To: Jho
Please don't be mad, we'll see each other soon. I promise .. I missed you too :(

I miss her so bad. But I can't see her now. I need to be away from her for awhile.

To get myself away from danger. To save our friendship...

All this time I had a clue on what's going on with me. And I know, I need to stop it right away.

This is wrong .. This is so wrong ..

She's my bestfriend. And that supposed to remain that way.

I got out and went to dad. He's in the garden, this is where we usually take our breakfast.

I sat down beside him

"Kain na" I smiled and get some bacon, hotdogs and bread. "Ang konti naman niyan"

Nag-peace lang ako kay dad. Gusto niya kasi marami akong kinakain. Eh hindi naman ako malakas kumain, si Jho lang naman ang matakaw.

"Si mommy po?" I ask and he grinned. Ok ang weird ni daddy

"Tulog pa. Pagod yun" kumunot naman ang noo ko.

"Why? What did she do last night?"

Dad shook his head

"Oh princess, I swear you don't wanna know" Dad laughed and I hit his arm

Ugh! Bad daddy, bad!

"My God, dad! That's gross!" I said and laugh

"That's love baby, not gross"

I smiled and stare at my food.

Love?

"What is love dad?" I ask out of nowhere. I don't know, it just came out of my mouth.

"Love is something that makes you happy" He touch my hand and squeeze it "yung kahit wala siyang ginagawa, masaya ka pa rin kapag nakikita mo siya"

I look at dad and saw him smiling.

"B-but .. You can be happy without getting involve into love  right?" I stopped and look away "Because love is too ... complicated.."

love is a big word .. it should not be named unless you are really sure about it.

"Yes it is baby.. But the problem is, once you fell inlove, hindi mo na mababago yun. Maybe in time maka-move on ka. But it takes time, hindi natuturuan ang puso." Dad held my chin and made me look at him "Are you inlove, Bea?"

He smiled and I .. I don't know how to react ..

I laughed. An awkward laugh! I shook my head before drinking some water

"N-no dad. Of course not. I--I am just curious about it" I smiled and get back on eating

Ano ba kasing ginagawa ko? Bakit ba ko nagtatanong kay daddy ng mga ganon??

"Okay. But remember this, kapag inlove ka na. You have to tell me okay? I should be the first one to know" He smiled and I just nod.

Malabo yun dad. Sobrang labo ..

"Matagal pa yun dad" I laugh tho I don't really know what to think.

Is this love? What am I feeling? Infatuation? What? I freakin wanna know!

"Kamusta na si Jho?" Dad suddenly ask and I stared at him for awhile but then I smiled.

"Ayos lang naman po"

"Is she busy?"

"P-po? Hindi naman siguro. W-why?"

No .. Im not liking what dad is thinking .. It is not a good idea.
