Lost In The Weather (Lusiento High Series 01)

CHAPTER 50

CHAPTER 50 | END |

I can't help but to laugh hilariously after I accidentally found an old notebook of mine. Turning the first page, I saw a poem I wrote eight years ago.

Wondering, Wanting, Waiting

I believe in fate and perfect timing,
but sometimes love makes me wonder.
They said it's like the first drop of rain, it's like traveling in the right lane.
A honey in warm water,
A rainbow colors colliding together.

A fate and a perfect timing,
but love when are you coming?
I'm being patient pretending I care less, believing all comes in right places and phases.
But my heart is silently wanting for something, please don't take long cause I'm longing.

I wrote this when I was young, when I knew nothing about love at all. Basta sabi nila masaya kapag may minamahal at nagmamahal sa 'yo. I'm a romance addict so I want to experience it as well, kaya lang alam ko sa sarili ko na masyado pa 'kong bata noong mga panahon na iyon.

Curiosity about love made me write that poem. That's why I wished that when the right time comes, love will not take long to find me.

Naalala ko tuloy ang pag-uusap namin ni Yijin sa bundok noong binisita namin si Mama. Tinanong ko siya kung bakit niya 'ko gusto. He told me he just love everything about me. I appreciated it but I wanted a more specific answer so he said, "I love the way you stare at me, the way you smile to people, the way you freely shake your hands with them. I love your genuinity, your emotional intelligence, your passion and love for everything you want to do. . . I admire it the most. I love your voice, your cuteness, your timidness sometimes, I love them all. I'm in love with everything about you especially your heart."

Noong sinabi 'yon ni Yijin, parang gusto ko na lang hawakan ang kamay niya habang-buhay. Na-realize ko na tama ang isinulat ko sa tula na ito, love is like a first drop of rain. Yijin is someone I didn't anticipate to come to my life, he's the first drop of rain. An alarm that someone comforting as the rain will come.

Love is like traveling in the right lane, because with Yijin. . . it feels like nothing could go wrong. No U turns, no switching of lanes because I know I'm walking with him towards eternity.

Love is like a honey in warm water, 'yung tipong kaya mo namang mabuhay ng wala siya, kaya mo namang humanap ng comfort ng wala siya. . . pero mas maganda at matamis ang buhay kapag merong siya. A sweet kind of comfort people are surely craving for.

Love is like rainbow colors colliding together, because with him and our love for each  other, everything is magical. He gave colors to my life that I forgot I needed. He painted my life with colors more than ROY G BIV.

I also realized that God somehow granted my wish in this poem. I met Yijin earlier, I met the love of my life earlier back when I was sixteen. But God really has a plan, and indeed love is spelled T-I-M-E. Because the love I've been wondering, wanting, and waiting for came a little sooner but in perfect time for our timetable.

I want to stay in Lusiento for a month before going back to Manila to process my papers and requirements. I spent my time going to different places in Lusiento with Yijin, of course. Ang dami pa palang magagandang spot sa Lusiento na hindi ko pa napupuntahan kahit na matagal akong tumira rito noon.

My skin is almost tanned going to different places here in Lusiento with Yijin but I care less because I enjoyed everything.

Tatlong Linggo pagkatapos ng kasal ni Cruzel ay inimbita kami ni Chloe para sa isang despedida party. Para raw iyon kay Cruzel at sa asawa niya kasi aalis sila papuntang ibang bansa for honeymoon. Everyone wants to hangout kaya napagdesisyonan ang despedida party. At para mas masaya raw at mas nostalgic ang feeling, sleep over ang ganap. Kami-kami lang naman ang magpa-party slash sleep over kaya mukhang nakakatuwa nga iyon.
