the next day drama...

The day after the proposal, we are set to go hiking at Mt. Makulot, Cuenca, Batangas. Thanks to Tin for organizing this day hike, to Gotch and Eric for being patient trail guides, to KJ for wanting to shout high up above (thus the reason for the hike), to Gelo & Faith for being fun companies, and of course, to Marvin, who agreed to come with me despite of his reluctance to come.

We were mum about the engagement thing. Only those who were able to witness the moment the night before were the ones who knew about it. I didn't want to tell other people yet. I wanted to tell my parents, college and high school barkada first.

It took us about two hours (with long stops which I forgot to count) to finish the hike. It has been a long time since we've done this again. It was what they call a Level 1 hike or a beginner's hike. There were steep and slippery trails. But we had such fun! Of course, not to mention all the jokes KJ threw to us that day, that definitely amused us. We even played "gestures" at the camp site. We climbed another highest point which I forgot the name (I'll get back on this post once I remembered). At first, I thought it would be impossible to reach, since it was too high seeing from afar, but then when we finally got there and the view was simply stunning! We had a 360 degree view of the Taal lake which includes the Taal  volcano.

I'll cut the hiking part short. After the view of Taal, we went back to camp site where Eric was waiting because someone has to watch our belongings.  Then we descended.  

So drama began when we were on the way home (in our place in Lipa). Nes was texting and calling about some important news that she was not informed about. I knew then that she was referring to the proposal thingy. But then I can't figure who might have told her. It's not that I intentionally did not want her to know but I am taking small steps at a time. But she was very frustrated, very mad. She felt that she wasn't important to the barkada that she had to know it last.

When we got home, I immediately checked my FB page and found that Ivy posted a message that made Nes react. I did not know how to explain it to Nes. Even Cris, Tin and KJ was a little worried about it.  It took me a while before I had to courage to explain to her ( hehe this just proves how scary can Nes be,haha, peace!) She didn't talked to me the first try. So I let it be. Then, she called back. It was so funny reminiscing now, we were crying while talking on the phone!!! I understood where she was coming from, she felt neglected finding out that she wasn't informed about it during the time the proposal happened. I explained to her what had happened that night. Then she was calmed. We were like two crazy girls crying and laughing at the same time!!! haha ( I missed those moments with Nes.. awww) The guys (especially Marvin and Eric) were laughing at us.  They just won't understand us girls.

So there, the drama was over.
