Heaven Above the Stars (Completed)

Chapter 19: Me or Her

Nababagabag ako sa narinig ko. May cancer si Sunee and she needs Sanun. What shall I do? Boyfriend ko si Sanun. Am I willing to set him free?

"I love you" Sanun said.

"Huh? I love you too"

"No. I love you of 2ne1"

"Huh? What do you mean?"

"Don't you want that song for the mission 4?"

"Ah... I'll think about it.... Okay. That'll be my song"

"Good. Then pick a song for me"

"Why would I?"

"Because I picked your mission song. So that it will be fair for the both of us"

"Ah. I see"

"So what is it?"

"Last Farewell by Bigbang"

"Oh. That's not bad. Okay. That'll be my song"

I just smiled, not really in the mood to talk with him. I wanted to be alone and try to understand everything. Kaso naunahan niya ako...

"What's the problem?"

"Huh?"

"You heard my conversation with Sunee, right?"

"Huh?"

"Just don't think about that. I can't love Sunee again. Everything is over for the both of us. I can only see her as a friend."

"But she's dying" and I started to cry. Nafifeel ko kasi yung pain ni Sunee, eh. Hindi ko na napigilang tumulo ang mga luha ko.

"She won't be happy either if I'll be in her side. All she need to do is to accept the situation just like how you do"

"I understand Sunee that's why I don't want the remaining time of her life to be ruined because of me. I don't want to see her lonely by the time she'll die. I don't want to see sad faces anymore"

"Are you saying that it's okay if I'm not on your side? You are breaking up with me?"

"I don't know"

"What do you mean you don't know? Please Lia, don't let me doubt. Don't make things that I don't want to do"

"If it's for Sunee's happiness...."

"How about your happiness? Our happiness???"

"That can wait"

"But not your life Lia. I already confessed because I can feel that anytime you could disappear and I don't want to have regrets in my life. I wanted to be with you until the day you'll die. I want to create more memories that's why I ask you to be my girlfriend even though we're still young for us to have that kind of relationship. Lia, don't make this hard for you and for me"
