[Hello Matt?!]

[Neira andito na ako sa may playground asan ka na ba?]

[Matt..Gabing-gabi na bakit ba pinalabas mo pa ako?]

[Sige na., gusto lang kitang makita?]

[Pwede ka naman pumunta sa bahay eh, nakakatakot 

na kaya andilim dilim]

[Asan ka na?]

[Malapit na.]

[Will I see you smile again?] mahinang tanong ni Matt.

[Matt. Ano ba sinasabi mo? Andito na ko? Asan ka ba?]

[Lumingon ka na lang] 

[ANo bang kaloko-] 

Lumingon nga si Neira at natigilan sya.

Sa halip na si Matt ang makita nya ay isang taong

hindi nya inaasahan.

She stood frozen in front of him. She was just staring and

she could feel tears threatening to spill out. Just seeing

his face, seeing his hypnotic eyes made her heart pound

like it's about to fall off on her chest.

She missed him badly. She was like staring at him for 

an hour. Natauhan lang sya nang makita nya itong

ngumiti.

Renz gave her an awkward smile. He missed her so much

that she badly want to kiss her lips. Draw her into a

tight embrace that will almost break her bones.

Halos walang makapagsalita sakanila.

"I..I thought you were in Korea" bulong ni Neira

na nakatitig pa rin kay Renz.

It's just about a month but it feels like it's been

a hundred years before they met again. They truly

missed each other. Even their voice, such a music

to their ears.

"I'm sorry I lied..I'm sorry that I hurt you" panimula ni Renz.

Ang kanina pang luhang pinipigilan ni Neira ay sunud-sunod nang

bumagsak na parang waterfalls.

"You're crying again," Renz sighed and started wiping her tears.

Tumungo lang si Neira, as her tears can stop from falling.

"I'm sorry..I'm sorry...I'm sorry..sorry" patuloy lang

sa paghingi ng tawad si Neira habang humihikbi.

"Hush...Peanut...Hush.." hinawakan nito ang ulo ni Neira

at hinaplos haplos.
