Marvelous Mark

Mark picked me up. As soon as he got off his car, he looked at me and smiled.

And he said, "Hello Panget..."
( I always call him that and now he calls me panget~translation: ugly).

I smiled. I am just overwhelmed. I haven't seen Mark for years! He seemed taller and he actually has hair now! hahahLOL. It's just I always knew him bald. And whoa, he has a six pack and "muscles." ( Maffi's kind of man....hehehe)

He gave me a hug and a kiss on the cheek. And he was looking at me weird.

And asked, " Did you straighten up your hair?"

I said, "YeP..."

And he goes, " I thought so, you look so...different ....More...lady like...not thugged up."

Ewww. So he held my hand and opened the car door and let me in and I watched him go to the driver's seat. It was weird seeign Mark for the first time in years. Like his perception of me, he, too, looked and acted different. More reliable, more mature, more gentleman, more sweet and romantic. It's not the Mark I knew before but I liked his improved version.

We went to Gladstones at Universal Citywalk. We ate there and talk liked ceaselessly about where we have been. Hre aske dme about Glenn and I avoided his stares. He uttered, "You wanna talk about it? I know something is wrong, Len. I can see it in your eyes." We were going to watch a movie but it was too late. The last full show starts at 11:30 and it's just not possible for neither of us to go because he has school in the mornign and I do, too. So we strolled along citywalk liek we used to. We always go to the music store. I dont' know if I mentioned that Mark used to be a logged-in DJ for Power 106- a hip hop radio station here in LA. He used ot DJ parties when we were young and we call him: DJ CLENZROCK. Clence is his middle name. But yeah, we always have the passion for music. He used to do my voicemail and everything. Then off we went to the toy stores, and watch the little kids play with the musical fountain in the middle of Citywalk.

I loved his smiles. I'll say, I am mesmerized. Partly because I missed looking at him. And the way he held my hands, it's just different. He's more gentle and concerned about me.

I told him what Glenn did and he said,
" Why do you go out with guys who have no sense of responsibility and focus?" And I gave him the "I-don't-know" look. Then he goes, "Good though, you dropped that a**hole. He's not worth your time. He never was. I am just sorry that it took you four years to realize that. But, you'll be fine, you're strong and pretty intimidating! You'll deal with it fine. plus...I am here."

The rest of the night flew smoothly. I just felt secure being with him. I can't say I am attracted to him like before. But I know, if ever, he's definitely a keeper. I wouldn't want to foresee events and decisions between me and Mark because I can't say I am over Glenn. But for this time being, I am thankful for his company and his "masculine" chest hehehe.

He took me home. We sat infront of our porch. He noticed that we built a brand new house and I pointed my bedroom. He smiled again.

And he said, "You dont' have your secret door anymore. Youc an't sneak me in."

And I said, "Who said I was going to sneak you in? Please, Mark, don't flatter yourself."

" I was just kidding. I thought I might get a chance. Maybe, someday...,"
He looked at me and waited for my reaction and said,
"Psyche!"

And then silence...

And then his eyes looked at mines and I felt as if I am melting.

"Can I kiss you?" he asked.

Dumbly, I said, " Huh?"

" I want to kiss you, is that okay?" he asked again.

Then he did. It was one of the most passinate kiss I've ever had. Glenn was a sloppy kisser. The restof my exes were, too. Mark was gentle. His lips were soft. And gosh he closed his eyes.( I peeked okay!?) He takes his time and enjoys it. He gave me a little smack and kiss on the forehead.

" I miss that...four years...damn that's a long time." he added.

I looked at my watch and I said I had to go because it was late and he has to go home all the way to their house in Glendale. I told him to go home. And then he kissed me again. I kind of pushed him away and said, " Go home now before your mom starts yellign at you when you tiptoe yourself to your room."

He took me to our front door and made sure I was safe and sound. He said he'll call me. I barely got in my room, the phone rang. It was him.

"Thank you for a lovely evening, " He said.

"You're welcome, " I said.

We hung up. Twenty minutes later, phone rang again.

" I forgot to say good night and I will call you tomorrow as soon as I get off school." It's him again!

I said Good night and thanked him as well.

" I'll miss you, panget" he said.

"Okay, I'll miss you, too panget...night!" I hunged up the phone.

I went to bed smiling. Whoa, Exactly 9 days after Glenn broke my heart, I am dating. And I am dating Mark! And I love it!
