Unbind the Strings

Fourteen

Hindi siya makaalis sa pwesto niya ng banggitin ko ang mga salitang hindi niya inaasahan. He deserves to be loved and appreciated. I'm not that showy but if telling him that I love him would make him feel happy, then I will. 

"Baby..." his tears are starting to form, looking straight at me. 

He went closer and smiled before pulling me in a tight hug. "I love you, sabi ko." I repeated.

"You're mine na?" he asked. I slowly nodded and he kissed me on my forehead.

"Shit, paano mo ako papatulugin nito?" he said.

"Aba, anong gusto mo? Ihele pa kita?" sabi ko, nakakunot ang noo.

"Wala ka ba talagang sweetness dyan sa katawan mo? Jowa mo na 'to, oh." pagreklamo niya.

"Ano ba dapat gawin ko? Hindi ko alam! Ikaw mas maharot sa'ting dalawa." I said back.

"Grabe ka naman sa'kin." he said before pouting. "Halika nga dito baka masakal na kita, eh." he said before pulling me again for a hug.

"I won't make you regret your decision, Cal. Thank you for trusting me." he said while carressing my hair. 

"Thank you for not giving up as well." he took a picture of us and posted it in his feed saying, "Hindi na niya kailangan ng braces, nabakuran ko na siya!"  Hindi ko alam kung nakakakilig 'yon kase ungas talaga 'to mag caption.

"I don't wanna go home yet..." he said, holding my hand.

"Umuwi ka na! Magkikita pa naman tayo bukas, 'di ba?" I said, looking at him.

"I wanna enjoy this moment," he said while pouting.

"Para namang b-breakan na kita, kung maka react ka. You can always enjoy this moment, I'm all yours." I smiled at him.

"I love you..." he said softly.

"I love you too." I said back.

"Gago naman kinikilig ako, eh!" sabi niya habang pinipigilan ang kanyang tawa. 

"Parang bakla, ah! Umuwi ka na baka mapagalitan ka pa ulit." I pushed him near to his car. 

"Kiss muna." he mouthed.

"Ulol. Ubos biyaya ka! 'Wag kang excited, 'di pa ako ready." I said awkwardly. He chuckled and instructed me to inside of the house.

"Go in na. Bye, love." he waved before walking in front of his car. 

I waved back at him but he shouted one more time. "Pst! No goodbyes pala! See you tomorrow!" he said while smiling widely.

"See you! Ingat sa pag dadrive!" I entered the house quietly, hindi parin nawawala ang ngiti sa aking mukha.

"What's with your face?" my mom asked, looking confused.

"Nothing Ma," I chuckled. "I'm just happy."

"Aba, ano kayang nangyari at sayang saya ka dyan?" she asked giving me a teasing look.
