Eclipse

thirty-one.

Today is our anniversary, so I decided to make breakfast in bed for her. I'm so glad that she liked it. May pa despedida lunch ang tropa ko kaya maaga akong nag ready. I promise to be home for dinner.

"Bro, kakayanin nyo ba ni Luna yung LDR?" Isaac said.  I smiled bitterly as I nodded my head.

"Mamimiss ka namin bro." Xavier said as he faked a cry. "Gago." I said while laughing.

"Babalik ka naman para mag take ng board exam di'ba?" Nicole asked me. "Yeah."

"Mamimiss ka talaga namin pare." Enzo said as he also faked a cry. Binato ko naman sya ng tissue. We were laughing noong biglang nahulog sa sahig ang baso at nabasag, pinalinis nalang namin iyon.

Pag-uwi ko sa condo ay patay lahat ng ilaw. Then there I saw the person that I treasure the most.

"Happy anniversary, mahal na mahal kita"

I closed my eyes as I make my wish. "Don't take her away from me. She's my home, my other half, she's my happiness. Babalik ako, at sa pagbalik ko papakasalan ko si Luna."

I promised to cook for her kaya naman nag luto ako ng sinigang. I examined her reactions, and I instantly felt joy when she liked the sinigang that I cooked for her.

We were sitting at the couch, lounging. I am planning  on giving her my gift right now. I hope she'll love it. I bought her a promise ring earlier noong nag lunch ako kasama ang mga kaibigan ko.

It was a dainty gold knot ring with small diamonds on it. I am planning on giving this ring to her as a promise na kapag bumalik ako dito sa Pilipinas ay pakakasalan ko sya.

She gave me a box, I asked her if I can open it but she said na I should open it when I'm in Australia. Nag wonder talaga ako kung ano ang laman ng box na iyon, pero hinayaan ko nalang.

Okay, your turn. Close your eyes." I said. she closed her eyes. "Open." I said as I opened the velvet box. My heart softened when I saw a tear escaped from her eye.

"It's a promise ring. I promise to marry you pag balik ko dito." I said as I inserted the ring on her finger. I immediately embraced her as he cried so hard. It breaks my heart seeing my princess cry.

Parang gumuho ang mundo ko sa salitang binitawan ni Luna.

"It's time for us to let go Solasta."

Hindi ko alam kung ano ang nangyayari, what does she mean?  I'm so confused. My thoughts are all over the place.

"I'm sorry, I'm breaking up with you."

Parang napakadali lang sa kanya na tapusin itong relasyon namin? Bakit? Bakit nangyayari 'to?

"No...L-luna, P-please.....don't do this to me." I tried so hard to speak, hindi ako makapag-salita ng maayos kakaiyak. I tried to pull her into a hug pero kumawala sya.

"I love you so much, so I'm letting you go. Huwag na natin ipilit yung relationship natin Sol. Mapapagod lang tayo pareho." She said as she cried harder.

"That's bullshit!" I said as I punched the wall. That's bullshit! Hindi pa namin nasusubukan ay sumuko na agad sya. Hindi manlang binigyan ng chance?

"Goodbye, I love you." She said as she ran away. Leaving me here, helpless and broken.

She's gone, the love of my life is gone. I continued crying until there's no tears left. I have a few hours left before my flight to Australia, so I decided to write her a letter.
