Christmas Came Early is a story of my December 2020 Escapade.
On the last quarter of 2020, I got so busy with work that I haven’t gotten the time to enjoy my sex life. I decided to revisit Tinder to spark some fun.
T’was Mid October when I met a very interesting guy. On first look he was sexually attractive with that grin on his face. He was 35 years old, charming and outgoing (based on his Tinder photos). I swiped right and I was surprised to know that we matched. I immediately left him a message (ganon ako when a guy really catches my attention).
Me: Hey there! You’re name sounds interesting, how do you pronounce it?
I left him a message around 7 in the evening. Wasn’t really expecting a reply since that normally happens to me on Tinder.
9pm the next day, I got a response from him.
Him: Hello, you pronounce it the way it is. Nice to e-meet you btw.
When I got his response I laughed a little. He has a point – bakit ko pahihirapan ang sarili ko in pronouncing it when it’s already spelled out. I hit reply and the rest was history.
2months went by and it was already December. Christmas was a bit different last year as we all know and it’s because of the pandemic. I already anticipated a boring Christmas since some of my family members were able to come home.
Me: What are your plans for the holidays?
Him: I’ll be spending it at home with the family.
Me: Oh right, your Mom wants you at home for the holidays.
Him: Yup! Perks of being an only son. haha Plus, I get to decide for the menu.
Me: Nice! How about your sister? She’ll be joining you naman?
Him: Yeah, we will all spend it sa bahay. Mom won’t let it slide.
Me: I see. When are you leaving?
Him: On the 22nd. Bakit, sasama ka?
Me: haha if sasama ba ako, will you introduce me to your Mom?
Him: haha too soon to say, but why not?
Me: haha okayyy. Kidding aside, anong trip mo ngayon?
Him: I’m just driving around the city. Di pa kasi ako inaantok and I’m trying to see if na set-up na ang decorations sa kabilang Municipality.
Me: Oh I see. I heard na baka walang set-up this year.
Him: Really? That sucks! I look forward to seeing it pa naman.
Me: Maybe sabay sya sa kapitolyo? Who knows. I will ask around para I can give you an update tapos isama mo ako!
Him: Sure! That would be nice! Let me know when.
Me: Yes, definitely!
Him: Do you want to join me now?
Me: Join you saan?
Him: I’ll pick you up sa inyo and maybe we can grab some ice cream.
Me: Ice cream? At this hour?
Him: haha bakit? pati ba naman ice cream may curfew?
Me: haha wala naman pero it’s almost 10pm and may curfew.
Him: haha all week I’ve been travelling at this hour pero I was never called to the side to inform me na may curfew. I can’t really feel it.
Me: Talaga? haha
Him: What now? Where should I pick you up?
Me: Oh sorry, I can’t go out anymore. I’m already in my pajamas. haha
Him: So what? I’m also wearing pambahay, dapat ba formal? haha
Me: No, I didn’t mean it like that. Naka night dress na ako, nakakahiya ng lumabas.
Him: Atleast you have your clothes on. Cge na.
Me: haha good point but hindi na nga muna.
Him: hmmmmm? Unless if you’re wearing something like this (he sent me a photo) then I suggest you stay in bed.
Me: haha nothing like that, mine is just the regular ones. For special occasions yan ehh haha
Him: May special occasions pa talaga? haha so di ka talaga pwede?
Me: Yeah, sorry. Medyo cozy na din ako sa bed ko.
Him: Oh I see, I guess you’re more comfortable in bed than beside me.
Me: hala sya! Di naman sa ganon, curfew na din kasi.
Him: haha I was just kidding! Isa pa, kung kanina ka pa lumabas, naka-uwi ka na sana. haha but maybe next time.
Me: Sorry, babawi ako next time.
I was guilty for not joining him. It was his first invitation. I don’t know but I was excited – ang sarap ng tulog ko.
Behind the gentleman approach something was unclear to me. So I decided to ignite our conversation.
Him: What can you about the newly opened resto in SM?
Me: It’s okay, We ate there last week and so far masarap naman. Di ka pa nakakakain doon?
Him: Not yet, I’m still waiting for my friends feedback.
Me: Oh okay pero you’ve tried that other place for samgyup?
Him: Yeah, we’ve been there. But will also try the one in SM, will ask my colleagues to join me.
Me: You should try it para you can compare.
Somewhere in my head I was expecting an invitation for dinner. haha assuming si Tita ehh. Ouch!
Me: So, aside from samgyup what else is your favorite food?
Him: Oh samgyup is not my favorite food, I just like the method of cooking. But to answer your question, I like this food in one of the restos in Makati. It’s so good.
Me: Okay, that’s like something na I’m not familiar haha how about dessert?
Him: I’ll go for blueberry cheesecake.
Me: Really? One of my favorites, lalo na yung sa Bo’s Coffee!
Him: Yeah! I like that too! Wala naman din akong ibang nabibilhan ng cheesecake.
Me: Hmmmm? Do you need me to suggest a few places for you? Do you have any desert in particular?
Him: haha are you a food guide? cge nga, where’s the best chocolate cake in town?
Me: Sabi nila, it’s from this resto ***.
Him: Oh right! I like their cookie monster!
Me: See? I told you so!
Him: haha yes! Ikaw? What’s your favorite dessert?
Me: Anything that involves chocolate.
Him: hmmmm? good choice. Chocolate cake is best paired with black coffee. Perfect meryenda!
Me: Or in some cases it’s best to be spread.
Him: I’m not a fan of chocolate spreads.
Me: Me either, more on peanut butter ako.
Him: Right! But you can spread chocolate elsewhere.
Me: haha elsewhere you mean on you?
Him: haha really?
See? I told you there was something! It just needs a little push. Ilang araw din na ganyan ang conversation namin, until one night.
Me: So you’re driving right now?
Him: Yeah!
Me: Umuwi kana kaya, curfew na!
Him: haha wala ngang curfew! Ikaw? What are you doing?
Me: I’m watching my favorite netflix series – Forensic Files.
Him: Oh interesting? Bakit ganyan? Gusto mong pumasok sa NBI?
Me: haha nope! FBI pwede, not NBI.
Him: Grabe maka-nope. Bakit anong meron sa FBI?
Me: haha pakiramdam ko astig ang mga babae doon eh, especially when they read you your rights.
Him: Hmmmm? So kung ako, ipapadakip mo?
Me: Ofcourse!
Him: Where will you bring me?
Me: Oh I’ll tell them to place in Alcatraz. haha kaso Isolated nayon ngayon.
Him: Hmmmm? In an isolated island. haha gusto mo ata akong ma-solo.
Me: haha may ganon eh noh?
Him: haha yes! Let me guess, you’ll be feeding me chocolates.
Me: Oh no, I won’t! I’ll be spreading that on you.
Him: Then what will you do?
Me: I’ll slowly lick you, until your good.
Him: Damn it! This foreplay is taking too long! Let’s get this over with.
Me: haha did I turn you on? I didn’t mean it.
Him: haha oh yes you did! You did more than just turning me on!
Well, that escalated quickly! I guess, I’m not good with making life choices. haha

Me: What’s up?!
