I was eating in a fastfood chain yesterday with some officemates when my new boyfriend texted me.

“San ka na?” he asked.

I told him that I was on my way to the UP campus with a friend. He told me that I should go home early. I didn’t tell him that I would go to Cyberzone to shop for some items. Earlier, he asked me to bring home something for him; food or anything. He’s still very much a child at heart; innocent and naive.

I shopped for some bedroom items. I passed by the men’s department and decided that the light yellow shirt would look good on him. I put it on my shopping basket and headed towards the cashier.

What the hell is wrong with me? I hated buying clothes for my ex-boyfriends but with the new one, I just felt that he would appreciate.

He texted me while I and my friends were along EDSA. He wanted to make sure that I was safe. He asked who I was with and I said that I was with a male and female officemate. He said that he doesn’t like me car pooling with male officemates or even friends. He set the rules that I dunno if I could follow.

It was starting to drizzle when I got home. I missed him a little that night. He loves me very much, I can feel it. He’s not my ideal man, though. But is love about good impressions, materially-speaking?

I want to be wrapped around his loving arms everytime I hear the raindrops falling. Ewan ko ba bakit ko sya nagustuhan. Siguro dahil mahal na mahal nya ako.
