THE CONFESSION

August 04, 2022- Sunday.

"Lo–cha—n. I have something to tell you….." (wind blows)

As Lochan is about to reply to Beauty, she holds Beauty's hand and says, "Beauty, yes, go ahead. It's okay."

Then Beauty said with confidence, "I hope to tell you this won't affect the relationship we have at this moment in our lives. (smiled) I just want to say that….. I have a crush on you. HEHE,"

Lochan's face was blushing but was not shocked after all because she already knew that Beauty has feelings for her. Her brother Lance told her about the matter. But the root was Johnny who first knew and who told Lochan's brother, Lance.

Lochan replied, "Re? Why me? I'm ugly, and don't know how to take care of someone like you." Beauty thinks Lochan is a humble person.

Then Beauty replied, "Don't say that! Love doesn't matter on looks and what I'm certain of is that I'm in love with you! I like you."

After Beauty uttered those words, an older woman suddenly came near them. Beauty and Lochan had been quiet for minutes because of the situation. They are afraid that the woman might hear their conversations. After some minutes, the woman suddenly asked them, "Why are both of you so serious? (laughed gently)" After hearing the question from the woman, Beauty and Lochan looked at each other and pushed each other to decide who should answer the woman. In the end, Beauty volunteered because Lochan kept on saying that she's a very shy-type person.

Beauty then replied to the woman, "We're just talking about an important issue ma'am (smiled)"

The woman quickly responded and said, "Haha okay, girls. By the way, why are you here?" This time, no pushing anymore between the two. Therefore, Beauty didn't hesitate to reply to the woman and said, "Actually ma'am, we came from the church and just got done attending a mass and we came here to unwind and breathe some fresh air."

Then the woman replied, "Ah… I see… (smiled)"

*After several minutes, the quietness between the two became the opposite as the pastors in the plaza were kind of having a debate about having a lot of Gods. Because some always say that there should only be one God that should be praised.

*After a couple of minutes, the woman left*

Then the two continued their conversation. They talked about their favorite songs, band, music group, and about their respective families, and so many more things. Beauty talked about her current situation wherein she is not with her parents for the meantime rather she is with her brother together with his daughter and wife while Lochan shared that she's with her parents and siblings, together with her auntie and her daughters. They also talked about the possibility of ending up together.

Beauty told Lochan about her desire to be her girlfriend/boyfriend and Lochan said that they should just wait for the right time and if they are destined for each other, then they are. Lochan said those while hugging Beauty with no awkwardness. Beauty felt like Lochan kissed her head but the truth is that Lochan just bumped her jaw into her head which makes it like kissing on Beauty's part.

The two also talked about their pasts in terms of broken relationships.

Beauty said, "You know what, you will be my first ever girlfriend if I will become your girlfriend. (laughed)"

Lochan responded, "(Laughed so hard) Really? Are you kidding?"

Then Beauty replied, "I'm telling the truth! I just got experience having multiple crushes and teases from friends, I was once asked to be their girlfriend but I said no. I don't know why! It's just kind of gross to me even If I like the person. HAHA Well, How about you? How many EXES?"

Lochan replied, "I consider my past relationships to be not serious, t'was puppy love haha you know what I mean? But I have 6 exes honestly, not to brag okay? Haha but yeah, 6."

Beauty responded, "Wow haha! I thought you were an introverted person? How come?"

Lochan replied, "They are the ones who made moves hahaha they are the ones who liked me! HAHA," Beauty then replied, "You are so feeler! HAHA, The wind is so strong!"

Lochan replied, "Honestly, I'm not proud at all. But I already forgot everything that happened in the past and I'm now focusing on the present. Let's just reflect on the mistakes of the past and the lessons they brought to us. (smiled)"

Beauty responded with a smile and said, ''Yeah, you are right."

And they talked and talked about more and more things. In between their conversation, Lochan's phone rang; someone was calling. Upon looking at the screen, she saw her father's name and looked at it for a few minutes because she was still deciding whether to answer the call or not because she was afraid of her father who is very strict with the time.

"Who's calling?" Beauty said.

"My father. (smiled) "Answer him. Hehe," Beauty replied.

Lochan answered the phone. "Yes, father? Her father replied, "Aren't you going home?"

Lochan replied, "Yes dad, don't worry. I'm coming home now. See you later."

Her father replied, "Alright then. See you and take care."

The call ended and the two of them then noticed that the sky was getting darker and that they should go home because it was already quarter to 7 pm.

*The two then walked towards the parking area and drove towards home. While driving, the two talked about the day.*

"Lochan, thank you so much for today. I appreciate your time."

Lochan replied, No problem, Beauty. Am also extremely happy to have time with you and also to be able to know you."

Then Beauty replied, "Likewise, Lochan. I'm hoping it's not our last together. I mean, I'm hoping we can still bond together for the days to come. I Will pray."

Lochan held Beauty's hand, and responded, "I will also." Beauty blushed and smiled at Lochan.

Minutes later, Lochan dropped off Beauty safely, and so Lochan got home also safe.
