𝑼𝒏𝒅𝒆𝒓 𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝑴𝒐𝒐𝒏'𝒔 𝑬𝒎𝒃𝒓𝒂𝒄𝒆 [𝑮𝑳]

𝑷𝒓𝒐𝒍𝒐𝒈𝒖𝒆

Gaano na nga ulit katagal? Apat na taon...

It's been a year, my love.

Pero hanggang ngayon, hindi pa rin kita makita. At kahit ganun pa man, hindi ako susuko.

Hinding-hindi ako titigil na hanapin ka, Amor.

I was walking at the resort where we used to spend time together. After a long, exhausting day at work, I felt the urge to visit the beach. The scenery was inviting, and since it was already late at night, I figured there wouldn't be too many people around.

Sitting on the cool sand, I stared at the waves, my thoughts running wild. Then I noticed how beautiful and bright the moon was tonight. Its glow felt comforting, almost magical. I was captivated, watching it in silent awe, when suddenly, a meteor streaked across the sky.

I couldn't help but recall the tales my grandmother used to tell me when I was a child. Kapag nakakita ka ng bulalakaw, humiling ka. Tutuparin 'yan.

I never believed it then. But now?

Now, I wanted to believe.

I closed my eyes and let the cold breeze kiss my skin. Slowly, I made my wish. I poured every ounce of longing into it.

Then suddenly...

"This isn’t the place for you to sleep, Dela Fuente."

That voice-cold, stern, and chilling-sent shivers down my spine.

I froze, my head still tilted toward the moon, eyes shut tight. For a moment, I convinced myself it was just my imagination.

But the voice was too real, too familiar.

Summoning every ounce of courage I had, I turned to face the source of the voice. My heart raced, a chaotic mix of emotions threatening to overwhelm me.

My breath hitched and before I knew it, tears were brimming in my eyes.

The wind picked up, slapping against my skin, yet it only made everything feel more surreal. My body refused to move at first, rooted in place, as though I had turned to stone.

Is my wish coming true?

Could this really be happening?

Lord, is this... real?

Finally, my feet moved on their own, rushing toward the figure standing in the shadows. Without thinking, I flung my arms around her, pulling her close, and before I could stop myself, I kissed her.

"It's been a year, my love."
