Untold...
by: Brai Amongo
It was all started from April 2008. That time I’m one of the graphic artists in Marketing Division of my previous company. She applied there as an OJT. Actually, they were 4 girls who were oriented to us. But none of the three gave me their attentions, but Jen only.
It wasn’t that instant, cause we are in the same Company for two months but in different departments. We had not given a chance to chat, nor to introduce myself to her personally and formally. Though everyday I’m planning what to wear and make groomed as expected I can gain her attention and formally talk with her. Unfortunately, we had not given the chance.
But on their last week of stay, I made to get her contact number. And, as not expected she was very accommodating in every message I gave to her. That was the sign, I know…. She likes me too. :) Haha!
There were times in the office that they tease us whenever we crossed our passageway.
Until, the last day of their employment happens that we went out that night. That was the very start of our story… OFFICIALLY. :)
We went out with the feeling that just like we’ve been friends for years. We talked, we threw jokes at the corniest but we knew we're both happy. She wasn’t shy to me, so do I. It was very comfortable to have conversation with her at the very first time (personally huh).
I’m pretty sure she was having fun being with me too. She even made a gesture that was much unexpected. ;p
Like, she was embracing from my back whenever we had to fall in line. She was wrapping around her arms to mine as we walk. Some kind of flirty moves, isn’t it? But we’re both relaxed.
That was our very 1st day we officially met….
But she had to go back to Batangas again. Granting it was her last day in company. We were both worried that we might not get to see each other again since she has no business anymore in Manila.
Thus, we both relied to text messaging only. We were not so fanned of giving a call, just a plain text, we were contented.
Days past, we’ve been realizing that we were acutely attached. In a way, that we know each other deeper just through text message.
People may think, we we’re just textmates. But we’re not.
Being spontaneous, one day she travelled along to Megamall and surprised me a visit. I was in a ToyCon that time in Megamall too…
The excitement were there, after almost a month, finally we saw each other again. :)
It was a very short day to have conversation since she needs to go back home, but that time she told me we surpass the level of friendship.
We didn’t think the risk of having an LDR. We just knew we are happy! She was still college back then, and I’m working.
The casual agenda that time was Ive been going to Batangas every other Saturday and went back QC in the evening. It was tough. Limited time, limited days since I need also to visit my hometown at Nueva Ecija. The North and South bound. With that situation,we always see to it that we have quality time. We went to places that that we’re never been visit before, and we like it that we explore new things as things getting better.
We both believe before that LDR will not work, but suddenly, it happens to pursue with no pressure.
Until we celebrate our very 1st 100days (since we didn’t celebrate our monthsary). I gave her a surprise then and she appreciated it. Then it goes, until we’ve been a year together, then another year, and another blastful year. We enjoyed every celebration we made, we’ve become more adventurous, we’ve become more honest, we’ve become more open to each other. Those moments have been our key to make our bond strong enough.
As I describe her, Jen is a type of person that stands as my girlfriend, also as my friend, as kabarkada and even as nanay in some ways. I may say, part of me as what I am now was cultured by her. And I’m happy about that and I know she’s been caring our relationship.
I love Jen. I love us.
