she's the sleepyhead... and i'm the alarm clock

I went back to manila the following morning, when i got back to our room, i slept. when i woke up, i remembered that she was going to their booth in glorietta because her mom asked her to come. so i decided to meet her at the mall because she might be lonely or bored and because i wanted to see her.

anyway, later that day, i saw greg at the mall. he was shopping for clothes. he asked what i was doing there, i said that i was going to meet her. he said that he also saw mica there.

anyway, i met xyza and we had dinner at mcdonalds. she loves fries. cheese burger meal, upsize the fries and drinks. she loves large fries and the ketchup. the ketchup has to be in the packs she likes spreading the ketchup on the fries. she also likes cheeseburgers because she likes cheese. she wont eat the burger, she'll just bring it with her. i love fries too, but i love fries with gravy. i know im weird and crazy.

after dinner, she had to check the inventory of their booth and i went with her. it's really nice of her to help out with her family business. after that we went around the mall, and whenever we pass by a computer shop, she always asks me if i wanted to play. i said, no thanks. i really want to play, but if i play, what would she do. she said that she'll just watch. i dont even like watching other people play, what more if she's the one watching. after that she said that she wants to go to the city hall and just sit down. of course i said yes.

when we reached the city hall, she just sat down on the sidewalk, like before and she said that she wanted to drink beer. that was surprizing, but i got us a bottle of beer each. we just sat down on the sidewalk and drank beer. i know what she wanted to drink beer just so that when she gets gome, she'll easily fall a sleep. she didnt even finish her bottle. but it was ok. i adviced her to go get some sleep because she has work at 3am. so i got her a cab so that she could go home.

after she got int, i also got into the cab. i dont know why, but i want to know that she reach her apartment safely. while in the cab, i noticed that she's already sleepy. i also want to tell her how much i care about her. inside the cab, she did all the talking, i learned that she really wanted to be with her family and that she really misses them. i got her home safely but only upto their gate. i told her to sleep because she needs it. i told her to that i'll wake her up at 1:30 so that she could still prepare for going to work.

she's the sleepyhead... and i'm the alarm clock...

rest days are the best days of the week!

friday... the end of the week... the end of work... time to unwind... time to hang loose... time to go home...

i asked xyza if it's ok if we went home together again... im glad that she said ok. anyway we met at megamall and everything was all good, i felt like an ass but i felt good... nothing can go wrong when im with her. WRONG!!! i met her at starbucks and i got her a chocofrappe, we talked about our week and then i asked her what she wanted to eat and she returned the question to me by asking me what i liked eating... sooo, to be on the safe side, i said pizza (wrong move asshole)...

we went to a yellow cab shop and got us a 10" pizza and a couple of sodas. i knew she liked eating so i wanted her to enjoy herself so i can spend more time with her. i liked talking to her or when she tells a story, at the end of it all it was nice to see her with a happy smile and chinky eyes. that was after i ate 2 slices, and she finished her first. i thought, 3 out of 8 slices... not bad... then xyza said that she'll only eat a slice after i eat 3 slices. 2 slices for her and 6 slices for me... i knew that i could do it.. after my third slice she got her 2nd slice. i couldn't eat a fifth slice. but it's really weird how she cheers me on and mocks me by saying that pizza tastes good and its my favorite... i got another can of soda coz it's really tough to eat if you know that you have to eat 2 more slices... it's like what i learned in economics, when you reach the satisfaction point, even though its your favorite, you really wont enjoy it that much anymore... but with her beside me, i couldnt fail.

i somehow, by some miracle, managed to finish 6 slices and she was all smiles and cheered when i finished it... it was then that i really SICK of eating pizza... but i felt good because she's still there... smiling... happy...

after the pizza episode, i asked her what was a good gift for a girl... she said that she doesnt really know... i thought yeah right... but it was true, she wasn't any normal girl that i met before, i asked her if a teddy bear was a nice choice, she said that she really doesn't know, she's not a teddy bear person. i asked her flowers, she's not a flowers fan either. she adviced me a jacket... a jacket of her favorite color...

we were supposed to ride a bus in front of megamall but because it was kinda raining we decided to ride the MRT (it's like a subway system of manila). on our way to the mrt station she asked me if we can pass by shangri-la mall. i thought, she didnt need to ask it, i would follow her anywhere. so we passed by shangri-la and she said that one of her favorite food was silvanas. to tell you the truth i dont really eat silvannas i havent even tried or seen it before that. she bought 4 pieces, 2 for her 2 for me. it was sweet. and it was even sweeter because it was from her. the sweetness isnt like sugar. it was something else.

after we got off at the ayala station, we were walking in glorietta and i really liked looking at shops to see what i could buy with my hard earned money. and it was really surprizing that she stops and says that why dont i stop because we're already there. i said that it's ok since we were in a hurry to catch the bus in landmark. but she still insisted. so i decided to look around. i know im such an ass.

we arrived at the landmark terminal and bus was already gone. i really felt stupid because i felt that it was my fault that we missed the bus. so to think of a back up plan, i told her that we could take the bus in taft. she was so tired so i told her that i could carry her. she just smiled and said that she was ok. now i really felt embarrassed because its all my fault. anyway we walked until we were at the makati stock exchange building and it was there where we got on a bus on the way to taft.

we got off at the taft station and we walked to the bus terminal. there we got our seats on a bus, probably the one of the last busses to leave. i appologized because it was my fault that we missed the bus at the landmark terminal. she said it was ok, i really dont know if it was ok or she was just saying that to make me feel better. anyway opened up again about my previous relationships (why the hell do i have to talk about that when i was with her... im so stupid)... anyway, i learned more about her, that she wants to hang out in one of the gas stations at night... kinda unique, but in a nice way.. she slept all the way to laguna...

half empty

anyway, since i dont get to see xyza anymore... i was pretty much the same, working at night, selling like there's no tomorrow, hanging out with my teammates, drinking after shift and what not. but something was missing... i miss talking to the petite girl from the room next door... we had new roommates but it wasnt the same...

by the way, there were 5 of us in the room now... me, greg, glenn, lenard and keith. it was fun, but somehow i felt incomplete. YEAH YEAH IM CHEEZY... i don't give a rat's ass if its cheezy...

anyway, xyza has a boyfriend... and i know im just a friend... but it was nice to know that im a "friend"... 1 is greater than 0 in any equation... anyway, last friday i went to a near by computer shop to check my mail and when i got back she was there. i asked her if she was going to home to laguna and i asked her if its ok if we got went on the bus together. all was well, but then greg also decided that he's going home too... damn... hahaha... anyway, she slept the whole way... but it was nice to be with her even though it was just for a few hours.... there's something about her eyes when she's happy... her hair smells nice too...
