Prologue
-4 months ago-
As I held the piece of paper in my hands , I cannot resist to feel sadness but at the same time happiness for my best friend . I tried not to show him my emotion and just continued with what I wanted to say . " Wow ! I just can't believe it ! Parang kahapon lang nung sumasali pa tayo sa mga amateur dance contests ! And now , pupunta ka na sa New york for proffessional training! "I blurted out and locked him with a big hug . I breathed heavily and noticed him not responding . I know there is something wrong.
I unlocked my hug and asked him " O bakit ?!? Hindi ka ba masaya ?!? " I said placing both my hands in his shoulders .
" Kasi naman, masyadong matagal and stay ko doon ehh . 5months yun Julia. 5months. Hindi yung biro ." Sabi niya while combing his hair with his finger tips .
May punto din naman siya dun . Pero hindi lang naman siya ang natatagalan sa 5months stay niya sa New york ehh. Kahit na medyo malungkot ako , hindi ko na yun pinapakita sa kanya , dahil kung ipapakita ko pa yun mas lalo lang akong mahihirapan sa pag alis niya bukas.
" Enrique , ever since bata pa tayo hilig mo na ang pagsasayaw , and now meron ka nang oppurtunity . You should grab it . Stay strong. "
" Okay .. How about our communication ?!?" Sabi niya habang nagsisimula nang mag-empake ng kanyang mga gamit sa kanyang maleta .
" Duh ?!? Social networking sites ?" I said while crossing both my arms by my chest.
" Promise mo yan huh ?!? Tetext mo parin ako okay ?!? " Sabi niya while wailing his phone in front of me .
" Text ?!? Ayaw ko ehh .. Isa pa di naman kita mamimiss ehh ! " Sabi ko while lying on his bed while stretching both my arms .
" Well , if that's what you say ... Because I know I would . " I was shocked of what I heard . I was immidiately tongue tied with what he said . Medyo naramdaman ko and lungkot sa bosses niya . I was kind of sorry but I didn't let him notice what my reaction was. I still saw him packing his stuff. He was kinda in a hurry kasi nga medyo late na at dapat ding matulog na kami .
Minutes later I suddenly felt my eyes growing more heavy . Pagod na siguro ako. Pinikit ko ang mga mata ko ... I felt his bed's softness which helped me more in falling asleep .
" Pagod ka na yata ehh ..." Narinig kong sabi ni Quen ..
I suddenly felt his blaket on top of me . Linagay niya yung para di ako malamigan .
" Matulog ka na. Maaga pa tayo bukas sa airport." I heard him say in a soft way. The He suddenly went near my ear and wisphered " I love you bestfriend ..." I never was shocked. Normal na kasi yun para sa aming dalawa . " I love you too panget .." I replied in a groggy way. Then after that I heard footsteps and suddenly the lights were off and the door was locked ... Umalis na siguro si Quen. And without noticing it I already was asleep .
The sleep was okay . No nightmares and such . I was awaken because of the sun coming from the small cracks from the window . I stood up and looked for the clock . It was still early morning . 6:30 am . Quen's flight is not until 8:00 am . I walked through the corridor and found Quen already making breakfast . Wow. Mabuti . Hindi ko nalang siya inabala at pinuntahan . Instead ay naligo nalang ako .
As I washed my long brown hair and soaked myself in the tub my mind wandered for awhile who will be missing Quen in a while ... Nandiyan ofcourse ang family ni Quen . His other friends . And well ofcourse me . His long time friend .
After taking a bath nagbihis na ako . I just wore simple jeans and a shirt and a cap ... As I dried my hair I heard a shout from down stairs or some place else . I wasn't sure ... But I was sure na si Enrique yun .
" Julia ! Bumaba ka na ! It's already 7:30 ! I will miss my flight ! " Sigaw niya . But he still contained to be a little soft on me . And also tita Bambi was here para ihatid si Enrique .
I came running through his window .. I saw him packing his things inside his car . So I went down we were of the road . We ate our break fast inside the car . It was just a 20 minute travel from his house to the airport .
When we were already in the airport We already said our 'good-bye' to enrique . I was quite a bit of a cold stone right now . Ayaw kong ipakita ang emotion ko sa kanya . But tita Bambi was showing it all of .
" My baby boy all grown up . And now aalis na siya ng Pinas para gumawa ng mga kalokohan niya !" Sabi ni tita while hugging Enrique .
" Awww, ma , huwag masyadong malakas .. Nakakahiya ! " Sabi ni Enrique
And last he turned to me with a half smile on his face . Attempting to shake hands. So I just gave my hand anf let him shake it.
" I'm going to miss you . " Sabi niya in a very eyed way . Is he going to cry ? I want to be strong !
" Stop that . Don't cry . You can do it just believe in your self. Okay ?!? " As he pulled me into a hug I felt his sadness . But he suddenly pulled away when his flight was already announced .
" Bye ... " Sabi ko .. Pero sigurado ako na ako lang ang nakarinig nun .
As I watched Enrique Dissapear through the crowd , sadness suddenly swallowed me whole ! And As looked at the plane where Enrique was boarding , tears suddenly ran through my cheeks . And I knew that I would totally miss my best friend for 5 long months .
