Chapter Six: Night Three
~Marco's POV~
I embraced him tight. Of course he struggled. He threw painful punches everywhere and the last blow was on my jaw. I'm forced to let go. He ran. Very fast. And rode a taxi by the road.
Maybe he doesn't want me in his life. Maybe he got over his feelings already. Maybe he doesn't like me anymore as much as I like him.

"What happened to your face Marco?" His uncle asked.
"I was punched." I said.
"By whom? Did you get in a fight?"
"Yes sir. Actually it's a fight of emotions."
"And that means? Please. I don't understand teenager language."
"Nevermind Uncle. Where's William?"
"He's at the pool, I believe. Have you noticed anything strange with Will lately? He became so quiet and seemed so depressed."
"Actually, I have."
~William's POV~
Hindi ba't nakakagago na magswimming kahit may pilay yung kamay mo na dapat ginagamit mo sa pagmando mo sa tubig?
Siyempre kung pursigido kang magkaroon ng peace of mind, gagawin mo lahat.
Kaya heto ako. Lumalangoy.
Ng may nakabuntot na unggoy.
"William?" He called from behind me.
"Who are you?"
"Please don't act like this. It hurts."
So he cares.
"What I am doing is not any of your business and of course I have nothing to do with you anymore. So obviously you should not blame me about your emotional pains." Sabi ko naman kunwari.
English kasi. Punyeta kaka-nosebleed.
Kung tagalog sana, yung simpleng: PAKI MO? Eh pwede na. Dito, kailangang idefend ang answer. Otherwise rendered invalid!
Sooner or later I'll be swimming in my own blood.
"I-I don't know what to say." He replied.
"Better." I said and hurriedly got out of the water and went for my towel.
He followed.
"William please. Let's talk."
"No. There's nothing to talk about."
"William I.. I think I.."
"What?!" Say it damn you hellhound. Tell me you love me and we'll run away and build a paradise of our own and..
"I deserve a proper conversation with you." He answered, cutting off my thoughts.
Well fuck you.
I ran again-as usual-as fast as I could towards the shower room. And the next thing I knew, I was on top of someone.
William: My God his eyes are blue.
Troy: My God his eyes are golden.
Marco: Oh no you don't!
