TERENZ'S POV
Galit at sakit ang bumabalot sa puso ko. Nasa dalampasigan ako ngayon kahit anong oras na ng umaga. I just want to rest kahit sandali.
I was about to sit when i saw someone. I decided to approach her. I was amazed when i saw her face. She's indeed beautiful.
We talk and accompanied each other that night. I found out that we're just the same. Both broken.
Since that day i can't take her out of my mind anymore. I always think about her. I have this feeling that i am obligated to make her happy. I want to be the reason of her smile.
Weeks past and I'm sure about my feeling towards her. Everytime I'm with her i feel like my heart is in a race. Everyday and every night I'm thinking about her.
She's simple, kind, smart, and beautiful. I know behind her smile is full of pain. But still i want to make her happy. I want her to feel loved. I want her to know that i am here for her.
The day i invited her in the beach. I want to confess my feelings. Yung maayos. Yung romantic. Because that's what she deserves. She deserves to be treated like a princess, and I'm willing to be her prince at the same time her knight in shining armor who will serve her and protect her.
I felt broken that day when she didn't come. But i don't blame nor mad at her. I can't be mad at her. She's to precious. I let it slide.
She's always texting me but i can't even send her a reply. Hindi ko kasi maigalaw ang braso ko dahil sa bugbog. Puno rin ako ng pasa kaya hindi ko sya mapuntahan. I really miss her. I know she needs me that's why I'm worried. I tried my best na hindi sya mapuntahan dahil ayokong mag alala sya sa akin.
When she said na ilayo ko sya dito. Pakiramdam ko lumuwa yung mata at puso ko. Para kasing sinasabi nyang mag tanan kami, hehehe.
Ilang months rin kaming tumira sa Baguio. Mas nakilala ko pa sya ng sobra. At ang masasabi ko lang hulog na hulog ako to the point na hindi ko kayang umahon sa pagkalunod.
I court her and she said yes nung birthday ko. For me that is the best gift that i received. I'm so damn happy but at the same time in pain when nanay paeng told me that my mom died. And it's because of that bastard father of mine.
Umuwi kami para sa lamay ng nanay ko. And that was the day when i lost her. I lost her in my gripped. Kinuha sya ng pamilya nya upang ipakasal sa iba.
Natataranta ako nang gumising akong wala si Gaia. Kahit sila nanay paeng ay hindi alam kung saan sya nag punta. Ilang linggo ang lumipas nang ichat nya ako.
: Let's meet sa dalampasigan.
Agad akong nagbihis at pumunta sa dalampasigan. Ngunit hindi sya ang nadatnan ko doon. Where is she?
"You're, Gaia's boyfriend right? You look....cheap."
Hindi ako umimik at nakatungo lang.
"Hindi na ako magtatagal at didiretyuhin na kita. Broke up with my daughter, she don't need someone like you. She's getting married. If you really do love her, you'll know what's the best for her, right?"
Pakiramdam ko gumuho ang buong mundo ko. Hindi ko alam kung paano mag rereact. Nakatayo lang ako at nakatulala sa pwesto ko habang patuloy ang pagdoy ng luha sa aking pisngi hanggang sa mag gabi.
Ni hindi ko naasikaso si mama at si nanay paeng lahat ang gumawa. Walang araw na hindi ako umiiyak. Walang araw na hindi ako nasasaktan.
Her wedding day came. She's so beautiful wearing a wedding dress. Pinapanood ko lang sya mula sa bintana ng kwarto nya habang inaayusan sya. Talo na talaga. Ikakasal na sya. At ang sakit kasi hindi ko man lang sya magawang ipaglaban.
Umuwi ako sa bahay. Pakiramdam ko patay na ang puso't isipan ko. Pagod na pagod na.
I received a video from her mother. A video of her walking towards the aisle. Ako dapat yung papakasalan mo eh. Ako dapat yun.
I can't take the pain anymore. What's the point of living if she's not here? How can i continue living kung wala na sa tabi ko yung dalawang babaeng mahal na mahal ko. Mag isa na lang ako. Mag isa na naman ako.
I know it's not a good decision. But i did kill my own self. Uminom ako ng lason. I wanted to erase the pain i'm feeling. And ending my life is one of a choice.
Please, take care my Gaia. I will always love you. Gumuho man ang mundo hinding hindi magbabago ang pagmamahal ko sayo. Until next life, my love.
