Thought So..
It was a few years back when I last celebrated a special day with someone - aside from birthdays, and alike. My guy is twenty-four years old. And I never expected someone as old as he is would even mind celebrating our first month as ‘US’. Hehe.. So I didn’t care much if it’s our first month. It quite surprised me, really that he kept on reminding me of that occassion. Hmm! I know he’s quite a sweet guy. And it causes that weird chemistry between his serious and naughty side.
It was April 2, 2008 when I first saw this guy open the door and walked his way to the table beside mine. ANd on that first day, I sensed there’s something in him that I should know because he caught my attention without any particular reason. I was just in my OJT those days, and I thought a new face in a crowd of twenty was not important to him in any way. Later in the afternoon, Dirk kidded him to give me a piece of his biscuit. And it went that way almost everyday. I didn’t mind if he notices me or not. He’s just the usual seriuos guy at work. For some reason, I was intimidated by my first impression of him.
It was May 26, 2008 (if I’m not mistaken) when the serious guy started having a chat with me while at work. He doesn’t usually do that at the office. Maybe it was because of a serious business (enrollment of his brother - excuses!!!). Two days later, we were already sending each other SMS. And the day after, had dinner together over a pizza and some salad. The serious guy evolved to someone quite surprising. He was, in fact, a sweet person after all.
I thought it was just the usual fling I used to have during the last couple of years of being single. And so I dated him for almost two months without any thought of making it serious. His 24th birthday came, and I was invited to give him a small surprise. JJ asked me how long we’ve been together. He was quite surprised to find out that there was no ‘US’.That night, I was asking myself why we’ve been acting like it’s ‘US’ when there’s no ‘US’ really. (to be continued…..)
