First of Firsts

April 13, 2016. Wednesday

Early this morning, I was already thinking about you. Gusto kong makasabay ka sa pagpasok sa trabaho. Hindi yun nangyari. Lunch time. I went down to 7th floor to buy food for lunch. I was alone. When I went up, the elevator stops at the 8th floor. There's so many people that step in inside the lift. So I was standing in a sideway position. Since it was crowded, I couldn't see who's in front of me. The voice sounds familiar. Her body looks someone I know. I looked at her hair. Then I know it was you. I looked down and pretending that I didn't see you. I scroll down my phone to make it more convincing. People started to leave the lift as its passing by each floor. Then you noticed me. I knew it without directly looking at you. I was watching the elevator sign on which floor are we. At the corner of my eye, I saw you making a glance at me. Patay malisya ako. That makes my heart pounding. At around 6:10pm, I was watching something on my phone. You visited your friends, which happened to be my officemates as well. You were in the other side of our department's room. I just stay in my position. Sitting. I didn't expect that we will be going home together. I thought it would just end there. Your friend/my officemate wanted to eat first before going home. And I didn't expect anything, it just happened. You choose to sit beside me. Really? You were beside. I can't move my body. While we were eating, you accidentally hit my arm. You said sorry and I said the same thing. Our first ever convo. My 3 officemates will be riding on the same bus. I will be left behind. But I knew that you will also cross the other side to ride a bus. We'll still be together before we part ways. Then I said bye to your friend and to you. You looked at me but I looked at your friend while saying goodbye. I was so damn shy. But it still made my day. 😍😍
