- Because I have been in-Zayn today (yeah I kinda admit I'm oggling and attracted to 1/5 of One Direction), I have finished the story already. This would be the final chapter then the epilogue. Happy Reading beautiful readers ^_^

“Look! Hindi ko alam kung kelan kayo parehas matatauhan. I mean yung sabay!” I yelled. He’s still finding an excuse telling me that it’s not true. “For the fiftieth time! I already told you just don’t give up on her. Mas mabuti kung sa kanya manggagaling. Just for once, mag-usap ulit kayo” I exclaimed. He agreed then said something that makes my ear wanna explode “WHAAATTT??!!!”

(Rein’s POV)

“Ayan magaling ka na anak. Pero sabi ni dok wag munang pupuwersahen. Bawal ka munang tumakbo at tumalon” Mom said, kagagaling lang namin sa doktor and yes! I’m fully recovered na! Kung pwede lang tumambling ginawa ko na ^_^

Malapit na akong maka-idlip nang biglang may magbalibag ng pinto. So dahil magaling na ko, kailangan ibalibag ang pinto? I turned to look and saw Hannah’s figure. She quickly turns to my closet.

“Ahh Han anong nangyayari? May sunog ba?” I asked

She just keeps on browsing until she says “Perfect!” She handed me the dress. I gave her an amused expression “Ano to?” I asked. “Isuot mo na lang ate at may importante tayong lakad”. “San naman?” I asked her again. She seemed pissed as she rolled her eyes “Basta. Dali na”. She’s being bossy! Ako kaya ang ate dito! Hmmptt! Patay ka saken pag gumaling na ko ng tuluyan. Watch out for the comeback of a bullier and annoying Rein. Bwahahahaha!

Before we left mom hug me and said “Make yourself happy anak”, habang si Ate Gina naman parang natataeng kinikilig na ewan. Anyare dun? Weird 0_o?

I noticed Bryan’s car at the gate. “Okay anong meron guys?” hindi ko na napigilang tanungin. Pero kahit isa walang sumagot. Yung totoo? Kelan pa sila napipi?. They just keep on exchanging glances when I said “Stop doing that! Ano bang meron? Kasi naman! Susumbong ko kayo kay Kokey!! WaaahhH! KIDNAAPPP!!!” I begun to scream. I heard them chuckle. Hannah just squeeze my hand then smile. Ang creepy! WAAAHHH! Nagffreak out na ko dito.

Natahimik ako ng makita ko kung san kami huminto. This place, this particular place where I’ve had so much memories. They noticed my silence. “Ate I think it’s time for both of you to talk” Hannah said. I looked at her “K-kaya ko na ba?”, she hug me then nods giving me the strength. Ako lang yung bumaba, all four of them stayed in the car. Before they left, each one of them hug me and whispered for my happiness. As I watched them drove away, I heard footsteps behind me.

The moment na lumingon ako, I’ll face many possibilities. Gathering all the courage that I have, I turned around. Here goes nothing. Seeing him makes my heart beats fast. I was met with those warm brown eyes and instantly I knew I’m already facing my happiness.

The sound of the wind blowing and the shaking of the leaves surround us. Andito na kami sa burol. He helped me get here and we are both looking from afar. No one dared to break the silence.

“Rein” he called. God how I missed his voice! I turned to look at him “Hmmnn?”. His soft gaze bore at my soul, “I’m terribly sorry. D-dahil saken na-aksidente ka. Hindi ko sinasadyang saktan ka Rein. I hate myself for doing it. K-kaya I already made a decision..” he said. “Wala kang kasalanan Dave. It’s my fault tska a-..” nun ko lang naintindihan yung huli niyang sinabi. “..anong desisyon?” I begun to panic.

“I-I’m leaving Rein. Sa Canada na ako mag-aaral. It’s for the best. Para hindi na kita masaktan. Masaya na ko na alam kong masaya ka na din” he hold my face. I was like an idiot comprehending what he just said. I looked at him with a bewildered expression. After finally gasping what he meant, “H-hindi Dave. Ba-bakit ka aalis? B-bakit mo ako iiwan? H-hindi, hindi mo naman ako sinaktan ehh. Kasalanan ko okay? Wag ka ng umalis..pleasssee” my voice begun to shake and I knew I was crying. He was about to say something when I cut him off.

“Wag ka ng umalis Dave. K-kahit na kayo na ni A-amber okay lang saken. Basta wag kang lumayo, wag kang umalis. Kaya kong tiisin yung sakit wag ka lang mawala saken..”. He tried to reasoned out “Rein andiyan sila Paulo hindi ka mag-iisa. At papanong magiging kami ni Amber? Bakit ayaw mo akong umalis?”

I breathe out heavily. Kung ano man ang kalabasan neto alam kung hindi ko na pagsisihan. Because finally I had take the chance. I stare at his confused and hopeful eyes then blurted out “Dahil mahal kita Dave. I love you. My heart has unconsciously love you. You’re my Chuckie Man, and with you I found what I’ve been looking for. Ikaw ang happiness ko Dave. Ikaw at wala ng iba”

He was stunned. I have to say out all the things that I have kept “With you by my side, kaya kong tiisin yung sakit. Naisip ko bakit nung minahal ko si Paulo ang tagal na kinaya ko. Ikaw pala ang rason kung bakit. Pero nung unti-unti kang mawala saken, hindi ko kinaya. Doble yung sakit na naramdaman ko. I was having a hard time dealing with so much uncertain emotions. Nung sinabi ni Paulo na mahal niya ko, I should’ve said the same but I didn’t. something is holding me back. But I’m worong because it’s someone. At ikaw yun Dave. Dahil all along nasa tabi ko lang pala yung happiness na hinahanap ko” there I said it.

He just stared at me. Kung umuwi man akong walang happy ending, alam kung magiging proud sila saken. I started to get up, nakakailang hakbang pa lang ako when I felt an arms snake around my waist. I was frozen.

“Rein bakit mo ako iiwan? Akala ko ba mahal mo ko?” he softly said. Hindi ako makapag salita. Am I dreaming? Am I hallucinating? Am I on drugs? Cut the crap Rein! Totoo lahat to.

He buried his face on my hair then he turned me around so we are now both facing each other “I was stupid and a coward. Hindi ko nagawang sabihin sayo kung ano yung nararamdaman ko. Dahil alam kong mahal mo si Paulo I knew that I never had a chance. Kaya I just content myself by being the best of friend that you can ever have. Sa tuwing nasasaktan ka, doble yung sakit na nararamdaman ko. With the help of Hannah, I plan on telling you how I feel nung prom but something happened. Bumalik si Paulo and I know na talo na ko. I just wanted you to be happy Rein at alam kung yun na yung pagkakataon. Kaya kahit na masakit para saken ang pakawalan ka, I did….”

“…hindi ako makapunta sa ospital nun dahil nahihiya ako at nagagalit ako sa sarili ko for putting you on danger. But on the third day I did, nakita ko kayo ni Pau and I heard your conversation. Akala ko kayo na. My world falls apart. Kaya naisipan kung tanggapin yung alok ni mama, to clear out my mind. Pero alam mo ba sabi ko sa sarili ko, pag sinabi mong wag akong umalis, I won’t. That’s how much I love you Rein” when he said those words I felt myself floating, floating towards happiness.

He puts my hand on his chest “Feel that Rein? It only beats like this for you. Hindi ako makapaniwalang dadating yung time na to. Ang tanga ko, buti na lang hindi nag-give up si Hannah saten”

Upon hearing my sister’s name I frowned “Ha? Bakit si Han?”

“Siya ang rason kung bakit tayo nandito ngayon. I was supposed to leave you a letter. Pero tinawagan niya ko and she said na wag daw akong bumitaw”

I smiled “You know what? She pretty much say the same to me. Sabi niya hindi pa daw tapos ang storya ko. That when I’m ready, ihahatid niya ako papunta sa finale ko. At ikaw yun”. Looking at our entwined hands that seemed to fit perfectly. He let go of it and I pouted. I was about to ask him why when he put an ice cold chuckie on my palm.

I miss this! I sip it quickly and to my surprise nagbalik sa dati yung lasa! THIS IS A MIRACLE!! Bumalik na yung dating formula ng Chuckie. Yey! Yey!  He smiled then pinch my cheek. Nah, I now know the reason. Everything went out of taste in my life nung mawala siya saken. Because he’s the missing flavor in my bucket full of goodies. ^_^

“Love you Chuckie Man” I said, he looks at me intently then kiss my forehead, “Mas mahal kita bully and adorable Rein”.
