Lhesli's POV

"Where are you going? It's just 6 am?" tanong ni Aiz sa akin

"I need to talk to someone." Sabi ko at kinuha ang susi ng kotse ko

"Hindi naman siguro yan mapanganib di ba?" agap niya sa akin sa pagsakay

"No. It's just Jared." Sagot ko

I just can't let myself keep on puzzled on what he has said to me...

"Okay. Still, be careful." Saad niya tsaka ako hinayaang umalis

Dumerecho na agad ako sa apartment na tinutuluyan ni Red

Red is not living with his parents anymore.

Simula nung High School pa kami, actually nasa Singapore naka tira ang buong pamilya niya.

He's the only one living here.

Ang kwento niya nung Simulang nag High School siya ay lumipat sila doon pero dahil di siya maka tagal doon bumalik syang mag isa dito sa Pinas.

"Red?" I knocked

Maya-maya ay bumukas na ang pinto...

He's already set....

"May lakad ka?" tanong ko

"May lakad tayo." Seryosong sagot niya at hinila na ako papunta sa kotse niya

"Teka, I need to question you—" pinutol niya ang sasabihin ko

"Ask later." Sabi niya at nagmaneho

Iba ng aura niya...

Kung kahapon ang bait bait niya...

Ngayon parang...

Ibang tao...

Tahimik nalang ako until 15 minutes of driving ay tumigil kami...

Me—Memorial  Park?

"Red What are we..." di niya ulit ako pinatapos at hinila lang ako papalabas ng kotse

And...


Scarlet Vallejo


"Who is Scarlet?" I asked as we stopped

"My sister." Sagot niya at naglagak ng bulaklak

"You never told me you had a sister?" I sat beside him

"She died when I was 11 years old, in an accident. " sabi niya

"I.." I don't know what to say

"When she was dying in the hospital that day, you know what she did?" Red said smiling but crying...

"Red..."I want to stop him from crying but

"She said to donate her heart..." he said

"Red you should..." I was cut off again

"She is a very  kind person that even if she is already dying she wants to help. " he smiled again

"Red I can't understand. Why are you saying this now?" I asked

He looked at me

"I wanted to protect her...every part of her." He said

"Jared I really..." he stopped me again

"I decided to protect her. Because I love her so much...All I ever think is to protect her, protect her.." he said

"Red..." I stopped when he pointed my chest
