HALOS ISANG LINGO na ang lumipas pagkatapos ng birthday party ni Lola Emilia at halos isang lingo na ring hindi umuwi ng Ilocos si Alas. He would always text me at night with sweet messages telling me that he missed me and that he was really busy doing stuff in Manila. The only consolation I had from him was his promise that when he got home, we would plan our wedding right away and if necessary had the ceremony later of this year, much to my delight. Assurance. He gave me assurance and I appreciated that. It was enough to me. I should’ve have expected this when my heart decided to fall hard for a politician like Alas. After all, hindi na bago sa akin ang bagay na ito. Palagi rin namang wala si Lolo sa bahay. A heavy yet contented sigh escaped my lips before I decided to move out my bed
