What is Love?

One shot

"Hi I'm Francine," I said to the Boy who is Crying in the bench here in school, he was holding a bouquet of red roses.

He look at me, his tears still flowing then he look at my hand hestitant to touch it. Kaya ako na mismo ang lumapit at kinuha ang kamay nya sa ere.

"Who are you and Why are you crying?" I said and sit down next to him.

"I'm Sean,"he said with a low voice." and... I'm... I'm crying because my Girlfriend broke up with me in our 1st Anniversary ,"ani nya at tumungo ulit.

I nodded and look at the sun ready to set.

"You know... it's okay, baka kaya ka niya brineak kasi may darating na bago?!"saad ko at hinintay ang tugon nya.

"But I just want her... just her,"he said.

"Oh so you 'want' her not 'love' her,"I said and look at him while raising an eyebrow.

"Of course I love her,"he said and look at the bouqet of flower.

"How do you describe youu love to her?!"I ask and he got into thinking.

"I want her beside me always, I like it when she do some things, I smile when I'm looking at her, I like it when she only looks at me, I like it when she holds my hands, and of course I Like the way she say 'I love you' to me," he said,slowly tearing up again.

"Did she break up to you in a nice way?" Ani ko, he nodded. "Oh ayun naman pala eh, there's nothing wrong about that,"I said while smiling but I stopped when he look so confuse.

"You see, when you describe to me what is 'love', you didn't say anything including love you just said, like, want but you never said you love her,"I said and napaiwas naman sya nang tingin.

"Do you know what is love?"I ask and smiled when he didn't answer and just look down.

"Love is a feelings that everyone deserves but not everyone can have, you see you got into a relationship, you two said I love you's but even you said 'I love you' so many times,if you couldn't prove that you love each other,the word I love you has no meaning. You can describe so many thing in a relationship that they would say that it is love but it is not. There is boy who had a relationship with a girl who always cry if the boy wanted to break up and will say I love you after but it supposed not to be I love you in his mind it's "I pity you" mahabang saad ko at natawa sa huli. "Tama lang na 'I pity you' ang sabihin pagkatapos umiyak ang tao na ayaw makipag break kasi totoo naman talaga na naawa ka nalang sakanya kaya ayaw mong masaktan sya. Meron namang isa na tinatawag nilang love pag gusto ang katawan nang isang tao pero hindi na yun love nun Attract na yun parang pag sasabihin mo ' I was attracted to you but not love you'"saad ko at natawa nanaman at nakita ko si Sean na napangiti.

"So you see Love is about something you need to 'do' and not to 'say',"saad ko at tumingin ulit sa palubog na araw.

"Love is also like a sun, love will be gone but there's another new one, like the sunset it will be gone at mapapalitan nang buwan ang kalangitan pero pag maguumaga na, may darating na bago, the sunrise," I said again. "Love is also like a water and food you can't live without it," I said and continue to say about love. "Love is like an air even you can't see it at least you can feel it,"

Sean POV
Francine said Love is like an air then what my feelings for her is like an air then, 'she can't see it at least she can feel it,' before she's gone. We met,11 years ago. We got together, 9 years ago and she left me on our very 10th anniversary.

Nakasandal sya sa balikat ko habang nasa lugar kami kung saan kami unang nagkakakilala.

"You can sleep peacefully now, Francine," I said while tearing up by just the sight of her sleeping peacefully at my shoulder.

"You describe me what is Love and you show to me what is love. When I learn about it, I proved it to you and only you. You said the love is like a sunset and sunrise, lulubog na yung araw sa ngayon pero sa tingin ko kung hindi ikaw ang kasama ko pagusbong ulit nang araw hindi ko na ulit alam ang pakiramdam nang pagmamahal,"I said and look at the sun that is setting already. "Sabi mo love din na love is sunrise kasi may panibagong dadating pag lumubog yung araw kahapon, pero mali ka ayaw ko may dadating na bagong magmamahal yung sa yo lang kasi ang gusto ko, francine. Kaya kung lulubog na yung pagmamahal mo dahil wala ka na,mas gusto ko nalang lumubog kasama mo," I said at binuhat sa sasakyan ko.

Diniretso ko na siya sa ospital at alam kong dead on arrival yun dahil alam ko rin naman nahirapan na si Francine kaya sinabi nya na pag natulog sya pabayaan ko na daw sya dahil pagod na sya hindi yung mahalin ako kundi yung makita nya akong nahihirapan kaya mas pinili nyang matulog nang mapayapa.

Nang dumaan ang ilang buwan nagkasakit ako, naging mahina ang katawan ko dahil wala na akong gana magpalakas pa kung wala na rin ang taong nagpatunay at nagsabi sakin nang salitang love.

Unti unti kong pinikit ang mata ko at nang pumikit na ako narinig ko na sinusubukan pa nila akong salbahin pero nakita ko si Francine nakangiti saakin at gustong kunin ang mga mata ko sumunod na ako sakanya, pagod na ako nang wala akong maramdaman na pagmamahal, kaya sakanya ako kumapit nang sandaling ayoko na kasi sya ang mundo ko na nagpatunay na may nagmahal saakin.

I have question for all of you.

'Do you know what is love? Can you describe it for me?'

'Do you ever feel love from someone ?'

If you still doesn't felt loved well I was ready to love you... as a friend. Hehe... I'm just 13 so Lovelife still not my priority.

Also love depend on you, if you want to love someone then love someone. When you're still not ready to love then wait till you are ready to love. If you love with you same gender, its okay love depend on yourself. If you're a girl and in love with a girl also it's okay,if you're a boy and you also in love with a boy its okay. Always remember Love has no gender and age so love who you want to love.(^-^)
