First Date: Summer Love

I was 14 when I had my first ever decent date

My boy friend who was my classmate from Grade 6 to first year highschool and transferred to Baguio on our 2nd year, visited me during our summer vacation. We hanged out together with our other friends, including his cousin who drove for us.

To make the long story short, his cousin has a crush on me and been asking my friend a lot about me. Uso pa telebabad nun so we talked for long hours... during those times, my friend never bothered to call me anymore. I wondered why I missed him but his cousin always calls me even if he's in Manila (where he lives). I love the effort of long distance call just to check how I am. Whenever he was in AC, that was the time we can talk for hours. I enjoyed talking to him. He talked about a lot of things which were new to me. He's so sensible and kind. He's 7 years older.

Til one day, he asked me to have dinner with him on Saturday Night, he will go to Angeles.. Gosh I said yes! BUT I panicked when he said he will fetch me in our house, 6pm. I can't say "NO meet na lang tayo sa kanto namin" lol..

I was stressing out myself for days thinking about how to tell DAD that I'm going out on Saturday Night? It's always OK to go out with my friends coz he trusts them but with a guy? I havent tried asking him that yet that's why I was stressed..

That night, I was so nervous. I got no choice but to tell Dad, and he was somewhat shocked lol.. First time kasi eh, Im the eldest... Good thing when he arrived, he knocked and went inside. He really had the intention of asking my Dad's permission to take me out. Daddy was like a police, interrogating him. He even asked him to write his address in Manila and Angeles... He gave us curfew til 9pm (ay naku!)

How was our date? It was memorable and indeed the moment I was fantasizing. A gentleman who would open doors for me lol.. take me home on time and kiss me goodnight yeah we kissed but never thought that was the first and last I WAS INFATUATED.

He said he realized I was still too young. Before something gets deeper, he should let go. Kawawa lang daw ako coz he lives in Manila. He said his cousin likes me too that they started not to talk eversince he called me. That made sense. ALthough I lost my friend.

ANyway, Seeing him talking to my dad in his formal and polite way, I realized that's the type of man I would like to be my boyfriend. Matured and responsible. Maybe that's the reason why I choose older than me.
