Why Can't I Have You?

CHAPTER 1

Paris's P.O.V

'Belated Happy Birthday, My dear bestfriend. Sorry I didn't made it on your Birthday. Me and Franz were d-'

'It's okay.' Putol ko sakanya. Franz, franz, franz. It's always her. I don't hate her, we're actually pretty close. I just.. ugh! I want to be in her place. I want Calum to be mine. But it's just impossible.

'I bought you your favorite cake!' He said happily.

'Really? Thanks!' I said. He smiled then stare at me for a while.

'Bakit?' Tanong ko.

'Nothing.. Its just that.. I missed you.'

He missed me? Ibig sabihin iniisip niya rin ako habang nasa road trip sila ng Girlfriend niya? Habang kasama niya si Franz, iniisip niya ko?

'Hey, Paris?'

'Oh y-yeah. I missed you too.'

He smiled then hugged me. I wish we could just stay like this forever. But.. that can't happen. Won't happen.

Hays. Ang hirap ng ganito. Yung kunwari masaya ka para sakanila ng Girlfriend niya, pero sa totoo lang sobrang nasasaktan kana.

Yung ikaw tatanungin niya kung magugustuhan ba ni Franz yung ganito, ganyan. Ang sakit Calum. Ang sakit sakit.

'Diba sabi nila, pag nagwish ka sa birthday mo, magiging totoo yun?' Tanong niya.

'Ewan ko.' Parang di naman.

'Try mo! Make a wish!' Sabi niya at kinuha ang cake, na may kandila na.

'Come on! Blow the candle then make a wish!' Excited niyang sabi.

Okay.. ano kayang iwiwish ko? I looked at him. Ito. Ito iwiwish ko. Alam ko it seems that I'm desperate but yeah, I am. I just love this guy so much.

I blew the candle then make a wish.

I wish I can have you. I wish you'd be mine. I wish you would love me, the same way I love you.

But wishes aren't always granted.
