I know, it's hard for you to see
Exactly how much you mean to me
Since it's just a one way street
And I'm the only one who's on it
No one knows the way but me

TINA
We arrived at the party hand in hand. Sweet kunwari. After namin nag breakfast kanina, natulog lang siya. Nag punta ako sa kusina para sabihin ano ang lulutuin tapos umakyat ako at natulog na din. I woke up at 4. Ginising ko din siya para kumain ng late lunch. Sabi ni Yaya ginisng kami pero since di naman na kami bumababa kumain na lang daw sila. Pa smile snile pa silang lahat eh. Feeling ko nag iisip ng iba ang mga to.

After lunch, nagpalit na kami. Siya nanood pa ng tv while I was putting on my.make up. Five thirty na kami nakarating sa bahay. Nandun na yung mga members ng family pati ang parents ni Matt andun. Shocked nga kami kasi nagpunta sila. Nag uusap pa ang Daddy ko at Daddy niya. They were talking about boats and fishing and golf. Wala daw muna politics at sa ibang araw na yun. Natuwa naman sina Mama at Mommy kasi walang politics. Si Matt, nakahawak lang sa kamay ko hindi umaalis until kinausap siya ng mga pinsan ko about business. Kung guato daw ba niyang sumali sa business nila sa New York. Interesado naman. Ayaw niya kasi sumali sa business dito sa Pilipinas habang nasa politics pa siya. Huwag daw. Oh well. Stocks siya busy aside from politics hahahaha.

Kainan na and siyempre, kami na naman ang nakitang pag usapan.

"Wala pa bang maliit na Matt or Tina diyan? Ang hina naman yata ng bata natin ah, Matt?"

That's my Dad by the way.

" Oo nga eh balae, masyadong busy tong dalawang to. Matthew nakakahiya ka, ilang buwan na oh."

Daddy naman niya yun

" Kayo naman Dad, darating tayo diyan. Di ba Babe?"

"Hmmm"

" Let's dance?"

He pulled me up to my feet and we went to the garden near the pool nung marinig niya yung song. Our family cheered him up. Malapit kami sa speaker. He pulled me to him. He wrapped his arms around me. I felt his breath fanning my hair. He started singing along with the song.

Look at us now
Reaching back for yesterday
And wanting to know
If the other wants to stay

After all I'm the one who said we're through
Now I can't live without you anymore
And out there lost is a dream that can't come true
Is it worth the reaching for
Do you need me anymore,
Darling

Hold me till the morning comes
Until I see your smile
Take all the sadness from your eyes
Hold me till the morning sun
Let me stay we've just begun
I wanna stay with you


"I missed you, Tina."

I wanted to push him away and so I could see his face pero he held me close to him.

" Stay close please, baby."

"Matt" I whispered back.

"Hoy, kayong dalawa, tama na yan. Kain na kayo. Picture taking pa tayo mamaya."

We joined the family. He did not let go of my hand. Tinitignan ko siya pero hindi siya tumitingin sa akin. The air around us has become so thick that I could not breath properly. What are you trying to tell me Matt? Do you feel this thing I am feeling? Please don't tug on my heartstrings.
