In love
"Why are we here? What's your trip? Why did you take me here?" tanong ko nung kami nalang na dalawa.
"We're are at Bataan. Come, I will tour you inside." he said.
"You're now a tour guide, huh? Earlier you're a Director." I teased.
He just laugh at what I said.
Nagulat nalang ako ng bigla niyang hinawakan yung kamay ko at pinagsakop iyon papasok sa loob. Nagbaba pa ako ng tingin doon pero hinayaan ko nalang kahit na may kaunting ilang.
Hanggang sa makarating kami sa loob. Halos mapanganga ako sa ganda. Dahil hindi mo a-akala-in na nasa pilipinas ka pa pala dahil sa mga heritage house na nakatayo dito.
Madami rin na poste na old fashion ang disenyo na lalong nag paganda at nag paliwanag sa paligid dahil bawat parte na madadaanan mo may ilaw at pati mga lumang bahay.
I guess these designs are Spanish inspired in the structure of the floor and in every detail of the other mini bridges that we passed to cross beautifully and under them there is always water and while walking he tells me that this water is connected to water of the ocean just a meters away.
Natigil lang kami sa paglalakad nung mapansin kong nasa isang maliit kaming bridge kahit na may nadadaanan na kami kanina pero iba pa pala ito. Napatingin ako sa baba may malinis na tubig doon na lalong nagpakalma sa akin.
Even the details of the brigade are reddish orange in color that further embellished and became a heritage throughout the area. Parang lahat ng bawat madadaanan mo like meters away may mga poste nakatayo para siguro lumiwanag ang buong lugar.
Kaya kahit na madalim ang paligid makikita mo pa din ang ganda niyon at napaka-classic ng lugar.
"Wow... Are we still in the philippines? Or were now in Spain?"
He suddenly chuckled.
"No, we're still. Were just here in Bataan. Do you like what you see?" he looked at me.
"Yeah, it's beautiful and historical. Love it." I smiled.
Natigilan ako nung mapagtanto na magkahawak pa pala yung kamay namin. Kaya nagbaba ako doon ng tingin at pa-simple kong binawi ang kamay ko. Dahilan ng pagtingin niya sa akin pero napansin kong tumaas lang ang kilay niya sa ginawa ko.
Humarap nalang ako sa tubig sa baba mga nagkikintaban iyon dahil siguro sa sinag ng ilaw sinamahan pa ng mga bituin sa langit at bilog na bilog na puting buwan.
"I'm taking you here because I want us to be alone, and it's been a few weeks since we last saw each other. I miss you..."
My chest suddenly throbbed from what I heard. And I don't want what to react in front of him, but I need to stop myself to react strangely! So, I need to be flirticious again.
Bakit napaka-straight forward niya?!
"Really?" I smiled. "Well, we feel the same, I miss you too. And I like it here, it's simple but beautiful because of the heritage houses here. I feel like I'm in Spain because of this." I looked at him.
I froze when our eyes met.
"It's good that you like it... I have something--"
"By the way, how old are you?" putol ko sa kanya. "Sorry to cut you off." agad kong saad ng ma-antala na may sasabihin pala siya.
"Why did you need to know?" he was still looking at me so I looked back at the water down there while he was still laid his back on the little bridge with his crossed-arms.
