Chapter Theme - Tataya by Cup of Joe

In the end, we only regret the
actions we didn't take because
of the decisions we waited
too long to make.

| ORION |

Until now, I'm still processing the fact that I can do the passion project I planned. Hindi ako makapaniwala na hinayaan ako ni Mom na gawin ang gusto ko. I never dared to ask her before, I only did what I was told. If only I had taken a leap of faith before, would I have done the things I wanted?

Obviously, no. The answer still lies with my parents. I do not control the strings of my life; they control them. Yet, having the courage to do what I initially wanted gave me a sense of control and, unexpectedly peace of mind.

Sa ngayon, ang bumabagabag na lang sa'kin ay ang hindi namin pag-uusap ni Raphael. It's been days since our last conversation. Puro batian lang sa hallways ang ginagawa namin. I can't deny that it's my fault. Hindi ko siya kayang harapin nang hindi pa ako sigurado sa gusto ko.

Raphael seems like he knows what he wants, and what he stands for. He's certain about himself. Nakakahiya na ganito ako, ang daming pagdududa sa sarili. Parang hindi pa ako worthy maging kaibigan niya. Pero ayos na lahat ng iyon. I still have doubts, but I'm proud I took a step forward.

Orion:

Let's talk?? 😊

Raphael:
'Di mo na ako iniiwasan? 🤨

Orion:

Sorry hehe

Was it obvious?? 😣😣

Raphael:
'Di ako tanga

Kala ko nga galit ka sa'kin dahil sa sinabi ko sa'yo sa cafe

Ta's binabati mo ako sa hallways para magpanggap na ayos lang tayo
You reacted 😅 to Raphael's message

Orion:

That sounds something I would do 😂

Raphael:
Tawa ka riyan?

Pagkatapos mong i-seen mga message ko?

Ta's tinatakasan mo pa ako kapag hinihintay kita sa classroom niyo?

Orion:

I'm sorryyy 🥺🥺

I wanted to think about what you said and face what's been bothering me

Raphael:
Sinabi mo na lang sana para hindi ko iniisip na may ginawa akong mali 🙃🙃

At natulungan din sana kita, 'di ba?
