-If we can go back the way we used to be before, are we going to be happy?-

CLARK

HE was crying hard, he could hear his own sobs his face are all wet but Tetsuna lend her shoulder for him.
She tapped the back of him and silently hugged him, until she find herself crying also.

"How long would it be to heal a broken heart?" He asked her between his sobs, after that he pulled away and wipe the tears in her face.

"I don't even know" she laughed and squeeze his face, he also laughed and wipe his tears away. Just like that Clark felt that Tetsuna was the one who can help him.
She's the one who can save him.

"Let's finish this drama okay?, I need to show you my Café it was nearby maybe you want some fresh air, and I have to give you a detour for my new business" she winked at him at hurriedly walk and enter her room.

Clark smiled and look at the whole house... He go for a walk and enjoy some fresh air. It was his first time to go outside again... He breathe in and closed his eyes, 'Is this how it feels to be free?' he asked himself all of a sudden.

"This was feel peaceful" he murmured.

"Let's go?" Tetsuna walk passed through him and he smelled her seductive fragrance.
She held his hand again and open the window for him.

When the engine started and drive along to her Cafe which was 15 kilometers long she turned the radio on.

He doesn't want to play attention in the song but when he heard the solemn voice of the woman she used to loved before, he got interested.

He listened to the song. To that song.

"I just wanna live in this moment forever...
'Cause I'm afraid that living couldn't get any better..
Started giving up on the word 'forever'
Until you gave up heaven so we could be together"
she throw a glances at him while singing.

"You're my angel,
Angel baby,
Angel,
your my angel baby,
angel baby baby your my angel, angel baby" she continue singing for him.

He smiled and look at the roads. Maybe his Angel came back. And that angel was Tetsuna, saving him from hell.

After 30 minutes, he saw a Two storey Café house. Stepping out the car, he was embrace with a warm air.

"Welcome to Malaya Café, where every hearts has a room from forgiving and forgetting heartbreaks and sorrow, Where you could find your own happiness". Tetsuna was position herself with a big wide open arms and smiled at him genuinely. Clark body has mind he walked and immediately hugged her.
He was so happy to have her besides him.

"Thank you"
he murmured. Tetsuna laughed and pull away from their hug because of the other customers who was eyeing them from a far.

"Let's go inside, I'll introduce you to my staff"

He nod and when he enter the Cafe all he could be is freedom.

"Hey guys, this is my friend Clark Moriento, be was here to make a coffee taste and suggests on how we can make our coffee more popular, please serve him our best seller 'sunaark' okay?".

After that Tetsuna lead him from the second floor of the Cafe where the other customers had their own place based on their feelings when they enter the Café, every corner of the Cafe has an inspirational message. There were also a message booth, or the releasing board of what they are feeling. He read some of it and lots of written there was all about heartbreaks, downfall and most are wishes.

"Some of our customers keep coming back even though there hearts are recovered from such pain. Maybe because they see this cafe as there saving place."

"Saving place?" He retorted and look at her who was smiling side to side.

"Yes, These cafe that I build isn't just about emotionally hurt even physically ill  came here, look at that boy in the corner...
Tinuro nito Ang Isang lalaking may katandaan na habang nakatingin sa glass window Ng Café nito.
...he was our regular customer, he was blind yet he found someone who can open his eyes and heart to love and be accepted, and now he had his own family, he had an eye surgery last month and look at him, he still continue to come here."

She explained, Clark was amused by Tetsuna, she came from a heartbreak also but she manage to stand and keep moving.

"Your strong" he complimented her, Tetsuna just smiled and place the coffee from his table.

"Here's your sunaark', enjoy your coffee sir" she said and seat parallel to him.
He sip the coffee, Tetsuna was waiting for his reaction.

"How was it?" She asked him. Excitement was written all over her face. He smiled and place to mug in the table.

"It's good, it taste like an orange coffee with a sweet milk on top of that after it subsided and goes into my throat there was a feeling of mint that gives me a soft and mild feeling after sipping this coffee"

She clapped.

"Yes! You got it, it was an orange- mint coffee and I got that idea because of you" she said.

Clark forehead pucker on what he heard, Tetsuna cover her mouth and look away to his eyes.

"Did you say that these coffee is made because of me?" He can't believe himself asking her, but Tetsuna nod at him and started explaining.

"Yes... sunaark was the combination of our name, sun was get in my name "Tet-sun-a" and ark was in your name "Cl- ark " sun is color orange which is your favorite fruit and mint was mine it has a good combination because like what you have said after drinking coffee it lives something in your throat and that is I called 'Forgiveness and Forgetting' "

He smiled and stand, Tetsuna thinks that he will go out of his Cafe but what shocked her most is when Clark kissed her in the cheeks and smile at her.

"Thank you."

He heart beats started to go crazier, and that unexplainable feeling came again, he called her by his endearment, that she doesn't think she will hear again.

"I'm sorry for causing you so much pain. But thank you for bringing me back into life".
