062 - epilogue

2 months.

it has been 2 months since nung huli naming pagkikita ni katsumi. hanggang ngayon nasasaktan pa'din ako sa tuwing naaalala ko siya. hindi naman ako sobrang in love sakanya pero ang sakit nung nag-break kami. mas masakit pa sa unang break-up ko.

" cheer up xyrone! cheer up xyrone! " kanta ni cheri habang nasayaw sa harapan 'ko. tinawanan ko siya kasi mukha siyang timang. " yeah, okay, cheri. that's enough. " i told her and motioned her to sit down.

the sebong squad and well, yung sub-unit daw ng sebong; yung mga girlfriends ng ibang members, magkakasama ngayon since graduate na yung mga maknae. we're celebrating.

" hyung! dapat masaya ka ngayon kasi graduate na kaming lima! " sabi ni vernon habang tinuturo yung sarili niya at yung apat. i just chuckled and nodded as a response, thanks to them hindi ako masyadong nahirapan sa recent break-up ko. hindi gaya nung dati, tinago 'ko lang 'yung sakit.

" sya, magsaya na lang tayo! seniors na tayo lahat! kainan na! " sabi ni zachary habang tinataas yung baso niya ng coke. nagsitaasan din naman kami para masaya. nagsimula na kaming kumain after zachary proposed his toast. after nang kainan, i excused myself na lumabas since habit na 'yon sa tuwing pagtapos ko kumain.

i started to walk around outside. spring na so it's not that cold anymore, i should feel happy since spring is here. habang naglalakad ako, i stumbled upon katsumi and the other girls. once they saw me, eureka greeted me with enthusiasm, " hi xyrone! how have you been? " she asked. i just smiled, " i'm doing fine. congrats sa moving up niyo. " i congratulated them and they said their thanks.

tinignan ko si katsumi and she was smiling sadly at me. i just gave her a simple smile and walked away, ayoko nang makita ng matagal si katsumi. it breaks my heart to just see her. i sighed and continued walking until i arrived at a small pond.

biglang bumalik lahat ng pinagsamahan namin ni katsumi and all i could do is smile bitterly as those memories kept replaying in my head. i sighed and looked around the place.

i guess it's really time for me to completely move on. wala ng saysay 'yung pagiging malungkot 'ko. oh well, sabi nga ni leona lewis, "it'll all get better in time."

i couldn't keep the strings attached so it's best for me to remove it completely and replace it with anew. no more sad faces, no more crying, no more listening to sad songs. i'll be happy starting today, i'll get over everything soon. next time i'll meet katsumi, i'll be greeting her with all smiles, i won't feel anything.

sigh, i'll start smiling real since i deserve it.
