THINGS didn't really go well after Mason left, but now, I can say that Iʼm already doing well.
Sure, there were sleepless nights when I just cry my eyes out. Overthinking also got me good. Naranasan ko na rin 'yong mga nararanasan ng mga bida sa mga librong nababasa ko. 'Yong mapapatulala na lang sila dahil sa sobrang lungkot. I thought it was just an exaggeration. Well, the truth is, it's not.
I may have lost myself a couple of years ago. Yeah, three years have passed since Mason left me to go to New York. It was a really tough time for me but my friends helped me get through it, lalo na si Clifford. He spent all his time with me. Kadalasan nga, hindi na siya pumapasok para lang masamahan ako sa ka-drama-han ko, eh.
Three years have gone so fast. I already made amends with my Dad. He said na okay na siya kung ano'ng gusto ko sa buhay ko. He's just there to guide me. He also apologized for making me feel like shit for all those years of my life. Now, we're okay na. Mas close na nga kami, eh. It's the bond that I was always looking for all my life.
As for me, I pursued my passion in the town's very own Richmond University. And yep, I didn't go there alone. I have all my friends to join me there. Doon din sila nag-college para magkakasama pa rin kami. All of us are living in the dorm. Kami ni Penny ang roommates. Remi, on the other hand, has a new friend as another member of the gang. Well, all of us do. Marami kaming mga bagong nakilala sa university and luckily, we all get along. It's like a family growing more.
Tungkol naman kay Mason... wala na akong balita sa takte na 'yon. Siguro maganda na rin ang buhay niya sa New York. Hindi pa siya umuuwi sa Pilipinas ever since noong umalis siya, eh. Wala na ring may alam kung ano'ng nangyari sa kaniya. No one knows if that ice demon is still alive.
But kung ako ang tatanungin, I'm okay na. I've moved on from that puppy love. Maybe he really was just a lesson given to me. Natatawa na nga lang ako kapag naaalala ko 'yong mga pinagsasabi ko dati, eh. Talk about major cringe.
But I have to admit. When he left, there was like this big hole inside of me. He was like a part of me. So when he left, it's like a part of me came with him. But it's all in the past. My focus is on the present — to the new chapter of my life that I'm facing now.

THE BELL rang which means that class already ended. Halos mag-abot tenga ang ngiti ko nang lumabas ako ng lecture hall. Finally! After ng ilang buwan na madugong pakikipagsapalaran sa pag-submit ng mga requirements, semester break na rin! Itʼs time to take a rest from it all! Yehey!
Akmang didiretso na sana ako patungo sa cafeteria ng university nang sa isang iglap, bigla na lamang nag-beep ang phone ko. Kinuha ko naman ito at nakitang nag-message pala si Clifford sa 'kin.
