03 - Right Love

Dedicated to: Raye

In the story of life, finding the right love is like searching for a hidden treasure.

It’s a journey filled with twists and turns, highs and lows, as we sail through the maze of relationships in chasing of your perfect match.

And now, parang gusto ko ng maniwala.

It’s hard for me to find the right one who can give me the right love.

Lahat nalang laro.

I’m traumatized.

Puro ako magmahal, ngunit ang sukli? Ginawa lang akong pampalipas oras. Ginawang ibang putahe ng kakatihan. Ginawang rebound.

Name it.

Nakakatakot ng magmahal.

I’m almost raising my white flag but the world won’t let me.

Confession Page: Accept friend request, may mensahe ka.

All my life, ngayon lang ako naka-encounter ng ganitong message request.

Doubting if it’s real or just a prank?

Pero yeah, wala namang mawawala if sabayan ko ang trip ng page na ‘to. So, I accepted the friend request.

And the seconds I know, I saw a post for me.

Confession Page:
💌to: pretty raye

I’m really looking up to you. Isipin mo nalang na maybe there’s something na nasa ‘yo that made me admire you, pero kung ano man ‘yon, secret muna.

Yeah, so goodluck on your studies! Don’t overwork yourself! I know you can do it. I never had a chance to talk to you properly but I’m always here if you need someone to talk.

💌from: basta pogi

He is…

… really cute, I admit.

But no.

I need something deeper than this. Ganito lang lagi sa umpisa. Pagkatapos nito maiiwan na naman ulit ako ng mag-isa.

Again… hindi.

I closed my phone and decided to review. May exam kami bukas at kailangan kong maka-review ngayon dahil may duty pa ‘ko sa convenience store mamayang gabi.

It’s already 2 o’clock in the afternoon.

Sa gabi ay hanggang alas-12 ang schedule ko kaya iniisip ko palang ay napapagod na ako tapos dumagdag pa sa isipin ko ‘yong confession.

Sino ba kasi ‘yon? Kilala ko ba ‘yon? O baka gino-good time lang ako ng mga kaibigan ko?

Ayoko rin namang itanong sa kanila. Ayoko na ulit magkwento ng lalaki. Maji-jinx na naman. At saka, hindi na dapat ako nagpapa-gulo sa mga lalaki.

And so, when evening comes. Ginugol ko nalang ang oras sa trabaho.

Kinabukasan ay medyo hindi ako handang sumabak sa exam. Medyo napaaga ako kaya malaya akong umupo kung saan ko gusto.
