Days Have past. I celebrate Christmas alone just talking to Tyler, hindi natuloy ang balak naming magkasama dahil sinama sya ng parents nya sa ibang bansa so sa cellphone lang kami nagkausap.
New year also have past. Boring as Christmas, mas boring lang to dahil i have no time on talking to Tyler, hindi sya nakapag text dahil nasa ibang bansa pa rin sila.
February 14 ngayon, inaya ako ni Tyler mag date sa isang fancy restaurant, because of excitement naagahan pa akong pumunta! Ang tagal ko tuloy nag hintay sakanya pero nung nakita ko sya napangiti ako.
"Happy Valentine's day love!" I greeted him and kissed his cheeks.
"Happy Valentine's," he said at iniabot saakin yung isang kumpol ng puting rosas. "I don't know what type of flowers you want so i just gave you white roses, which means loyalty." He chuckled, napaiwas pa ako ng tingin dahil naramdaman ko ang pag-init ng pisngi ko.
He really do know how to teased me! Onting pick up lines nya lang tiklop ako!
May order na ako kaya ang ginawa na lang namin ay kumain.
"Malapit na yung finals," he started the conversation.
"Yeah, but I'm more worried on how my parents would react kapag nalaman nila na may boyfriend ako." Ngumuso ako at ibinaba ang fork na hawak ko.
"Don't worry, I'm sure they'll understand." He said, napatango naman ako.
"Yeah, hindi ko lang maiwasang kabahan." I sighed.
"Speaking of that, my parents want to meet you." Agad kong nabitawan ng tuluyan yung tinidor na hawak ko, what the hell?
"What!? K-kailan?" I asked him, nanginginig na ako.
"Mamayang gabi," mas lalobakong kinabahan dahil sa sinabi nya.
"A-are they nice?" I asked.
"Yeah they are," he chuckled seeing my reaction.
Namayani nanaman ang katahimikan after that. I just realized about saying i love you to him, his my first boyfriend. Hanggang flings lang ako noon at hindi tumatanggap ng official na feelings.
"Jan," i started the conversation this time.
"Hmm?" He answered habang ngumunguya ng spaghetti.
"I love you," nakita ko ang pagubo nya kaya nag panic ako at inabutan sya ng tubig! "Hey careful!" I hissed.
"W-what did you say?" He asked habang umuubo ubo pa rin.
"Huh? I said careful?" I asked, teasing him.
"No not that! The three words after that!" He shouted, mabuti na lang at medyo malayo kami sa tao dahil nasa pinaka gilid kami ng restaurant.
"Oh? That one," i shrugged. "I love you?" I repeated, dahil umiinom sya ay nasamid naman sya ngayon.
"Putcha Yuna! Wag mo'ko biglain, baka hindi ko mapigilan itanan kita!" He hissed, i didn't to anything but to laugh at his reaction. It's freaking priceless!
"What? Don't you want to hear it? I thought you would love to." I pouted at napasalumbaba while stirring the spaghetti on my fork.
"Yuna naman," he hold my hand but I rolled my eyes.
"Mahal din kita," doon ako natauhan sa sinabi nya, agad akong tumingin sakanya ng masama.
"Repeat it, wala akong narinig." I said naka ayos na din ako.
"Huh? Hindi ka ba naglilinis ng tenga mo? Don't worry bibilhan kita ng maraming cotton buds." Sumama lalo ang tingin ko sakanya. Sometimes i wanted to asked myself na bakit ako pumatol sa kanya? He's annoying yet rommantic!
"Ayoko na!" I said, medyo na slang pa.
"Ayoko na," he mocked me, lalo tuloy akong nainis. Padabog kong kinuha yung bag ko at tumayo.
"Hey!" Agad nya akong hinila ulit napahawak pa yung kamay ko sa dibdib nya.
"Mahal na mahal kita," i was about to talk when he tilted my head and kissed my lips softly, it was not that long dahil nasa public kami. When he let go of me, napalingon ako sa paligid. Good thing that people's are busy minding their own business!
He held my hand again at ipinaupo ulit ako sa tapat nya.
"Sus, pakipot pa sa halik ko din naman pala titiklop." Sinamaan ko ulit sya ng tingin, namumuro na sya!
"H-hey love I'm sorry hindi na mauulit promise."
Kinagabihan kinakabahan akong nakaupo sa passenger seat ng kotse ni Jan, mahigpit ang kapit ko sa dress na suot ko. Kinakabahan talaga ako! Ngayon ko ba naman mameet ang mga magulang nya eh!
"Yuna? Lalabas ka ba dyan?" Natauhan ako at lumingon kay Jan na nakalahad ang kamay, napailing ako at ngumiti bago tinanggap ang kamay nya.
"Kinakabahan ako," i said but he just chuckled.
Mahigpit ang hawak ng kamay nya saakin habang tinatahak namin ang daan papunta sa bahay nila.
"Relax nandito ako," he whispered that somehow makes me calm.
Lalong bumilis ang tibok ng puso ko ng pumasok kami sa loob. Malinis at maayos ang bahay nila, agad akong hinila ni Jan papunta sa kusina, mas dumoble ang kaba ko ng makita ang parents nya na nag-uusap pero sabay silang napalinhon saamin.
"Oh son, nandito na pala kayo." Lumapit ang mommy ni Tyler saamin and Jan kissed her cheeks.
"G-good evening po," kinakabahang turan ko, bumaling naman saakin ang tingin nito.
"Good evening, are you shy? Oh don't be, come have a seat with us." Biglang nakampante ako dahil sa pakikitungo saakin nito, she's not that strict.
Gaya ng sabi sinunod namin ang sinabi nito kaya umupo kami ni Jan magkatabi din kaming dalawa.
"I've never thought na magseseryo yang anak ko." His dad stated kaya napalingon ako.
"Dad naman," napakamot ng ulo si Tyler.
"What's your name hija?" His dad asked me again.
"Yuna po, Yuna Valdez." I said formally.
"Wow you're Dylan's sister?" Hindi na ako nagulat ng makilala nila si kuya, he's so extrovert at madaming nagiging kaibigan.
"Yes po," i answered nagsimula na din kaming kumain.
Nabawasan ang kaba ko dahil feeling ko naman ay tanggap nila ako para kay Tyler.
"Well do you both have plans after your graduation?" Tanong naman ng mama ni Tyler.
Napaisip din ako wala pa akong plano, hindi din ako tatanggapin ni dad sa kumpanya nya dahil architecture ang kinuha ko.
Si Tyler naman ang sumagot sa tanong ng mama nya. "Wala pa ma, pero kung may pagkakataon aayain ko sya ng kasal."
