A long habit of not thinking a thing wrong gives it a superficial appearance of being right. Thomas Paine

"Aily," nakita ko syang lumunok. "Are we going to stay here? Do you want to go outside?"
"Hmmm," pikit ko, yakap ang unan nya. "Let's stay here. Ang sarap dito sa kama mo."
Napaupo sya sa kama nya na nakatalikod sa akin. "Naku, baka mamaya masanay akong nandyan ka, hindi pa naman mangyayari yun." Sabi nya.
Bumuntung hininga sya. Marami.
"Scoot," tumabi sya sakin. Binigyan ko sya ng space para magkatabi kami. Nakahiga na kami pareho nakaharap sa picture ko sa ceiling. "Blue top, white shorts."
"Huh?" Tingin ko sa kanya.
"That was what you had on when you were wearing that smile," sabi nya at inginuso ang picture. His lips crumpled. I know those are soft.
"Ang tindi ng memorya mo ‘no," pansin ko.
He shrugged his shoulders. "Aily, let's turn off the lights."
Oh my! Is this it? Are we doing it?
He turned off the lights. Madilim.
Tumabi sya ulit sa akin.
Pinakiramdaman ko sya. Di naman sya gumagalaw.
Nanahimik lang kami at kinabahan. Ramdam mo ang tensyon. Wala akong makita. Madilim talaga.
He cleared his throat. May sasabihin ata sya.
Lying here with you, listenin' to the rain
Shete! Kumanta!
Smiling just to see the smile upon your face.
I forgot how good he is at singing. Lagi syang nagso-solo pag need ng magsosolo at kumakanta kami in the background nung choir days namin nung high school. Sya yung solo parts lagi at kami yung mga chuwariwap nya. Yung boses nya kasi pwedeng bass at pwede ring tenor.
These are the moments I thank God that I'm alive.
Naramdaman kong hinawakan nya ang kaliwang kamay ko.
These are the moments I'll remember all my life.
Hinigpitan nya ang hawak nya sa kamay ko.
I found all I've waited for and I could not ask for more.
Looking in your eyes, seeing all I need. Everything you are is everything to me.
