It's been a year now since my mom passed away and Deanna broke up with me. A lot of things has changed. I lived alone in my apartment, I study in the morning and at night I worked at a club as a singer since I have to support my own. And if you're wondering where Deanna went, she obeyed her parents and went to America. She wasn't able to go to my mom's funeral and ever since we broke up she didn't dare to talk to me anymore. I still love her, I miss her everyday and the worst thing is that I can't do anything.

(Friday Night)
I was on the backstage waiting for the emcee to introduce me. When she's done I quickly went to the stage.. damn there's a lot of people tonight.

"Good Evening, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to CARPE DIEM CLUB! Tonight I'm gonna sing a song which is really close to my heart. It's been a year now since me and my lover — ex lover rather, broke up. And I still miss that person everyday."

I'm about to start the song when I saw a familiar face entered the club.

it's DEANNA

And she's with Luigi..

FUCK.

"So, this song is for her." I said and she looked at the stage and our eyes met.

[I swear I see the seasons change
More often than I see your face
November came and went
The Summer left without a trace
And I'm left with distance on my mind
Was it me that caused you to just pack up and leave?
When you did you took everything
I still hate seeing you without me

I'm better with you, you're better with me
I still miss all our nights
Even fights were all better with you
You're better with me
There is nobody else who can love me the way that you do
Better than you
I still miss all our days and the way you would carry me through
I'll carry you too
There is nobody else who could love you the way that I do

Who can love you the way that I do?

You filled my place with his embrace
His touch was cold, you never came
You filled a hole that's in my soul
I wish you felt the same
But is it too late for things to change?
It was you, because leaving is just what you do
When you finally got something to lose
I just don't feel the same without you

If there's a way for us to learn to forgive
There's nothing that I, that I wouldn't give
There's still a space that I have buried away
It's deep in my heart, it's always your place]

We stared at each other through the entire song. I didn't even looked at the audience, my eyes were focused on her. After I finished the song everyone were screaming and clapping.

"Thank you!" I finally broke the staring contest and left the stage. I went to the comfort room and sighed. Okay, Deanna's with Luigi. Nice.. Luigi has a crush on Deanna he even migrated in Miami to follow Deanna. He didn't know that Deanna and I were in a relationship before. Couple of minutes had passed I opened the door and was shocked to see Deanna.

"Hey." she said

I'm about to walk away from her but she pulled me.

"Dude, what's your problem?!" I said in frustration.

"Can we talk?"

"..."

"Please.."

"Talk about what?"

"Look, I'm sorry for leaving you. I was scared  to fight for you.."

"Stop! Di ko kailangan ng sorry mo."

"Please.. just talk to me." she knelt on the ground

"You left me, Deanna. What do you expect?  I'll welcome you with open arms?! You know what, FUCK YOU!" I walked away.

I wanted to talk to her..
I wanted to tell her how much I missed her..
I wanted to tell her that I've been waiting for her..
I wanted to tell her how much I love her..
But I just can't .. I can't ..
She broke me. I've had enough.
