4 months had past when they first met each other. Gerald did what Sarah asked him, they did not went out on a date again but he made sure that everyday they do text each other and every night they shared light conversations over the phone. Since the day he met Sarah, Gerald stopped his playing around. He somewhat realized that somehow he need stability in his life, he is now open to the idea of opening himself to love and perhaps a serious relationship with someone is not bad.
Gerald’s POV:
Ring Ring Ring (Landline)
8 PM – In his office
Gerald: Hello may I speak with Sarah please.
Sarah: Hello, Ge si Sars na ito, musta?
Gerald: Hows your day Sars?
Sarah: Eto medyo busy, alam mo naman I am doing my thesis and OJT at the same time diba.
Gerald: Baka naman pinababayaan mo na sarili mo? Eat your meals on time, Sars. Bilin nito sa dalaga.
Sarah: Opo Daddy, pati ba naman sa phone eh palagi mo na nga ako tinetxt eh halos oras oras mo na nga ako tinetext. Hindi kaya masisante ka niyan?
Gerald: Hindi noh. Gusto ko kasi updated ako at assured ako na your ok.
Sarah: Di ba Gerald we are friends? Naaapreciate ko talaga yung efforts mo pero hindi ba masayado ka na nagiinvest ng time sa akin.
Gerald: Sars, sinunod ko yung sinabi mo na gusto mo ganito muna tayo. Sinabihan mo na nga ako na huwag muna tayo lumabas ulit at magkita pati ba naman sa text and tawag ko nagaalangan ka pa eh paano tayo magkakakilala niyan.
Sarah: Hindi naman sa ganun kaya lang baka….. bitin na sabi nit okay Gerald. Dahil hindi niya alam sasabihin kay Gerald iniba niya ang usapan. Ikaw kamusta ka, how was your day in work?
Gerald: Ummmm ok lang same old same old. I miss you Sars, I want to see you again.
Sarah: Ayan naman oh, akala ko ba naiintindihan mo ako.
Gerald: Yes, but it does not mean na hindi kita puwede ma miss and alam mo naman how I want to see you again.
Sarah: Gerald, you know how strict my Mom is diba?
Gerald: Your 22 years old Sars, learn to fight for what you want. Huwag yung puro oo na lang sa parents mo.
Sarah: I don’t know alam mo naman diba yes I had a boyfriend before and God knows how much I loved him pero pumayag sila na maging boyfriend ko kasi kilala nila yung parents ng ex ko. Eh ikaw alam ko hindi ka naniniwala sa ligaw ligaw na gusto ng parents ko.
Gerald: I am willing to do that if yun ang gusto nila. Gagawin ko, just ask me to and I will.
Sarah: Ge, sa tingin ko mahihirapan tayo my mom is very doubtful lalo na pag nalaman niya na your working na and you know my parents they will make sure to know your background.
Gerald: I will show them that I am a changed man, wala naman masama Sars na subukan diba?
Sarah: Ge, hindi ba masyadong mabilis ligaw na agad diba sabi ko friends lang tayo.
Gerald: Sarah bakit ang laki ng takot mo? Did your ex hurt you that much para maging ganyan ka katakot?
Sarah: Alam mo yung feeling na Mahal na Mahal mo yung tao at Mahal ka rin niya pero alam mo sa sarili mo na hindi niya kaya pantayan yung lalim ng love mo sa kanya. Ganoon ako sa ex ko. Nakakita siya ng mas mamahalin niya kaya ayun we broke up. Ang sakit diba? And dahil napaka naïve ko continouos pa ang communication naming and we are good friends. Kinikuwento niya lahat sa akin pag magkaaway sila ng new girlfiend niya ako una niyang tinatawagan. Ako naman mega advice kahit minsan tinatanong ko sarili ko kung mabait lang ba ako o tanga?
