Two months had passed and there is still the broken lover of Aly in the character of the great Denden Lazaro.

Ella: Besh? Hindi ka pa ba napapagod? You know I can't stand seeing you being broken over and over again for a consistent period of time. I know you love her, but please naman besh! Magtira ka para sa sarili mo.

Den: Honestly besh. Minsan parang nasanay na ako sa sobrang sakit ng nararamdaman ko. Gusto kong mas maramdaman yung sakit para mapagod na tong tanga kong puso. Para naman magkaroon na ako ng lakas ng loob na kalimutan na si Aly. Ang sakit sakit na Besh. Gusto ko na syang kalimutan. Sabi ni Den habang patuloy sa pagiyak.

Niyakap naman sya ni ella na ngayon ay umiiyak na din dahil ramdam na ramdam niya ang sakit na dinadala ni Den ngayon.

Ella: Sige lng besh, iiyak mo lng. I know it will not be easy but you will be better soon. That day will come that you can just walk across Aly without blinking your eyes. I just hope that your silly heart will cooperate with your genius mind. Haha. Stand up and show Aly what she will be missing. Go outside and look for someone. Ooops let me rephrase that. Go out and entertain your gorgeous suitors! Haha.

Marge: Hoy! Sigaw niya ka aly na nakatulala ngayon. Para kang tanga jan. No erase the word "parang" because you are really a piece of stupid shitty, lame person. My Gaaad! I can't believe you! You keep on drooling over Bang while ignoring the ONE that everyone will die just to have a seconds with.

Aly: Thanks for such a nice description of me.

Aly in her sarcastic tone. Now I'm really questioning my self kung bakit kita naging bestfriend. And for like I dn't know how many times I've told you. I love Bang and I just can't let go yet. And regarding with the ONE you're talking about. Alam kong alam mo na ang sagot ko jan.

Marge: And now I convinced myself that you really are stupid. Hindi ko na ipipilit Aly. Pero minsan akala natin yung mahal pa rin natin yung taong akala mo mahal mo pa. Pero meron na palang pumalit sa kanya. Hindi mo lang makita kasi nakasarado ang puso at isip mo. Anjan na pala sa harap mo yung hinahanap mo pero hindi mo makita kasi nagfifeeling far sighted ka kaya sa malayo ka nakatingin. You're like a stupid person trying to find something that is already in front of your face. Stop being stubborn and open your heart. Habang hindi pa huli ang lahat. No. Scratch that. I think your time is really wearing thin. Sabay tingin ni Marge sa isang direksyon ma sinundan din naman ni Aly.

Aly felt something strange in her heart.

Wanna know what they see?  It's Denden with Ther Aseron talking happily with each other. Ther is a consistent admirer of Den. But Den is not actually giving attention to her admirers and suitors. Well obviously not like this.

They seemed so close to each other. Aly thought. Kelan pa sila nagsimulang lumabas? Bakit hindi ko napansin yun? Tanong nanaman ni Aly sa sarili nya.

Nakalimutan nyang kasama nya si marge. Hanggang sa nagsalita na ulit ito.

Marge: I told you! Seems like you dn't have much of time para jan sa mga kaartehan mo. Tinapik ni Marge ang balikat nya tsaka ito umalis.

Pagdating ni Aly sa Dorm. Dumiretso agad sya sa kwarto nila ni Den. Feeling nya pagod na pagod sya. Pero wala pang ilang minuto dumating na din si Den.

Den: Ahmm, Aly? Pwede ba kitang makausap?

Aly: Yeah, sure. What is it Den?

Den: Aly, I'm starting to heal my heart. And starting to give your wish for me. Nagsimula na mabasag ang boses ni Den at nagsimula na syang umiyak.

Napatingin si Aly kay Den na nagtatanong.

Den: Ahmm... What I'm trying to say is I am ready to let you go, Aly. I think its time for me to gather up all my broken pieces together and start my life and move on. Sa tingin ko naman, more than four years is enough para masabi ko sa sarili ko na hindi ako basta sumuko. I fought for you til the very last ounce of my strength. Garalgal na ang boses ni Den.

Aly: Den I-i'm sorry...

Den: You dn't need to say sorry Aly. Though loving you is really painful, but as much as it has the power to kill me, loving you is what's bringing me back to life. Saying I'm giving up and letting you go doesn't mean that I dn't love you anymore. And please wag mo muna hilingin sa akin na wag ka na mahalin. Dadating din ako jan. It's not easy, but I promise I'm not gonna ruin your mood again because I keep on insisting to wipe your sweat. I'm not gonna ask you if you're hungry tapos pipilitin kang kumain. You will not see me staring at you during our math class and I know its pissing you off. Hindi na ako magpipilit na mapalapit sayo gaya ng gusto mo Aly. I'm making your wish come true! Atleast may nagawa naman akong tama sayo kahit papano.

Aly is speechless. Hindi nya alam ang sasabihin nya kay Den. Gusto nyang magsalita, pero anong sasabihin nya?

Den: Aly, I love you that's why I'm finally letting you go. Sorry if it took so long. Ngayon lang kasi ako nagkalakas ng loob. Now, time to start my new life. I'm to focused on my hearts pain that I forgot that there is so much in the world. I should go out and make myself free. Thank you Aly. Goodbye and I love you.

Aly couldn't speak. Den's last words hit her hard.

Yeah I'M TOO FOCUSED WITH MY PAINS I didn't see her. Before Aly could speak a word. Den is not on her sight anymore.

Marge is right. I'm such a big package of stupid, shitty and lame person.
