To my seemingly undying negativity.

I'm tired of thinking about you. Yes, YOU. Please stay away from me. Go bother someone else's head.

When he told me that he'd take me flying, my head's initial reaction was "Marunong kaya talaga sya?" 

It's not because I didn't trust him enough. It's just that I'm not used to seeing him as a pilot. I never had the chance to actually see him fly a plane prior to our day trip. Sure, we talk about things related to his soon-to-be profession but it was all in theory. I never actually got to see him near a plane. Let alone fly one.

He was actually suffering from fever the night before our date. I was already suggesting that we  postpone it to some other day when he feels better already. But since he scheduled his check ride on the same day cancelling was not really an option despite his sickly state.

Thankfully, when we left early in the morning he was feeling a little better. Just to allow him to have some rest before flying, I agreed to drive and traverse the dreadful EDSA. Actually, I was pretty confident that EDSA would not give me trouble that morning. It was early Saturday morning. How could there be traffic in EDSA?? But as if the Highway is mocking me, I found myself head to head with trucks and buses. Well.. okay, for normal drivers, traffic may not have been that bad. But for a bad driver like me, EDSA will always be a nightmare whatever day it is. And so, I drove up to Nlex with full concenration. (despite my proclamation last Tuesday that I will never ever drive up north.) When we stopped by the gasoline station, he took over the driving, which I more than willingly gave up. 

While he drove us, I gave in to the calling of dreamland. When we arrived at his school I was still so sleepy that when he offered to leave me in the car while he finishes some paper work  I simply grumbled  "Uh-huh" in between my snoring.

When he came back to wake me, he was already upbeat and intense.  While he rummaged through his things to get ready, I was debating in my head whether my "inaantok pa ako, mamaya na lang" tactic would work as it usually does. But when I saw how serious he was  I realized that today is not the day that my tactic would work. So, with all the energy I had, I tried to get up and fix myself. 

We were transported by the school's L300 van to the main airport's runway. I did not understand why we needed to go to the main airport but the look of concentration on his face told me that questions would be entertained later.  I was sensing this silent intensity from him.  When I remembered that we were there because he will take me flying, I thought to myself, "Ah dapat lang na mag concentrate sya."

When we got to the runway, I saw the plane that we are to use and the pilot who used it earlier. I was still not asking questions at this point although I was watching him closely as I try to determine whether he is actually up for it considering his state the previous night. 

The first thing that he did upon alighting the van is to approach the caucasian pilot. I heard him ask the pilot, "Which runway did you use to depart?" Or something like that. (I'm sorry. I do not speak pilot language)  I panicked and said a silent prayer when I heard this.

While he was helping the I-dont-know-what-you-call-them  to prep the plane up, I kept thinking "pag nag yaya na kaya ako umuwi magagalit sya sakin?" But of course I didn't say that aloud because if I so much hint on that idea, I'd  forever be "the girl na nagyayang umuwi sa takot". 

And it's a good thing that my fear did not win me over because it's the coolest date I've ever had. It's not everyday that I get to ride a plane with the pilot as my date! But more than anything, I was happy to actually see him fly a plane. When we were younger, he would always tell me how much he wanted to become a pilot. At the time he considered it as merely a dream. Never to become a reality. But look at him now! A few months away from finally becoming a professional pilot. 

I am very happy that I get to see his "Wish ko lang dream" fulfilled.

I could think of plenty of sappy love quotes to describe how our relationship is. But then why bother describing it? It is what it is. The rest of the world can simply make their own assumptions. ;)
