Day 98.3

(Phone conversation)

10:15 AM

Miles:
Hello?

Liam:
Hello, Miles. Good morning.

Miles:
Yeah. Uhm, good morning. I did not mean to call but--

Liam:
Bakit not meant? 

Miles:
Because nanliligaw pa lang ako? 

Liam:
(Chuckles) Ah. Sige. 

Miles:
Uhm, I did not mean to call but ang tagal mag-reply ng flower shop. They delivered the flowers to you, right?

Liam:
Oo. Pati 'yong box of chocolates. 

Miles:
(Sighs) Oh, good! 

(Silence)

Miles:
Should I... uh, hang up? 

Liam:
(Chuckles) Bakit uli? Dahil nanliligaw ka pa lang? 

Miles:
Uh... oo? 

Liam:
(Chuckles) Gano'n ba 'pag nanliligaw pa lang?

Miles:
Ayaw ng makulit ng mga nililigawan, right? 

Liam:
(Chuckles) Ah...

Miles:
Oh. But, uh, I saw in my call history that I, uh, called you last night?

Liam:
(Clears throat) O? Anong oras?

Miles:
I think... madaling-araw?

Liam:
O? 

Miles:
Did I not call you?

Liam:
Parang may na-receive nga akong call.

Miles:
What did I tell you?

Liam:
Wala naman akong maalala masyado. Alam ko namang lutang ka no'n. 

(Silence)

Liam:
Wala kang sinabing makakasakit sa 'kin, kung 'yon ang iniisip mo.

Miles:
How... sure are you, if you can't remember? 

Liam:
Kasi wala talaga. May iba ka bang ipinagwo-worry?

(Long silence)

Miles:
Well... Uh, I'm just worried... (Swallows) na baka sinabi ko sa 'yo na sagutin ako agad? Or did I beg for you to take me back? Agad? Or something stupid and audacious? (Gasp) (Rising tone) Or did I ask you to ask me to marry you? Because I saw Mond's marriage proposal and baka nasabi ko 'yon since naisip ko before ako matulog? Oh my God! 

Liam:
Naisip mong... magpo-propose ako sa 'yo?

Miles:
No. I mean, yes, but not that way. I mean, na-imagine ko lang, kasi I think it's nice if we get to that point one day, and then you're going to ask me... to... uhm... (Mutters: Shit, this is embarrassing...)

(Silence)

Miles:
I'm needed at work na pala. Uhm--

Liam:
(Chuckling) Sandali lang, Miles--

Miles:
Bye, Liam. 

Call ended.
