I ignored them. Thinking na baka wala lang yun.
Then I saw them hugging each other so tight. As tears came through their eyes, I felt so weak.
S-sila ba?
I can't resist it.
So I ran away with tears falling from my eyes. I was so hurt. My ever-dreamed-romeo already have his Juliet. Kahit sino man ang makakita, malalaman mo talagang mahal na mahal nila isa't-isa.
Habang nakahiga ako sa kama ko, I took my laptop.
And as I open my account, may rumor agad na kumakalat na she is Warren's girlfriend.
I knew it. Di na sana ako umasa. Sa sobrang badtrip ko, sinarado ko na agad yung laptop. Nakakapang hina.
Tama na, Cindy. Tigilan mo na pagpapantasya mo. Wala naman talagang pupuntahan 'to eh.
Ang sakit isipin... na sa simula palang ng laban, talo ka na.
Titigilan ko na si Warren. Siguro mas okay na din 'to. Kakalimutan ko na sya.
Then biglang pumasok sa isip ko si PAOLO.
Sya nga kaya yung lalaking naka destined sakin?
Decided na ko. Pupuntahan ko si Mr. J.
Kelangan ko nang tapusin kung ano man to. Whoever he is, bahala na.
7:00 pm. Nagbihis na ko. Nag-ayos. I saw my self in the mirror.
Wow. The dress really suits me.
As I finished, may biglang bumusina sa labas ng bahay.
"Nak, sundo mo daw." sabi ni mama.
Sundo? Sino? Kinakabahan ako. Sya na kaya yun?
Lumabas na ko.
I saw the light coming from the car.
Just by looking at the car, you can tell that it is reallly expensive.
And there, standing a well dressed man.
It was---------------
A driver.
Telling me to go inside the car so that we can arrived at the said place.
I'm so nervous. Finally, makiita ko na din si Mr. J.
Gwapo kaya? Maputi? Mabait? Hmmm. Bahala na.
This is it. Nakarating na kami sa restaurant.
Binuksan nung driver yung door for me. Bumaba na ko sa kotse. Tapos naglakad sa hagdanan.
The red carpet with rose makes it impressive.
As the driver opened the door.....
I smelled the scent of the first love letter that I received.
It was dark.
Tinuro sakin nung driver yung table.
The table has candle light and roses on it.
And there, I saw him.
Naka suot sya ng damit na bagay na bagay sakanya.
Ang gwapo nya! As always....... The hairstyle. Ugh.
Tapos may spotlight pa sa kanya.
I can feel his sincerity through his eyes.
Grabe, red lips pa.
Naglakad ako papunta sa kanya.
Then he smiled at me.
That smile that makes me faint.
Finally. It's him.
PAOLO.
