"Of course, I will see you tonight Troy. Yang si Nica marami pang hindi sinasabi sa akin... So Mike will not be joining us also...No it's okay I'll drive myself no need to worry. See you. Ingat." Ibinaba ko ang telepono ng tumunog naman ang cellphone ko.
"Yes Joaquin? Tonight? Naku I'm sorry. May dinner meeting ako. Let's set it some other time na lang." Niyayaya ako for dinner dahil ipapakilala daw niya sa akin si Isabelle.

Dinner with Troy
"I met her in one of the seminars attended in New York. Sa isang cafe din we clicked and the rest is history. Kaya I am planning to propose to her once this project is done." Kuwento ni Troy regarding her girlfriend of three years while we are having dinner.
"Oh how sweet. Maswerte siya sa'yo. You're not just very good-looking, smart and mabait pa ha. What more can she ask for?"
"Naku, baka maniwala ako nyan. Ikaw kasi hindi mo ako pinapansin nung high school tayo lagi kasi naka buntot sa iyo si Joaquin bantay sarado ka." Sagot nito. "Naging kayo ba or should I say kayo ba? Kasi hanggang ngayon when Joaquin sees me parang gusto akong kainin ng buhay. Iba."
"Uy huwag ka ngang ganyan. Best friends lang kami ni Joaquin and besides ang daming babae sa buhay nun. Walang sineryoso lahat akala mo laro lang sa kanya. But once you get to know him naman he's a nice person and no, hindi galit sa'yo yun."
"Yun nga hindi nya sineryoso kasi sa iyo sya seryoso."
Natawa ako. "Ewan ko but he is... I can't explain. I don't know... At saka bakit ba siya ang pinag-uusapan natin malamang nakagat na nun ang dila nya kawawa naman."
"But seriously speaking, wala ka ba talagang balak mag settle down? Sa ganda mong yan at sa talino. If I am not committed I will pursue you."
"Wala nang nag attempt it's either they don't meet my standards or akala nila committed ako kay Joaquin." Sabi ko dito. "Nakakatawa and besides hindi rin naman ako naghahanap ng relationship. I'm happy with the way things are chill lang."
"But believe me, I am seeing your future with Joaquin and the way I see it you and Joaquin will end up together."
I wasn't aware that night na ang restaurant kung saan kami nag dinner ni Troy ay sya ring restaurant na pinagdalhan ni Joaquin kay Isabelle.

Romance"Joaquin ano ba?!" "Sssh..."inilapat nito ang daliri niya sa mga labi ko. "Remember the time when I told you na hihintayin ko na dumating ang araw na main-love ka sa akin?" "Y-Yes. Why?!" "Hindi ko na kayang hintayin yun." | Always | All Rights Rese...
