Interviewer: “so Anong kanta mo for miss Journey?”
Brecken: “Kanta?” tiningnan ko sya, napangiti “okay uhm, una ay congrats ha, Best actress ka nanaman” tumawa sya nang mahina “lagi ka namang best na kaibigan Happy Birthday!”
“thank youuu” she said politely, and smiling
“and.. the song is, Let Her Go” We have that eye contact, like we know if what we were thinking.
Interviewer: “owww, can you sing it?” I look into the interviewer, natawa at inisip ko ang lyrics
“p-pwede naman, pwede” Kunwari’y nasamid ako “~Well, you only need the light when it's burning low” sabay tingin kay * “Only miss the sun, when it starts to snow~” pumapalakpak sya ng mahina “Only know you love her when you, let her go” tinapos ko ang chorus.
“Palakpakan naman natin si mr. Brecken, Thank you for being here and for that song! For miss Journey, that we know your special friend”
“yah of course”
(AFTER THE INTERVIEW)
“UY ULAN! Lumabas ka” patakbo akong pumunta sa gawi nya, nang magkasalubong kami sa parking
“Oo e! Kase,” tinalukbong nya ang kamay sa ulo “hinihintay ko si manong, paalis na ko” luminga ako
“Manong Jeffrey?”
“yah..”
“I think wala pa sya baka gusto mong, hatid kita”
“uhm..” tumingin sya uli sa paligid nagiisip “Sure ka? Didn't i disturb you?”
“asus parang iba ka naman nyan, Tara!” niyaya ko na sya at nakumbinsi ko rin pumasok na sa kotse, maulan talaga kase. Besides. we're exes, oo, kilala na ang isat isa since teens, bago yun we became friends, as in super close friends. So we maintain it

“Thank you ahh” sabi nya nang nakatingin sa daan, while i‘m driving, i look at her then back to the road
“para dito? Ano ka ba-”
“di lang yon.. for effort's, still effort's” tumingin sya saken, kaya ako rin nang itigil ko na ang sasakyan sa tabi ng bahay nila
“i‘m always glad to do this”
“and you don't know how much i‘m glad, that you have what you have. You deserve it. you just don't know how much I mean it, to wish that you feel be loved and be happy” she's teary eyed right now, hinaplos ko nang marahan ang pisngi nya gamit ang hintuturo ko,
“Bakit ang bait mo”
“e bakit ang bait mo sa akin? Kahit sinasabi ng iba, can't trust you at marami ka nang kamalian i don't believe them”
“you deserve to be treated better, even if I'm not”
“as always, you are. and you will always be” I hugged her.
“we're here”
(JOURNEY)
“sige buksan ko na-”
“No! Ako na” bumaba nga sya ng sasakyan pagkatapos buksan ang pinto nito, at naglakad papunta sa kabilang side kung saan ako nakaupo, binuksan nya ang pinto nito, at inalalayan akong tumayo
“ take care of yourself!” i said while faced Him.
“i will, I will” Masaya na sabi nya, papasok na sana ako nang tinawag nya
“hmm?”
“take care of yourself and your family” Lumapit ako ulit para yakapin sya.
“pano ba yan matagal nanaman tayo di magkikita, aalis ka papuntang province”
“Lagi kang.. nasa puso ko” with that i feel His genuine love.
