It's almost five thirty, and I need to leave. Early dismissal kami ngayon, so I quickly packed up my things and went out of the campus.


I made sure that my gift was perfectly sealed. I went inside my car and drove off to a restaurant.


"Koala!" I squeled, as soon as I saw him smiling in a table for two.


He pouted, so I gave him a kiss. I sat down and he squished himself to me. He interlocked our hands and kept on showering kisses on my cheeks.


"Happy Anniversary." I smiled sheepishly.


"Happy Anniversary!" He excitedly said. I handed out my gift. It was his all-time favortie perfume. He tenderly smiled at me.


"You don't have to." He said. I pouted giving him an assured smile.


"Bakit hindi! It's our anniversary,  hindi ako magpapatalo 'no!" I exclaimed.


Kapag kase magse-celebrate kami ng monthsaries, I always give him simple yet special gifts, like letters from my day to day basis, or I'll cook for him instead of going out. Thankfully, my koala is very appreciative and always cherishes my efforts.


I don't want our relationship to revolve in materialistic things, I just want to keep it memorable. Tho, he always spoils me with his gifts. But since we've accomplished a year together, I'll make an exemption.


He handed out a bouquet of roses that was laid on the table. Kanina pa 'ko rito pero ngayon ko lang napansin.


He went to my back and I just felt a cold tingling sensation on my neck. When I looked down, I saw a pretty infinite pendant in gold. I smiled, holding it tightly,  hoping that this will be infinite. That ours is gonna last.


Sana kahit na magbago kami sa mga susunod pang taon, we'll always find a reason to stay. Kasi ito na e. Ito na. Everything feels right when I'm with him. I'm so sure when I'm with him. He taught me how to grow. He wasn't just my boyfriend, he was always something more.


He held my hand tighter. And gave me a stop-overthinking-look. I nodded and gave him a smile.


"Feeling ko ang yaman ko na sa sobrang rami ng kwintas na rineregalo mo sa'kin." I teased.


"Feeling ko rin ang baho ko kapag rineregaluhan mo 'ko ng pabango." He shot back.


"Hey! It's because of your unconditional love for scent!" I defended myself.


He cheekily smirked and hugged me sideways.


"Mas mahal kita."


"Ang landi mo." I can't help but to laugh.


"Of course! Anniversary natin!"


"Grabe. Isang taon. Isang taon akong nagtiis." I dramatically said.
