@Yen 12 February 2021 more from that month

It's been decade (A love story) Part 2.

We became textmate. Since I am college and he was in High School , I introduced him to my sister because my sister is also High School that time but he didn’t show interest of knowing my sister. Our conversation become more intimate. We already exchanging sweet text without realizing that I started to fall for him. Our set up remains like that hoping that time comes that he will confess his love to me but I am wrong. One day my sister told me that he saw L with another girl and it seems that they are in relationship. I know I don’t have the right to confront him but I did. I did it by asking him without him noticing that I am just wanting an answer. He answered that yes , it was his girlfriend and they been together for 15 days. After he said that I stop texting him and moved on until he texted me. He told me that he is single because he find out that the girl is cheating to him. I acted neutral that time and we started to text again. After a month , finally I heard what I want to hear. He wants to court me but that time I am not so interested to him anymore. He courted me for about a month and I still no idea if I will going to said yes to him. Its January 18 that time , I am drank and I made a mistakes. I texted him yes. I am shocked when I woke up when I read our conversation and yeah. That’s the start of our relationship. Since I am college and he is in High School we are not seeing more often but he showed effort and went to my university just to see me even for a short period of time. It was Valentines Day that time, he went to my university with teddy bear and roses. I feel so special that time and the student starring at us. I have a class that time so I cannot be with him for a long time and he also don’t allowed inside our university so we will continue our Valentines after our class. We are not a typical couple who hang out in malls or something , besides malls are bit far from our places. We only went to a park. Its not an official park actually, its like a vacant lot with lot of trees and chairs and here in our place we called it “libis ng pag ibig” because it’s a dating place. Its like Luneta or BGC where you can sit on the grass and breath some fresh air while watching the birds and the blue sky. I thought his surprise was finished but I was wrong. He bought some heart shape donuts and a necklace for me with a heart pendant. The necklace is not gold, it will faded as the time passed by. He told me that for now he will only give me that because he has no money and I told him that I didn’t wish for those kind of material things because his presence and his love are enough for me. He was the one wore that necklace. It was like in a TV series that the guy put the necklace to the girl. That was so sweet. The next month , it was March. Its their High School graduation. I am so excited because I told him that after graduation , I told him to take an entrance exam on our university so that we can be together in one university. Thinking those things make me excited. Imagine , you can see each other everyday and going home together but it didn’t happened. He take the entrance exam but failed to enter college because of financial problem. His father got hospitalized and find out that his father has a lung cancer. I understand the reason why he stopped studying but I always encouraged him to continue to pursue college because for me education is important. While I am studying , he try to find job because he wants to help his family but he only applied in informal establishment with low salary. I told him to be confident all the time , I motivate him and convince him to dream for more but it seems he doesn’t have confidence. From those moment of our relationship , I started to think twice if I will continue my relationship to him. This is not the guy I want to marry, this is not the guy that my parents wanted for me. How can I introduced him to my parents and telling them he is out of school youth. That’s a few question on my mind that time and for that reason I broke up with him. I told him that he needs to proved himself to me. He respect my decision and we broke up in good terms. After a month I had a relationship with my classmate. Our relationship lasted for 6 months and the reason of our break up is L. Yes, it was him. It was February that time when me and my classmate went to a parade on our town and when we watched it I saw L on the parade because he has devotion on the patron saint of that celebration. The moment I saw him is like a slow motion and didn’t noticed that my tears started to fall. That time my boyfriend is with me and I didn’t tell him what I saw but he saw me in tears and asked me why. I lied to me and told him its nothing. That night someone texted me and it was him. That night he told me that he still loves me. I am emotional that time and I am carried away and I said our feelings were mutual. That night we met and that night I told him that I already have a boyfriend and he told me that he has a girlfriend also. To be continued..
