"When do you know it's over?"
"When someone stops trying..." she stopped and then whispered "or worse when trying no longer works."
"How? I mean after everything paano ninyo hinandle ito?"
"I think uhm you have no choice naman eh. As she said earlier trying no longer works. Acceptance lang talaga. Even if there's a little hope in your heart you have to remind yourself everyday...na that's the end of your story na eh. So wala ng reason for you to hold on because you know na wala na talaga. Kahit naman umiyak ka ng dugo or even if you beg for her to stay wala na eh. You have to accept the fact na you also need to move forward." I answered.
"Last question, does it still hurt?"
I chuckled. Gago ba to?
"not anymore." She answered
"it still does...but as I said earlier ACCEPTANCE. Hindi kasi minamadali yung pagmomove on. Hindi naman kasi necessary na 'oh sinaktan niya ako kahapon nakamove on na ako ngayon' It's not like that. It's a process a really really hard process. You should not force yourself dadating ka din diyan"
"Thank you talaga ates ha."
"Welcome! Sana matapos mo yang thesis mo!" She replied
We left the cafe and I offered to take her home
"No someone's waiting for me eh. I'm sorry"
I nodded.
