Greg's PoV

"Oh God Kelly bakit?!" Tarantang tanong ko because she suddenly cried in front of me

"Hey... fck it come here" sambit ko na lang hugging her

"Sorry... I'm sorry..."

"Sshh ano ba bakit ka ba nagssorry? You're scaring me"

Kasasabi ko lang iiwasan ko siya eh then now she's crying. How will I be able to leave her if she doesn't want me? Damn it Gregory.

I felt her hug me back.

"I... I thought I won't see you again... akala ko sumama ka talaga sa parents mo..."

"I told you, I didn't"

"But you said you might..."

"How can I leave you? In this state? You're still careless tsk"

"Greg..."

"I love you so why will I leave you like that?"

"But you're not showing up!" She said looking up at me still crying

"You're the one who said you don't want to see me, Kelly. Andito pa rin naman ako di lang ako nagpapakita gaya ng sabi mo"

"Naman eh!!"

"Para ka na namang bata tsk. Ano ba? Haha"

Humigpit lang yakap niya saken after I said that. Hay, ewan. Bahala na.

Kelly's PoV

"Kelly, hey Kelly" tawag niya habang tinatapik ang likod ko sabay layo ng konti saken

"Stop that. Tsk. Umuwi ka na. You seem tired already. Wala ka naman nang klase di ba?"

"Y-you know?"

"Of course I know. Ano bang di ko alam sayo? Tch"

"Greg..."

"Sige na umuwi ka na may aasikasuhin pa ko"

"Sama ako..."

"Kelly no"

"H-ha?"

"I told you. I love you"

"O-oh?"

"Now I have to figure out my self control over you. Kung lagi din kitang kasama, I would always want to kiss you"

"E-ehh?!"

"You're always blabbering about Korean actors goddammit, I'm jealous. I don't think I can handle more. Isa pa, hindi ko pa nga alam kung may karapatan ako magselos" he said looking away

"G-galit ka ba?"

"I'm not angry, Kelly. Geez. Why would I be angry with you. Stop that thought"

"You're drifting away..."

"Kelly. Look. Hindi ako galit. I just told you I love you. Ang akin lang... if... if you don't feel the same way, I... I have to be prepared for the worst"

"Worst?"

"Losing my best friend and my love at the same time. Hindi ako yung tipong ipagpipilitan ang sarili ko Kelly. Siguro naman alam mo yun? So kung ramdam kong... ganun. I'd really have to let you go"

"But you're my best friend..."

"Yun na nga eh. Best friend. I asked you if I can be more but you haven't answered yet. But I treat you as the most special person in my life next to my parents. I see you for a lifetime, Kelly. See the difference..."

I... I have to explain. I have to let him know that I really loved him... pero... pero walang salitang lumalabas sa bibig ko

"Sige na umuwi ka na"

"G-greg... let me explain"

"Explain what?"

"C-can we talk some other place? Y-yung tayong dalawa lang..."

"What for Kelly?"

"I... I just have to say something"

"Say it here. What would be the difference"

"Greg... please..." sambit ko pulling him but my legs felt weak all of a sudden

"Hey! What happened?!"

"O-okay lang ako" sambit ko. My vision suddenly blurred hanggang magblack out ako
