CAS' POV

Walang paramdam, walang nagpapaalala sakin sakanya, walang nagbibigay sakin ng dahilan para maalala siya.

Was that night all made up?

Was that night for me to continue to believe that she'll come back to me?

I don't know..

I remember that time na hinatid ko na siya pauwi, she's quiet. Very quiet.. that it started to bother me.

Alam kong normal na para kay Electra ang maging tahimik sakin sa bago niyang personality ngayon, pero parang may kakaiba sakanya ngayon at hindi ko ma-point out kung ano iyon.

"Electra.."  I called her.

I saw how she looked at me then she let out a scoff. "Its Felice." She seems irritated.

I smiled remembering that moment yesterday when she hugged me, trying to comfort me from the thunders. Siguro inakala ko lang na maibabalik ko pa siya sa dati, pero hindi na pala. Ginawa niya lang yun para hindi ako mag panic.

Ginawa niya lang yun because she was left with no choice.

Akala ko lahat ng magagandang bagay na ginagawa mo sa kapwa - lalo na sa taong mahal mo, ay masusuklian ka din ng mabuti.. but I guess that its never true. It'll never happen.. some people are willing to do anything for love while others tend to take advantage of it.

Love depends on how you handle it, its either you take care of it or break it.. sabagay, nasa tao lang din naman nakadepende ang pagmamahal.

"Its kinda funny that I met you as Aera and love you as Electra. Hindi ko alam kung 'pano ko pakikiramdaman si Felice. One second she's cool, the next she's being rude." I smiled at her completely forgetting to analyze my words before saying it.

"That's the problem with you.." I saw how she looked at me for a while before looking straight at the road. "Hindi mo kayang mapanindigang magmahal. One minute you loved someone, tas pag may nakita kang mas special, makakalimutan mo na yung nauna."

Napatingin naman ako sakanya. Not really sure what to feel.

Ganun ba ang tingin niya sakin? Ganun ba talaga ako kagago?

"Aera. Electra. O Felice, ikaw lang yun. Ikaw lang ang minahal ko."

Narinig ko ang pagtawa niya, a hint of disgust is evident in it. "Minahal? Oh please. I know that you're stuck with that weak little child. All this time, yung batang dependent na si Aera lang ang minahal mo!"

Di ko makuha ang point ni Electra. She's talking about Aera na parang hindi siya yun. She's talking like she's never a part of her.

"Si Aera, si Electra, at si Felice. Ikaw yun. Bakit ano bang problema kung iniisip ko si Aera habang minahal kita as Electra, not knowing na iisa kayo? That means na mahal nga kita that's why that I can see that little girl in you." Di ko talaga alam kung anong mararamdaman, masyado akong frustrated sa pinaguusapan namin ngayon.

"Yun na nga ang point! Hindi mo ako minahal bilang Electra, minahal mo lang ako kasi pinapaalala kita sa dating ako. Paano kung hindi ako si Aera? Paano kung ako lang si Electra, plainly Electra.. tingin mo ba mamahalin mo ako, bilang ako?" This time I can see in her eyes that she's close to tears. Pinipigilan lang niya.
