Q POV
Ilang minuto kaming tahimik at magkayakap. Dinadama ang isa't isa.
I moved first to loosen our hug. Sinuklay ko ang buhok niya gamit ang mga kamay ko. Inilayo sa mukha niya ang ilang hibla ng buhok na sumasagabal. I tucked the side of his hair behind his ear, showing me his handsome face.
I gently put my hands on his jaw. Ramdam ko ang mabigat niyang paninitig. Mahinhin kong hinahaplos ang magkabilang pisngi niya habang pinagmamasdan mabuti ang gwapo niyang mukha. From his clear forehead, thick eyebrows, long eyelashes, his green tantalizing but sometimes intimidating eyes, his pointed nose, and his pretty soft red heart shaped lips.
Nagtama ang mga mata namin. I let myself be drowned by his stares. My heart is losing its sanity. Hindi ito makalma.
"I love you." I whispered. I love this man so much. Ngayong nalaman kong mahal niya rin ako. Hindi ko na mapipigilan ang sarili kong ipadama sa kan

Q POV "You were there?" Gulat kong tanong. Akala ko wala siya sa school noon. Si Gina lang ang kasama ko at sa kanya ako nag-iiyak at kumuha ng lakas. Akala ko walang paki si Nicholas sa nangyayari noon. Nakita ko nalang siya noong nasabi ko na sa lahat ang tungkol sa relasyon namin ni Trev. Hiniga niya ulit ako at siya na lang ang umahon sa pagkakahiga, itinukod ang siko sa unan. "Gustong-gusto kong lapitan ka. I wanted to comfort you, console you and ease your fear, but I know I will only make it worse if they've seen me near you. Pinigilan kong lapitan ka. Tiniis kita." He's gently caressing my hair while softly talking to me. Hindi niya alam kung gaano ako nahihirapan noong panahon na iyon. Hinahanap ko siya, kailangan ko ng tulong niya. Akala ko pinabayaan niya lang ako pero hindi pala. Mabuti nga siguro na hindi niya ako nilapitan dahil mas lalo lang silang mapapanawila na meron ngang namamagitan sa'min.
Q POV "Well, I imagine our baby calling me Dada or Daddy. But I also missed you teasing me with your endearment 'Daddy' to me." "Why? Do you like it when I call you Daddy?" "I like it but I love hearing you call me baby. And call me Kalle again, I don't like it when you call me just Nicholas." Tampo niyang sabi. Natawa ako. Aasarin ko pa sana siya kaso natatakam na ako sa amoy ng niluto niya kaya hindi ko na inasar pa. "Alright, baby." I said sweetly "Love that." He said with a wide, bright handsome smile. Lumayo ako ng bahagya sa kanya at tinignan ang buong katawan. "Why are you not wearing shirt?" Tanong ko. Napatingin siya sa may dibdib niya kung saan sumisilip ang isang utong niya. He gave me a smirk, inirapan ko naman saka inayos iyon para matakpan ang utong niya. "It might get stained, I only have one spare shirt left." Tumango ako, wala siyang
Q POV "Why we did we stop here?" I asked when I noticed he stopped the car and parked. Dito ba kami magdi-date? This is really a public space, though konti lang ang tao ngayon na nandito. "Reminds me of the days we secretly spend some time together. Watching the sun and eating food delivery." Aniya. Napangiti ako. Noong bago kami nagbakasyon dalawa, naalala kong dito kami nagkikita. This is our meeting place, bukod sa condo at office niya. Tabing daan ito, it have a nice view of the sun and cold wind. Uupo lang kami sa hood ng kotse niya or sa cement barricade. "Let's watch the sunset together." He said serious. Matagal ko siyang tinignan, binabasa ang mga mata niya. I can see that he have something going on in his head. Kahit na napagkasunduan naming magtanan nalang kapag hindi payag ang mga magulang namin, alam kong kabado siya at nangangamba. Alam kong takot din siya sa kung
Q POV "No. That's hot, and surely gonna be amazing, but no. I won't let you do that, you don't have to do that." Imbis na mainis o magalit, nasiyahan ako sa sinabi niya. Damn this man! Kahit na gusto ko siyang tikman, his respect for me makes me don't wanna do it too, and gave me respect for my self even more. "Sayang." I joked. Tumawa siya. "Go back to your seat, baby." He said softly and lift me up a bit. Gagapang na sana ulit ako pabalik pero pinigilan niya ako. nagtaka ako doon pero napangiti din kaagad. "But give me one more kiss." sambit niya saka ako hinila para sa isa halik. Pagkatapos no'n ay umalis na ako sa kandungan niya at itinuloy na ang biyahe. "Where are we headed to?" I asked but again, he didn't answer. Gumalaw lang ang kamay niyang nakahawak sa hita ko. Imbis na mainis ako sa hindi niya pagsagot ay naexcite pa ako. May pa surprise surprise kapang nalalaman, ha? Pinagma
Q POV "Kinukuha niya order natin malamang titingin siya." "I'm a man, I know that kind of look." Aniya. Bumuntong hininga nalang ako at hindi na pinahaba ang usapan. Baka akala niya pinagtatanggol ko ang waiter na 'yon masira pa ang date namin. "Okay, okay. Hayaan mo na, huwag ka na mainis. Sabi mo nga diba? Hanggang tingin lang sila." Sambit ko sa kanya. He sighed, then I felt his hand on my back. Naaalala ko ang mga panahong nag-aaway pa kami dahil kay Will. Noon pa man seloso na talaga ito. "Nag-aaway kayo?" anang boses na kilala ko. Napaigtad ako sa gulat at bilog ang matang napatingin sa lalaking nagsalita na ngayon ay preskong umupo sa harapan namin. "Trev?!" Gulat kong tanong, lumingon ako kay Kalle at mukhang alam na magagawi dito ang kapatid. "Anong ginagawa mo dito?" Tanong ko at nagmasid sa paligid, tinitignan kung may kakilala ba ako na baka kasama ni Trev
Q POV "Pero baka hindi. I had my check up." Malungkot kong sabi saka napayuko pinagmasdan ang kamay niya sa hita ko. We only heard one heartbeat, we're not having twins. Naramdaman ko ang pagpisil niya sa hita ko. "It's okay. We'll try to have twins next time." I heard him said. Nanlalaking matang tumingin ako sa kanya, nakangisi ang loko. "Now you're opening that up." Pilyang sabi ko. Kanina lang pinipigil niya akong magjoke tungkol sa ganon. "It's not that bold as yours." Defend niya. Natawa ako. "We might work it out if we're gonna do something tonight, we might have twins." I said playfully, I even touched his chest. Sinuway niya kaagad ang kamay ko. "There you go again. I shouldn't have said that. You're being naughty again."Problemado niyang sabi. He pinched the brigde of his nose and closed his eyes tightly. Lalo akong natawa. "We'll get you check again. Find a
Q POV Nagulo na ng kaunti ang ayos ng buhok niya pero mag gumwapo siya dahil sa style na 'yon. May lukot na din ang pulo niya at nakabukas ang ilang butones. "May hindi ako natanong kay Doc." Sambit ko. Gumalaw ang kilay niya at napalitan ng pag-aalala ang emosyon. "What is it? How are you feeling? You don't feel good?" Sunod-sunod na tanong niya. Napangiti ako, he's worried again. Kinuha ko ang kamay niyang nasa hita ko. Pinagsiklop ko ang kamay namin. "Hindi ko natanong kung pwede pa ba tayong mag-ano," pabitin kong sabi, nangingisi na sa kalokohan. Kumunot ang kilay niya at mukhang nag-iisip. Lumingon siya sakin, lito ang mukha. He saw me smirking. Ilang segundo akong tinitigan, pinigilan kong matawa pero alam kong napansin niya, that's when he knew what I'm referring to. "You're at it again." Umiiling at nangingiting sabi niya. "What?" Tumatawa kong tanong. "B
Q POV We ate the corndog and finished our drinks before we went back near the stage. Nang magumpisa ng tumugtog ang banda na hindi ko kilala ay dumami lalo ang mga tao. I didn't know na may ganito dito. Or ngayon lang talaga? "Do you know someone from the band?" I asked to Kalle. "Yeah. You know him too." Sagot niya. Napakunot ako ng noo. "Sino?" Hindi niya ako sinagot at nginitian lang. "Sino nga?" Tanong ko ulit, tumuro siya sa stage kaya sinundan ko kung sino tinuturo niya. Hindi ko naman makilala kung sino iyon dahil may kalayuan at nakakapanlabo ng mata ang mga pailaw. Hindi na lang ako nangulit kung sino ba 'yon. But his figure is kind of familiar. They started playing, napangiti kaagad ako ng mahulaan ang kanta. "Ain't never felt this way." "Damn! He's good!" Hindi ko napigilan ma
"Now for the throwing of bouquet!" Announced the emcee. Napangisi ako. Bukod sa maon ceremony which is ang pagkakasal sa amin ni Kalle ay ito ang pangalawang pinakahihintay ko at pinaka excited ako. "Pumila ang mga single baka sakali magkajowa pagnasalo!" Rinig kong maingay na sigaw ni Gina. Wala talaga hiya sa katawan ang babaeng ito. Umiling akong natatawa sa kanya. I searched for the one girl, who's very important for this part. "There you are." Bulong ko sa sarili ko ay napangiti lalo nang makita na ang hinahanap ko. Laughing shyly, her tiny moves, standing in front of her seat. Not taking any steps to join the game. Hindi yan makikisali kahit na pilitin. Sumali man siya o hindi, salo na niya ang bouquet. "Who's next?! Sino ang susunod na ikakasal?" Said the emcee very lively. Then they started counting. Tumalikod ako pero wala naman talagang balak itapon ang bulaklak.
Full moon, bedroom, stars in your eyes.Last night the first time that I realized.The glow between us, felt so right.We sat on the edge of the bed and you said."I never knew that I could feel this way"Love today can be so difficultBut what we have I know is different'Cause when I'm with you the world stops turning Could I love you any more?Could I love you any more?Could I love you any more?

Every day of every hour of every minute, the more I get to know him, the deeper I fall. I will never get out of this hole. This deep hole in my heart filled with love for him. For all the challenges we've faced. There are people who tried to ruin our love for each other. For
Q POV "You are the only perfect woman for me." He said softly and planted a kiss on my forehead. Nabawasan ang pangamba ko pero may mga tanong parin sa isip ko. "Jane was your fiancee before. They like her for you. Magkaiba kami ni Jane." "She was my fiancee because my family know her family. It was just an agreement between our families. I did not chose her for me. And yes, you two are different from each other. I'm in love with you. And Jane is just a friend for me. Ikaw ang gusto kong pakasalan." "What about your parents? Do they like me?" "They will. They do." "Nakilala nila ako as Trevs fiancee. Ano nalang ang iisipin nila sa akin? Tinago ko na may relasyon tayong dalawa. Tapos buntis na kaagad ako. Baka isipin nila malandi ako–" "Hindi sila gano'n mag-isip. And I already explained everything to them. Sinabi ko na na may relasyon na tayo bago pa kayo magkakilala ni Trev
Napangiti ako nang maaalala ang pag-uusap namin kanina ni ama.Nagkausap kami kanina, kaming dalawa lang. Wala si Kalle wala sina Mom "Do you really want to marry him?" He asked, still looking stern while staring at our garden. "Yes, father." I answered certain. Kahit alam kong payag na siyang ikasala kami ni Kalle ay kinabahan parin ako nang tawagin niya ako para mag-usap kaming dalawa. "Will you be happy with him?" He asked, this time staring in my eyes. Bigla nalang akong naiyak. Suddenly, I don't see the strict father I grew up with. The man I see in front me, have soft eyes, gentle face and modest tone. "Opo." Umiiyak ko ng sabi. He nod lightly and looked side way. I saw how his eyes sparkled because of forming tears? "Then I have no reason to oppose." Tuluyan na akong naiyak. "Father," My voice cracked. He looked at me softly. His lips stretch forming a s
"I can talk to my parents, Sir. If you will let me marry your daughter I can–" he cut him off. "What about the family of Jane? Isn't she your fiancee?" "I'll talk to her parents." "Do you think I will let you marry my daughter?" "Sir, I love your daughter." "Does my daughter love you too?" Nicholas tongue was cut off by that question. "Does she love me?" Nicholas asked to himself inside his mind. He isn't sure. He doesn't know. "No answer?" Nanunuyang tanong ni Marius sa binata. Nicholas is staring at the floor. Thinking deeply if Quiva does love him. Hindi pa nila sinasahi ang totoong nararamdaman sa isat isa. He is not sure if Quiva loves him too. If she's ready to be in a serious relationship with him.If she's ready to be in a relationship again. "You don't have the answer?" Sambit ni Mariu
Q POV "Kalle?" I called him. May naaalala ako sa usapan nila kanina. "Hmm?" Sagot niya. "You talked to my father before?" Hindi siya kaagad sumagot at dama ko ang kabog ng puso niya kaya inangat ko ang ulo ko at tinitigan siya. He licked his lips and gulp. "Yes." He answered. Ako naman ang kumabog ang puso ngayon. "When? Why didn't you tell me? What did you two talked about?" Sunod sunod kong tanong. He was about to answer my questions but we both heard the footsteps coming from the kitchen towards us. "Krist? What are you doing here?" I asked surprised when I saw him walking out of the kitchen. Mas lalo akong nagtaka nang makitang sanay na sa presensya niya ang mga kasama ko. I glance at Kalle, nagtataka din siya. *** Third Person POV
Q POV "I will not runaway." He said again this time looking at me, apologizing through his eyes. Tuluyan ng tumukas ang mga luha ko. "W-what?" My voice cracked. Parang binibiyak ang puso ko sa nangyayari ngayon. Hindi niya ako pinili? He's not going to runaway with me because my father will imprison him? Sumakit ang puso ko. Yes, I don't want him to be imprisoned, but I don't want him to not choose me! Gagawa ako ng paraan para hindi siya makulong, pero ano pang use non? Bakit pa ako gagawa ng paraan kung ganitong hindi niya ako pipiliin? "If I have to be imprisoned, I'm willing to turn my self in, Sir. It's better than losing your daughter. I will not leave your daughter, Sir. Kahit pa ipakulong niyo ako. I will still choose her." When I heard him say that. I started sobbing. Kalle immediately went back to my side to stop me from crying. Akala ko hindi niya ako pipiliin. Akala ko iiwan na niya a
Q POV Looking at our living room, I suddenly remembered the day I nearly begged to my father just to make him say the name of the man he wants me to marry. And how my world nearly collapsed after finding out the surname of my fiance. He only said Morton, nothing more, then piece by piece, I slowly knew who's he referring to. It was Trevor, I didn't tell Kalle about it. I kept it from him afraid I might lose him. That's what I'm feeling right now again. I'm so afraid I might lose him, but I have to be brave. I have to be brave for me not to lose him. My heart beat doubled when I saw my father and mom walking down the stairs, going to our direction. Nakaupo kami ngayon sa sofa dito sa sala. When we came here ate immediately went to the kitchen. Hindi ko alam anong ginawa doon, nasa taas naman pala sina Mom. Nakahinga ako ng maluwag nang lumabas na doon si ate. She gave me a signal to calm down and take this easy.&n
Q POV "So it's true." He said stiff. Napalunok ako ng laway. "Are you planning to runaway?" He asked. Not removing his eyes on Kalle, hindi man lang ako tinatapunan ng tingin. I feel more nervous for Kalle than for myself. "Yes." Matapang kong sagot. I successfully turned his eyes on me. Pero nangangatog parin ang tuhod ko kahit gaano ko subukan maging matapang. Its my father and he is with his men and also ate at his back na visible ang kaba para sakin. She's giving me sign not to be stubborn, binalewala ko iyon. "You're trying to escape from me..." I thought he's saying that to me pero kumabog ang puso ko ng may katuglong iyon. "Nicholas." He said firmly to his name. Mas hinigpitan ko ang hawak sa kamay ni Kalle. "I thought you're a decent man-"I cut my fathers off. "He is!" I said strong, anger building up. He's starting to judge Kalle. He's going to make him
