It was his 7-day mandatory leave from the office. And of course we promised that we would still see each other.
First was last tuesday, his mom invited me for dinner. Met his family for the second time and meeting for the first time his tita and his cousin from Germany. They were very accomodating. I was being myself with a little thread of being shy but most of the time it was my real self talking to his family... conversing anything thrown for a topic. And I was actually talking to all of them. I imagined myself being awkward and quiet but I was not. I think it was a very lovely night.
Second was yesterday, we had dinner at Saisaki. It was the usual yet sweet dinner. We were talking about work, promotion, bonus etc.
Me: Excited na ako sa bonus ko. Pambibili ko ng gamit sa bahay kapag lumipat na ako.
L: Ako nga noon walang bonus e.. Walang increase.
Me: Ha? Akala ko wala lang bonus. Di mo sinabi na yung increase din.
L: Deh pati increase wala. Kung hindi talaga dahil kina Ms. Che matagal na akong umalis. Nagdeputy supervisor ako ng Utilties at ako halos lahat nagturo ng mga processes tapos yung mga tinuruan ko sila pa may bonus.
Me: Di bale na... Isipin mo na lang may bawi si Lord sa'yo.
L. Oo, ikaw.
I smiled. I was so overwhelmed when he said those two words. What made it more romantic is the part where we were serious talking about work and bonuses and I didn't expect it would end that way... sweet and very romantic.
I told him it was the sweetest thing he said to me personally. The spontaneity of it was so perfect.
Thank you, L for those two days. I love to be always dated by you even sometimes it means it would be with your family. My love extends to them.
