"It looks like you forgot about me already" I saw her smile fading away
"N-no po tita. I still remember you po. Hindi lang po ako makapaniwala na-"
"Mas hindi ako makapaniwala na niligawan ka nitong anak ko" she giggled and hugged me tight "Kahit kailan talaga ang ganda ganda mo"
"Alam mo ba sinabihan ko na dati si Alena na irereto ko ang anak ko sa anak niya. Aba iyang mommy mo talaga umayaw bigla" I chuckled when Tita Rose pouted
"Sabagay, alam ko naman na ayaw iparanas ni Alena sa iyo ang naranasan niya dati"
Tita Rose talked a lot nagulat nalang ako ng bigla akong yakapan ni Jolo mula sa likod "Mommy naman. I can't even have my girlfriend for myself tonight" he pouted at his mother bigla bigla nalang tumili ang kaniyang ina kaya napalingon ang lahat sa amin.
"You are such a love bird! Fiona, hija. Please take good care of my baby boy okay? I could see that he loves you so much!" it warmed my heart. I nodded and smiled at her.
I yelped when Jolo pulled me towards their garden. I was not able to notice na meron palang fountain sa gitna ng garden nila. The garden was full of lights. It looked so colorful.It looked very magical.
"Alam mo ba all of this feel surreal to me," I looked at him, urging him to continue
"I never imagine na I would fall in love with someone again, hindi ko alam kung bakit kita nagustuhan ang plain plain" he chuckled and kissed my cheek when I gently slapped his cheek
"Ang kapal mo"
"I was just kidding bub. I felt this urge to protect you the moment I saw you at the gym. You had this very intimidating aura surrounding you at that time. Isang tingin lang sayo everyone would say, damn her aura shouts power. Kaya siguro madaming takot sa iyo," he wrapped my hands around his neck and he pulled me close to him
"Pero iba iyong nakita ko that time, I saw a very fragile girl. Someone shy hiding behind that intimidating persona. I am not saying this para baguhin ka. I am saying this para iparamdam sayo at ipaalam na sometimes, it is okay to be fragile and let someone take care of you"
"Alam ko hindi ikaw ang tipo na mag sasalita ng nararamdaman mo. Kaya I took the opportunity to say it in behalf of you, bub" he smiled at me as we continued dancing even though wala namang music.
"Jolo" i whispered
"Hmm? Yes bub?" he softly muttered against my neck
"I love you"
He froze kaya bigla ako nag alala. Was I too straight forward?
"Damn baby" his hug tightened and he buried his face even more
"I love you, Fiona"
"This might be cheesy for you, pero I want to grow old with you, Jolo. You're my first boyfriend and I want you to be my last as well. I may not be a perfect girlfriend, I may not be like your exes before pero-" I was not able to finish my sentence when I felt his lips pressed in to mine
He cupped my cheeks to deepen the kiss, walang pakealam kahit may makakita sa amin dito sa labas.
He pushed his tongue inside my mouth and wandered inside it, biting my lower lip. I was flustered pero sinabayan ko ang pag halik niya sa akin.
I was running out of breathe at alam ko na ang pula pula na ng mukha ko kaya yumuko na lamang ako. He kissed my forehead at bigla niya nalang ako niyakap.
"I want to grow old with you, Fiona. I won't let anything happen to you. I'll protect you no matter what happens"
1 year. Hindi ko iniexpect na ganyan na pala kami katagal. Parang ang bilis lang ng panahon. Jolo and I are already on our 4th year. Him being an engineering student, he still has one more year. Pero ako, graduating student na ako.
Masyadong mabilis ang mga pangyayare. Jolo and I did not get the chance to see each other a week after nung opening ng class. Because both of us are busy and yes ako pa din ang student council president. I do not know, gusto ko na sana mag pahinga pero sabi nila na tumabko ulit ako, so I did.
I was fixing my books when I saw Jolo's text. We will be seeing each other tonight and super excited na ako! We did not get the chance to celebrate our 1st eyar anniversary kasi exam week namin. So we had a study date nalang.
Alexis and I were on our way to the cafeteria when we saw a group of boys on the hallway. I saw how Alexis gripped on her books, she's not that comfortable kapag may mga nagkukumpulan na mga lalake kaya I held her hand and smiled at her.
Medyo nakalayo na kami ng konti sa mga lalake ng may biglang humawak sa kamay niya. Alexis jumped kaya naging alerto ako.
"Excuse me, that was very rude of you" naka kunot ang noo ko and I looked at the guys straight in the eye.
He looked at me apologetically kaya medyo nagulat ako "I'm sorry"
"Umm. I just want to introduce myself to your friend, president" he smiled at both of us
"But it looks like my friend does not want to know you" tinaasan ko siya ng kilay at kinuha ang kamay ni Alexis.
He still smiled and he looked at Alexis in the eyes "My name Sky, I hope to see you again soon, Soliel"
After saying his name agad naman siyang umalis. I was about to rant ng makita ko si Alexis na namumula. "Hoy ano nangyare sayo"
She snapped and looked at me "Ah, wala wala. Halika na? Baka hinihintay na tayo ni Stephanie sa caf" I know something is wrong pero hinayaan ko nalang.
I saw Jolo as soon as I got out from the house. Agad agad akong tumakbo at niyakap siya. He groaned and chuckled. Niyakapa niya ako at agad na hinalikan ang mga labi ko.
It felt like forever before we stopped kissing each other. Pumasok na kami sa sasakyan niya and he started the engine.
Saan tayo ngayon? This was our routine every night whenever we have the time. Road trip. We enjoy watching the city lights at night.
"Did you bring beer?" tanong ko sa kanya. Bigla na lamang siya tumawa "I did. I only brought 5 though,bub" I pouted "Dalawa lang iinumin mo?" umalingawngaw ang tawa niya sa loob ng sasakyan.
He pinched my nose "No,bub. YOU will only drink 2 bottles" I frowned. "What? No. Kaya ko naman 3 bottles eh!" angal ko sa kanya but he just laughed at me.
"Yeah yeah. Let me remind you missy, that you have low alcohol tolerance. Okay?" He went near me and whispered into my ears.
"I do not want you drunk, miss" he bit my ears playfully
He looked at me, I could see how he wet his lips with his tongue. I know that he wants more. Because I know, I want more.
He cupped my face and devoured my lips. I automatically wrapped my arms around his neck to deepen the kiss. He was nibbling my lower lip, asking for entrance. So I opened my mouth and he sled his tongue to explore mine.
He moved to my neck and started ravishing it. Leaving his marks. My eyes widen when I felt him biting my neck "A-ah" he chuckled when he heard me moan
"F*ck baby. Are you sure you're ready?" he's already panting, I saw how red his ears were
I smiled and pecked his lips
"Take me, Jolo"
