He took your left hand and intertwined it with his right hand.
"Bakit nga ba hindi na lang ako? Bakit hindi na lang maging tayo?"
Makikita sa mga mata mo ang gulat.
You looked at Donny's face and he's serious. Suddenly, those serious eyes turned mischievous. Then he laughed. That contagious laugh of his.
"Para kang shunga!"
At pinagpapalo mo siya sa braso.
"Aray! Oy! Tama na!"
Hinawakan niya ang mga kamay mo para patigilin ka sa pagpalo mo sa kanya.
"Belle, stop."
Sabi niya habang pinipigilan pa rin ang mga kamay mo sa paghampas sa kanya.
"Thank you," sabi mo sa kanya while smiling at him.
"For what?"
"For always making me smile. For always making me feel better."
Binitawan na ni Donny ang mga kamay mo but he is still looking at you intently.
"Ano nang plano mo ngayon?"
"I love Sandro. I still do even after all the things he put me through. And I know he loves me too. But it's not enough. It's not enough that we love each other. I know now that loving is more than love itself. It's also commitment, honesty, and trust to name a few. I cannot and I won't compete with all of his girls. I love him but I love myself more. I want me. I choose me."
