"Babe. Are we not really going to Japan? It's only three weeks away and it will be Christmas. I hope you'll reconsider it."Ang kulit niya rin talaga. Hindi ako pupunta sa lugar kung saan meron siya---"sila".
Ilang gabi kong pinag-isipan 'yon. Hindi rin naman gano'n kalaki ang possibility na magkita kami. Ang laki ng Japan, imposible ng magkita kami ron lalo na't hindi ko naman alam kung saan siya nag-iistay. But still, I don't want to risk my heart. Alam kong kapag makita ko siya, I'll start all over again.
"It's really perfect for a Christmas vacation, what do you say?"she asked and sipped her glass of juice.
We're having our dinner in her aunt's restaurant. Everyone in the city seems to be her relatives anyway. She's very rich, really.
"We're staying. We're spending the holiday here."
"But I'd love to go to Japan. I love Japan."malungkot na tugon niya.
"Stop what you are doing."I confronted her immediately when she started pouting and showing me her puppy eyes. "That's not going to work."
She stiffened and looked away. She reached for her bag and stood up.
"Sab. Don't do this please. I just don't want to go."
"Yeah. Don't worry. This is the last time I'm annoying you. I'll go there alone, so what? I'm not coming back. Not at all. I'd just stay there with no one but myse---"
"Fine. We'll go. Just stop acting like that. You're not going to be the best actress. Tsk!"
Ang lapad ng ngiti niya nang bumalik siya sa upuan niya.
"Thanks babe! So when will we go there?"
"You're the one who love to go. I'll make it up to you then."
"Okay. Tomorrow, it is!"she exclaimed happily.
"What? You're not serious, are you?"
Tinaasan niya lang ako ng kilay at saka ngumisi. She's damn serious!
"Let's go babe. We still have to pack. I'll just call you the details tomorrow morning. Wag mo na akong ihatid. Go straight home. I love you. Thanks!"
She kissed me and immediately took a cab.
I can't believe I'm still going to Japan after weeks of deciding not to go for it. WTH.

This is really happening. We are already on board. Sabrina, beside me, keeps chirping about how happy and excited she is.
Daniel, don't be stupid. Japan is too big for two people without communication to meet in one place. Okay?
"Sabrina. Why Japan of all places?"I asked her out sudden.
"You wanted to see her. I wanted to see Japan."she tried giving me her smile, but it's crooked this time.
"I don't want to see her."
"But you miss her."
"Sab. She's engaged. I have to move on."
"I know. Maybe, you need closure. You two have to talk."
"No Sab. Whatever 'was' between us, it's not official. We don't need closure as you see it. Can we just go to places where there is not much crowd? Just the small places in Japan, maybe. It's holiday, baka mamamasyal din sila sa mga sikat na landmarks dito sa Japan. I promise you Sab, when I'm over her, I'll take you back there with no more restraints, we can go wherever you want."
