It's Saturday in the evening--Christmas night, noche buena. And here I am, thinking about something while watching the stars when someone sapok sapok me. Kumulo agad ang dugo ko. I'm ready to punch who did that when I realized that it's Michael, kaibigan ni kuya.

"Seriously? Why would you sapok sapok me?"  then he chuckled and again, my heart is pounding so fast just hearing him chuckle

"Ano, conyo kananaman?" pang aasar niya

"I'm the one who asked you first, duh" I rolled my eyes on him and once again, he chuckled like he's surrendering

"Ano ba ginagawa mo rito ha babae ka? Malamig dito. The foods are ready, tara na" pagyayaya niya

"Fine. Whatever"

like i have a choice?

HE'S HIM! MICHEAL VALDERAMA!

Yes, I am inlove with him since the day he kissed me, I know it's just an accident that time pero doon nagsimula. I don't know why pero, everytime he is around, my heart was beating so fast like I run a hundred miles. And the worst thing is, he can't love me the way I wanted to be loved by him.

"Excuse me Ms. Olivia Sanchez!" and that made me back to my sense from watching him with Hershey, near the hall

"Uh, yes ma'am?" I smiled, fake

"I am calling you now for 10th time! Why are you zoning out?!" pasigaw na aniya "Pagbibigyan kita ngayon Miss Sanchez, I will not tolerate it the next time. Class Dismissed!"

I didn't notice that I'm zoning out the whole class, I feel sorry.

Habang naglalakad palabas ng hall, nakita ko ulit sila--Michael and Hershey laughing at each other like there's no tomorrow.

"Oh, Liv nandiyan ka pala!"

Obviously, duh.

"Here, you can join with us!" Hershey said while smiling sweetly at me

"Uh, thanks, but no. I have things to do at home pa e. Enjoy nalang!"

I smiled at them as I saw hershey looking at Michael with a passionate love in her eyes

I'm sure she's in love with him like I do. I can see it through her eyes

Habang paalis ako, nakita ko nanaman silang 'happy' laughing at nonsense thingy. Well, bahala sila

But...

How I wish, I was her. Hershey...

Kasama ko si Michael sa park while eating ice cream. Kasi yung bwisit na kuya ko, utos ng utos! And fortunately Michael volunteered na sasamahan daw niya'ko para hindi ako alone. But well, thanks to kuya I'm with michael the whole day. Inabot na nga kami ng gabi at gosh, ang lamig na. I'm just wearing my plain t-shirt and a leggings. Hindi naman date 'to so I didn't effort to wear my dresses at hindi ko alam na gagabihin kami.

"Mike, you have a dirt in your face" I said as I try to wipe it in my own hands. Hindi naman niya'ko pinigilan so, tinuloy ko nalang

"Thanks Liv, saan tayo niyan? since nabili na natin yung pinapabili ng kuya mong tamad" pagrarant niya about kuya's utuserong attitude while

"I don't know, siguro uwi na tayo at may gagawin din naman ako"

Ugh, nilalamig na talaga ako! I forgot to bring my jacket!

Habang pauwi kami nakita namin si Hershey na parang naligo sa ulan kung saan. Omg, she's soaking wet and I don't have a sweater para ibigay sa kanya

"Michael, look at her---"

Naputol ang sanang sasabihin ko nang makitang wala na pala sa tabi ko si Michael at ibinalot na kay Hershey ang sweater na suot niya pala kanina

Ay wow he's so advance mag-isip naman. 'Di ako informed.

But somehow, I feel useless dahil she's soaking wet at baka malamigan siya if Michael wasn't around.

"Olivia, hi!" she still managed to smile sweetly

"I'm sorry at naabala ko pa yata kayo sa date ninyo" paghingi niya ng paumanhin

"No, it's okay"

"No, it's okay"

Sabay pa kami huh

"Liv, sabay na natin si Hershey pauwi, baka magkalamig ito...." sabay kamot sa batok

"Sure"

I smiled fakely. When I saw how he put his hands on her shoulder while...

I am cold too.

After that night, I try to avoid him na and tried to forget my feelings for him pero palagi siyang pumupunta sa bahay as in palagi, and worse, ako daw ang pakay niya ayon kina manang.

Until one day, he stopped. Siguro napagod.

Then sa FEU naman kapag nagkakasalubong kami, lalagpasan niya lang ako like hindi niya'ko kilala and then palagi silang magkasama ni Kuya, together with...

Hershey.

How I wish I was her....

It's been five years and I am now flight attendant, I am grateful na this is my dream job mula pa noon and now, I'm flying too with my dream Airline.

Madaming nangyari sa loob ng limang taon na ang iba pa ay nakakabiglang talaga na halos hindi ko paniwalaan noon.

Muntik na akong bumagsak noon during my last year in college, I confessed my feeling to Michael after graduating, and Kuya and... And Hershey. I didn't know that they have a 'thingy'.

That time, when Michael and Hershey's laughing at each other near the hall when I caught hershey, looking at Michael, No! It is my brother pala na tinitignan niya that time, with love in her eyes. I REALLY THOUGHT IT WAS MICHAEL. I was really wrong at that time and now... They are happily married with a pretty daughter like her mom--Hershey.

While Micheal and I, we're married too. Months after I confessed my feelings for him, pinagkita ulit kami. After one year of me, being with him most of the days, we became together. Then our relationship became stronger. Until now.

"Happy 2nd year Anniversarry my lovely wife. I love you so much! Thank you for accepting yourself finally. And thank you for marrying me" his voice is husky and full of sweetness

"Happy Anniversarry my husband. I love you too" Sabay halik ko sa kanya

Masaya na ako na tanggap ko na ang sarili ko sa kung ano ako. Kung sino ako. I realized that...

Before you love a person, Love yourself first. Tanggapin mo muna yung sarili mo, for the people, to know what you really are and how wonderful you are. I learned years ago, that you can shine on your own, your time will come. But, while waiting...

Learn to trust the process too.

And that's how Michael and I ended.

Nothing changed except that he's my husband, and I am now Mrs. Valderama.

I am Olivia Sanchez-Valderama. Contented and Happily married to Michael Valderama.

End? Nah ((:
