A few months later, I finally decided. I called him for a decision I had made that I would not regret later.
After he confessed I was speechless. Honestly, I don't know what to say. The next morning he called me and I agreed to let him court me.
We don't have any bad attempts, do we?
I like him, yes but until then I just don't want to exceed the limit. I don't want to be in love until I just LIKE first.
While it lasts I'm falling for him. I said in my mind. Wrong to I'm just a young girl while she is 4 years away from me. He has matured, we are far from each other. He is in Manila and I am in the province. While I was talking to him online, he thought of talking to me then my CP rang So we had a video call.
"Hey so ahm. Can we meet?"
" I do not know "
"But why? I want to see you and be with you"
"You're far away Andrew. Honestly, you're in Manila, I'm in the province. It means we have no destination for our meet up"
"Ashley Perez nothing is impossible with the person you want to be with and see. Don't you want to see me and be with me?"
"What? No that's not what I mean. I mean very impossible I can't get you there. I'm very sure my parents won't let me."
"Ashley Who said you're going here? I'm going there :)"
"When?"
"I'll text you :) so no worries soon to be my girlfriend good night. I love you :) <3"
I didn't realize that the call was over. What I heard today is very confusing. Aggghhh I'm stressed.
"Nakk?" Mama shouted and said outside my room
"Yes poo?"
"Go to sleep, there's a class at 6:15 am tomorrow. Go to sleep. Goodnight."
"Yes mah, goodnight"
After my mom and I talked, I went to sleep. There are so many things actually that you do not process in the brain.
In the morning-- Fast forward
Daily routine, go to school, listen to a lecture. After the last subject in the morning, someone accompanied me. He became my friend only yesterday. So we went to the canteen. While we were in the canteen, my phone suddenly vibrated.
"Ahm Jess just wait ahh. I'll just answer this phone call. Buy me first too. Just wait for me outside"
"Oh ok."
"Thanks"
When I was outside I took my phone and looked at who the caller was.
"It's just Andrew.
Hello? Andrew why? I'm at school today. "
"Do you have a class?"
'' Yeah, but we have a 15-minute break now. So why were you called? "
"Are you free later after your class in the afternoon?"
"Yes but I still have materials to buy for school. Why?"
"Ah ok. Go to your church later before you buy your school materials."
"Why?"
"Just go."
"Okay. Gotta go bye." Then I hang up.
"Who are you talking to? '' - Jess
"Ah, my lover."
"Naks long hair teh !! Who is that? Is he here? Did he call you?"
"He's not here. He's in Manila."
"Ayy bad. Ldr you? Tsk, that's bad."
"Why is it bad? Besides, I haven't answered him yet ahh."
"Sometimes it's super-duper hard in Ldr."
"How hard is it?"
"It's hard for the guy you don't know what he's doing because he's far away. Maybe one day you just found out that you're being fooled. So girl I'm just advising you. For your relationship to last or if there will be. Trust is what it takes :) trust me girl just trust each other. Let's see if the tiger is already there. "
"Hahahaha you're crazy Jess."
"Oh well" once shrugged
"Will you buy materials later?"
"Ah, Yes, will you come? In case I go to church first before buying the things we need."
'' All right. We just met in the park. About 4:30 pm, it's just near our house. "
"Hmmm ok."
After class Jess and I met at the park. So we went straight to church.
"Ash what are we going to do here? Are you going to church?"
"No. Andrew told me to come here speaking of, my phone is ringing."
ON-CALL….
"Hello? Andrew? We're already here at church as you said."
"Wait, we? Are you with someone?"
"Ahh Yes"
"Oh, it's okay. Hmm, where are you?"
"We're close to the gate to the church entrance."
"Great, just wait for me there bye." Then he dropped the call without warning.
"Hey what? Hello? What the ?!" I shouted angrily
"Eyy Ash just calm down."
"Come on! It's annoying when the call goes down, who will be happy there?"
According to us, we walked into the church, and then we saw two guys.
The other one approached me
"Ahm hi? Ashely Perez? Right?"
"Yes? Why? Do I know you?" I raised an eyebrow
"It's Andrew. Your lover." I fainted suddenly.
'' What? Aren't you in Manila? What are you doing here? "
"Is that forbidden to go?"
"Ahm, it's not a case because ahh NVM (never mind) only."
"By the way, Kurt is my friend and Kurt is Ashley."
"Hi" shake hands at the same time, of course, I also shake hands.
"Hi too, Jess is my friend. I brought her here because we still have materials to buy ehh."
"We'll join you if it's okay with you?"
I turned to Jess.
"Jess, is that okay with you?"
"Ha? Ah Sure"
"So, come on," Andrew said
" Let's go. "
While Jess and I were shopping for school supplies, the other two were just following us. I stopped and thought Jess was shocked when I suddenly stopped and asked her a question.
"Oh, what's the matter, Ash? Did you forget something?"
"I just didn't think that maybe the two of us next to us are bored. I suggest that they just wait or they go to the place they want to go here in the mall first."
"You're right, it's still too late because we're here Ash at the mall. We still have a lot to buy so you better tell them or they'll come home to us first."
According to him, we walked over to the two of us to say that we still have a lot to buy and we can stand it.
"You Kurt? Are you okay with us leaving them?"
"Why do we leave with us and another one so that someone will bring your purchases." - KURT
"Yes, Kurt is right. We'll be together even until late at night."
"Thank you"
Hours passed and Jess and I finished as well. The two took us home for safe raw and we thank them for accompanying us.
