These Stories Of Ours

Recall

"I love you," you would say.

"I love you," I would reply.

I recall the happy moments when you were in my arms as I plant kisses on your neck.

I recall the way you laugh whenever I attack you with tickles on our couch, the way you stick your tongue out whenever you think I'm a narcissist.

I remember the sight of you cooking in the kitchen as I wrap my arms around your waist from behind.

These moments I treasure in my heart. These moments I would never forget. Your voice's the most beautiful song I heard. Each day I yearn to hear it.

Now, I watch you walk down the aisle. You're wearing a gorgeous white gown and a white veil. The piano echoed as it plays the usual song for this ceremony. Everyone looked happy and some even cried. I watched you with a smile. "You are truly the most beautiful woman I've ever laid my eyes on," I thought.

You walked the aisle... and passed by my seat, and went to the arms of your lover, your fiancé, your soon-to-be husband.

I lost you, didn't I?

I recalled the fights and the cries.

I recalled the day we broke up.

I recalled the day I tried to reach out to you.

I recalled the day you told me... we could still be friends.

I recalled the many times I wanted to be more than that again.

I recalled the day... you found someone else.

A tear fell from my eye as I answer my question. I did. I did lose you. You were my everything and I was yours. How did it come to this?

"I do," he said.

"I do," you said.

I watched you kiss your husband. I lost you, but I kept a smile on my face.

My friend, I hope you're happy. I will be okay as long as you are.

Author's Notes
Just want to clarify. This was first written in Amino as a one shot fanfic that I made.
To my fellow Filipino, this was also written before the Jollibee commercial was aired. That means this story had nothing to do with the fat, red bee!
