I promised to write a blog during the Holiday break but I've been busy with lots of things to do, lots of events/reunions/parties to go to and more specially, lots of stuff to..arrange. My room needs a general cleaning. It has been re-painted and my things were scattered everywhere! Just look at that disaster.
Anyway, this post is not about how disorganized my room is. Haha!
Last Christmas Eve, boyfie stayed at our house. We ate, laughed, talked, and...cried. No, I didn't cry. He did. I was showing him my 'Treasure Box' - a box where I keep all my diaries, old letters, memorabilia, pictures and anything that is close to my heart. Haha, I'm sentimental like that. While digging through the box, I saw the letters my ex-boyfriend gave me. So, I asked him, "Do you really want to see and read this?". He said he was okay with it. And so he started reading the letter. I won't post here what's written in the letter but what I will share is something that I never thought will happen.
Halfway reading through the letter, I saw him teary-eyed. I was shocked by it and I asked him, "Hala, bat ka umiiyak?" And in a no-nonsense and with utmost sincerity, he replied "Wala lang. Nalungkot ako sa inyo. Kasi diba...akala mo minsan siya na.Tapos hindi pala. Nakakalungkot din...Minsan ganun talaga ang buhay. Pero sayang din pinagsamahan niyo..." I was too stunned for words. I never thought he would ever think of it as that. I mean (based on experience), most guys will never EVER feel compassion over their girl's past beau.
I said to him, "Awww. Baby. Well, ganun talaga. Natuwa naman ako sayo. Di ko akalain magiging ganyan reaction mo. Thank you for being my bestfriend!!! I love you!!!" to which he replied, "Oonaman baby. Syempre bestfriend din kita. And like what I always tell you - I don't meddle with the past. Okay lang sakin yung mga ganito. Kasi nangyari 'to wala pa ko sa buhay mo..." I was actually very much overwhelmed on the fact that he can be my best friend and how kindhearted he is.
I was really blessed to have someone who sincerely loves me - no ifs and buts. Everyday, I thank God for giving me such a wonderful boyfriend - both inside and out. He'd bully me, laugh at me and make fun of me, but at the end of the day, I know he deeply loves me.
So, to the bully guy who never fails to make me smile:
I love you! Thank you for being my best friend, partner, mentor, kuya, stress-reliever, jogging partner, inspiration, grammar-nazi and a whole lot more. Happy New Year!!!
