"One..

Two..

Three..months na yata since I last saw her, Je. I heard she's still in Eat Bulaga, that's good. And she's going to have a morning show na daw, well that's been going around GMA for quite a while now, sana magkatotoo, gusto nya ng ganung show eh. I remembered."

"Eh ikaw, tisoy? Kamusta ka?"

"Doing better. Heto puro shows abroad. Kapagod din minsan. Hahaha."

"If I know, puro shows sa ibang bansa yang tinatanggap mo dahil ayaw mong magkita kayo dito."

"What? Di uyyy."

But actually, if we're being honest, a part of me really did choose out of country shows para di nga kami makatagpo muna, ang hirap kasi eh, di ko pa siya kayang makitang masaya sa ngayon, di ko pa siya kayang makita na maayos habang hindi na ko kasama, masakit pa ng konti kasi, medyo may tama pa rin kasi.

"Na mimiss mo ba siya?"

"I can't imagine a day that I won't"

Three months after our break up, and I'm still as broken as I was that day. I wish it didn't had to happen. I wish the accident never happened. I wish she never forgot about me, about us, but this is our reality now, I hate to admit it but we're living different lives now, she has her world and I have mine. Our promises don't matter now. Nothing that ever happened between us matters now.

Because we're nothing anymore. I need to accept that. I got to. It's the only answer to all the questions I have left. It's all there is, and all there will be.

I understand that I got to move forward now.

But you'll always be my one that got away, Nicomaine.

Nicomaine

Three months, two weeks and four days. To be exact. So what changed? I have more work now. Still nakakapanibago ang maging artista, ang maging dabarkads, ang maging Maine Mendoza, dubsmash queen ng Pilipinas at phenomenal star. And syempre maging kalahati ng isang ALDUB, kahit na di umayon samin ang pagkakataon, natanggap naman ng lahat ang naging sitwasyon naming ngayon.

Medyo busy. Gusto ko nga laging busy eh, para di ko siya isipin. Para di ko maisip yung nangyari samin.

I have been seeing a therapist now. To help me recover daw, baka may mga bumalik na memories daw through these sessions, puro tanong lang naman na ni isa di ko masagot, kasi nga wala akong naalala. Nakakafrustrate lang minsan. I mean why do I have to be subjected to these experimentations knowing that there's a huge chance it won't actually work? Mas pinapaalala lang naman nito na, na may kulang sakin. Na may nawala sakin. I hate realizing that.

"Wala ka bang naalala ngayong araw?"

"Wala, doc."

"Ano bang mga bagay na pumasok sa isip mo ngayon araw na to? Mga iniisip mo? May mga tanong ba?"

"Katulad pa rin ng dating, doc. Siya pa rin. Kahit anong gawin ko. Siya pa rin."

"Na mimiss mo ba siya?"
