Lumipas ang ilang minuto ay naghari na naman ang katahimikan samin. Di ko alam ang gagawin ko. Ni hindi ko alam ang sasabihin.

Mayroon ba dapat akong sabihin?

aba malay ko! Taina!

Tsaka, Ano 'to? anong trip ng Impaktong 'to at parang sabog pa sa naka marijuana? Epecto ba 'to ng paglalakad niya ng mahaba?

Hala! Siguro di siya sanay dahil di kotse ang isang 'to eh!

Babarahin ko na sana siya ng unahan niya ako.

"Hoy! ano? buhay ka pa ba jan? baka naman nahimatay ka na sa kilig jan ah." I heared him chuckled. " 'Wag naman muna sana, di pa nga nagiging tayo eh." aniya. I pinched his neck.

"Tumigil ka nga! 'Wag mo 'kong biruin ng ganyan ha! Di nakakatuwa! " I hissed. Tumigil siya sa pagtawa at binaba ako sa ilalim ng puno. Hinarap niya ako sa kanyang seryosong mukha.

Napalunok ako ng inilapit niya ang mukha niya sakin. Parang may kung anong nagbara sa lalamunan ko.

His intense gaze made the stupid butterflies in my stomach wild! The way his eyes looked straight at me made my heart melt. asdfgghjl!!

Tumingin ako sa malayo. Avoiding having an eye contact. Pero ang Impakto! Pilit na hinahanap ng mata niya ang mata ko.

Nang di na ako nakapagtiis ay sasapakin ko na naman sana siya pero mabilis niyang nakuha ang kamay ko bago pa dumapo sa likod ng kaniyang leeg.

He held my hands, still giving me that intense and serious look.

Dinala niya ang kamay ko sa tapat ng dibdib niya. Pilit ko itong binabawi dahil para na akong nababaliw sa nararamdaman ko. Shucks lang!! ano baaaaaaa!!

Pero dahil malakas siya ay parang nasayang lang ang effort ko sa pagbawi dahil wala ring nangyari.

"Feel that?" aniya na nagpakunot sa noo ko. Mas diniin niya pa ang kamay ko sa dibdib niya at dun ko napagtanto ang sinasabi niya. Sa lakas ng kalabog ng puso niya ay parang nakakasabay na nito ang puso ko.

Hanudaaaw?

" Can you feel it?" he again, asked. I unconsciously nodded which madhim smile from ear to ear.

"I'm not good with words. I.. I- I'm.." He blink for three times and breath sharply before he continued.

"I'm not good with words, okey? I'm not good at saying what I really and truely feel at someone, literally. So please... please.." again, he inhaled before he continued.

"Please be considerate." I raised my brows at him. What does he mean by that?

"I.. I--I.. Oh shit! I don't even know what to say! shit!" he murmured, frustratingly. Despite how awkward our situation are and how confused I am, the way he act as if he was so frustrated because he does'nt know the right words to say and chuchu else, still, It made my eyes roll at himl.

Seriously?! Can't he just say it straight to the point?

"Just cut the crap and tell me what you want to say!?" I hissed at him.

He glared at me,

"Okey! I like you, okey?! No! I think I'm falling in love with you!" He stated and made my world stop.

Silence.

Silence.

Silence.

"Well? Say something! Damn it!" he roared. he held both my shoulders and lightly shook it as if trying to wake me up into my senses.

" What do you want me to say?" out of words, I softly asked. He stared at me,

"Just tell me you like me too. Then, I'll be more willing to be your Knight and shining Boyfriend." he winked.

"Boyfriend agad?! Hoy! Di ka pa nga nanliligaw!" ani ko. Sa sinabi ko ay parang may nag light bulb bigla sa utak ni Kris. Na para bang may nasabi ako na dahilan kaya napalitan ang frustrated na ekspresyon niya ng isang malaking ngiti.

"So? kung manliligaw ba ako, sasagutin mo ako? Does that mean, you like me too? Well, off course you like me! No girls had never admire me." ngising asong wika niya. Jusko! Ano ba 'tong lumalabas sa bibig ko. Pahamak eh.

Sinapak ko siya tsaka tinulak. Naglakad ako palayo sa kaniya. Nang medyo nagkakadistansya na kami ay tsaka lang ako nagsalita.

"Let's see, Mr. Elizalde. Just give me your best shot" wika ko. Maya maya ay naramdaman ko nalang na may umakbay sakin at isang mainit na hininga sa tenga ko ng lalaking dahilan ng naghuhurumentado kong puso.

"So it's official then.."

"I'm officially courting you, Sierra." he said with those husky voice. It was'nt a question anymore. It's more like of a statement.

"And I'll damn make sure you'll fall-- no-, you will drown. You'll be drown enough to me, you'll never want any other guy,you'll never want to leave my side, you'll be that crazy and madly smitten girl who only want me. Only me.."I felt him smiled before he kissed the side of my head.
