*** “TURN right at the intersection, then after the market turns right, there is my favorite restaurant.” She is pointing the way to her favorite restaurant! She’s happy because it has been a long time since she came here. He glanced at her with a smile on his face before looking back at driving. "You look excited," he said. "Yes, of course, I am! It has been a long time since I last came here." "Do you come here often?" “Yes. Before.” Before everything turns into a mess. "We're here." He said as he stopped the car at the restaurant’s parking space. "Yeah! Let’s go inside! Later there will be lots of people dining here, the tables will run out immediately.” She said very enthusiastically. The restaurant has changed a lot since the last time Infinity came here. The former cafeteria is now one of the famous restaurants in the area. There is also a small venue on the second floor that can be used for baptisms, weddings, or any other celebration. There were a lot of peop

Now it's time to kiss away those tears goodbye. - With a Smile, Eraserheads *** * F L A S H B A C K * "DO you come here often?" He asked while chewing the food they ordered. "Not that often. Only on special occasions. This is where we eat on my birthday, or my father and mother's birthday. This restaurant has a special place in my heart," She answered. "I'm lucky if that's the case. Because this place is special to you, but you thought of bringing me here." She just smiled at him. "(1)Aling Nene." He read the signboard of the restaurant that they were eating right now. It was a good thing that they came here a little bit early because the restaurant was soon filled with customers. "She’s the one sitting at the cashier's table, she is the owner of the restaurant.” "This Sisig is delicious!" he said after taking a bite of the Sisig they ordered. "Their Bula
*** "WHY did you bring me here out of so many places? Are you planning to push me over the cliff?" She was joking here, but she was also afraid that he might do it. "Why would I push you?" He asked, a little bit of hurt. He didn't know that she thought of him like that, a person capable of hurting her. She shrugged her shoulders and looked at him." Maybe you followed your intrusive thoughts and pushed me.” Then she laughed. He just shook his head. She’s unbelievable! It was already around 8 P.M. It was a weekday, which is why there were fewer people around the place. They can see more and you can feel the beauty and aesthetic of the surroundings. "Beautiful." She heard him whisper. They both looked at the stars on the ground while waiting for their order. "Yes, they are. A beautiful mess." she agreed with him. Even though it was noisy from other people who were dining, silence enveloped the two of them. As if they are both content even in the silence of the night. Th
You gave me a reason for my being and I love what I'm feeling You gave me a meaning to my life. Yes, I've gone beyond existing And it all began when I met you. - When I Met You, APO Hiking Society *** * F L A S H B A C K * “I CLOSED the deal, Mahal! Dad is so happy!” His wife greeted him when he opened the door. There is joy in his voice. He wasn't satisfied and picked her up. “Really? I am so proud of you!” "Yes, Mahal! So get dressed! We will leave.” "Where are we going?" She asked, a little bit surprised. "Where else? We will celebrate!” She laughed and kissed her husband. "Alright! It is only right that we celebrate such things.” "That's right, we said to each other. No matter how small or big a win is, we should still celebrate!” He kissed her for the last time before finally putting her down. "I'm just going to get dressed." She said to him. Her husband looked at her from head to toe. She's wearing her usual house dress. An oversized t-shirt, which he us
*** “DON’T you have relatives to go to this day, dear? I mean, even a province where you can go on a vacation?" Robin asked her as they ate lunch. “I don't know any relatives of my mother." “So you will not go on any vacation this Lent season? This time, it was Pipay who asked her. The Lent season is on the way, and some of the writers are flying to their hometowns for a short vacation. "I d-don’t know.” She shrugged her shoulders. "I don’t know. Maybe I'll just stay here at my apartment. Go with your vacation, leave Manila because it’s too crowded already!” “How about the convent? You don’t want to visit them?” She was stunned for a moment by Robin's question. It has been a while since she last visited sister Ella. Even if she wanted to visit them, she hesitated a little. Many children are surely waiting for her return, but she can't give them what she promised she would bring for them once she visited again. Maybe she should ask Louise if she could cash advance her roya

The man once again asked her, but she didn't answer. What should she answer to this? The truth? Or the lie that she always answers whenever someone asks this question? But before she could answer, the man walked towards her and stared at her face. Infinity became conscious of the look he was giving. He stared straight into her eyes as if staring through her soul. "You don't have to answer. We are not related also. And I-I don't know him personally, either. I am just a curious cat lurking around.” He answered. He passed him and approached the grave. He saw the fresh flowers she had just put there. She kept her gaze on the man. If she's going to describe the man in front of her, the description of him as tall, dark, and handsome would fit him. He also has this jolly aura around him that, even
***"HOW was your lent season?" Paolo asked as they were once again eating street foods on the sidewalk. "Fine. You?" She answered while chewing. "My family and Grace went to our private beach house in Zambales. My family's thinking of getting away from Manila's crowd, not knowing there are tons of people who are also thinking the same. We are stuck at the expressway for 4 hours! Imagine?” The mention of Ma'am Grace, his fiancé, gives her a bitter aftertaste. And at this moment, she asked herself. Because of that, she asked herself what she was thinking rig
