[ Isagani's Love ]

Lia's POV,

I'm currently sitting down on my bed, I don't know what to do with the letter. Should I tell Vi about this? I just can't keep this alone with me. I just can't handle it alone. I grew up doing all the things by myself. I'm sort of independent kind of lady. But this mysterious book, I can't handle it alone. Besides, there's a lot of libraries around the Philippines, how am I suppose to get there?

I suddenly remember my phone, sa sobrang pagkahumaling ko sa mga libro, nakalimutan ko ng may cellphone pa pala ako. I have a dump account on twitter. Well, I don't usually post anything on my social media. Marami na din akong nalampasan na mga issue this past few years. Hindi naman naka-private ang account na 'to, maybe I'll just used this instead.

Maybe this is the sign that the owner of the book wants me to do, to post it on a social media. "Tsk, ba't hindi ko kaagad naisip yon ah," I scratched my nape and let out a deep sigh. "Maybe this social media can help me to unite all the books."

I put my phone back on my table and took the letter that I've found. "Ang sarap siguro sa pakiramdam ang mabigyan ng ganitong letter," yes, I admit that I belong to millions of youth right now, but I really want to experience the old passion way.. those old passion way of courtship. Yung harana tapos may dalang bulaklak at may palitan ng mga liham.

"How does it feel to be like you Liwayway?" I murmured as I looked to the letter. I slowly opened it carefully, I don't want to tear it apart. This kind of letters and books are some sort of treasures.

Napakagabok ng envelope na pinaglagyan ng liham, ngunit dahil silyado ng maigi ang envelope, hindi gaanong nadumihan ang papel nito sa loob. Ngunit bakas sa papel na napakatagal na panahon na mula ng maisulat ang liham na ito. Ang papel ay nagkulay kayumanggi, habang ang gilid na parte ay nagagato.

I slowly unfold the paper, sa estado ng papel, anumang oras ay maaaring mapunit. "Para nga kay Liwayway.."

Mahal kong Liwayway,

       Nais kong ipahayag ang aking pagmamahal sa pamamagitan ng pag-iipit ng mga liham sa aking handog na mga libro, gayundin sa mga paborito mong libro. Nadarama kong hindi matutumbasan ng mga bituin sa langit ang tyansang mabasa mo ang liham ko para sa'yo, ngunit ang pusong nagmamahal ay punong-puno ng pag-asa na sana'y magsanib pwersa ang bhong kalawakan upang ang lihamna ito ay makarating sa kanyang paroroonan.
