Yet Another Phone Call

And so he calls me again. It's been so long since he last called me. Yes, it's David. David my Bubu.

(See last entry of him here)

He just called like minutes ago and I couldn't help but grab my keyboard and blog about it. I was in the jeepney on my way home (yeah, home so early) when my phone rang. Another international number flashed on my screen. I was thinking it might be someone from the office using one of the forbidden phones again so I answered right away.

"Bert?"

That familiar voice always gives me that butterfly in my stomach. I could never be mistaken.

"Dah-beed!!"

Honestly, I was very excited to hear his voice. We haven't talked that much though we're friend in FB. I bet he's busy with his life, I'm quite busy with mine. We started catching up on each other's lives. I didn't care if I was in a public vehicle, I was seated in the front seat anyway. We talked like the way used to -- we just laughed, joked around, suddenly keeps silent and all those craziness.

And yes, we got to that part again. The supposedly "us" topic. Well people, I'm glad to inform you that David is still single. Haha!! Anyway, yes, he asked me about that guy I keep on talking about in my status messages in FB (that's Andy btw). He wondered why I was sad, why I suddenly turned happy and vice versa. It's like he wanted to know how Andy was like, why Andy was giving me this kind of bipolar effect. I told him it's hard... very hard to explain over the phone. I guess he understood, he respected my decision not to go deeper with the topic. Not that it gives me pain or what. It's just that it's gonna make things more complicated.

I couldn't hear any tone of regret from his voice. I can't be sure about that either. I mean, how should I know if he's just fakin' his voice while his facial expression says a different thing? Well, he didn't say he was happy for me, he didn't tell me he doesn't like what I'm going through either. And for that, I definitely appreciate him being that ear I need to talk to. He never shared to me any updates about his so called lovelife. I'm not sure if he's comfortable talking about it anyway.

The phone call ended with a surprise. He said he sent me a package, a gift. He never gave me any hint as to what kind of gift it is. He said I just have to wait for it to arrive in our place. I'm excited!! It should be here anytime within the week.

Honestly, I still miss my BuBu!!

Much Love
