some good things 3

(Wrong button pressed. Story went 2 Blogs. Hehe.. Sorry! 2 me. Too eager.. TAKE 2.)

At the Halohalo parlor(?) if you may call it that, we checked each other out.

I was impressed with the girl I was with. Right then and there, I realized I want to know her more, and I showed my true intentions by saying so formally.

'Miss Pardillo, I know it's still early but I want you to know that I'm attracted to you and I may communicate with you often. I am too pleased that you trusted me enough with this appointment. Thank you for this opportunity.'

Or, words to that effect. I was way too formal then. I said those words while looking into her eyes, to signify that I was speaking from the heart. I guessed I'm an old romantic.

She looked at me with those soulful eyes, as if measuring the gravity of my words. I felt at ease with that long gaze. She too was peaceful in our company.

The problem will be the many temptations beyond our control.

But, it didn't matter. When you know that your foot is on its right path, you have courage and will to pursue your plans. Saying so will gain more trust, at least that's what I thought was right.

We walked to the terminal with her hand in mine so I won't lose her in the crowd. There was a populace let loose during that time- which was the same for all colleges and universities in the city.

'She didn't mind too that that we seated on the seats next to the driver, so she won't be troubled with men who find her physical appearance too sexy. Besides, we were almost near the place where riders will transfer to another passenger jeep so it's also convenient for us.

She felt relaxed as we savor the fresh night air as we passed the ricefields and fish-farms. Her jetblack hair tickled my neck as she snuggled close. I held her head as I felt she took a nap on my shoulder. She was that peaceful.
