Jan's Point of View
Pakiramdam ko tumigil ang paggalaw ng kamay ng orasan nang mabasa ko ang huling na-i message niya.
I am falling for you whoever you are, my lonely Alessa.
I felt something so good running through my veins, I closed my eyes suddenly and bit my lips. His words kept on echoing my head. Turning and spinning in my head over and over again.
My lonely Alessa.
Even with the name that didn't belong to me. Ako ang sinasabihan niya, ako na nasa likod ng kanyang monitor. No one else.
Even with pretense. Even with lies and deceit. What I feel for him is real. And what he feels for me...
I drew a deep breath and opened my eyes. I imagined him looking exactly as he is, na nandito sa tabi ko. Na totoo lahat ng sinasabi niya.
Na pupwede talagang mangyari ang lahat nang nangyayari sa amin. But I have to wake up from this dream.
And I remembered who he really is. I swallowed hard. No. A man like him will never like a woman like me. Ang bagay dito ay ang mga kagaya ng ex nito na modelo. And even the likes of Alessa Ortiz. The real Alessa Ortiz.
Not the likes of me.
LonelyAlessa: Let's not do this, Lean.
RocketL: Do what? To deny ourselves the chance to see each other? Or to be happy once more? Why are you so afraid of me, Alessa?
Pakiramdam ko pinapangapusan ako ng hininga sa nababasa ko. Dahil hindi ko alam paano ko sasagutin lahat ng sinasabi niya.
Can I tell him I was afraid because I know who he is behind the screen? That a man like him will never throw me that kind of attention the way he is giving to me now?
Or can I tell him, I am not the person he thinks I am?
Not the name.
And not even the face. And even if I wanted to tell him, natatakot ako.
Paano kung mukha ni Ms. Alessa ang nagustuhan niya? Hindi nakakapagtaka. Ms Alessa Ortiz is a very beautiful woman of her age.
I could never compete with the likes of her. Or his ex.
I drew a deep breath once more and typed.
LonelyAlessa: I am in love with someone else.
It was too late to think about it. I pressed the Enter button and feel remorse afterwards. Dahil pakiramdam ko ako din ang nasaktan sa ginawa ko.
I stared at the screen of my laptop. There was no reply. Suddenly, I felt so stupid about making this kind of lies.
Paano kung hindi na siya mag-chat? Even the thought of it, a pain struck deep in my heart.
I feel so horrible that I want to know if he was still there when it took forever of no reply from him.
LonelyAlessa: Lean?
Some more minutes and then he replied.
RocketL: Why do you like to hurt me this much?
Napakurap ako. A pain, much worse than what I felt a while ago, struck even deeper. And before I could reply, he went offline.
Mas higit kong naramdaman ang sakit.
Dahil pakiramdam ko hindi ko na siya makakausap pa muli. I just shut him out.
And he just left.
And I have never felt so alone in my whole life but now. And this pain in my heart...
