Chapter 16: Fall Short

KASABAY NG PAG-YAKAP nila sa isa't isa ay ang mahinang pag-tunog ng orasan na indikasyon ng pag-babago ng oras. Napa-ngiti siya.

"Happy first month cashew nut." he whispered.

Mas hinigpitan niya ang yakap sa binata. "Happy monthsarry." mahal. Bulong din niya.

She felt his lips on her forehead. He hugged her tight after that.

It's been a month, but your feelings isn't still clear to me. But it's okay, as long as you're with me.

TIME FLIES BY so fast, just like the things happened to them. It was fast. It's exactly one month since they officially had a label.

What a good month. She thought.

Everything was going smoothly. Same routine. Ihahatid ng binata ang anak sa eskwelahan at sabay silang papasok sa trabaho. Susunduin nila ang anak tuwing tanghali at sabay sabay din silang kumakain. Ihahatid muli, at susunduin sa hapon.

Nagawa na din niyang alisin ang hiya sa katawan niya. She's now comfortable around him.

Actually, he's so kind and sweet when it comes to her and Pau. And she likes it.

But after all that happened, he still haven't said the three words. He just said 'I like you'. But those words aren't enough for her.

Gusto lang ba siya nito? Hindi pa iyon ganon kalalim para sa kaniya. Hindi pa iyon sapat. She may sound demanding, but she wants more and deeper than that.

"YOW! YOU'RE IN a good mood today huh?" bungad ng kaibigang pumasok mula sa pinto ng opisina niya.

He smirked. Makalipas ang isang buwan, he became more close to her. And it made him happy.

Araw araw niyang nakakasama ang mag-ina niya. Araw araw niyang nasusubaybayan ang mga ito. Binabawi niya ang mga araw na wala siya sa tabi ng mag-ina niya noon.

He's thankful. Nag-papasalamat siya dahil binigyan muli siya ng pagkakataon ng dalaga na papasukin sa buhay at puso nito.

He won't do the same mistake again.

"You look dumb." his friend said.

"Is being in love, dumb?" he replied.

"Totally." sagot nito. "Parang kailan lang, sinabi mo pa sa akin noon na 'walang love', 'hindi totoo 'yon', 'nasa real world tayo'." ginaya pa nito ang boses niya. "Tss. Ngayon, edi kinain mo yung mga sinabi mo." umiling iling ito.

He chuckled. "People change bro. Malay mo, ikaw na ang sumunod. Gaya nga ng sabi mo, pag pinana ka ni kupido, edi sapul."

Parehas silang natawa.

"Well, I'm done playing games. It's time to get serious." he said before putting a small royal blue box on his table.

Lite gasped. "You can't be serious." he shook his head.

"I am, Lite." he crossed his arms.

"Pero isang buwan palang ang lumilipas dude. Masyado atang mabilis."

He sighed. "I'll take Mom's advice. Time isn't the basis when it comes to love. Others even fall in love at first sight. In my case, it's been more than 365 days."
