if i were to write the prologue of our story, will i let it end easily or i’ll let the destiny wrote what is meant for us? do we really have a prologue? kasama ba ako sa prologo ng kaniyang istorya?
probably, not.
i’m just a girl that he thinks he is responsible to save. i hate his sympathy, i hate his pety because that makes me think that he likes me.
i cannot break rules. i will never fall in-love with him. not even a single bit.
“Lily, how does it feel to be in-love? how will you know that you already fell in-love?” i asked Lily. she loves romantic books and already had like 3 exes.
“base sa experience ko, Miyong. . .” her and her weird nicknames again. “masaya magmahal, mararanasan mo ‘yung mga bagay na hindi mo inaakalang mangyayari sa’yo, magagawa mo ‘yung mga bagay hindi mo inaakalang magagawa mo at mararamdaman mo ‘yung mga bagay na hindi mo inakalang mararamdaman mo tulad ng selos, ibang saya at kapayapaan. ‘yung tipong payapa ka kapag kasama mo ‘yung taong mahal mo but love is also selfless, selfless to the point that it’s destructive. mas masakit ‘to ‘pag unrequited e’, ayyy basta, wala kang ibang iisipin kun’di ang kasiyahan ng taong mahal mo hanggang sa hindi mo na maisip ang sarili mo. love is unexpected, destructive and selfless. it’s like making a fire, not knowing it might cause a massive fire. a fire that may burn all of the things around you. . . or you, yourself.”
“hmmm, kailan nga ba malalaman kung in-love ka na? siguro kapag lagi mo silang iniisip, bumibilis ang tibok ng puso mo kapag nakikita mo siya para kang kinakabahan sa presensya niya, hindi mo maiwasan na tignan siya at siya lang ang nakikita mo o sa kaniya ka lang nakatutok sa dagat ng mga tao or the feeling of willingness to kill for that person, die for that person and even stay alive for that person.”
natulala ako sa lahat ng sinabi ni Lily, pag dating talaga sa usapan ng pag-ibig ay talagang mapapagkatiwalaan ang mga opinyon niya. through her books, she knew the perspectives of almost all the type of girls and even boys. alam na alam niya ang salitang pagmamahal hindi lang dahil nababasa niya ito, kun’di dahil naranasan niya na rin ito.
“pero masakit magmahal, Miyong.”
all through that day, i never stop thinking of what Lily said.

napakunot ang noo ko dahil sa nakuha kong text. huh? mayroon na namang malakas ang loob para i-scam ako ah.
me:
tangina mo, ako pa talaga napili mong i-scammin!
unknown number:
haha
lalong nag-alburoto ang kaluluwa ko dahil sa text ng scammer na ‘yon! mukha ba’kong natutuwa sa kaniya???
unknown number:
this is Yule, Luna.
me:
aba, how do you know Yule? at’saka hindi ako nagpapa-uto sa mga kagaya mo! tigil-tigilan mo’ko kung ayaw mong i curse on you here on chat! i’ll definitely tell Yule that someone is using him for scams like this! maghanda ka na to be behind the bars!
unknown:
you really don’t believe me, huh?
my phone suddenly ring that makes me shock, nabitawan ko pa ‘yon! tumatawag ‘yung scammer! lumabas ako ng bahay upang sagutin iyon. nasa tapat ako ng gate namin.
“hey?”
“fuck.” napamura ako nung makilala ko ang boses na iyon. si Yule nga at-- napagkamalan ko siyang scammer! why naman kasi gano’n pang-first move niya!?! is he stupid or just dumb??
“you curse alot, hm? i’ll add that to the list of your bad behaviours, Lu.”
my heart skipped a beat when he called me that. it’s like a nickname i was longing for and what i’m finding but i just heard it for the first time right now.
“bad behaviours? what behaviours of mine is there?” i chuckled. act cool, Mione! he shouldn’t know that you are affected by what he called you!
“let’s see..”
“ofcourse, what i just added. you curse alot, you are a people pleaser, you can’t open up, you care alot by other people’s opinion, you act like you are strong but you’re actually not and you don’t care even if you are not you.”
his words hit the right spot. tangina. ngayon ko lang na-realize ang mga bagay na ‘yan. how can he know that when me, myself is not aware of it?
napatakip ako sa bibig ng unti-unti ng tumulo ang mga luha sa pisngi ko. tangina, hindi naman ako iyakin e’. bakit kapag kausap ko siya ay lagi niya akong pinapaiyak?
“look at your left, Lu.” tumingin ako sa kaliwa ko at nakita ko siyang nakatayo habang nakasuot ng blazer at pants na beige, puting t-shirt sa loob at nakasalamin na kulay itim. may dala-dala siyang paper bag.
dahan-dahan siyang lumapit sa akin at pinunasan ang luha ko gamit ang kaniyang hinlalaki.
“i’m sorry, Lu... shhh. i’m sorry i made you cry.”
napatulala ako ng bigla niya akong yakapin.
“bumibilis ang tibok ng puso mo kapag nakikita mo siya para kang kinakabahan sa presensya niya”
no, no, no... it can’t be.. pero ayokong kumawala.
if it’s a sin, then i’m a sinner.
