Love is Madness [ONE-SHOT] COMPLETED

Chapter 2

Eli's POV

Siguro, iisipin niyong masyado akong malandi. Or masyado akong sigurista. Pero hindi, eh. It wasn't wrong. I didn't feel bad because I didn't consider kung ano mararamdaman ni Ace.

I deserve to be loved, but it was a process. I moved on before entering Raven's life and it wasn't unfair.

He held on to my words. He took it seriously, at chinat pa talaga ako sa Messenger.

Him: Tayo na, Eli. Sinabi mo yan kagabi, kaya pinapaalala ko lang sa'yo. (wink emoji)

Hindi ko alam kung ano i-reply kaya I denied it.

Me: Woy, joke lang yun! Hindi ako seryoso dun. Hindi mo nga ako niligawan, eh!

I was denial, but I'm not innocent. I said it directly, my thoughts. I still wanted to feel that I was decent and I seek assurance. Kaya ko nasabi yun, kasi nahiya ako sa sarili ko. What would my Mom say? Iisipin niyang baliw ako.

But he resisted. Seryoso talaga siya saken, kaya I said yes.

Months turned into years, sobrang bilis nang panahon. Umabot kami nang dalawang taon at tatlong buwan na magkarelasyon.

I didn't expect that one night of risk would change my whole life. He changed me to be who I am. I won't be like this without him. And now, I decided to take up college despite nang kahirapan. I won't let anything hinder my success.

4 years later..

To Raven,

Mahal, salamat sa lahat. Alam mo, sobrang saya ko na nakilala kita. Hindi ko maaabot ang meron ako ngayon kung hindi ka nag sacrifice para makapagtapos ako. Sayang nga lang, wala ka dito sa tabi ko. I was hoping to graduate with you by my side. Kaso nga lang, you are busy building our future. Well, I should work hard for it soon. I didn't regret loving someone like you. I'm glad I took the risk, and that is to say what I felt about you. Better to do it than never, ika nila. God, salamat po for giving me such a wonderful man. I'm so blessed beyond words could ever describe. I love you baby! Happy anniversary to us!♡

Love,
Eli.

Wakas.
