"So you wanna go back?You do know that I didn't finish my dinner because of you?"Sabi niya na nakatayo na.

"Well I didn't say follow me did I?"I said while rolling my eyes with complete irritation.

"Meh I want to have a good impression on you."He said smirking, can't he stop doing that?It's disturbing and also annoying.

"And besides who would want a girl lurking off the streets at night?You know it's dangerous when it's night here right?"He said with an overly exaggerated tone.

"Whatever."I replied looking away. He reached his hand to me.

"So why don't I start, I'm Tyler Blake Chua, and you are?"He introduced.

"Sofia Gabrielle Mendez."I said bluntly, still without looking at him. Bigla niyang hinawakan ang kamay ko at shinake ito, then he smiled.

"It's nice to meet you."He said while showing his pearly whites. Honestly he is the weirdest person I know.

"Yeah yeah."I replied uninterested.

"What's this?"He asked as he twisted my wrist that showed a scar. Bigla ko namang binawi ito at tumayo na at nagsimula ng maglakad.

"It's nothing."I said as I continue, I hear his steps as he followed me.

"Did you cut yourself?"He asked concern lurking on his tone.

"I said it's nothing."I said avoiding the topic.

"You do know cutting yourself could kill you right?"He said with wariness.

"Yeah well it's my intention to."I said with a cold tone as always.

"Ending your life doesn't mean you can get away from your problems, it's just makes it worse."He said as he passed me with his hands on his pockets. What he said took a big hit on me and got me thinking. Well if only you knew, you would understand where I'm coming from. It's not that easy as everyone would say.

"You're welcome."He continued keeping a good distance.


When I got on the front door of our house he suddenly took hold of my arms. I looked at him with confusion.

"Please before you go in, just stay calm."He said with seriousness in his eyes.

"And why wouldn't I?"I asked with a slight glare.

"Because I'm sure that they're talking about the whole marriage thing again."He replied.

"Don't worry I don't have the sanity to go back there. I'll just shut myself in my room, thank you very much."I said then opened the door and quickly went upstairs. But before I went inside my room I heard my grandma said.

"So how did it go?"I didn't hear the response cause I didn't want too, baka sasabog pako sa isasagot niya.

When I got inside my room. My brother's guitar got my attention. So what I did was I inserted my earphones and played the guitar while a music was playing.

*now playing See You Again by Wiz Kalifa ft. Charlie Puth*

"It's been a long day
Without you my friend
And I'll tell you all about it
When I see you again~"

I sang along to the lyrics and the memory of my brother came to my mind. I know it's been a year since he passed away. But I just couldn't accept it just like that. I was the one who were most affected cause he and me, we clicked together. We were so close, we even call ourselves the Dynamic Duo Sofie and Jadie. We had so much fun back then and we were happy. Until that one tragic----Uhhh I so don't want to cry but I guess tears don't understand me right now. Kuya I miss you so much. Sana hindi nalang nangyari ang lahat ng yon. Sana buhay kapa at kasama namin ngayon. You always knew how to make a sad room light up with happiness. And I miss those moments with you.

The music changed.

*Terrified by Princess Velasco*

Kung hindi lang sana nangyari yung pagtaksil niyo sakin, wala sanang ganito. Now here I am terrified to experience life with all of that again because you all broke me. You all broke the good girl inside of me. Friendship?Love?Pshhh not in my vocabulary. I don't believe in it because of the experience I got. Sana nalang pala ako nalang yung namatay para hindi ko na nararamdaman ang mga ganitong feeling. It should have been me lying lifeless in that coffin. Or if that suicide continued, nagsama na sana kami ni kuya. 

I brushed my tears away, I don't wanna feel this. No more me crying over this, from now on Gab you live your life like a wall, don't let anyone ever go over it.

When I got myself together and finally calmed down. I felt relieved and relaxed. Suddenly I hear a knock on the door so I opened it. I saw Tyler pacing with an orderly manner.

"Hey, uhm we're gonna go now."When our eyes came in contact I saw that  his expression suddenly softened. I just nodded a reply. Then he turned his back and was about to walk away when he suddenly faced me again and gave me hug. I couldn't react quite well of the situation and froze processing it all.

"Bye." Then he scattered away. Giving me the biggest question mark ever. But at some reason I smile at what he did for me. Maybe because I needed that hug.
