Glimpse of the Star (EUPHORIA series #1)

A/N: Perfect Timing is one of my stories na nabulok na lang sa draft ko, it is inspired by the movies.. Sid and Aya and Meet me in St. Gallen.

I washed my face and get out of the restroom just to see Nessa standing in front of it. Nakatingin lang siya sa 'kin na parang binabasa niya kung anong nararamdaman ko. Ngumiti ako para hindi siya mag-isip ng kung ano.

"I'm just here tih" Nessa wispered, i smiled again and walk closer to her and hugged her.

"I know.." I said.

Pinalampas na muna namin ang mga taong naglalabasan sa sinehan bago kami lumabas at umuwi na.

Hating gabi na pero gising pa rin ako at nag-aantay ng text ni Yeshua. Hindi pa kasi niya 'ko nababati ng 'Happy Valentine's day' kahit sa text man lang. Malapit nang matapos ang araw na 'to pero ni-text o tawag o kahit magpadala ng flowers.. wala.

I quit! Matutulog na 'ko! I'm about to close my eyes when my phone rings! I open it and saw Yeshua is calling.

"..." I just answered his call.

[Kung ako ang may ari ng mundo,
Ibibigay ang lahat ng gusto mo.
Araw-araw pasisikitin ang araw,
Buwan-buwan pabibilugin ko ang buwan,
Para sa 'yo, para sa 'yo...] He sang over the phone.

"..."

[Happy Valentine's Day, Baby!] He yelled. Napatingin ako sa oras sa phone ko.

"It's already 12 midnight, you're late" I said, trying not to sound pissed.

[Aw, i'm sorry Baby. I tried to find time to call you and greet you 'Happy Valentine's Day' but my work ate my time for you] He sighed, i also heard his sob. Is he crying? [But i guess, i'm not late to say i love you, right?] He tried to laugh but i can still hear his sob.

"Are you crying?" I asked.

[Hindi po..] Bigla akong natawa, na-imagine ko kasi yung face niya na nakanguso na naman while saying that [Are you laughing?] He asked, bigla akong napatikom ng bibig.

"Uhm.. uhm. How was your day?" I change the topic.

[It's a very tiring day..] He said. Every words he said.. ramdam ko yung pagod sa boses niya.

"Why don't you rest na? Tinawagan mo pa 'ko. I'm about to sleep na rin e" Gagi, bakit bigla akong naging conyo?

[Why do i feel you don't want to talk to me na?] Ay nahawa nga ata ako sa kanya.

"Hindi naman sa gano'n.. sabi mo, pagod ka 'di ba? Ano bang ginagawa ng taong pagod? Edi nagpapahinga" I said like i'm talking to a child.

[But you are my rest.] He said like a kid.

"Rest in peace. Magpahinga ka na!" I said in a motherly tone.

[Opo..] Na-imagine ko na naman na nag-pout siya! Kainis [Love you po.] He sounds mad pero para sa 'kin ang sweet no'n! Ang lala ko na.

"Sa'n napunta yung 'I'?"

[Next time na lang, kapag bati na tayo.] He said, aba nagtatampo ang bata.
