STELL'S P.O.V
i rubbed my face in annoyance after putting my phone inside my pocket.
"nakakainis! three years na eh! wala na dapat! wala na dapat akong pakialam. sinabi ko na kasing ayoko! bakit kasi nangulit ka pa? bakit kasi bumalik ka pa?!" i shouted into the air and punched the metal railings. i stayed in the balcony for a while to calm myself down but nothing seems to work anyway.
i sat down on the chair and crumpled my fingers in my hair.
"bakit kasi bumalik ka pa, jah... okay na 'ko eh.. tangina naman..."
i felt the corners of my eyes heat up and before i knew it, hot tears started trickling down my cheeks. my sobs grew harder until i felt someone touch my shoulders.
i didn't have to open my eyes to know that it was paulo. he went down on one knee infront of me to match my eye level. then he held my hands... and i continued bursting into tears until i leaned my forehead on his shoulder.
"paulo, okay na 'ko diba? d-diba nakalimutan ko na siya?"
paulo cupped my face, making me look into his eyes. he gently wiped my tears away and smiled.
"stell... nakalimutan mo ba talaga siya? o pinaniwala mo lang yung sarili mong nakalimot ka na?" i bowed my head low.
for three years, God knows kung gaano ako nahirapang i-ahon yung sarili from the pain of justin's leaving. kahit sobrang sakit, kahit hindi ko maintindihan kung bakit, pinilit kong tanggapin na wala na sa'kin si justin.
then at some point, i stopped crying. i stopped thinking about him. i stopped worrying kung okay lang ba siya o kung masaya ba siya...
at nagawa ko. nagawa ko siyang bitawan.
pero... bakit kasi kailangan mo pang bumalik, justin? bakit...?
