Boy version of me - Lizquen

Chapter 53 This isn't goodbye

ENRIQUE GIL POV

Was playing my ukelele and singing "Can't Help to Fall in love with you" I'm gonna miss my Hopia so much! 7PM ang flight niya. Kikitain ko siya ng mga 2PM. I mean like generally we're like single right? Or we have officially locked each other's hearts for ourselves? Overthinking makes me want to explooooode! Life is so unfair! Why can't we be together for the rest of our lives? Why is distance taking over our relationship?

Teka ang bantot ng bahay namin! It smells like a dog is living here. Panira ng intense senti mode ko.

"Benj!!!!!! Kalat kalat ang diaper dito!" I yelled..

"Ohhhh baby hit it right there" Surprise surprise!

May anak na nga tong si Benjamin nakikipagtalik pa din sa ibang babae. Kawawa naman hindi masyadong napagtuunan ng pansin ng magulang kaya napariwara.

Anyways I went to the kitchen made myself some bacon and mashed potato. I don't know pero it's a great combination... Maybe you guys should try it sometime.

"Dad wants to facetime with you"

Decline? Or accept? I hit the green button.

"Quen!"

"Dad!"

He was carrying my stepsister...

"How's Haicee?" Oh I thought he was going to check on me.

"She's fine with Tita..." I continued cooking while he was talking about business stuffs, Things going on the Philippines.

"I heard" With a deep emotion with his voice.

"About Liza going back to Manila?" I tried to hold back my tears because I know that if she's the one for me then we'll be together no matter what.

I just have this strong belief in destiny and I hope it doesn't magically vanishes.

"Why don't you come home then? Come back here in Cebu" My dad suggested.

I would love to go back to the Philippines but... Liza's in Manila and I'm in Cebu so... What's the point of going home right? Besides Liza convinced me to ace my grades here in London... And maybe if I make her proud she'll be happy that she made the right choice of making me stay here.

"I'm fine dad! My grades are great here"

Suddenly a girl in a black lingerie stepped out of the Benj's room. Her voice was familiar...

"Babe I'm hungry" I think I've heard her voice a long time ago...

I wanted to talk to her but she was lying on the couch waiting for Benj.

"Benj! Where's the strawberries?" I think Benj is taking care of Baby Vince right now... How about I grab the strawberries and reached it to her? She maybe a good friend of mine back then! Her voice is just so familiar.

"I'm too busy krabby patty!"

So I opened the ref and grabbed the strawberries. I placed my ukelele on top of the bar table and then slowly went my way to her place...

"Here's your uhmm strawber---" She faced my way making me drop the berries.

"Enrique?"

"Patricia?"

My ex is in London??!?

"What the fuck are you doing here?" She said with her insane voice...

Blonde hair? Plucked eyebrows? Long eyelashes, red lips? What happened to her?

"Benjamin's my cousin... I live with him here and I study college at UOG" As I explained she stood up with red wine in her hands...

"Ahaha! Studying college really? How did you even become my ex? You're a loser" She was laughing her ass off.

The baby started to cry "At least I'm concerned with my future"

She patted my head "Such a nerdy boy! Look what you have turned into... A loser like your girlfriend"

"You got pregnant when we we're highschool and now your hooking up with a guy who's reckless as you are!? Please Patricia! Your life is a big mess"

I was ranting... "Hey cous! You need to chill! Me and Patricia are doing great! You don't have to be jealous about it"

I laughed at them and smashedthe door outside. I can't believe that woman ha the guts to show her face in front of me. No wonder that voice was so familiar. I went outside and quickly passed by this little coffee shop. Looks like it's the best place to chill...

"One caramel machiatto and sugar cubes please"

The barista smiled at me and said "Name sir?"

I decided to order two caramel macchiato's instead of one... "I change my mind... Make it two"

"The names sir?"

"Liz and Quen" I want to surprise my girlfriend before she leaves London.

So I waited by the window... Listening to "Chivalry is dead" one of the cute, sweet songs that I love. Also that song makes me calm. I still can't believe that Benj and Patricia is a thing like they're the two persons that you wouldn't trust with anything ever. Sabagay bagay sila... Parehas walang pakialam sa tingin ng tao, mahilig sa boom boom pow, at ang common nila na may anak na ngunit sa ibang babae/lalaki.

Dumating na yung coffee na inorder ko. Simple things could make my girl happy. Wala akong load eh kaya hindi ko siya matetext na pupunta ako sa bahay nila and come with her sa airport.

"Lizaaaa!" I back hugged her...

"Quen!" He kissed me on my cheeks

Umupo kami sa terrace nila sa Second floor tapos inabot ko sa kanya ang Caramel Macchiato niya. We we're just staring at the sky... It looks like a pure cotton candy. Yummy! And then I looked at her, she was pale and crying so bad.

"Why are you crying?" I tried to gently ask

She closed her eyes and dropped more tears "I'm not ready to leave or even let you go Quen"

I held her hands "Hindi kita makakalimutang mahalin, sayo parin ako... Just remember that"
