His One-Sided Love (COMPLETED)

10. Unexpected Proposal

Nagising ako and sakto lang dahil gising na din sya. She looks fresh despite being a total drunk last night.

"I mean, sorry for last night. Sorry if I had to answer that."

"No worries." No worries... That's the only thing I answered. Lumabas na ako ng kwarto niya and dumiretso sa room ko. Wala pa din si Jude, saan kaya sila pumunta kagabi.

I packed my things at dumiretso sa CR. I rested my back at the tub, thinking about the things that happened during the spin the bottle game.

Nasaktan ako doon, nakita ng mga kaibigan ko how frustrated and upset I was. But despite my pain, mas iisipin ko na lang ang nararamdaman niya. Ilang beses man ako masaktan, it will be worth it in the end once she learns to love me.. And I hope, wish and pray for that day to happen.

Pati sa bath tub, nagpaka-emo ako. Never experienced this in my entire life, ngayon lang. But I have to be strong to handle this.

Goodbye Bangkok,  you brought me a lot of memories to cherish...... happiness of bonding with Atasha, sadness when she had to be honest....

And now we're going back to the Philippines, going back to the real world...but let me continue loving you.

**********************

It's so nice to be back. After the Bangkok trip, ang puntod agad ni Art ang pinuntahan ko. Madami akong kinwento sa kanya during that trip. May masaya at syempre may awkward din.. 

Back to the real world dahil duty na ulit ako sa hospital.... I'll be seeing my cutee patootie patients... But for the meantime, chitchats muna with Jill. Ilang araw din akong nawala and namiss ko makipagkwentuhan sa kanya.

"Doc Atasha, may naghahanap po sayo.. Mr. Jiro Dela Mereced daw."

"Okay, lalabas na lang ako. We'll talk in the lobby na lang."

Ang bilis naman dumalaw ni Jiro. Parang isang linggo pa lang simula nung nakauwi kami ha. May kailangan kaya sya?

"Hi Jiro. Sorry dito na lang tayo sa lobby nakapagkita... Lalabas na rin kasi muna ako eh. My patients will arrive afternoon pa eh."

 

"Tara let's have some coffee. Dun sa tapat lang oh."

Pumayag na rin ako sa gusto ni Jiro na magkape kami. Masaya naman syang kausap and to be  honest, I miss his company.. Mukha kasing na-offend ko sya nung huling araw namin noon sa Bangkok kaya naging mailap sya ng kaunti.. He may deny it but his action proved it.

"Atasha, I have thought of it since we got back... I know this is awkward but please let me continue loving you... I cannot stand not seeing you... Ang hirap mag-pretend na hindi kita namimiss.. I always wonder how and what you do."

------------------> THE FACES.  AT THE COFFEESHOP

"Jiro please...." What is he trying to say? No please... enoughhhh.... I cannot hurt you again...

"Please... alam ko mahirap... Pero walang mangyayari kung hindi mo susubukan... Kung hindi natin susubukan. We get along well and okay tayo.. We can give it a shot if you only let us try."

"Ang hirap ng hinihiling mo Jiro..."

"It's not hard.. Let's just see how we get along.. walang commitment. Let's date and enjoy being together. Then if the time comes you realize na hindi mo pa rin ako gusto, then that's the time I'll give you up. Hindi ko na ipipilit. Pero please let's not live with what ifs in mind. We'll never know unless we try."

 

*silence*

*silence*

"Please think about it.. hindi ko hihilinging ngayon ka sumagot. I'll wait. Alam mo kung saan ako pwedeng puntahan. Or call me at ako ang pupunta sayo. I'll wait for your answer Atasha."
