“LET’S dance, shall we?” Sam said as he extended his hand towards mine.
“Pero hindi ako marunong sumayaw,” I said, pouting.
“Come on, you can do it.” pagkasabi’y hinatak niya ako patayo bago hinila papunta sa gitna. Bigla namang pumainlalang sa ere ang kantang “Closer You and I.”
Hey, there’s a look in your eyes
Must be love at first sight
You were just part of a dream
Nothing more so it seemed
Pagkapunta sa gitna ay hinapit niya ako palapit sa kanya bago ipinatong ang dalawang kamay sa bewang ko. Ako namang wala nang nagawang protesta ay inilagay ang mga kamay sa balikat niya bago kami bumuo ng sayaw.
But my love couldn’t wait much longer
Just can’t forget the picture of your smile
‘Cause every time I close my eyes
You come alive
Nung una ay natatapakan ko pa ang sapatos ni Sam dahil nga di talaga ako marunong. Pero nang maglaon ay tila tinangay ng hangin ang hindi ko kagalingang sumayaw dahil nasasabayan ko rin sa wakas ang pag-agos niya. Sumabay pa nga ang kanta sa kagustuhan ko pang sumayaw nang sumayaw kasama si Sam.
The closer I get to touching you
The closer I get to loving you
Give it a time
Just a little more time
We’ll be together
I leaned at his chest as I close my eyes to listen to the song. Ako lang ba or parang perfect ang kantang iyon para sa gabing ito? It just felt so perfect knowing that the song playing was the one I’m dancing with. Dapat na ba akong magpasalamat sa gumawa ng kanta na ‘to for making this night more perfect? I don’t know. It maybe a he or she, I’m willing to thank him very much for this great masterpiece.
Every little smile
That special smile
The twinkle in your eye in a little while
Give it a time
Just a little more time
So we can get closer
You and I
Sam held my chin up to face him. I couldn’t help myself but to admire his handsome face na alam kong mas gwapo pa sa kung sino man o kay Qen. Paano ko ba siya nagawang ganitong ka-gwapo nang hindi ko napapansin?
“Are you happy?”
“I’m always happy when I’m with you...”
“I am, too. I’m always happy whenever I’m with you. Presensya mo lang, makita ko lang ngiti mo, buo na araw ko.”
“Ganun mo ako kamahal, huh?” I said, chuckling.
