Maine's POV:

"I like you,Mae."

I don't know how to react by the sudden confession.I opened my mouth but there's no single word came out.

The thought that we are on the same road all this time really shocked me.

I never thought that we felt the same way.

When I was about to open my zipped-lip once again he cut me off by placing his index finger to it.

This sends a soft feeling of electricity into my whole being.

I'm so afraid.

Afraid to face what will be the consequences if I trust what my heart tells me.

He then spoke THOSE WORDS AGAIN. His voice sounds husky and I think it's because of his cough but I didn't mind it.

"Look Mae-Mae,I really really really like you.. As in for real.

Alam ko masyadong mabilis ang lahat para sa'yo..Kahit hindi mo ako paniwalaan maiintindihan ko, kahit sigawan,sungitan o awayin mo pa ako ok lang pero since nandito na tayo at naumpisahan I guess there's no turning back for me right now. Now that I found you again, I will not waste a single second to prove myself to you. Until now I'm still regretting the fact that I leave you in New York, I'm still wishing that I could turn back time and spend the past 2 years with you.

Alden scratched the back of his head and smiled nervously then turned serious again.

"Can I scratch the word LIKE ? because right now I think I'm in love with you Mae. Please give me a chance, please let there be US.

After hearing all of his confessions, lots of questions came rushing through me.

What if I gave him a chance ?Can he promise me to take seriously whatever relation we would end up?

What if he hurt me ? I can't handle more pain like in my past.

What if he break my once wounded heart ? I don't know if I'll still be able to crawl up after all what things might happen in the future.

What if my dad won't accept us?? I can't live the hard way :'(

I feel like crying right now. WHAT IF's  are still echoing in my mind and before I knew it, I was crying.

"Hey Mae, please don't cry. I know that it's sound so unbelievable but please believe me."

"SORRY."

That's the only word escaped in my mouth.
I stood up and was about to  run away but he stopped me.

"It's okay Mae but I won't accept your sorry.

I came here with a declaration and not with a question.

Kahit ano pa ang sabihin mo I'll still court you just to prove na ikaw ... Ikaw lang ang babaeng para sa akin. Hindi ko na ulit hahayaang mailayo ka sa akin ng kahit sino o kahit ano pa 'yan. Sapat na yung dalawang taon para mas ma-realize ko na ikaw na yung bubuo sa akin.. That you're really the missing piece of me.

I can feel the sadness in every words he utter but I remained silent then I gently squeeze his hand and finally walk away.

I'm sorry but I need to sort my feelings first.

I like Richard but I like Alden too. I feel the same feeling everytime I saw one of them.

I feel complete.

I feel security.

and I can feel the connection.

It's as if they're the same person.

Bago ako tuluyan makaalis narinig ko pa ang mga hulin salita nya.

Maybe you don't know me that much right now but I promise you that I will slowly introduce myself to you to show you that I'm a worthy person.
To show that I am worthy for your love.

You probably don't know what face is behind this disguise but very soon you'll know kung sino ba talaga ako.

There will be right time for everything.

I wish sa'yo ko lang nararamdaman ang ganito pero sa ngayon I'll just wait for that right time to finally realize kung sino ba ang mas matimbang para sa akin. Richard or Alden ?
