Selena's PoV

Nagising ako feeling someone hugging me... when I looked up, it was Jacob. I... lifted my hands up to his cheeks and held them... kita sa mukha niya that he shed tears again

"I shouldn't have showed up in your life didn't I? Sorry Jacob..."

I wiped his tears and silently moved away from him trying not to wake him up. I went straight to the door of the house.

Jacob's PoV

Narinig ko lahat ng sinabi niya... and when I opened my eyes she was about to get out kaya nagsalita na ko

"San ka na naman pupunta?"

She froze down hearing my voice before turning back on me

"Jacob..."

"Aalis ka? Ganun ganun na lang Selena? Akala ko ba lalaban tayo? Ha?"

"Jacob... lumalaban ako pero nahihirapan akong makita kayong nahihirapan sa sitwasyon ko... I... I wanted to live... pero, knowing you guys suffer because of me... I can't stand seeing that"

"We don't mind everything because we love you Selena!"

"And that's more painful! You're here suffering because you love me! At wala akong magawa para labanan tong putanginang sakit na to!"

"Selena..."

"Alam mo kung papipiliin ako? Okay na sakin yung mamatay ako kesa mahirapan kayo sakin eh. Kasi alam mo, Jacob? Awang awa na ko sa inyo! You're taking care of a useless person! Walang pag-asa tong sakit kong to! Just give up on me!"

"Give up on you? Nung iniwan mo ko ng walang dahilan ikaw pa rin inaalala ko, nung panahong ginulo mo buhay ko hindi ako nagreklamo, nung panahong bumalik ka sa buhay ko na hindi ko naiintindihan lahat, tinataboy kita pero alam ko sa sarili ko ikaw pa rin yung gusto ko, tapos ngayong meron akong sapat na rason para manatili sa tabi mo, sasabihin mo sakin give up? It's as if telling me to give up my life Selena! Sa tingin mo ba pansarili lang yung dahilan bakit ka namin pinaglalaban?! Sa tingin mo gusto lang namin na hindi kami maiwan?!"

Tahimik lang siyang nakatingin saken pero kita ko sa mga mata niya that she's sad. I sighed before I spoke up

"Pinaglalaban ka namin kasi alam namin gusto mong mabuhay Selena. Alam naming hindi ito ang gusto mong katapusan, and we're fighting with you. I'm fighting with you because I love you and I want you to continue your life the way it was before. Gusto ko na ulit makita yung Selena ko... yung masigla... masayahin... madaming energy na babae... yung babaeng minahal ko. Selena, this is not about us. Oo nahihirapan kami but so what? As long as you're alive... and with us, bawing bawi na yung pagod namin Selena"

"Jacob..."

I walked towards her and hugged her... "running away will never be an option okay? Never"

Bago pa man siya umiyak ulit nagsalita na ko at hinawakan ang mukha niya

"Show me your fighting spirit Selena Suarez... alam kong kaya mo to. Kaya natin to... enough with this tears okay?"

I smiled at her and she wiped her own tears before nodding "sorry... aww!"

"Stop playing hide and seek. Tsk."

Napangiti naman ako when she pouted caressing her forehead

Nilapit ko yung ulo niya and kissed it before I spoke up.

"Don't forget me, you brain." pabirong sambit ko

"Ginagawa mo? Adik ka ba?"

"Sayo? Oo"

"Jacob naman ehhh"

"What? I'm serious. Ano ba kasi ginayuma mo saken?"

"Hoy! Wala ah!"

"Ehh bakit hulog na hulog ako sayo? Ha?"

"Malay ko sayo!" Sambit niya but all I did was to pull her close and stare at her eyes. She did the same pero maya maya lang hawak na niya yung ilong ko.

"Nakakainis ang tangos talaga"

I lowered my head at inilapit ang ilong ko sa kanya.

"Wala akong ilong"

"Tch" she covered her face pero hinawakan ko lang ang kamay niya bago pinagdikit ang ilong namin

"I love you okay? I love you and I will never give you up"

"Jacob?"

"Hmm?"

"Date tayo"

"Date?"

"Naaalala pa kita ngayon kaya gusto ko idate yung boyfriend ko. Gusto ko ulit ipagmayabang na akin ka"

"Silly"

"Bakit ba? Dami dami nagkakagusto kaya sayo hmp"

"Sayo lang naman ako"
