I'm riding a cab going home when my phone rings.

It's Lucky.

I stare at the screen of my phone for quite a while.

Should I answer it or not?

I decided to press the answer button.

"AC" He whispered.. God! how much I misses his voice..the way he call my name.

"Yeah" I answered..I'm nervous..I'm like back to the times when I'm anticipating when he'll gonna say the words I'm longing to hear.

"Can I see you today?" He said in almost begging tune..I can fell in his voice his in pain too.

Should I see him?

I don't know what to say..

"Okay" I finally said.

"I'll text you where"

"Alright..I'll see you then"

"Thank you"

"Yeah"

"I love you"

I close my eyes after hearing those words..I love him still..but I just can't say it back again now!

I just didn't say anything. I let go of a long sigh.

"I know what you went through now..because I'm feeling thesame..I just want you to know how much I love you..it won't change and will never change..please don't forget that AC koh..ikaw leng mehal koh"

I suppress the sob with my hands. Why were hurting?! Why we have to be in this situation? Diba pweding meseya nelang?!

I took down my phone and continue sobbing.

Keya koh bah telegang lumeyo sa kenya?!

________________

Lucky's POV

I know she's crying on the other line.

I don't mean that way..I just want to tell her I misses her a lot and I love her thesame.

When will this be over? If I just can turn back times. To the times that AC and I are just happy no worries to think at all.

I guess this is the real love story..no shortcut to happily ever after. But I'll make sure it will still be AC and me in the end.

I took out my phone again and texted AC to meet me in the beach near the park later.

I stood up and change my clothes. I should always be gwapoh to AC's eyes.

I went downstairs and saw my Mom taking care of Carlitos.

"Mom, I'll be out"

"Where are you going, hapon na ah?"

"I'll meet AC"

Mom look at me for a while and smile at me.

"Okay, mag-ingat ka"

"Yeah..I will"

I was about to pull the doorknob when Mom call me again.

"Yes Mom?"

She walk towards me.

"Nandito lang kami ng daddy mo"

Mom knows what I've been through.

I give Mommy a hug.

"I'll never forget that"

"Ang binata ko, namroroblema sa puso"
