For the record Ryles' real name is Rylee :) nickname lang po ang Ryles
~Rylee~

Hay nako last day ng retreat!  Wala akong gagawin mamaya sa bahay eh!  Mas boring dun kesa dito! For the first time in my life I enjoyed the retreat!

"Rylee! Starbucks tayo pag nakabalik na tayo!"

"Okie!"

*********************************

~Jacob~

What?! Pumayag si Rylee!!!! At hindi niya napansin na tinawag ko siyang Rylee!  Ha! Yes! Mission take her on a date without her knowing!

*********************************

~No P.O.V.~

Nakarating na sila sa school, ng 5:00 pm. Nahilo si Rylee, binuhat ni Jacob si Rylee sa clinic. At nagtiis siyang hintayin kung ok na siya.

*********************************

~Jacob~

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..."

"Rylee!"

"Anong Rylee?! Wag na wag mo akong tawagin ng ganyan, Teka sino ka ba?"

"Rylee Lynn Cerano, don't you remember?"

"Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!! I—I can't believe y—you fell for that!  Hahaha!"

she stuttered while laughing.

"Don't scare me like that!"

"Sorry and also sorry di tayo naka Starbucks."

"Magdinner na lang tayo."

"Ok."

Binuhat ko siya papuntang labas.

"Uhm...Jacob, I can walk you know."

"Ok."

I made sure her feet were on the ground before letting her go. Then tumawag ako ng taxi. Sumakay kami papuntang Harbor Square. Then I saw someone who I wished I would see again, but that was long ago.

*********************************

~Rylee~

I saw a girl and Jacob seemed happy to see her. I wonder who she is.

"Nice to see you again Narea."

Grr... Narea.

"You too, Jacob."

"Oh Uhm Rylee, this is Narea my—"

"Former girlfriend. Nice to meet you Rylee."

she said while shaking my hand.

"And Narea this is Rylee my—"

"Best friend since 4th grade. Thank you very much."

I said while shaking her hand.

"Hey Rylee, you don't mind if I borrow him for a sec won't you?"

"No, take your time."

"Thanks."

There's a nerve that wants me to kill her, but the fact that she's Jacob's ex pulls me back. Aynako Aynako Aynako!!!!!!!!!!!

*********************************

~Narea~

"Sige na Jacob!  Tayo na ulit!"

"Ayoko!  Ang tagal ko nang naghintay para sayo!  Ayoko na! I'm not your puppet to be yours forever!"

"But the long wait is over!  Sige na mahal parin kita!"

"Ako hindi na! Dati sinabi ko sayo kapag nakibreak ka sakin kahit balikan mo ko, Ok lang!  Pero dati yun I don't like you ANYMORE!"

"Bakit porke wala ka bang feelings sakin, ako ba walang feelings sayo?"

"Narea Santos! Marunong ka bang mag get-over?!"

"Eh di over na tayo!"

"Dati pa Narea!"

I walked away without saying a word.

*********************************

~Rylee~

I walked over to him.

"Jacob, I heard everything. I'm sorry." 

"It's OK Rylee, I really don't like her."

"Then who do you like?"

"Here."

He gave me a letter that seemed familiar.

"Hey isn't this the letter you had yesterday?"

He nodded.

Dear Rylee,

     Matagal ko na 'tong tinatago sayo, I would say it's been a year. I didn't have the courage back then, ngayon kaya ko na sabihin 'to sayo. Rylee Lynn Cerano, I like you, I always had. You're different, you're not that girly nor boyish. Plain and simple ka lang, but unique ka para sakin. Everytime I'm with you my heart beats faster and faster. All the time I wished for you to like me back. Do you?

                                            -Jacob

"Yes."

"Yes?"

"Yes. A thousand times YES! Yes. Yes. Yes."

"Sorry for the long wait."

"So alam mo na gusto kita."

"Rylee Lynn Cerano, matagal na."

Hinug ko siya. Palapit na si Jacob, but I put my finger on his lips.

"Wag muna, di pa na tayo junior eh. Basta, sakin ka lang ah."

I pulled his collar.

"Rylee dati pa."

"Eh Jacob si Na—"

"Narea? Choss! Not a big deal. Mas importante ka pa kesa dun. Sakin ka lang."

Then hinatid ako pauwi, and before he left he stroke my hair and said:

"Only you, only you."
