Flashback
‘Daddyloves, pano pag nagbreak tayo?’
‘Ha? Bat naman tayo magbebreak?’
‘Wala lang. Pano nga?’
‘Hmm. E di break.’
‘Yun lang? Wala kang gagawin?’
‘Siguro, kung ikaw yung makikipagbreak, wala akong gagawin. Kasi.. Ayoko naman na pilitin ka kung ayaw mo na talaga. Ayoko maging selfish. Kung di ka na Masaya sakin, okay. I’ll set you free even if it means that I’ll be hurt. Pero kung ako yung makikipagbreak.. Lalayo ako sayo.’
‘Ahh. What if.. makipagbreak ako sayo.. Pero hindi dahil sa hindi na kita mahal.. Kundi dahil sa... Basta! Pano kung nakipagbreak ako sayo pero may reason naman ako kung bat ginawa ko yun? Anong gagawin mo?’
‘Hmm. Siguro.. Makikipagbreak ako.. basta ba sabihin mo sakin kung anong reason yun.’

Noon pa man pala..
Nagparamdam na sia na maghihiwalay kami.
Noon pa man pala..
Aish.
I just stared at her picture. It’s been two years. I wonder how she’s doing now. Nilapag ko yung picture nia sa table at nagpunta sa may bintana.
I just hope she’s happy wherever she is.

‘Laureeeeeeeeeeence! Dalian mo!’
‘Pwede hintay?’
‘Kasi naman! Malelate na tayo sa flight natin!’
‘Di ka naman excited ng lagay na yan?’
Nagsmile lang ako tapos umupo sa sofa. Pinagpag ko yung imaginary dust sa suot kong jeans.
‘Are you nervous?’
Tinabihan ako ni Laurence tas inakbayan. I looked at him and I saw concern on his face.
‘Yes. I don’t know what to expect. Alam mo yung feelng na.. Yes, you promised each other na pag nagkita ulit kayo, kayo na talaga. Yung.. Andito yung excitement.. Pero parang mas nakakalamang yung kaba. What if he has found a new love already? What if.. He has a new girl?’
‘You’re just being pessimistic.’
‘No.. I’m just being realistic. Kasi di ba.. There’s always the possibility that he might fall in love with someone else? Di ko alam dapat kong isipin.’
‘Yeyen.. What will be, will be. Kung hindi man kayo, marami pa jan. At di ba sabi mo nga, you’ve already matured. Sabi mo, tatanggapin mo na lang, kung anuman mangyare. At saka, wag ka masiado magworry. It’ll do you no good.’
‘Thanks Laurence.’
‘Anything for you Yeyen.. Anything. O, tara na.’
We went straight to the airport. Finally.. Uuwi na ko. I’m going to see him.. :))
FASTFORWARD!!
‘After 2 years of staying in the States, she’s back! Ladies and gentlemen, let’s all welcome back.. Aphrodite Cheyenne! Let’s give her a round of applause!’
Nagsmile ako dun sa announcer tapos nagpunta na sa gitna.
I started singing.. And I felt like.. I’m at home again. Nung nasa US kami, I was just an ordinary citizen. Tapos.. Eto, balik showbiz na naman ba ako?
