"Ayira"
Nagulat ako ng biglang tinawag ni Amaya ang pangalan ko, pinsan ko
"Ano?" agad kong sagot
"Umuulan na ah, bakit hindi ka mag payong?" tanong niya
"Wala akong dalang payong." sagot ko
Nagulat ako ng biglang naramdaman ko na parang walang tumutulong ulan sa akin, agad akong lumingon sa likod at nakita si Jacen
Lumingon na lang akong bigla sa aking harapan at patuloy na naglalakad habang siya'y patuloy akong sinusundan.
"Ayira!" Pataas na boses niyang sinabi
Hindi ko na lang pinansin yung tawag niya at patuloy parin akong naglalakad.
Agad siyang lumapit sakin at may binulong
"Damn, all those years.. It's still you, no any other girls got my attention except for you. You're always on my mind and can't get out. 10 years, Ayira. 10 years."
Ako'y napa lunok na lamang na para bang hindi ko alam kung anong gagawin ko, nanghihina ako at kaunting nawawala sa aking sarili at parang nanigas na parang hindi ako maka galaw nang sabihin niya yon. Hindi ko alam kung anong nangyayari sakin.
Nagtaka siya at tinanong ako
"Are you okay, Ayira?"
"Uhh...yes, I am." I suddenly answered his question
"You look like you don't." He said
"Huh? What do you mean I don't? I am fine." I said
"Hmm, okay, I guess." Parang pasungit niyang sinabi
"Why do you still even care about me?" Tanong ko
"Because I love you, Ayira. I love you, and that's it. Nothing else matters. And I will always care for you no matter what. " Sabi niya sa akin
"After all those years, those 10 years. Wala akong ibang minahal kung hindi ikaw lang, kahit na inakala mo na nagakaroon ako ng kabit, only you, Ayira. Only you, and no one else." Dagdag niyang sinabi
Si Amaya ay naka uwi na at kami na lang ni Jacen ang naiwan doon.
"Hindi kapa ba uuwi?" tanong ko kay Jacen
"No, not yet. I'll wait for you to go home before I leave." sabi niya
"Oh, okay.." "I'll be going already, bye, Jacen"
Jacen kissed my forehead after saying goodbye
My eyes wined opened as he kissed my forehead
After he kissed my forehead, he said something
"Bye, my precious girl. Go home safely." He answered
I started to walk after our conversation, a second later I heard what he said. I suddenly blinked and looked at the place, and blinked again. As I continued walking like nothing happened.
