Deine Sierra PoV

It's new year, and it's Kerby's birthday. I bought him a gift yesterday tho' I don't know what he wants that's why bumili ako ng random stuff. T-shirt, hoodie, and shoes. I also wrote a letter for him.

We're now heading to the rooftop to watch the fireworks, Kerby is also there that's why dinala kona 'yung gifts ko. Dad asked me about this gift. I just told him that I will give this to a friend na nandito rin.

Gladly, he didn't asked more, baka ano pang masabi ko kung mag tanong pa siya.

It's 11:56 in the evening, they are having a countdown. Maraming tao 'yung nandito ngayon sa rooftop.

I texted Kerby na nandito na'ko sa rooftop, hindi ko siya mahanap dahil madaming tao 'yung nag aabang din sa fireworks.

"10!"

"9!"

All the people are counting the remaining seconds for the new year.

"8!"

"7!"

"6!"

Mom and Dad moved forward para mas makita nila 'yung view, I didn't follow them.

"5!"

"4!"

"3!"

Where's Kerby?

"2!"

"1!"

"Happy new year, Desi!!"

"Pusang gala ka!" I hissed while holding my chest, nagulat ako. Bigla siyang sumulpot sa likod ko.

"Wow, imbis na happy new year sabihin mo, pusang gala pa" Kerby muttered.

"Happy birthday" I greeted him, and handed the gift. "It's just a simple gift but I hope you will like it." I smiled sweetly and hugged him. He was shocked but he still hugged me back.

"Thank you so much, Desi." He thanked me. I can feel his sincerity.

We're at the center of the rooftop, watching the fireworks together. I'm beside him, pareho kaming nakatingala habang nanonood.

I can see him from my peripheral vision, smiling widely. Dahan dahan ko siyang liningon while he's still watching the fireworks.

My eyes widened when he looked at me. I suddenly felt butterflies in my stomach. Biglang nawala ang lahat ng tao and all I can see is him. My heart is pounding because of him.

I don't know what to do, basta natulala nalang ako sakanya. He smiled at me that made my heart flutter more. 

I suddenly felt contented and grateful while starring at him. Is it possible to see the whole universe in one person?

"Kerby come here," I ordered and hold his shoulder to lower him, nakatingkad na'ko because he's tall.

"W-What? Why--?"

He stopped talking when I kissed his forehead. "Just wait until I become successful, I will marry you." I whispered the last words.

"I will, Desi. I will." He answered that made my heart melt.

"Mom are you okay?" I asked Mom while we are eating, she looks nervous and pinagpapawisan siya. We're now here at our suite.
