how you would try
stopping yourself from stopping me in experimenting or putting too much in
everything i cook
how you would always
discreetly watch, wait and catch me as i slowly sneak in my bed after a heavy
meal then nag me the entire day
how you will wait for
me the whole day and surprise me with a festive dinner (but also makes me sad
because you are such a great cook!)
how you would always
move away and just wait outside a grocery store just because you are too embarrass to buy "that"
how you would look at
me while i am sleeping; completely having no idea that i am actually staring back at you
how you would be
masungit when i am sweet and sweet when i am masungit: and realizing that being
on the same state makes us a disaster to each other
how you could be as
paranoid as i am about possibly overdoing so many things about us
how you would stop me
from locking the door whenever i use the bathroom
how you will giggle
whenever you recall the etymology of “kums” and “wabs”
and lastly, how you will probably
smile after reading this

thank you for staying and showing the strength in what others had given up to
