I could not remember the last time I wake up in a very dreamy morning. 'Yong kamumulat mo palang at literal na wala pang nangyayari sa buong araw, pero nakangiti ka na. I think it's been so long since I have felt that. That kind of joy you cannot explain and you will not bother to explain, dahil ang mahalaga, nararamdaman mo nang totoo.

TGIF! Maagang nagsabi si Miss Almirano sa group chat namin na hindi siya makapapasok ngayon sa klase namin dahil may emergency daw sa bahay nila. Alas-sais pa lang ng umaga, napakasarap na ng ngiti ko habang nasa higaan dahil wala ring urgent schedule para sa OJT at hindi na rin kami ni-require ni Sir Domingo to meet in the university. Mag-focus na lang daw muna kami sa project, since ilang araw na lang, malalaman na kung ilan ang final numbers na nakuha ng Closure.

Kagabi, nang pasimple akong ihatid ni Ron sa tapat ng bahay namin, inasahan ko nang hindi agad ako makatutulog. Kaya, nagkaroon ako ng oras para mag-share ng link ng project sa iba pang mga kakilala at kaibigan ko para mag-promote. As of 11:23 last night, the video garnered 902K views, more than 52K reactions and shares, and 21K comments. Literal na malala. The whole group never thought that we could manifest the 1M-target!

And this morning, as I opened my chat box, Veronnieca reminded us again in our group chat to keep on promoting the video para sure win na! But a new message caught my eyes...


Ron Jacob: Good morning Prin... 7:16am


Mas lalong lumapad ang ngiti sa labi ko habang komportableng nakahiga pa rin sa kama ko.

Tumagilid ako ng puwesto at saka binuksan ang mensahe mula kay Ron.


Ron Jacob: Good morning Princess! Thank you so much for this. Sobrang ganda ***insert crying emojis***


And then he sent a photo of him smiling so big while wearing the earphones I gave him last night. Muntik ko pa ngang hindi maibigay sa kanya 'yon kagabi, kung hindi lang ako nagbukas ng bag para piliting ilibre siya ng pamasahe pauwi.


Ron Jacob: And also to this. Thank you <3


He sent another photo of him holding the note I placed inside the gift.


Ron Jacob: Please know that I miss you and thinking of you today. :( I love you.


Ron Jacob set your nickname to Mahal kong Prinsesa.


Matagal kong tinitigan ang mga mensahe niya. Lalo na ang retratong isinend niya.

Bagama't may iilan pa rin akong alinlangan at takot paminsan-minsan, pero... How could this amazing guy love someone like me more than I deserve? And my heart just swelled at that simple question.

Babangon na sana ako para makasabay sina Mommy at Daddy mag-almusal nang biglang...


Kuya Supervisor is calling...


Nanlaki ang mga mata ko. The heck?! Why does he have to call?! Ang aga-aga!

I subconsciously combed my hair. The heck talaga, Sandra?! Tumatawag lang siya, uy! Then got up out of my bed to lock my door, and cleared my throat before I answered the call.
