The heavy rain stopped from pouring, and it didn't take time for the sun to peek behind the deminishing nimbus clouds.
Through the misted windows, struck by a ray of sunshine, a rainbow reflectedㅡperhaps, a spectrumㅡwhich gently brushes Takumi's crimsoned cheeks.
He shrugged to his left and sighed when he saw his girlfriend sleeping innocently on the couch. Furrows formed on his forehead as a grim line curved on his well-shaped lips.
He didn't know what to do.
He knows he love Sil.
She became his best friend; his shoulder to lean on, his happiness, his homeㅡhis everything.
However, he knows, deep inside him, something has changedㅡno, something has not changed at all; it's just a matter of whose and whose.
Although he doesn't want to acknowledge the uncertaintyㅡeveryday, he tries not to put it in mindㅡbut everything is already starting to hunt him and his conscience could no longer take it.
Sil was his rebound and everytime he sees Tera, he knows it will forever stay that way.
Takumi's eyes batted when Sil slowly opened her eyes and met his.
"Is it time for me to wake up from my dreams?" Sil smiled... A genuine yet empty one.
Takumi couldn't answer. He doesn't want to let her go, let alone, lose her. Nevertheless, he'd be so cruel for keeping her only for him to love someone from his past whom he can't let go.
His jaw clenched, eyes dropping down the floor.
"I'm so sorry, Sil. I-I tried. I really did," his voice broke into soft sobs when Sil stood up and hugged him tight.
"That's all I needed," she whispered. Slowly, her hug loosen up and Takumi had to shut his eyes close, so he couldn't see her leave, crying.

[A/N] Just a little information of this entry. This is actually an experience of mine. Kung isa kayo sa abangers ng entries ko, somewhere, nabasa niyo na ang pangalan ni Takumi sa, "Bakit hanggang ngayon, Single ka parin?".
Yes, he's the same guy and this is his POV sa naging relasyon namin, na nilikha ko lang din sa imahinasyon koㅡkung ano man yong meron sa amin na hanggang ngayo'y pinanghahawakan ko parinㅡeme.
Yon lang at baka mas mahaba pa Author's note ko kesa sa mismong entry lol.
Goodluck sa lahat nang sumali🖤🤍
