Oh No!

"San ba galing ang mga manyak na to?"

I wondered as I wrapped a towel around my waist. 

"So ano nga ulit name mo?", I asked.

"Jake...", you replied.

I laughed. 

"Jake lang?"

"Jake Vincent.", you clarifed.

"JV tawag sa kin ng mga barkada ko...", you continued

"Joke po ba ito?", I whispered as I rolled my eyes.

I wanted to believe what was going on but I think I have had enough of these games to last me a long time. 

"Tristan, may boyfriend ka ba?", I heard you ask.

My jaws dropped. I looked at you with plain amazement. 

"Wala."

"Pwede ka bang ligawan?"

I let out a hearty laugh. 

"Sorry tol, I don't do relationships.", I lied.

You seemed a bit surprised. 

"Ah bakit?", you asked.

"Ayoko lang..."

You looked disappointed. 

"Ok lang yan...", I assured you.

I tapped your shoulder with the hope that you'd understand. 

"Go get dressed. Libog lang yan...", I finally said.

"Sige na nga..."

Just as I was about to close the door, you came back. 

"Dinner? My treat.", you asked.

I laughed.

"Ang kulit!"

And I finally said yes.
