"We can go to the park nearby on our next date, if you want?"
I looked at him in the eye to make sure that he wasn't joking about what he said this time. So meron pang susunod?
He laughed at my expression then said,
"I was just joking earlier to see your reaction and see if you're actually serious... Because I am."
"Hindi ba ako mukhang seryoso? Eh kunti nalang nga na ako na ang mangliligaw sayo!"
Mukhang hindi na niya napigilan ang tuwa at tuluyan na siyang natawa sa sinabi ko. Seryoso kaya ako.
"Nagpaparinig ka ba?"
Hindi naman yun yung ibig sabihin ng sinabi ko pero...
"Hindi naman pero pwede rin naman kung gusto ko. Kung gusto mo lang naman."
He licked his lower lip and looked at me directly in the eyes.
"Maybe next time. Soon even... Maghahanap lang ako ng lakas ng loob."
Emeged. Tetee be yeng senesebe me bebe ke?
Ang pabebe haha.
"Maghahanap ka pa ng lakas ng loob? Hindi mo na yun kailangan noh! Ako lang toh, grabe ka naman. At kahit kailan ka magsimula, iisa lang ang magiging resulta niyan. Magiging tayo at magiging mag-asawa sa future."
"So ikaw na ba yung magaling manghula sa ating dalawa ngayon?"

"Even in hell?"
My eyes widen a bit because of what he said.
"Alam mo, Gavin, kaya mo namang mag-isa sa totoo lang eh. At kaya ko rin namang hindi ka makita."
He laughed and I laughed with him, almost forgetting what he said earlier that hurted my feelings a bit.
Bumalik na kami sa company and bid our goodbyes so we can't disturb each other while working. We still need to be professional, especially when hundreds of eyes are watching us.
Papasok na sana ako sa office ni Daddy to inform him na nakabalik na ako ng harangin ako nila Crisel and Elaine just to tease me about the date I had with Gavin.
"So what nangyari sa date mo with Gavin?" Tanong ni Elaine na umaapekto na naman ang ka-conyohan.
"Did you two kiss already? Dapat nag-kiss na kayo! Pang-ilang date niyo na yan eh. Hiya-hiya pa kayong nalalaman, maglalampungan rin naman kayo sa huli." Sabi naman ni Crisel while fixing her hair with her right hand.
