Adrian started getting ready for their "4th anniversary.
He got a bouquet of red roses and some chocolate for his love. Samuel was already in their meeting place kaya si Adrian nalang ang hinihintay.
When Adrian arrived, he immediately sat in front of Samuel and started talking.
FLASHBACK LIA'S POV
" Layuan mo ang kapatid ko Adrian, kilala kita halos lahat ng naging kaibigan natin naging gf mona! Pati ba naman kapatid ko papatusin mo pa?" Wait... that voice sounds familiar? kuya Samuel?
"Then let me court you...." I froze at my place when i heard kuya Adrian's words.... he likes kuya Samuel? so totoo yung hinala ko?
"Ano ba yang pinagsasabi mo Adrian? siraulo kaba?!" Rinig kong sagot ni kuya Samuel at sabay tulak kay kuya Adrian ng mahina.
"Seryoso ako Samuel, i like you. Kaya ko lang naman ginagawa yung mga yun para magpapansin sayo ehh, kinaibigan ko yung kapatid mo para mapalapit sayo. Ikaw talaga yung gusto ko... i only see Lia as a sister..... nothing more nothing less.
Nagulat ako sa narinig ko bigla kong nahulog yung box na dala ko and ang ingay pa ng pagkahulog nya!! nakakainiss!!!!!
Kuya Samuel's eyes widened when he saw me, pati si kuya Adrian nagulat ng nakita ako. Before i could even speak, sinampal ni kuya Samuel si kuya Adrian.
"I trusted you Adrian, alam mong pinaka ayaw ko sa lahat ay ang sinasaktan ang kapatid ko!!"
Yumuko ako at tumalikod sakanila.
"Sorry for disturbing you two" saad ko at agad na akong umalis, tinatawag ako ni kuya Samuel pero diko nalang pinansin. Sa ngayon ayaw kong makita ang pagmumukha nila.
SAM'S POV
I followed my sister to explain everything. "Samuel!!!!!" i hear Adrian calling my name, i stopped running and turned around to look at him.
"Tignan mo ang ginawa mo.... you freaking hurt my sister! Sabi na nga ba't wala lang magandang madudulot sa kapatid ko eh. Kung una pa lang wala ka ng gusto sa kanya, then why did you court her!! bakit mo-"
"Kasi nga ikaw yung gusto ko! matagal na kitang gusto!! bata palang tayo gusto na kita, umamin nako sayo dati pero pinagtabuyan mo lang ako. Sinubukan kong magmahal ng ibang
babae pero ikaw talaga ehh. I didn't mean to hurt your sister, hindi ko naman talaga sya nililigawan, i treated her like a sister. Hindi ko naman inaakalang you'll assume na i'm courting her." Adrian received another slap because of what he just said.
"You really chose to play my sister's heart i hate you!! I HATE YOU!!!!"
Samuel shouted before leaving Adrian. Adrian stood there speechless, hearing his first love express his hatred towards him, he hates himself. Not because he hurt Samuel's sister, he hates himself, because he made his first love hate him.
"Anong ginawa ko..." he said to himself while brushing his hair furiously. Hinabol ni Adrian si Samuel, he held Samuel by his wrist causing him to turn around and face.
"ANO BA? DIKA BA TITIGIL?! I SAID I HATE YO-"
Sam didn't finish his words when Adrian started sobbing and hugged him.
"Sam..... s-sabihin mo na lahat..... saktan mo ako.... sampalin mo ako... ipabugbog mo ako. Tatanggapin ko.... j-just please..... don't say that word again, please Samuel......"
Samuel was very shocked with what he did. Hindi nya inaakalang magiging ganito si Adrian.... Sam was dumbfounded.... His hands started patting Adrian voluntarily, as if his hands has their own mind, when he realized what he was doing. He pushed Adrian away, he saw Adrian's face full of dry tears, his heart started pounding so fast as he took a step back, shaking his head. Adrian was shocked with Samuel's action. He was about to step towards but Samuel suddenly ran away from him leaving him dumbfounded.
END OF FLASHBACK
"Grabe love that was already 6 years ago no? tagal na din. I'm so glad that you let me court you noon. You even confessed na gusto mo ako noon, na you're just afraid kasi baka mawala friendship natin and also, kasi nililigawan ko yung kapatid mo... I LOVE YOU BABY... I'm really greatful... sobrang grateful ako na naging tayo... I LOVE YOU BEYOND THE MEANING OF LOVE IT'S SELF, mahal na mahal kita."
"I love you more Adrian ko, mahal na mahal kita, i will do anything for you. Mahal did you know? Lia just got married!!! i'm so happy for her!!!"
"Syempre alam ko yun love, kapatid ko yun no!!"
"HAHAHAHA i look stupid here na mahal, i can also hear your voice again mahal... you miss me? Dalaw ka sa panaginip ko please? Ang daya mo kasii... iniwan mo agad ako.... bat di mo sinabing may sakit ka... hmm. I know that was a year ago love pero masakit parin ehh, diba sabi mo you realized you like me when you heard me sing a song? Should i sing a song again? before i leave?"
Adrian prepared himself taking a deep breath before starting.
When he was already on the last stanza of the song, he's already having a hard time breathing.
"Sa huli.... palagi...." Adrian's eyes started getting watery as he started singing, he was sitting besides Samuel's tomb, resting his head on it.
"Babalik parin sa yakap mo..." Adrian closed his eyes as he couldn't stop his tears anymore.
"M-Mahal sa huli... Palagi......" Nahihirapan na si Adrian na pigilan ang pag-iyak.
"P-pipiliin kong... maging sayo.." Adrian opened his eyes and stared at the sky, the sky was getting dark the clouds are getting heavy.
"Ulit-ulitin man..." Adrian closed his eyes once again as it was already raining.
"Nais kong malaman mong.." Adrian didn't stop singing and didn't mind the bad weather.
"Iyo ako palagi..." As he sang the last line of the song he rested his head on Samuel's tomb and whispered...
"See you soon mahal.." After saying those words, he breathes his last breath, and finally took a rest at this terrible world.
AFTER 1 YEAR
Alexander (Mingyu) chatted Adrian
"Boss Adrian!!! bakit ka umalis?! di pa kita natatalo sa basketball!! Kidding aside, Adrian bat dimo sinabi na may sakit ka? ganon mo na ba kamiss si Samuel? alam naman naming miss mo na sya pero, you shoul've let us take care of you. Di man namin mapantayan si Samuel sa pagaalaga nya sayo, atleast naalagaan ka namin diba? Sa sementeryo kapa talaga nawala siraulo kaba? pano kung wala nakakita sayo? edi mabubulok na katawan mo sa tabi ng puntod ni Samuel? Sinunod ko pala pangalan nyo sa anak namin ni Theo Cheosam nagustuhan nya HAHAHAHA. I miss you ssob happy anniversary sainyong dalawa.."
Si Theo naman ay chinat rin si Samuel
"Hi Sammy! thank you for all the memories, dapat talaga di kita hinayaan pumunta kila Chris ehh edi sana until now buhay kapa, i'm happy for both of you!! magkasama na ulit kayo! so i guess it's a goodbye again, i miss you Sammy, i love you..."
Ngunit sa huli palagi

hanggang sa huli palagi

ulit-ulitin man, nais kong malaman
mong, iyo ako palagi, palagi.
