(SPG Alert!)

I need a lot of explanations about this.

Samu't saring mga tanong ang nagkukumpulan sa aking isipan.

Bakit niya ako inaaya makipag-'date'?

Seryoso ba siya?

Bakit ako?

May gusto ba talaga siya sa'kin?

Joke time ba 'to?

Asyumero man ako kung tatawagin, pero sige nga, what would be your conclusion if a man just asked you to go out with you for a date?

Of course, it means that he likes you! No doubts.

But I'm having doubts right now.

I can't see myself as someone who could level Sir London... or Don in any way, so it is impossible that he likes me. Totally impossible. This trope only exists in fiction. I'm so confused.

"Bakit, Don?" I asked stupidly.

"I know, its sudden. But I can't just stand, not telling you about this."

Napaiwas ako ng tingin. I can see the sincerity in his eyes. Is he for real?

"I never admired anyone like this before, Sef... There's a lot of things about you that attracts me... Your determination. Your denseness. Your ability to connect with people. And more. Things that can't get off my mind. And one day, I realized that I'm already into you. Its hard to believe but I already have this feelings and I can't deny it."

Feels like we're puzzle pieces that don't even fit.

But come to think of it, Aidan and I were also the complete opposite of each other. There's no need to state each of our quality. We were from complete different places and different lifestyle, but suddenly, our worlds collided and made a severe connection. Like magnets. Positive and negative attracts.

"Uhm... Did I stun you?" tanong niya gamit ang mahinang boses.

I said no response.

"Naiintindihan ko kung hindi ka makapagsalita. I assume you are thinking at this very moment about how you can reject me without hurting my feelings, am I right?"

He smiled sadly. Guilt just struck through me. Mabilis akong umiling.

"Hindi naman sa gano'n, Don. Nabigla lang ako," I said. Gusto kong sabunutan ang sarili ko dahil yun lang ang tangi kong nasabi.

Someone confessed to me and all I can say is that I'm shocked. Its not my first time, since Aidan did this before, so why can't I say anything?

My relationship with Aidan is a secret. Both of us agreed that no one else should tell anyone about it, even to my closest friends. If a single detail just slip to anyone else, maaari kaming mabuking.

I can't give him a chance since I'm already tied with someone, and I can't tell that reason. It's a secret!

This is too much for me! Why am I so blessed in just a sudden time? Its crazy!

Now, how can a potato like me reject this overly beautiful man?! Bet he has everything what it takes to be a perfect boyfriend. Parang nahiya naman ako sa sarili ko.

Kung isa akong mangingisda, para akong nakabingwit ng malaking tuna gamit ang tingting at sinulid.

This man deserves somebody more than me. But as a lesser mortal, rejecting him would hurt my feelings too, because I faced so many rejections in life and I know how it feels.
