The Best Rebound

Chapter 47

TBR 47

Prince

If life and love have a common denominator, it would be that they're both a big gamble.

You put everything at stake... Lay it all on the table... Without a guarantee of winning.

Kahit na manipis lang ang tiyansang makuha natin ang pinakaaasam ng puso natin, sumusugal pa rin tayo.

Kahit na alam nating kaakibat ng minimithi natin ay pighati, sumusuong pa rin tayo.

For what?

For a feeling that is so intense...

For a feeling that makes us feel alive...

Para sa isang pakiramdam na minsan lang dumating...

Para sa isang taong minsan lang dadaan...

For the love that's like no other.

For a love that, at one point, will also make us die a little.

I died a little...

When she agreed to make me her rebound...

I died a little...

When she let me go years ago...

I died a little...

When she fell for her first love again...

I died a little...

When she cried for him...

I died a little...

When she forgot all our memories together...

But she was also the one who revived me...

She brought me back to life with her love...

I was resuscitated by her lips...

Her touch...

Her sweet whispers that tickled me

... And made my heart jump.

Third Person POV

Kanon woke up to the sound of the birds chirping. She slowly opened her eyes, squinting at the rays of light coming from the small window of the nipa hut.
