Luke Andrei's POV

Woohoo!!! Ganda talaga ng buong isang Linggo ko dahil finally she's my girl again, but since a hectic work load has occur, naging busy kami parehas, tukso ang trabaho eh kaya ngayon lang kami officially mag dedate as a couple again, daming ganap eh, since biglaan tong date na ito, sa mall muna kami magagala, susunduin ko na si Cai..

After minutes of drive...

Cai's Apartment unit..

"Hi!!" sabay beso sa akin ni Cai

"Ready for our first date?" tanong ko sa kanya

"Eh parang lagi lagi naman tayong nagdedate ah?" she said

"Nanliligaw pa lang ako nung mga panahong yun, tsaka iba na ngayon, official na di ba?" say ko sa kanya

"Ah akala ko kasi counted na yun di pa pala so ano saan tayo Engr.?" tanong nya sa akin

"Since, biglaang date to at di ako nakapagpabook ng resto so sa mall na lang muna tayo okay lang ba?" tanong ko sa kanya

"Okay, kahit saan pa yan basta kasama ka okay ako!" say nya sa akin

"Yes!! Thats my Girl!!" sambit ko sa kanya, and I carefully open the door of the car to assist her sa pag upo sa passenger sit

"Gentleman talaga eh noh?" asar nya sa akin

"Matagal na akong gentleman, pero sayo lang!" kindat ko sa kanya

On our way to the Mall...

"Patunog ka naman ng music dyan, para di naman tahimik ang biyahe natin!" suggest ni Cai

"Your wish is my command!" I play the music and here goes

"Crawl"
(Chris Brown)

Everybody sees it's you
I'm the one that lost the view
Everybody says we're through
I hope you haven't said it too

So where do we go from here
With all this fear in our eyes
And where can love take us now
We've been so far down
We can still touch the sky

If we crawl
'Til we can walk again
Then we'll run
Until we're strong enough to jump
Then we'll fly
Until there is no winds
So let's crawl, crawl, crawl
Back to love, back to love

Why did I change the pace
Hearts were never meant to race
Always felt the need for space
And now I can't reach your face (your face)

So where are you standing now
Are you in the crowd of my faults
Love, can't you see my hand?
I need one more chance
We can still have it all

So we'll crawl (if we crawl)
'Til we can walk again
Then we'll run (then we'll run)
Until we're strong enough to jump
Then we'll fly
Until there is no winds
So let's crawl, crawl, crawl
Back to love, back to love

Everybody sees it's you
Well I never wanna lose that view

So we'll crawl (if we crawl)
'Til we can walk again
Then we'll run, we run
Until we're strong enough to jump
Then we'll fly
Until there is no winds
So let's crawl, crawl, crawl

So we'll crawl
'Til we can walk again ('til we can walk again)
Then we'll run (we'll run)
Until we're strong enough to jump (until we're strong enough to jump)
Then we'll fly
Until there is no winds
So let's crawl, let's crawl, let's crawl
Back to love

"Kahit sa music mo pala ang baduy mo pa rin!" natatawang sabi sa akin ni Cai

"Oh bakit? Yan yung mga songs na nasa playlist ko.." say ko

"Sabi ko nga, kaya pala mga kinakanta mo sa akin kung di The Script songs, Jason Mraz then now Chris Brown, napaka emo talaga ng boyfriend ko!" since the word boyfriend comes to her mouth, di ako naiinis, ang sarap sa feeling na tawagin ka ulit na boyfriend

"Talagang emo, emotionally in love sayo!" pumick up lines na ako sa kanya

"Pumipick up lines ka na ngayon ah!" she said to me

"Lahat ng kabaduyan na alam kong matatawa ka at mapapangiti ka gagawin ko, just to see that beautiful smile of yours!" I said to her

"Alam mo ikaw, malala ka na sa kabaduyan!" she laugh at me

"Malala na talaga sa pagkafall sayo!" bumanat pa ako ng isa

"Alam ko na yang banat mo eh, may kapalit yan, kilala kita!" say ni Cai sa akin

"Mamaya na lang ang kapalit dahil ienjoy muna natin ang Mall date natin!" I said to her and she just smiled and nod at me

At the Mall...

Fastfood...

"Namiss kong kumain sa fastfood, di kasi katulad nung mga nakaraan buwan puro sa mamahaling restaurant mo lagi ako dinadala, di ka ba nauubusan ng pera ah?" tanong nya sa akin habang nakain kami sa isang Fastfood

"Sakto lang naman yung budget ko sa mga book restaurant na pinagdadalhan ko sayo, since biglaan nga tong date natin dahil naging busy tayo pareho sa work natin kaya dito muna tayo maglunch okay ba?" sambit ko sa kanya

"Mas sanay kasi ako sa mga gantong simpleng bagay eh, yung mga fastfood basta kasama ang importanteng tao sa buhay ko!" she said

"Asus!! Ikaw ah!! emotera ka narin ah!!" sabay kurot ko sa ilong nya

"Aray!! Umpisa ka na naman ah!" abay gumanti rin ng isa this time diniinan nya ang pagkurot sa ilong ko

"Aray!!! Mas masakit yun ah!" tinawanan nya lang ako habang hinihimas ko ang nakurot kong ilong

"Masakit ba?" nanukso pa

"Kailangan ng gamot nito?" sabi ko sa kanya

"Ano naman yun?" tanong nya sa akin

"Kiss.." say ko ng mahina pero narinig pala

"Hoy, narinig ko yun, anong kiss ka dyan? nakakarami ka na ah! aba sinasabi ko sayo, limited edition ang mga ganong bagay.." paliwanag nya sa akin

"Okay fine, di naman ako mapilit sa ganyan at alam ko naman na kahit tayo na ulit, dalagang filipina ka pa rin pag dating sa mga ganyang bagay, I know and I respect that, alam kong matatagalan ulit bago mangyari ulit yun!" depensa ko sa kanya

"Salamat, at kahit tayo na ulit, you respect my decision and I trust you!" she said sweetly to me

"Sabi nga ng mommy ko, ang babae dapat nirerespeto, na kahit kayo na, you must learn your limitation and learn to value and respect your partners decision and syempre sabi rin ni mommy, wag na wag mong sasaktan ang feelings na isang babae, dahil bilang babae sobrang sakit para sa part nya ang iwan at baliwalain ng lalaking mahal na mahal nya!" kwento ko kay Cai

"Eh di ba nagkahiwalay tayo noon, sobrang nasaktan kaya ako non!" sabi nya sa akin

"Kaya nga bumabawi ako sayo for the lost time tsaka wala naman akong ibang dinate noong nagkahiwalay tayo.." depensa ko

"Naiintindihan naman kita, kaya we are both here for a second chance to start all over again, pero di pa rin maiiwasan maisip yung nangyari sa nakaraan!" she explains to me

"I respect that, pero sana --" I hold her hand

"Sana?" she asked

"Lets both start new memories okay? Kahit alam kong mahirap kalimutan ang nakaraan, I will not force you forget it in an instance, take your time and so do I, I will also take my time to heal those past wounds, We can both do it okay?" I said to her

"Okay.." she simply said

"Alam mo tapusin na natin kumain dahil mag aarcade pa tayo.." I said

"Arcade!!!?" she said excitedly

"Yup, kaya tapusin na natin kumain dahil may arcade date tayong gagawin okay ba?" say ko sa kanya

"Sure!!" she smiled

After our lunch...

Diretso na kami sa arcade to play...

"Anong gusto mong laruin?" tanong ko kay Cai

"Basketball muna tayo!" sabay kapit sa akin ni Cai, naglalambing tong babaeng ito sa akin

"Lalaki ka ba? Bakit basketball ang gusto mo?" tanong ko sa kanya

"Bakit ba!? Sa gusto kong maglaro ng basketball, di ba MVP ka nung high school?" tanong sa akin ni  Cai

"Oo, kaso matagal na yun, tsaka di na rin ako masyadong makapaglaro ng basketball ngayon eh!" paliwanag ko kay Cai

"Arte nito, pa humble ka pa mabuti pa tara na ng marami tayong malaro dito!" sabay hila sa akin ni Cai papunta sa bilihan ng token

Nag umpisa na kaming maglaro ng basketball, as usual tira lang ng tira si Cai, dahil halos lahat ng tira nya ay sumasablay, tinuruan ko sya kung paano ang stroke para pumasok ang tira

"Alam mo ganto lang yan eh!" hinawakan ko ang parehong kamay nya at inanggulo ko kung ano ang saktong stroke ng tira then ayun, pumasok tuwang tuwa si Cai

"Ang galing! Sabi ko na nga ba magaling ka pa rin tumira eh!!" ngiting sabi nya sa akin

"Wala yun, kaya ganon dapat ang angle ng pagtira okay?" say ko sa kanya at nagpatuloy na kami sa paglalaro

After ng ilang mga games, last game namin sa arcade ang dreamcatcher...

"Kaya mo pa bang makahuli ng stuff toys dyan?" tanong nya sa akin

"Oo naman! Tatlo pa gusto mo eh para I Love You!!" pagmamalaki ko sa kanya

"Yabang mo talaga! Sige nga! matesting ang kayabangan mo!" natatawang sambit nya sa akin

"Oh hah!! Kapag nakuha ko ng tatlo stuff toys kailangan may premyo ako okay ba?" condition ko kay Cai

"Anong premyo naman yan?" nalilisik ang tingin sa akin ni Cai

"Alam mo na yun! Tsaka isa lang naman!" say ko sa kanya taas ng ngiti ko eh

"Ok sige! pero sa cheeks lang!" say nya sa akin

"Ay!?" reklamo ko

"May angal ka!?" tanong nya sa akin

"Wala po!! Eto na po!!" nag start na akong manghuli ng Hello Kitty Stuff toys

After a couple of minutes...

"Yes!!! Nakatatlo ako!! Paano ba yan? Premyo ko?" ngisi kong sabi kay Cai, habang bitbit nya ang tatlong Hello Kitty Stuff Toys

"Fine!!" she gave me a quick kiss on my cheek

"Happy?" I asked her as we headed to the parking lot, hapon na rin kasi kailangan ng umuwi

"Super!!" she said as we about to get inside the car

"Glad to hear that, so anong ipapangalan mo dyan sa gift ko for you?" tanong ko sa kanya

"Iza, Lovely and Youri!!" sambit ni Cai sa akin

"Wow!! parang I Love You lang ah!" biro ko sa kanya

"Di ah -- *napaisip* Oo nga noh!! Gusto mo naman!?" tanong sa akin ni Cai

"Oo naman!! Like na like!!" masayang sabi ko sa kanya

"Yan tayo eh!!" sabi nya sa akin

"Para its a tie tayo ikaw naman mag patugtog ng gusto mong song!" say ko sa kanya

"Sige hah? Wait hanapin ko ang gusto kong song!" sabay browse nya sa playlist nya

"I'd Lie" - Taylor Swift

I don't think that passenger seat
Has ever looked this good to me
He tells me about his nights
And I count the colors in his eyes

He'll never fall in love he swears
As he runs his fingers through his hair
I'm laughing 'cause I hope he's wrong

And I don't think it ever crossed his mind
He tells a joke, I fake a smile
But I know all his favorite songs

And I could tell you his favorite color's green
He loves to argue, born on the seventeenth
His sister's beautiful, he has his father's eyes
And if you asked me if I love him,
I'd lie

He looks around the room
Innocently overlooks the truth
Shouldn't a light go on?
Doesn't he know that I've had him memorized for so long?

He sees everything black and white
Never let nobody see him cry
I don't let nobody see me wishing he was mine

I could tell you his favorite color's green
He loves to argue, born on the seventeenth
His sister's beautiful, he has his father's eyes
And if you asked me if I love him,
I'd lie

He stands there, then walks away
My God, if I could only say,
"I'm holding every breath for you."

He'd never tell you, but he can play guitar
I think he can see through everything but my heart
First thought when I wake up
Is "My God, he's beautiful."
So I put on my make-up
And pray for a miracle

Yes, I could tell you his favorite color's green
He loves to argue, oh, and it kills me
His sister's beautiful, he has his father's eyes
And if you asked me if I love him
If you asked me if I love him
I'd lie

We drive safely with a new memories that we will surely remember!
