OS60: UNTITLED

He gave me his ring. I mean our promise ring then he smiled and said "Goodbye, baby."

Nagdadalawang-isip akong tanggapin ang singsing. April 1 ngayon at sabi nga nila fool's day, araw ng mga manloloko. Umiling ako sa kanya.

"Di ko tatanggapin iyan" sabi ko. He sadly sighed. "I'm not fooling you around, Stacey."

Tinawag niya ako sa pangalan ko.

"Happy April Fool's day!" maligaya kong sabi ngunit nananatiling seryoso ang mukha niya. Is it really true?

"Baby..."

"Wag mo na akong tawagin na ganyan." seryosong sabi niya.

Bakit ganito? Wala naman kaming problema diba? Fool's day ngayon diba?

Pero bakit?

Kinuha niya ang kamay ko at binigay sa aking ang singsing. Ngumiti siya at hinalikan ako sa pisngi. "Til our next time" sabi niya at umalis.

He was married by a woman, kaya ba iniwan niya ako kasi may mahal na siyang iba? Probably yes.

She was his prologue. I am the conflict and the extra. But of course, she is always be his epilogue.
