Fiction: But hoping to be true.
Ever wonder if there really is someone for everyone? Hi, Im Zishel. I dont want to describe myself, let your imagination go wild. I do however
work sa business district ng pilipinas. It was a very boring day at work so after office hours decided to treat myself with a movie. Who says girls
cant watch movies alone. HA!! I was seated on the far left side. May tatlong bakanteng upuan then may couple. Di pa nag sisimula yung
movie when I heard someone crying. I looked to my left when I saw the girl crying and the guys head was bowed down. Alam ko comedy tong
movie na pinasukan ko ha. Biglang walk out yung babae leaving the guy just seating there.The movie started when I hear someone sniffing.
Ung parang may sipon, I thought to myself is the guy crying. I cant see kasi madilim. He looked up to me annoyed. Yung parang tingin na
WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING AT. So i starred at the screen. Patingin tingin pa rin ako sa guy, just curious on ano nangyari.I cant even see his
face kung gwapo ba or what.
Paul: Would you stop looking at me!
Me: Ay!! sorry.. Are you ok?
Paul: Do i look like im ok to you?? Are you stupid or something. Anong klaseng tanong ba yan
Me: well excuse me for asking. buti nga iniwan ka ng gf mo!
He suddenly left his seat and approached me.
Paul: anong sinabi mo?
Me: ha? wala.
I was so freaking scared. His tall, and hmmm gwapo. And I can see a scar s may kilay nya reminds of the lion king yung si scar? Anyway getting
away from my story…
Paul: Hindi eh. You said something eh. Bat di mo ituloy. Parepareho kyong mga babae.
Me: Excuse me… ANG SABI KO BUTI NA LANG INIWANAN KA NG GF MO!
He suddenly looked straight into my eyes and I can sense yung anger nya and I can smell his cologne sa sobrang lapit ng mukha nya sa mukha
ko. I felt my heartbeat from my chest. I was so scared. Prang sa tingin nya gusto nya kong sapakin. He held my arm and I can feel na parang
mababali sa sobrang hawak nya sa braso ko.
Paul: YOU DONT KNOW SHIT ABOUT WHAT IVE GONE THROUGH SO DONT GO SAYING THINGS YOU DONT KNOW NOTHING
ABOUT!
Me: ouch! your hurting me. please let go.
Parang bigla syang natauhan he let go of my arm, he sat right next to me.
Paul: Im sorry. I didnt know what came over me. Im so sorry..
I heard him sob. Buti na lang wla masyadong tao d2 sa sinehan. I didnt know what to do. Hinagod ko likod nya while umiiyak sya. I feel like I
was comforting a child. I can feel his pain from the sobs thats coming from him.
Me: Hey ok lang yan marami pang babae dyan. I know it sounds cliche pero marami pa dyan.
Paul: im sorry you must think im for boy crying.
Me: No, hey wanna go grab a donut? Di kasi ko nag kakape eh I dont drink coffee.
Paul: You dont even know me. Im sorry Im Paul by the way.
Me: Hi Im Zishel. Shel na lang or Zish.
Paul: Yun talaga name mo?
Me: Yah. ewan ko ba sa mga magulang ko. pag nag papakilala nga ako sinasabi sakin ung nursery rhyme na she sells sea shells from the sea
shore.
Paul: yah! yan din ung nasa isip ko eh.. hehehehe
I heard him laugh. As I look upon his face I can see his gwapo, with dimples pa.
Me: there i made you laugh, so tara wanna get out of here kasi parang ang ingay na ata natin dito eh.
Paul: Sure sige tara na.
We went to the nearest Krispy Kreme and sat there talking. I found out his working at Ortigas and his an engineer. So I asked about the girl.
Me: So wanna tell me whats that all about kanina. the girl leaving crying… talking might help you know.
Paul: She broke up with me, shes pregnant with some guy.
Me: ouch!!! im so sorry. but teka, you didnt ask if its yours?
Paul: malabo mangyari yun. I was away for 2 months kakabalik ko lang from australia.
Me: ah… oo nga malabo ngang mangyari un.
We were talking for about two hours straight na. Weve talk about almost everything from his relationship, and pati family nya kinuwento nya.
Paul: ako lang kwento ng kwento eh what about you? bakit ka nga pala nanonood ng sine mag isa wla ka bang bf?
Me: NAKU!! hindi pa ko nag kaka bf. ayaw ng mga lalaki sakin na iintimidate daw masyado daw akong mataray.
Paul: hindi ka naman ganun kataray eh. medyo pakielamera ka lang but not mataray. hahahahahahaha
Me: ay ganun.. bad mo naman.
Paul: Just kidding..
I was about to pinch his sides when i felt pain sa arms ko.
Me: ouch…
Paul: Oh my gosh, is that where i held you. Im so sorry. shit namumula sya. sorry talaga I didnt know what came over me to grab a lady like
that
I was touching my arm and I can tell mag papasa to tom.
Me: Its ok my fault like you said masyado akong pakielamera right?
Paul: no its not ok. sorry talaga. let me make it up to you. pwede ba kitang ihatid? please!!! im begging you gusto mo luhod pa ko d2 just for
you to say yes sakin eh. its the least i can do.
Me: ok fine sige. lets go na kasi we both have work pa tom.
As he drove me back home I saw pictures of her gf sa may dashboard ng car nya. parang feeling ko tuloy im invading her car andun pa rin sa
loob ng car nya ung cardigan nya.
Me: hmm nice car. although prang kotse ata ng babae to ha. kulang n lang kulay pink to sa sobrang dami ng gamit ng gf mo.
Paul: Itatapon ko na lahat yan. I dont want anything to remind me of her.
Me: wag naman. if you want you can give it away sa mga mahihirap. but dont throw it away. baka mamaya sige ka hanapin pa yan syo.
Paul: I dont give a shit I just want her out of my head and out of my heart.
I can sense his anger while saying those words.
Me: cheer up!! at least you met me di ba.
Paul: I dont know if thats a curse or a blessing eh. Still cant figure it out eh. hahahahahahaha.
Me: talaga namang trip mo kong asarin eh noh,
Asa tapat na kami ng house he got off and opens the door for me. Uy!! plus 1 sa pogi points nya,
Me: Thanks sa paghatid. It was fun in a way..
Paul: Ako nga dapat mag pasalamat eh. I honestly dont know what to do kung hindi ka pakielamera. hahahaha
Me: kanina mo pa ko inaasar ha, feeling close ka naman masyado!
Paul: I feel close to you na nga eh, but you know what. Im so very thankful tlga syo. Can i call you sometime or txt you?
Me: Sure cge ok lang.
We exchange numbers and I went straight to my room. I cant sleep, I was waiting for a txt coming from him. Sa isip isip ko, ano ba naman ito
of all naman ng paraan para mameet ang guy bat sa ganung paraan pa. But I admit I like his face. He reminds me of Josh Harnett with his
chinito eyes and dimples sa may lips. Haaayyyyy… Around 12mid my cp rang it was him
Paul: Hi, did i bother you? patulog ka na ba?
Me: Ah no actually di nga ako makatulog eh. I dont know why.
Paul: maybe becoz iniisip kita. Can we meet after office hours tom?
Me: ha? Sure sige dun na lang sa mall.
Paul: No ill pick you up na lang if thats ok with you?
Me: ah? ok sige. ill txt you the address goodnight.
Paul: goodnight and thanks again. sweet dreams.
My heart skip a bit!!! Para kong bata I can hear my heart beating grabe!! I cant wait for tom to come.
