I always tell Marion I don't want him spending that much on Valentines. I'm not the type who would demand (I sometimes hint, but not demand hihi) him to do this, bring me to this place, give me that et cetera. Yes, I think it's every girls dream to be treated like a princess BUT not just only on V-day but everyday as well. But maybe, V-day is just an exception to be cheesier. For the years we've been together, we never celebrated Valentines in a very grand manner. The first time we celebrated it as a couple...it was well... a flop ordinary. Hahaha! But looking back, we'll just laugh about it. Don't want to go into details about it and let alone it be charged to experience. Last year was sort of an improvement from Valentines 2013. And I've realized more than ever... I'm one lucky girl. Hihi *imagine my round eyes turning to heart-shaped*
I'm writing this blog so I can let him read this and note on the very important points -- the mundane things he should consider in order for him to execute a perfect "surprise" for me. Hahaha!
This is our Valentines 2015 story:
Since the start of February, he has been staying at his uncle's condominium unit at Cubao. This made his life a little bit easier and convenient considering he lives at Bulacan which is 2-3 hours away from Makati. I have classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays, hence on February 12, he waited for me finish my class and we went home together. We took a bus home and he alighted at Cubao, gave him a stern reminder that went like this: "Baby, pagdating mo sa condo, magritwal ka na ha. Para sakto paguwi ko sa bahay, tapos ka na. Tutulog na tayo agad". He has these habits before sleeping which made me sometimes always think na mas babae pa siya sakin. When I got home, I immediately cleaned up and texted him, "Baby you may call me now. Let's sleep na. I'm soooo tired" to which I got a reply "Wait lang baby. May ginagawa pa ko". So I waited for about 15 minutes and called him. He rejected my call and I'm actually getting impatient -- tired and sleepy is an understatement. I texted him again, "Baby, ano pa bang ginagawa mo? Can I sleep na? Di ko na talaga kaya. Just text me if matutulog ka na. I love you". His reply is "Wait lang baby. Umiinom pa ko ng tea". I was about to snap when he called and told me that he's about to sleep as well. I was actually bordering to being mad and exhausted and he was cheering me up, apologetic for taking too long to call. I told him, "Baby naman sinabi ko na mag-ayos ka na agad diba pagdating mo ng condo para paguwi ko tutulog na tayo. Alam mo naman na mabilis ako kumilos. Sorry, antok na antok lang ako at maaga pa ko tomorrow. Sorry nayamot lang din ako. I love you". We both said sorry and I felt bad that we had to end the night that way.
The next morning (February 13), he called me at 6:30. My irritation from last night already gone and we were both exchanging our morning greetings. This is how our conversation went:
Me: Good morning baby!!
M: Good morning din baby!!
Me: Kakagising mo lang? Paalis na ko bahay.
M: Yup, kakagising ko lang.
Me: Sorry kagabi, sobrang pagod lang. Ang saya ng buhay mo ah porket sa Cubao ka umuuwi ngayon, 6:30 ka na gumigising.
M: Okay lang baby wala yun. Haha oo nga baby ang saya pag malapit lang ang bahay. Nakukumpleto ko yung tulog ko. Di ko kelangan gumising ng maaga.
** heard roosters crowing at the background**
Me: Ano yun baby? Bat may manok?
M: *laughing histerically*
**heard roosters crowing again**
Me: Nasan ka??? Bat may manok sa condo??
M: *still laughing and choking at the same time* Ba..byyy.. isusurprise kasi sana kita.
Me: So nasa bahay ka? Umuwi ka sainyo? di ka papasok ngayon?
M: Papasok.
Me: Wehhh. Hahaha susunduin mo ba ko mamaya? Yey!
M: Di ah. Papasok ako.
Me: Okay push mo yan. Patahimikin mo yang mga manok sa background. Hahaha! Laters baby. Paalis na ko house. I love you.
M: I love you too.
At 8:30AM he sent a SMS to check on me if I'm already in the office. I replied, "Bat di ka tumatawag? Maingay pa ba ang mga manok sa background? Nasan ka na?" He insisted that he was at the office and he'll be having a meeting in a few minutes. I pretended that I believed in him. At 6PM, he called me and asked me what time I'll be going home. I asked him, "Nasan ka na ba baby? EDSA ka na ba?" He replied, "No, paalis na ko ng office." He picked me up after work and when I got inside the car I said, "Magpaliwanag ka. Bat may manok sa background kanina? Hahaha!". He said, "Huhu baby fail. sinira ng manok ang surprise ko sayo."
I later found out that he was on leave and he wanted to personally deliver the roses at our office. But because I already half-knew that he was just at home and he has a surprise for me, he just revised his plan -- he just went to our house to deliver roses for my mom, tita and cousins before picking me up. I was actually teary-eyed and overwhelmed with the sweet gesture -- felt guilty at the same time for being irritated at him the night before for not calling asap. I realized that the reason why he was rejecting my call the night before is because he doesn't want me to know that he won't be staying at Cubao and will be going home to Bulacan to prepare for his "surprise". The surprise which was ruined by a.... rooster. Hahaha!
To my one true love: I'm lost for words but I wanted you to know that I always thank God for giving me someone as wonderful as you. I love you forever!
P.S. He's been eating chicken for lunch and chicken for the past week -- Naghihiganti ata sa mga manok na sumira sas mga plano niya. Wahahaha!
