ALWAYS YOU ✔️

THE CHASE

Hello there, I just want to start off by writing that this story means a lot to me. This is also based on my own experiences in love and my experience when I felt the same exact feeling as Margauxx--pain. 

We've had experiences in love where we want nothing but for that person to like us back, for anyone who wanted to tell them that they love them or want to chase after them but couldn't, this is the story for you. And this is also for the people who have loved, moved on, and cannot let go.

Thank you, and I hope you enjoy this story <3. 

CHAPTER ONE: THE CHASE

" I want to see you,
I wanted to see you so much. "

They say love is hard, it's not easy.

They say it's cute, all good, all sweet, just all that perfect feeling.

Some say it's a fantasy for anyone who's read romance books before but has never been in love ever in their lives.

I thought love would be something good too, akala ko magiging perpekto yun.

But you only assume without even getting a taste of it. And once you've gotten a taste of it, there's a chance that you might want more or you'll end up throwing it all up because of the bitter aftertaste.

Iba naman yung sa'kin, love is a mixture of everything good and bad.

There is nothing in between, once that person has fallen for you the way you've fallen for them then maybe there would be something in the middle in the end.

"Bakit naman gano'n, Margauxx?" napatingin ako kay Olivia sa tabi ko, huminga ako nang malalim at kinuha ang essay na sinulat ko.

"It's just the way it is, alam mo naman, 'di madali ang pag-ibig."

"But there is nothing in between? 'Di ko gets?"

Olivia is too naive, she's my age and my classmate and yet it looks like she hasn't experienced anything when it comes to admiring someone. Lumapit ako sa kanya at inakbayan siya.

"Kapag may gusto ka sa isang tao, 'di medyo weird sa una? Kasi 'di mo pa alam na ganito pala yung mararamdaman mo. Kapag nakikita mo yung taong gusto na nakangiti o malapit sa'yo, kinikilig ka 'di ba? Those are the good things..."

Tango naman siya, naintindihan niya ang eksplenasyon ko, hinighlight niya yung isa sa mga sentence ng buong essay ko at sinulat niya sa notebook niya para 'di niya makalimutan para sa presentation na'min sa English Literature.

"What about the bad one?"

"If... may iba na yung taong gusto mo, kapag 'di ka rin nila gusto, unrequited love, one-sided love. Kaya kapag may gusto na yung taong gusto mo sa'yo, then balanse na yung pag-ibig, pero kung hindi ka pa rin gusto, it leaves you in good or bad sections in love." dagdag ko.

Sa palagay ko naman kasi hindi lang magagandang bagay ang meron sa pag-ibig, kaya nga ang daming nasasaktan 'di ba?

Love can come into different interpretations as there is millions--zillions of people here in the world.

And this is my own interpretation of it. Mine, only mine not everyone else.

"Hm, that's nice."
