FOUND YOU IN THE MIDDLE OF PANDEMIC

THE BEST DAY EVER

Dhale’s POV.

Bigla akong naalimpungatan ng may naramdaman akong humaplos sa buhok ko kaya agad naman akong nagmulat nang mga mata isang nakangiting mukha ng taong mahal ko ang bumugan sakin I smiled back him “did I wake you up?” he ask almost whispering “NO Im already awake. By the way good morning “I reply while smiling at him again, napa kunot ako ng noo nang may nabasa akong kakaibang emosyon sa mga mata neto.

“Is there something bothering you ?’’ I ask umiling lang ito saka ngumite simpre I ain’t satisfied “It couldn’t be nothing I can see it in your eyes“ I said seriously he already know that I can read his mind he took a deep breath before he speak again tumihaya ito ng pagkakahiga “I'm just wondering what she doing right now. If she's alright I want to know“ I hesitated to reply but I decided to say whats in my mind.

“hm.. I think she’s fine. She’ll take a good care of herself.” I said while cheering him up although it's hurt for me but I have to endure it. At first I was the one who take this risk so I have no right to refuse.. ‘’Today is valentines haha I want to date her like I usally do every year“ he spoke again it's hurt twice than before pero di ko pweeding ipahalata.

“Then Go date her’’ I said confidently he look at me sinalubong ko ang tingin nito “you know I can’t do that’’ he replied while chuckling I laugh “haha of course you can’t don’t be upset she’s fine. And If you feel pity for being dateless today di ka nagiisa okay haha.. You can date me so stop worrying sabi mo nga diba worrying can make your immune system weaken“ I said while raising my eye brows haha I still tried to have fun with it even its no use deep inside. He kiss my forehead “go back to sleep maaga pang masyado“ he said.

I closed my eyes saka sumiksik sa dibdib nito bilang tugon I feel his arms wrapped around me, di ko alam ang mararamdaman ko ng mga oras na to sobrang naguguluhan na ako sa damdamin ko at pati sakanya I remember when he told he like me but why the hell he miss Elisse? I feel jealous she so lucky she had Kevin’s heart until now maging sa feelings ko ayy nalilito rin ako. I don’t know why hes treating me like this while he still had feelings for that girl its hurt a lot haiyst I want to cry the pain away but I don’t know how to.

Katatapos lang naming kumain ng meryenda nang bigla akong makatangap ng tawag mula sa unknown no. Sinagot koi to agad baka kasi si ate to “Dhale..” I almost drop my phone when I heard his voice nanlalamig ako ramdam ko ang panginginig nag buong katawan ko. di ako agad nakasagot “Dhale are you still there? I just want to know if you’re okay“ he speak again how dare him to ask me like that what are he thinking magsasalita pa sana ito but I cut him off.

“I'm fine. What do you want?” I said codly “easy Dhale don’t be like that btw happy valentines pala wala ka pala sainyo do you want me to pitch you iuuwe kita? At nga pala I know you heard about the DOH announcement I want you to be part of it” he ask me and what make’s me snap ay yun huling sinabi nito I chuckled bago muling nagsalita ‘’You know what Ram it's no use! So stop it di bagay sayo. And whats with you kung nasaan man ako? And another thing is about sa program it's for you to know but for me to decide’’ I said habang nagpipigil sa galit I want ti rip his neck.

“Dhale don’t be like that wala naman akong ginawa sayo ah! Tinotoyo ka nanaman ata eh at tsaka its your job to obey my command as your president” may halong pagamamataas ang tono ng boses nito lalo na sa huling linyang binitiwan, dam him! “how dare you Ram! I'm not going with you so stop calling me!’’ I haised before he could speak I hung up and turn my phone off nagpupuyos ako sa galit who the hell he think he is?! Ihilamos ko sa mukha ko ang palad ko because of frustration napasalampak ako ng upo sa sofa How could he change like hes no longer the Ram I use to know.

Hes no longer the Ram I’ve loved di naman sya ganto dati ehh he always make me smile before, he use to be the reason of my happiness ayaw pa nga yang nalulungkot ako but now, sya na ang dahilan kalungkutan ko how cruel right? Di ko lubus maisip kung ano bang nagawa ko at pinarurusahan nya ako ng ganto. Does he enjoying it? Di ko ma predict kung alin ba ang totoo sakanya yun bang Ram na nakilala ko na minahal ko? or yung Ram na nagpapahirap sakin ngayon?

I never thought about it ni hindi ko man lang naisip na gagagohin ako ni Ram because I know deep in my heart he love me but why is he doing this to me? It isn’t greate at all. The Ram I used to know will never thought of something will harm others specially his woman.. napangiwi ako sa naisip tss oo nga pala I'm no longer his woman.

All this time gusto kong malinawan about sakanya but why there's no answer yet? Ginagawa ko naman ang lahat to stay beside him kahit ang sakit sakit na … Di kona alam kung anong uunahin ko sobrang confused na talaga ako sumasabay sabay nanaman lahat problema ko baka di na to kayanin ng utak ko, nung una financial lang ang inisip ko then nadagdagan ng COVID hell of course Ram at ngayon nakadagdag pa ang nabubuong damdamin ko okay Kevin I never thought it would come far as this. Ni di ko nga maiisip na mafafall ako sakanya while I'm still in love with someone else it couldn’t be.

Maging sa mga pinapakita nya ay nalilito also I'm scared na baka wala lang rin ito sakanya, baka si Elisse parin pala, baka ngayon lang to kasi ako ang nasa tabi nya. At ako eto hulog na s**t! This is not fair I want to cry but theres no tears coming out bakit ba kasi nagyayari sakin to? I need to guard my heart from now on didistansya na ako. Tatayo na sana ako when someone touched my shoulder I look at its hand “Are you okay? kanina kapa naka tulala jan.”

He said I look at his face I can read what in his mind its sincerity haiystt pls don’t be like that lalo akong mafafall nanatili akong nakatitig sakanya when suddenly pull me inside our room wth? Enebe crush ang wild mo ahh na surprise ako sa ginawa nito kaya di na ako naka angal pa pero mas nasurprise ako sa nakita ko sa loob ng kuwarto it's decorated with a small light bulb na binagdugtong na tali ang sahid ayy puno ng rose petals na pira piraso there's a small table sa gitna ng room it has a foods and bottle of wine tas merong candle sa gitna tapos yung light bulb na nakasabit sa buong kuwarto ayy may mga nakasabit na pictures it was my photos alone, and him also puro stolen shots yung sakin but its look like taken from a expert may ilan ding magkasama kami dalawa I can't believe na ginawa nya ito I want to cry because of joy but I don’t know how to “did you like it?” he ask with a wide smile on his face hinarap ko ito “I … so much love it “ nauutal kong sagot I can’t find a words to say.

“hmm greate lets enjoy this date “ he said while leading me to the table “ why did you do it?” kusang lumbas sa bibig ko “diba sabi mo I date kita? Kaya here it is“ he said tumaas taas pa ito ng kilay “sira ka talaga alam mong nagbibiro lang ako kanina“ sagot ko ulet “sus kinikilig kalang eyy hahaha” tss ang hangin talaga halikan kita jan ey “tss di mo manlang sinabing may date tayo di sna nakapaghanda ako tignan mo naman itsura ko first date natin tapos naka pajamas ako“ reklamo ko para di masyadong halata ang kinikilig ko “sus ako rin naman ahh tsaka panu ba kita masasabihan eyy 2 oras kanang nakatulala don.‘’ sagot neto habang nilalagyan ako ng pagkain sa plato “kahit pa!’’ hirit ko habang naka pout.

‘‘haiyst its okay cute naman t- shirt mo“ sagot nito “eyy cute bato tignan mo nga oh ang laki----“ habang hinawakan ko di kona natuloy pa ang sasabihin nang mapansin ko na pareho pala kami ng t-shirt napatitig ako rito naka ngite sya sakin ng malawak “see? pareho tayo .. don’t worry you look cute with that ! sabi mo nga diba its our first date so dapat kalimutan muna natin lahat ng problema. LET’S ENJOY THIS NIGHT OKAY?‘’ he said sabay pinch ng nose ko di naman ako nakaimik at napatulala lang sa mukha nya.

Ramdam ko ang paginit ng mga pisngi ko s**t I'm blushing nakakahiya tumawa naman ito ng malakas “you know that love it when I see you’re face turning red like a cherry .. wahh so cute” he said with a smile s**t mas cute ka ugok kiss kita jan eyy “stop it nakakahiya na“ he just laugh i could feel my heart is punding to much like it was about explode.
