Right Time, Right Moment

Ending

"Naniniwala ka ba sa second life?" - once in a while na tanong ko kay Ton

Ihahatid nya ako sa terminal ng jeep. Ashton being that protective baka nga ihatid pa ako hanggang sa bahay kong di pumayag ako.

You were a great guy Ashton.

"Siguro. Pero meron ba non?" - usisa mo din.

Sa tagal na nating magkakakilala, we almost got the same likes and dislikes.

We both like mysterious things cause its thrilling.

We both like astronomy cause its like some masterpiece.

We both like magic tricks cause it's entertaining.

We both don't like horror movie cause we prefer rom-com.

We prefer balad songs than disco.

We both don't like vegetables, that's why we're this slim.

We both don't like too sweet foods, cause we like it spicy.

We love chuckie, but hated yakult.

We love cheese sticks, and hated vegetable lumpia.

We both wish for Park Hyungsik and Park Boyoung to date in real life, and we both wish for NamLee's comeback.

And most especially,

We both like sunsets, cause its the only ending that's beautiful and captivating.

"Sabihin nalang natin na meron, would you still choose to be Ashton again?" - usisa ko.

Kasi ako, ill still be Phenelophine. And I'll make up to that mistake I've done.

Not loving you back.

Huminto ka naman sa paglalakad. At animoy malalim ang iniisip.

And here I am, examining every part of your features.

Bakit di ko napansin to noon?

Why didn't I find you this handsome?

Why didn't I find you to be this attractive?

Why didn't I choose you that day?

Bakit pinalampas ko?

Bigla ka namang humarap saken. Kaya agad akong lumingon sa ibang dereksyon.

"Siguro I'll still choose to be Ashton." - sabi mo

Magsasalita pa sana ako but you cut my words.

"If you choose to be Phenelophine too."

That statement of yours might be nothing for you pero ang laking sampal saken yun.

Parang sinampal ako sa katotohanang, I'm stupid enough for loving you back.

Sampal saken kung gaano ako kaboba for not realising it sooner.

...

" Ashton, pwede ba kita maka usap?"

You're busy with your phone but you manage to put it down and face me.

Gusto kong mapangiti. Knowing that andun parin yung impact nya saken.

He would still choose me above anyone. Right?

"Ano yun Pin?"

I inhale and exhale some air. Ayokong magmukhang ewan pero kabadong kabado ako.
