"DOCTORA AISHA!" Halos mapatalon ako sa sigaw na narinig ko.

Nang tignan ko iyon ay sila Kaia pala at dali dali silang tumakbo saakin.

They hugged me tightly and I hugged them back.

"Finally, you came home." Cali whispered.

Mom and Dad is behind me. Last week was my board exam naghintay pa kami sa Boston para sa results. After seeing my results ay agad na din kaming umuwi. Claire, Lilian, and Jade stayed in Boston for awhile habang ako ay uwing uwi na talaga.

I ranked 5 in the exam. I am so proud of myself but there is one piece of me finding..something..someone.

I am a liscensed pyschologist now. I finally reached my dreams. Ano pa ba ang hinahanap ko? 

"Anak, you go have fun with them. Your dad and I wants to rest already." Mom said. Tumatanda na rin sila mommy pero kita ko pa rin sa mga mata nila kung gaano sila kaproud saakin.

They went to Boston for our graduation and left also at bumalik nalang para sa exams ko at sa results. Mabuti nalang at nandito sila Kaia para bantayan sila Mommy kapag nasa Bonston ako.

"Sige po, Mommy. Ingat po kayo." I said at tumango na sa driver naming sinama rin nila mommy sa Boston.

"You too."

Nagpaalam rin sila Cali at Kaia sakanila.

After everything that happened, my life changed.

But, the change I have is better.

I was more focused on my academics and to my goals.

I tried..I tried to forget him. Pero, hindi ko alam kung paano. Kaya, hanggang ngayon, sa lahat ng bagay na ginagawa ko, nasa isip ko siya. He has been my inspiration until now, kahit na hindi na ako ang inspirasyon niya.

Sinabi rin ni Kaia na he graduated engineering and topped the board also. How funny that we both ranked 5 in our exams.

I am so proud of him since day and until now.

Ako dapat ang nasa tabi niya. I was supposed to be the one beside him in his graduation photo, but..it was someone else. Someone who's really with him.

But, what can I do? Kung mahal niya, wala na akong magagawa. Talo na ako.

Forgetting him was hard lalo na at wala akong narinig mula sakaniya. I opened my main twitter account kung nagreply ba siya, pero hindi. Wala na. He's account is still there. Hindi niya pa rin dinidelete ang mga pictures ko..mga pictures namin. It's still there. I wonder if he's still using that account?

I won't lie but, it gave me hope before. Baka busy lang siya sa plates niya at sa mga pangarap niya. But, everytime I would stalk his girl..his girl..palagi ko siyang nakikitang masaya. And everytime I do that, I can't help to miss him so much.

Vance took care of me pero kahit siya ay nawala din. Hindi ko alam kung  anong nangyari. Maybe, he was busy, too.nThe girls were worrying for me, too. Andon lang sila pero, we were so busy with everything. We have to take care of ourselves. But, Matthew was there, too. Unexpectedly, he was there..until now.

I am not that dense para hindi lo malamam na he likes me but, I cleared everything to him. I won't love if it's not Enzo. Dahil ang pangako ko sakaniya ay siya lang at wala nang iba.

May mahalin man siyang iba, siya lang ang mamahalin ko.
