano naman kasi, peacefully kami kumakain tapos nanggugulat! "Ha? Bakit?"

Nagsisimula na ako mag-panic kahit naman wala pa siya sinasabi! Para lang kasing tanga! Tinignan niya pa ako, habang nanlakaki ang mata! ayaw pa sabihin! Ano kaya yun? May nakalimutan kaya siya? Extra order?

"May nakalimutan ka ba? Ano ba yun? Punyemas sabihin mo na kasi!" Nauurat ko nang tanong. Pa-suspense pa kasi! Tinitignan pa ako matagal tapos iiwas iwas ng tingin.

"Anong ginawa mo?" Tanong niya, napakunot na ako ng noo. What did i do? Did i do something? That would hurt his feelings or what?

I started getting the feeling of fear.....i looked at him with a serious face.

"Anong ginawa mo bat minahal kita ng todo?" He laughed when he finished that! I automatically launched my attack, pinalo ko siya ng malakas! Pinipigilan niya naman yun habang tawa ng tawa!

"Tangina ka! Akala ko kung ano, kinabahan tuloy ako!" Inis kong sabi, pero yun sa huli, sumuko na siya. "Kinilig ka nga eh!" Tinuro turo niya pa ako!

Tinaasan ko siya ng kilay, he automatically showed his two arms! Diyan siya magaling! "Diyan ka magaling! Mananakit ka tapos susukuan mo agad." Tinignan ko siya, then his expression changed...it turned to be a serious face, then i realized what i just said.

"I-i'm sorry, that was out of line." I held his hand, making him look to it. Then i realized it again, it's the first time that i took a move!

Mabilisan kong tinanggal ulit yun! I was so embarrassed! "Bakit? Uncomfortable ba? Tayo naman ah, okay lang." Inabot niya ulit ang kamay ko, he carressed it and smiled at me. "I thought your mad? Now your smiling!"

"Hindi kaya ako galit....sumeryoso lang eh!" Napakamot pa siya sa ulo niya, i don't want to make things that can make him angry, i want our relationship to last....

We finished eating, we roamed around the mall while teasing each other. Hindi mawalan ng pang asar 'to si Walter! Para rin siyang living meme, pag kasama ko siya, wala akong ginawa kundi tumawa.

After a few hours roaming the mall, inaya ko na siyang umuwi. As usual, hindi mawawala ang paghahatid niya, parang routine na nga namin yun eh.

Hindi ko na siya kailangan tanungin, automatic na. Yung parang nasanay kana sa bagay na yun? Sana nga wag mawala 'to, itong lahat. Kasi sanay na ako, sanay na ako na andyan siya eh.

We reached my condo, he stopped by at my unit and take a rest for awhile. "Yhiene Qezia." He called my name, he's caressing my hair while watching some netflix series. We are on my coach we are siting, i also rested my head into his chest.

"You're always be my 'always' okay? Laging ikaw." Hindi niya inaalis ang mga tingin niya sa tv, but i take a look in him, he's serious.

"Ofcourse, bakit may iba pa ba?" Tumawa ako ng konti, i take that as a joke. I know that no other girls than me, i'm only the girl he truly loves, beside his Mom.

"I trust you okay? I won't leave you." I held his waist, i tightened it's grip. He looked at me and said, "Naniniwala rin naman ako sayo, i would always take a risk with you." He uttered.

"How could i leave you? I'm nothing without you....you saved me....you're always there for me." I suddenly felt the urge to cry, he felt it. Umayos siya ng upo at hinawakan ang mukha ko, "No, don't say that. You're not nothing okay? Worth it ka."

And that's what i want to hear, all the time. That i have a worth, that i'm worth it. May silbi kahit papaano. "Don't ever change your perspective on me okay?

I tell that to him, baka kasi patagal ng patagal, pawala rin ng pawala yung nararamdaman niya.

"You are the reason why i wake up every morning, my dreams at night and new hope for the day." He said, hugging me.

A new hope for the day....a motivation every morning, and a dreams at night. That felt nice, hindi ko 'to naramdaman kahit kanino. I didn't even felt the love from my family, it's just Walter.

Walter...Walter who saved me from all of my shits.

"Lagi kong pinagdadasal, na mapasakin ka. I always tell God that i want you, that i want you as my one true blessing." He assured me, i'm glad that he's like that. He belived in God, that's a major turn on right?

Unti unti nang bumabagsak ang mga luha ko, he quickly wiped it. I was too overwhelmed, i want this feeling not to stop. I want us to stay like this forever.

"I love you." That three words. It's hard to say, halos lahat ng mga tao sinasabi yun....mahirap maniwala. Minsan sinasabi lang nila yun dahil kailangan, dahil inutusan. But i know Walter's feelings is far from that, it's not a bad decision that i fell for him.

"I love you too, always." He tightened his grip into my hands, dahan dahan niyang nilapit ang kanyang mga mukha...our lips met.

It's like nostalgic, it felt like i know this feeling before. Like i taste his lips before this, like i used to this.

We both smiled when the kiss ended, "You're always be my favorite boy." I held his face, i once remembered when i hated him, it's the first line from the first song that he sang again...it's the song from the practice.

He's like my best friend, he's always there for me, listening to my rants. He's my comfort. My home. I love him....so much. I hope the challenges that would come to us, we can conquer it together. No one behind each other. I don't want to think negatively again but....don't know what future looks like right?
