So what has been happening to me lately? In terms of EPH, I've submitted my last set of articles around quarter to 6pm before heading over to see my boyfriend. We walked all the way from Buendia to Glorietta and there had a nice dinner at Shakey's Pizza Parlor. It was fun because not only was our waitress really giddy and nice, but I had an ice cream bar bonanza that made him and I shiver till we got out of the restaurant. And surprisingly, the bill didn't go up to P1000 at all! I made sure to put a tab in my memory to come here if I wanted pizza but save money as well. After buying vitamin Cs and Strepsils to prepare ourselves for any chance of flu or cough, we road a taxi heading back to Vito Cruz and there, I felt something that made me believe that true love does exist.
During the time that Mom came over to visit (Jamie was still on her way from Mall of Asia), we talked about how one would know that the person he or she is with right now is the one. I always thought that you can never tell or feel if he is the one for you, but Mama always had an answer. She said, "You will know that you two are meant for each other if you can be happy and at peace with one another, even if you don't say anything at all. If you feel that you belong to one another, then you are meant for each other." Kind of idealistic, but last night, I did feel that feeling while on the taxi going home with Jayson. We just sat there together, his arm around me while my head was resting on his chest. I gazed at his arms, listened to his heartbeat, and even glanced at how he positioned his legs. And all I felt was peace. I was actually happy, truly happy, for the first time since my horrible break up, and that alone convinced me that I had to do everything in my will to keep our love strong and long-lasting.
We didn't speak, we didn't even kiss or do anything. Jayson and I were just sitting there beside one another and we were happy. I kept telling myself, "If only this could last for a lifetime. If only this moment would never end." Do you get that feeling sometimes? Honestly, I always found that kind of feeling too rare to comprehend, but now I know it is real.
