My Boss is a Psycho

13: memories

[Ji-hoon POV]

he's lying down on his bed with his arms in his forehead with his eyes shut closed.

he wakes up from his nightmares, bangungot na 11 years na niyang pilit tinatakbuhan ngunit paulit ulit nag pi play sa isip niya and that caused him frustration and being emotional too. but this time it's more frustrating for him dahil unti unti nang nagiging vague sa memories niya ang muka nang taong yon.. nang taong ginawa niyang mundo 11 years ago.

that nightmare makes him sad idagdag pa ang panahon na tila nakikisimpatya sa nararamdaman niya, makulimlim at tila nalulungkot din na gaya niya

"it's been a year seki ahh.. and i'm scared.. i'm scared of forgetting your face completely. your memories still remains here but i can't clearly remember your face. and it makes my heart hurts more." he said as his tears suddenly falling to his cheeks

once again, a cold wind embrace him

ilang saglit pang nanatili sa ganoong ayos si ji-hoon bago siya dahan-dahang mapaupo nang biglang may maalala

"the mint cake" sigaw nang isip niya na nakaisip nang solusyon kung pano maaalala ang taong tila nakakalimutan na nang isip niya

he suddenly remember the mint cake from that caffe that him and yoonki went before kaya mabilis siyang tumayo mula sa pagkakahiga niya sa kama at kinuha ang coat niya upang isuot bago lumabas nang condo niya he decided to buy that cake for her birthday so he can reminisce all her memories with him,

today is her birthday that's why he took his rest day today but not to celebrate her birthday but to reminisce all her memories and that way he can celebrate her birthday with her aside from visiting her ngunit tila hindi na nakikiisa ang memory niya at mukang unti unti nang nakakalimot sa babaeng buong puso niyang minahal ngunit binawi agad sakanya nang may kapal then he suddenly remember that mint cake na nakakapag pabalik nang malinaw sa memory niya sa lahat nang mga pangyayaring unti unti nang binubura nang isip niya

[Jiya's POV]

since nasa forecast na may bagyo maaga na niyang pinauwi ang mga tauhan nila at nagdesisiyon na magsara na din nang maaga upang hindi siya abutan nang malakas na ulan doon ngunit sa kalagitnaan nang pag gawa niya nang inventory at report  may pumasok pang customer na hindi ata nabasa ang sign sa labas na sarado na sila

j: good day sir we're sorry but we're-- natigilang sabi ni jiya nang magtaas siya nang tingin mula sa ginagawa niya at makita kung sino ang dumating na customer niya [sigh] "sorry we're close" diretsang sabi niya dito without any emotions

jh: can i buy a piece of cake? bago ka magsara? i just really need it now.. he said with the sadness can trace on his face at hindi naman yon nakaligtas sa paningin ni jiya but still she said no..

j: no.. we're closed--

jh: please! [teary eyes]

j: [sigh] what flavor? she said as she put down the pen that she was holding and went to the cake showcase pero agad din siyang napahinto nang sabihin nito kung anong flavor nang cake ang nais nitong bilin

jh: mint choco..

saglit na natigilan si jiya bago tumingin kay jihoon nang may blangkong expression

j: sorry but that flavor is not available right now..  she said after a mins of looking at his face blankly "and that cake is only makes once a year, same date when you went here last time to be exact" maigsing paliwanag ni jiya kay jihoon na muling bumalik sa pwesto niya kanina at tila nawalan nang interest sa sasabihin ni Ji-hoon "sa iba ka nalang bumili" she added
