It Doesn't Matter How Slowly You Go Novels & Stories

Bumagal din ang kabayo, parang nakiramdam sa tensyon naming dalawa. At sa moment na ’yon, kahit paikot-ikot lang kami sa stable grounds, parang sapat na. Walang kailangang bilisan. Walang kailangang ipilit. I can take my time. Hindi ako nagmamadali. Wala akong hinahabol, wala akong gustong pilitin. Sanay akong maghintay lalo na kung ang kapalit naman ay isang bagay na totoo.

Always remember that, okay? Naramdaman kong tumango-tango ito sa akin. "Go back to sleep na, pasyal kita bukas." I hummed my favorite song to her until she fall asleep again. "...hmmm...Sometimes good-byes are not forever It doesn't matter if you're gone... ....I still believe in us together...mmm ....I understand more than you think I can You have to go out on your own...mmm ...So you can find your way back home...mmm"

Mariin akong pumikit at kinagat ang ibaba kong labi, damang-dama ang hapdi at sakit na para bang isang papel na pinunit. "Don't worry, I will move slowly. It will fade, trust me," pahayag niya ngunit ramdam ko pa rin ang sakit. He did what he said, naramdaman ko ang dahan-dahan nga niyang paggalaw bago unti-unting naglaho ang sakit at napalitan ng aming mga ungol na akala mo ay walang katapusan. "Ohhh, sh*t! Ahhhh! Sige pa…ohhh s-sir!"

Tapos Engli-' "So slow." "What?" "You act so slow I said." Tumaas kilay ko sa kanyang komento. Aba, hindi ba niya nakita kung gaano kabilis umalis ang babae sa isang sentence ko lang? Siya nga hindi makapagsali- "If you could've used your mind a little faster and shooed that stranger, then she wouldn't have harassed my body so long."

Nagmamaktol na eksplinasyon niya. “Sweetheart, that’s an unreasonable logic.” Malumanay na balik ng kanyang ama. “Hindi naman illegal na parehong landas ang tatawarin mo sa kaibigan mo. Other people’s opinions of you don’t absolutely matter, sweetheart. If you rely on their words, it’s no different from getting involve with toxic people. Your mind will only be poisoned over and over.” “But, Daddy…”

“We don’t have to rush into being a perfect couple. Let’s figure this out one step at a time.” Nagulat ako sa sinabi niya. Hindi ko alam kung bakit, pero parang nabawasan ang bigat sa dibdib ko. “You mean… no pressure?” Gunter nodded. “No pressure.” Napangiti ako nang bahagya. “Okay… I like that.” “Good.” Kinuha niya ang baso niya at tinaas ito na parang nag-aalok ng toast. “To taking it slow.”

Siya lang naman ang head namin. "Yes po ma'am." sabay sabay naming sambit. Nag simula na kaming naglakad ng dahan dahan, sa paglalakad hindi maiiwasang may matatamaan ka pero hindi ka kailangang maapektuhan, dahil mahuhuli ka. "Faster," wika ng nasa likuran ko.

Maging hindi ko lubos maintindihan 'to. Masakit man isipan ngunit kailangan mo rin sanayin ang sarili upang hindi bumitaw. Dahil sa bawat pag-ikot ng mundo? May nang-iiwan at may nanatili.
