The Busy Bee

I always have this thing going in my head. It’s always full. I am a confused machine.

Also, I am a very busy woman. Haha. Mark knows this too well. I remember him too grateful and got all these fireworks swarming over his head whenever I hit ‘reply’ because that happens once in every two blue moons.

Last September 2015, I went to Baguio City. I told him all about it. We were not close then. He promised that he will be sending me messages even if I am not going to respond. Okay, I thought. Let’s see who’ll break that promise. He didn’t. Well, for three days anyway. Haha! He was consistent I tell you. I was like “Whoa. Okay Mark, go on. Keep doing it. You’ll get tired.”

Eventually, he did.

What followed then was scarcity of messages. When I say scarcity, what I mean is when his messages are slowly fading until we forgot our existence. I suddenly missed him out of the blue. I have no idea why. I just realized that something’s missing and I don’t think I am used to that kind of feeling.

To cut it short, we’re back on track.

Baby, I know there are times when you just wish I am not as busy as I am. I want you to know that I have been trying to adjust. I came to the point of putting your name inside my calendar to remind myself to keep you amidst the busy days. I may sometimes be too absorbed in my work that I can’t even drop a message but that doesn’t mean my love for you falters. I am just off. Haha!

Baby, I am still trying to figure out if you’re lucky with me. Haha! I mean seriously, where do you even get such patience? I have been dating men before but they can’t figure out a way to keep me because of my busy days. Did I mention babe? There was this man before—his name was Bryan—and he’d been courting me for weeks I suppose. Since I can’t share my time, he offered to wait outside my school gate so he can drive me home. And babe, did I mention my home is only a walking distance from the school? Haha! Anyway, he finally realized I am not into him.

Bottom line, I cannot give you my 24-hour attention but I can assure you that because of your patience and understanding, you have my whole heart. I love you babe.
