I'm In Love With A Man Who Doesn't Exist (On-Going)

Chapter 9

"Congrats.. and Happy Valentines Mi Amore.. Ti amo."

"I uhh.." hindi ko alam kung sasabihin ko na rin ba kung ano 'yung gusto ko na sabihin sa kaniya.

"It's okay, hindi mo kailangan na sagutin agad."  He replied with such a genuine smile.

With that everything went black.

"Ella apo gising na. Diyos ko nananaginip ka na naman ba?" Naramdaman ko na yinuyugyug ni daddy ang mga paa ko. Suddenly I felt my body forcing me to stand up, and I did.

"Aba'y kanina pa nasa labas iyung si Hanz nasa hapag na nga eh."

"Po?" Ang aga n'ya namang nagising. I looked at the window it's still raining but not as heavy as last night.

"Eh sagutin mo iyung tanong ko, nananaginip ka na naman ba?" 

"Hindi po.." I don't want to lie, lalo na kay daddy. but I don't want him to worry.

"Oh sige ayusin mo na 'yang higaan mo at bumaba ka na."

"Opo." Kagaya nang sabi ni daddy, I fixed my bed before going down.

As I walk towards the kitchen I can hear them talking.

"Pababa na rin 'yon, Kumain ka na kung ika'y nagugutum na alam mo naman 'yon.."

"Hahaha sige lang po, hihintayin ko na lang s'ya sabi niyo naman po eh pababa na."

"Ay grabe iyung batang iyon! napakatakaw sa tulog!" Ang aga-aga ayan na naman si Mama Sen eh..

"Eh hayaan mo na at mamaya sasabihan ko na maglinis." Nag lilinis naman ako ah.. 

"Good morning." Pagbati ko.

"Good Morning." Hanz even stand up with a smile. I just smiled back and sat at the chair beside daddy.

We stayed silent as we ate. Ganito naman kami kadalasan, Si Mama Sen lang talaga 'yung talak nang talak. Nagkusa na rin ako na maghugas ng mga pinagkainan para masamahan ko si Hanz mamaya.

Sinilip ko kung ano na ba ang timpla ng panahon, mukhang mas kumalma naman ito kesa kanina.

Balak kong katukin si Hanz sa guest room kung anong oras ba niya balak umalis. But as I walk at the stairs I saw him sitting in front of the guest room. Tulala s'ya siguro iniisip niya na naman kung ano bang mangyayari kapag umalis na siya.

"Hey, bakit nasa labas ka?" I asked sitting beside him, leaning at the door.

"You think I'll be fine?"

"Syempre naman.. you've always wanted to do that right?"

"Yeah, but I never wanted to leave."

Simula bata pa lang kami komportable na kami sa isa't-isa, we support each other. Noon pa man sinasabi niya na, na gusto n'yang magaral sa Yale. It's a private research university and a member of the prestigious Ivy League, a group of America's most celebrated higher education institutions. 

Yes. There's Harvard, Stanford, Pennsylvania. But he really wants to go to Yale, well he also considered Brown University but still Yale. Alam niya kasi na kapag sa Harvard siya magaaral mapre-pressure lang siya, everyone is competitive and insanely genius at that University.

Matalino naman siya, I'm well aware that he can possibly study at that Prestigious University, he can pay His expenses while studying at that University.

"You'll be good."

"Thanks.. Bakit ba kasi ayaw mong sumama? You can also afford it, and you also kinda have a brain"
