Once in My White Valentine


                         FEBRUARY 14  ---  a day people look up to as couples or as individuals. Some people celebrates on this day but some also just lets it pass just like an ordinary day. Lovers or not we get excited on this day for we do not know the surprises that may come. During this day, well, we all know guys and girls receive flowers and chocolates. Different ways on how we can express our feelings during this day. Red Roses are definitely the common flower given on that day but all people have different stories to tell and songs to sing. I also have a story to tell, my own story indeed, a story that had happened once in my white valentine.

                           The day before Valentines Day was just a typical school day for me. Every thing goes on its same way like every other days. During the afternoon, it comes to me that I'll but flowers for this girl who captures my heart for almost 4 years now. She has this beautiful and sparkling eyes, extraordinary laughter, lovable attitude, also the face is beautiful and a lot more! I could never describe her more for its like catching a lightning in finding someone like her. Its one in a million the chances of feeling the way I do to her. A group of friends of mine came talking about valentines day and how they'll be celebrating it and I got some ideas and finally said to my self, "I should ask her for tomorrow" and as any of us would feel, I felt coward for its going to the first time I'll do it but my friends cheers me up so when  I've seen her going home already I ran towards her and talks to her without asking yet because i got tongue-tied. When they were on the vehicle already and ready to go home, I came to her ears and tried to whisper but no words would come out so i keep on giggling and so as she When the vehicle was about to move, I hurriedly whisper into her ears the words, "Can You Be My Valentine?" and she replied, "yeah, same to you". While I was walking home, I was wondering of her answer to i tried to text my friend and ask her to ask that girl if she heard what I say just to make sure and as what I expected she didn't hear it but instead, "Happy Valentines!!". So, I text the girl and asks her the question and later that night I got a reply saying "YES, I CAN BE". Receiving that text sends me to heaven for finally I'll have a date on Valentines. I can't sleep during that night for I was too worried on what will happen the next day for its our first times. Time check, its 12:00 am already so I said to myself that night, "I Can Do This its going to be Now Or Never!". By the Next day, Its Valentines Day already and I woke up early to prepare everything I have planned. Using my allowance for the week, I bought roses to give her, 14 roses with meanings on each rose. These roses were white in color for the white roses expresses the feeling I got for her. I tried to style and fix the roses individually for I was planning to give them individually having first one inside the room without anyone seeing and that's the reason why i got up early. After leaving the rest of the 13 roses inside one of the offices in school, i pretended that I wasn't the admirer but as I expected, all their suspicions directs to me without any doubts for I was having this feeling since when we were still in first year. One by one, I ask other student and even teachers! to give the white roses to her during classes and breaks. The class screams a loud in every flower that she receives and directs their sights on me and I keep on denying that its me! hahaha but inside of me , I wanted to scream with all my might that it is me!!! hahahaha..When the afternoon came, I had prepared 5 white balloons with 1 letter in each balloon of her name. When it is time to give the 12th White Rose, a teacher was asked to do this by my friend and I was shocked for he said during the class, "Excuse me Ma'am, I would just like to give the flower to a special girl" and it sends the whole class screaming and teasing all the way to the top. While I was listening, I felt really nervous for the rest of the plan. After the last subject in the afternoon, I asked my seatmate to give the 13th White rose to her on the stairs and direct her to proceed to the center of the Soccer Field in the school for I'll meet her there. So using the balloons, i tried to make a parade where the balloons in front and I'm at the last line. When we reached the center of the field, they formed the name and I was standing at the back of the line with cold hands. I emerged in front holding the last White Rose towards her with a fire burning inside my heart that keeps on telling on how I really feel. I stood there, face to face with her with no words on my mouth nothing would go out and i wanted to freak out but finally I said to her, "14 White Roses, 14 corresponds to meanings". I told her the 14 and while delivering it, a crowd started to gather with teachers and students listening to what I say to her. Both of us really were sweating at the moment for its the first time we have done something like this. I saw people taking pictures, and videos around us! Some were looking from the High School building, Pathways, Covered Court, Basketball Court, and around us! its like i wanna collapse and leave the world! but I still continue to do it and when I am finished with the 14, I asked the crowd to vacate now for I have something to tell her and they all vacated. Finally with so much sweat and nervousness, I told her, "Can We Have Dinner Tonight? Just Outside our House" and I got a reply of, "Yes!" and then we talked a little about what I really feel and how willing I am to wait for the right time when she will be ready to accept suitors and a lot more! hahaha. After that conversation, we head home already together and I was just smiling the whole time for I couldn't believe what had just happened! We had dinner outside the house with white roses at the center and white balloons on the side with the matching of white tables and chairs and white walls! Its a White Valentine indeed that we have celebrated. During the Dinner, I had a lot of fun and a lot of love. I was talking about looking for her during the college and her being my next valentine for I'll really look for her! we finished dinner and talking around 8 in the evening and I escorted her back at their house and i stayed there for a while and left. I tried to walk in going home, I text her a long message about the day and when I cross the road, I hit my head in the leaving a hump on my head! hahaha. maybe i was just shocked with all the happenings. When I reach home, I tried to wash up and when i was about to sleep, images of her flashes on my mind and i can't help but smile with all those images of her. I would never forget this day of my life, February 14, 2012. After that, I finally fallen asleep.

                            "The story of a love is not important - what is important is that one is capable of love. It is perhaps the only glimpse we are permitted of eternity." The stories we tell would indicate our well being. These stories, which i believe are meant to be told. The Eternal I have, the true and sincerest intentions and love are all express with the 14 White Roses. 5 White Balloons. Love Stories are different  with different people and this has been a story i wanted to share, Once in my White Valentine.
