Against All Odds, We're Still Here

                                 

Thinking of writing this entry makes me tear up and I haven't even started. haha Personally, it was more difficult to separate from you this time compared to our fourth meet up. I don't know why, but it was definitely painful. Nevertheless, our path to each other is a little bit clearer now that we have a concrete idea of where we want to be in the coming years.

NAIA Airport
I was four hours early for my flight. The check in counter doesn't even open until two hours later. I waited for Marz (she was coming from work). I sat there chatting with you on Line. You were still at school, studying for your paper the next day.

Changi Airport
I didn't get to sleep properly during the flight because I was strangely nervous and excited at the same time. I waited for the plane to land. When we stepped foot in Changi Airport, Marz and I proceeded to the mini theater where they were showing The Theory of Everything. It was already in the last part when we arrived. After the movie finished, we found a charging station for our phones. A lady sat beside us and we all talked about how Singapore is a nice country, the culture of today's generation and how family ties are slowly disappearing, the culture in Manila, and why Marz and I speak English well (she was surprised at our speaking skills). After that we had an expensive breakfast which I didn't like and then took a shower. Around 5:30 am, we made our way to the train station but not without stopping by the chocolate store where I bought the Guylian Belgian chocolate goodness.

Dover Station
The train in Changi left exactly 6 am and we arrived at Dover precisely an hour later. I'm still amazed at the precision of it all. Anyway, we waited for only a bit before you surprised me from the back. It felt so good to feel your breath on my hair. But I have to admit, it was a little bit awkward (again) seeing you for the first time in a long time.

While Waiting
I couldn't sit still. I wanted to be beside you at all times even when you were only in the other room. But I knew you had to concentrate on your studies, so I contained myself. The song by Sam Smith called "Latch" (acoustic version) was so fitting. It goes, "I feel we're close enough, could I lock in your love? Now I've got you in my space, I won't let go of you. Got you shackled in my embrace, I'm latching onto you." When you were taking your exam, Marz dragged me to Haw Par Village. I reluctantly went because I just want to be near you and I was sleepy and tired. All the bad combinations. But I enjoyed the figures in Haw Par Village especially the 10 Gates of Hell or something. It reminded me too much of Dante's Inferno. 


Once we got back to SP, I couldn't wait to see you. Sigh, being in your school and seeing all the people who gets to be within your vicinity makes me feel jealous. I want to always be near you.

The Hotel & Dinner
It felt so good to wrap my arms around you, kiss you, and feel your weight on me. Your face was so close to mine, and I could watch your long lashes, feel your chest, your back, your hair... I miss you terribly.

Around 6 pm (?) we got ready for our dinner with Kharthik And Subbaa. We took the 190 bus and then the train. We smoked while waiting for them which wasn't that long of a wait. The dinner was so fun. You guys talked about the CPF which confused me at first and then the problems we encounter in the relationship. I remember when Subbaa heard you playfully call me a bitch, she was so surprised and she looked at Kharthik. And then when we started talking about the celebrities who attracted us, Kharthik was a bit hesitant. hahaha that was funny. We ended the night after a two putchers of tequila and a tower of beer. The first night we slept together felt wonderful and just perfect.

Tree Top Walk
We met Marz around 8:30 am and began our hike to the hanging bridge. I have to admit that I was not ready for that hike. I started feeling grumpy and I just wanted to keep going and finish it, but I know we couldn't do that because Marz hasn't had exercise in quite a while. At one point, I got a little annoyed because how can you guys be talking and then I got a bit jealous because why can't I be more like relaxed or something and have a good time like you and Marz. I think I'm going to hike more here in the Philippines.



After our 10 km walk, our well-deserved Fat Boy's burgers were waiting for us. It was so delicious, but after a while, I don't want it anymore. haha You finished yours fast though and I had mine to go.


After eating lunch, we dropped off Marz at the bus station and separated ways. On our way to the train station, I was still feeling moody, but you were patient and tried to talk to me which made me feel a lot better. I held onto your hand.

An Afternoon of Lazing Around

We took a shower when we reached the hotel. We smoked and had our little fun. I still can't get over how funny it was. Then we watched Gotham and ate the burger and fries we took out. We laid on the bed and you had your arm over me. It felt warm and incredible to be in your arms. I felt the hair on your forearm while watching which one of my favourite things I like doing to you.

Burnt & Rugby World Cup

At night, we saw a movie called Burnt. But before that, we had a little argument because I wasn't paying attention. We were on our way to look for the nearest 711 and you were talking about the plans for tomorrow, but I wasn't listening. You got annoyed and I felt embarrassed. We sat down on one of the benches outside and talked before going back to the movie house. We ordered a family size popcorn haha!

After the movie I felt incredibly sleepy. I couldn't stay awake for the finals which is so stupid because the whole point was to watch the finals together. huhu I'm sorry, babycakes. The next thing I remember was waking up to you spooning me in the morning.

01 November 2015, Sunday

In the morning, we made plans to catch Inside Out at 11. It was a really good movie and it made me cry a little. Watching it with you and getting to hold you and goof around is always the cherry on top. I really love holding your arm and squeezing your bicep and just feeling you next to me.


After the movie, we walked around the mall first to look for winter clothes, tampons, and the pet shop. Then we made our way to Little India where we had chicken biryani!! As I'm typing this, I am craving for it. I think I like mutton way more though. After biryani, you bought a piece of roti prata which at first didn't seem enough but after we finished it, it was just right cause we had the sweet drink too after. We walked a bit to the place where you buy the Indian sweets you were talking about. While I waited for you in the street, I looked around and secretly wished I could be there with you most of the time. The vacation was about to end, but I didn't want it to.

 Another Movie
As promised by you, we watched Paranormal Activity at the Cathay cinema. We had a small argument again about me being too excited about the blueberry ice cream and you got confused if I wanted it or not. We don't always understand each other because we haven't gotten used to our everyday nuances and habits. But anyway, during the movie,I love how you held me so tight and shouted during the scary scenes. haha

The Connection
After the movie, we walked back to Orchard and talked about so many things. Our plans, bouncy boobs, the sex shop, and parallel universe. Our visit to the sex shop was oddly pleasant. Maybe one day, we can explore a bit more. After the sex shop, we walked back to the Mcdonald's in Far East Plaza where we bought our McSpicy burgers!!! And then we went to buy ice cream at Gelato (or something) where you saw the McDonald's sign. haha Now you know. Before going back to the hotel, we sat on the bench and ate our ice cream.

Last Night Together
On our last night, we smoked, watched Gotham, and enjoyed our McSpicy burger. It was my first time eating it and....wow. I want more. We also tried doing what we said we would, but failed. :( At least I gave you what I owed before. Our last night together wasn't as sad as we experienced before. I'm not sure why. We slept soundly that night.

Checking Out
It was an easy morning for us. We laid down and watched Cosby. Made love for the last time before meeting Marz at Bugis. After packing our things and taking a shower, I finally felt the reality of leaving you again.I couldn't help but cry this time, but you reassured me that we would see each other again.

Bugis
Before going to Bugis, we got food from Old Chang Kee. I miss their food. After that, we stopped over at Bugis to meet Marz and eat somewhere, but we ended up eating at a store by the mall. I didn't like it that much. Then off we went to the airport...

Changi Airport
I noticed that whenever Marz is there, you like to walk ahead or away from me which annoyed me a little because I wanted to maximize the time we have together. So whenever you would walk too far ahead, I would grab your hand or arm. We checked in our luggage and stayed at Krispy Kreme for the remainder of the time we had together.


We went out for a smoke and to spend time alone together (alone with the other guys smoking lol). The feeling was getting heavier and heavier. By the time we had to separate, I couldn't hold it in anymore. I already missed you - your hair, your voice, your caring and sweet ways, your temper, your nail biting, your kisses, your hand, your forearm, your chest, your cargo shorts, your beard, the feeling of being wrapped around your arms, your breath, your tummy - everything.I really felt home with you and I want to build a home together. Walking down the immigration, I tried my best not to cry but tears were falling uncontrollably. Walking past it, I looked back at you and saw you signaling me to walk the other way. My idiotic ways have a purpose. I think we needed that to feel a little better.

Sigh. I want to start living with you and building our own home. I want to know your habits and your nuances. I want to memorize you and experience you. I also want to experience hard times with you because I know you're going to be our rock(y). I want to learn that from you, but the only way to do that is to be there with you.
