My Pretty Boy

Chapter 54: The Kiss

"Where are we going?"

"Surprise...you don't want to sleep?"

"No...nawala na ata ung sumpa ni Colette saken eh."

He chuckled....we're driving off to somewhere. Nilagyan niya ako ng takip sa mata.  Sinundo ako ni Josh at around three in the morning.  As usual napagpaalam na niya ako kila Mama.

"Oh wag mo muna itatanan ha?  Hindi naman kame against sa pagpapakasal ninyo, pero magtapos muna sana kayo ha?" - bilin ni Papa kay Josh. Hindi ko sure kung ibinubugaw na ba ako ng parents ko or sadyang understanding lang sila?  Hindi ko naman masasabing dahil mayaman sila Josh kaya okay lang kay Papa na magpakasal kame, money has never been as issue with him.

Ayokong matulog.  Kahit na kulang ako sa beauty rest dahil late na rin kame nakauwi kagabi since hinatid pa namen si Dane sa napakalayong school ni Ali. Kahit alam kong magkakamustahan na naman kame ni eyebugs maya maya lang, I'd rather stay up.

I missed being with my boyfriend na wala kameng ibang iniintindi kundi kameng dalawa lang.  No Colette, no Paulo, no proposals....nothing but just the two of us.

"Thank you boyfriend." - just like this...being with him, is enough for me.

"We haven't reached half way of where we are going." - he answered

"I know...you're always giving me more.  I only asked to spend time with you, but you have something more, as always."

He stopped somewhere.  Bibili daw muna siya ng food namen dahil medyo malayo pa daw ang  byahe.  Since I'm blind-folded, he's feeding me. 

Nung natapos na kame kumain, he continued to drive while holding my hands.  Nagrequest ako ng Starbucks if ever may madaanan kame.  I need caffeine today kasi ayokong makatulog dahil kahit nga araw-araw kame magkasama ni Josh parang ang layo pa rin namen sa isa't-isa.  Iba kasi ang inaasikaso namen.

Hindi na kame nakapag celebrate ng Valentine's Day kahapon, even dinner.  Maaga nga daw niya kasi ako susunduin ngayon kaya it's better for me to get some sleep now.  Babawi nalang daw siya today.

-----------------

"We're here....don't remove your blind-fold, don't get out of the car." - utos ng boyfriend ko. Mean!!!!

Bago siya bumaba ng kotse, nilagyan niya ako ng headset saka pinahawak saken yung Ipod niya.  It's playing "God Gave Me You." Seriously, eto na ba ang theme song sa wedding namen?

I lowered the volume para marinig ko what he's doing.  Atleast even if I can't see him I'll know his actions.

Bumaba na siya ng kotse,  then suddenly he opened my door.

"Naughty girlfriend."- sabi niya saka niya ulet nilakasan yung volume ng Ipod.

He removed my strappy sandals, and he carried me like we're newly weds.  Wala na ako iba marinig kundi ung music.  Naglalakad lang si Josh sa hindi ko alam kung papunta saan.  Imposible kasing sa condo kame pupunta kasi hindi naman ganon kalayo ang byahe....I don't even know how many hours we drove.

Nung binaba na ako ni Josh, nagulat ako sa natapakan ko.

"Sands!!!!!" - tili ko habang tinatanggal ni Josh yung headset ko,  saka ko narinig yung waves.

"Ohmaygahdd!!! Nasa beach tayo?????" - tili ko ulet.  Kkyyaaaahhh ang tagal ko ng hindi nakakapag beach, nung nag Batangas kasi si Josh nung sembreak hindi naman ako kasama eh.  Wait nasa Batangas ba kame now???

Tinanggal na niya yung blind-fold ko...sakto sa sunrise.  Ang ganda.....

"You said you want to go sa beach diba? Welcome to the San Juan Private beach." - Josh
