Everything About You

Chapter One

Serenity's POV

"I'm so glad you made time to see me.

How's life? Tell me how's your family.

I haven't seen them in a while..

You've been good, busier than ever,

We small talk, work and the weather,

Your guard is up and I know why.

Because the last time you saw me

Is still burned in the back of your mind.

You gave me roses and I left them there to die."🎶

I just thought about the song, every mem'ries lingering on my mind. Naisip ko na naman siya. Sabat naming kinakanta habang nag-gigitara siya. Kamusta na kaya siya? It's been months, and I'm still not over him. My heart remembered everything we've been through. How about visit him this weekend? I missed him so much.

"So this is me swallowing my pride,

Standing in front of you saying, "I'm sorry for that night,"

And I go back to December all the time.

It turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you.

Wishing I'd realized what I had when you were mine.

I'd go back to December, turn around and make it all right.

I go back to December all the time."🎶

"Serenity!" Narinig kong tawag sakin ni Cassy. I turn around and saw her smile.

"Hi Cass, happy birthday." I smiled, and she walk towards me.

Cassy is my bestfriend, my beloved bestfriend magmula nung bata kami at naglalaro sa putikan. I'm at her 16th birthday party, and the live band is performing at the stage, na sa hindi malamang dahilan ay naiiyak na naman ako dahil sa tinutugtog nila.

"Oh ano? Naaalala mo na naman siya? Birthday na birthday ko eh." She said.

"It's just that I haven't moved on yet. I still love him." I looked down and bit my lip, stopping my tears to fall down.

"Ikaw 'tong tumulak palayo sa kanya tapos ngayon sasabihin mong mahal mo pa siya. Serenity, you shouldn't let yourself down because of him. You know what? He moved on, unlike you. Still drowning in the past. Ikaw nagpasyang lumayo siya sayo, you must show yourself you're okay." She hugs me. And my tears fall down, hindi ko talaga alam mangyayari sakin kapag wala siya.

"Thank you Cass, mahal talaga kita." Sabi ko habang pinupunasan yung luha ko ng panyo.

And the night went okay. Masaya kaming lahat especially Cassy. Dahil lahat ata ng classmates namin ngayong year at mga elementary friends ay nandito. Magmula nang nagsimula ang party kanina ay kumain lang ako, at nakipagkwentuhan sa mga kaklase at ibang kaibigan.

Nang matapos ang party ay nagsiuwian na ang mga bisita. But I'm staying here. Nakapagpaalam na din naman ako kay Mommy at Daddy. Na dito ako matutulog, and they let me, since kilala naman nila si Cassy and her family.

Nagliligpit na ang mga kasambahay nang may nagdoorbell. Nagkatingininan kami ni Cassy, the night was over. Sino naman 'yan? Napakunot ang noo ko habang papunta sa gate at nakasunod si Cassy. And my jaw dropped from what I saw. Here he is.. the reason why I'm crying because of too much pain.

"Ah, wait. Ako na magbubukas." She passed over me, at binuksan ang gate.

I looked at the man outside, he never changed. He was still the man I fell inlove with. Hindi ko alam kung anong gagawin ko, papasok ba ako sa loob, lalapit sa kanya, o kung papansinin ko ba siya. Masakit pa, at 'di ko pa kaya.

Sa huli ay pumasok nalang ako ng bahay. I'm not ready to meet him, tonight. I don't wanna talk to him because I felt like this is all my fault. What can I do? It's true that you only appreciate things when it was already gone.
