"Di na kita mahal, Lyra!"
"SO?" I glared at him, kainis eh! makikipagbreak na ba siya?
"A-ano.. Happy April Fools day!" PESTE! nakipagbiruan pa, tssssssssss >:|
"I-I don't care, fool. Ano ba namang pake ko jan sa April Fools na yan. Gusto ko April FOODS. FOODS!"
"Hay, may red alert ka ba, engot? Tara nga, date tayo."
"HEH! Dalhin mo nga purse ko!"
"As you wish, my sweetheart."
"Eww. Stop calling me sugary names."
"Okay po." then he held my hand. Kadiri talaga itong lalaking 'to, masyadong sweet. kainis, baka mamimiss ko 'to!

"Hey, babe. Babe. Lyra? Hey." Shucks, kanina pa pala ako tinatawag ni Troy.
"Ha? What?"
"You're spacing out. Are you okay? What's wrong?" he said. You can see in his face that he is really worried.
"No. I'm fine. I was just thinking about some stuffs in the company." Sorry for lying, Troy. What I'm really thinking about naman talaga is how can I say those 'words' to him?
"You're lying. Tell me the truth, Lyra. What is it? What's bothering you?"
Troy and I have been dating for 4 years so he really knows when I'm saying the truth or not. I guess wala na talaga akong choice kundi sabihin na sa kanya.
"Troy..." tignan ko siya sa mata. Halatang kinakabahan siya, sorry, Troy. Sorry.
"Troy, I-I *sigh* Troy... We've been together for 4 years na noh? Ang galing... akala ko nga dati walang magbabalak manligaw sakin eh. kasi dba ang harsh ko magsalita, intimidating ang atmosphere ko at suplada ako haha--" he held my hand and squeezed it, as if he's saying that I should stop.
"Lyra, what are you saying? what's this--" I cut him off.
"Troy, listen to me first, okay?" tumungo lang siya.
"OKAY! ^ O ^ As I was saying, akala ko talaga magiging matandang dalaga ako but thanks to you, dude! Hahaha! Nagbago yung pananaw ko. You confessed, you said you love me since we were first year high school but nagkaroon ka lang nanglakas magtapat nung graduation na kasi natatakot ka na baka di na tayo magkita. Hahahahaha! Ang torpe mo talaga! Pero alam mo, nung sinabi mo yung mga katagang yun, di kita pinaniwalaan. Sympre naman noh, the campus prince na sobrang bait maiinlove sa isang campus bitch? I thought it's impossible." I was trying to make my voice appear cheerful kasi naiiyak na talaga ako.
"Pero nung nanligaw ka nang halos dalawang taon, grabe. Dun ko talaga napatunayan na "Opposites really do attract" kasi nung time na yun, nainlove na rin ako ng tuluyan sayo. Nung sinagot kita, sobrang saya mo. Nagpaparty ka pa nga sa buong subdivision niyo eh! Hahahaha! But nong sinagot na kita, hindi mo pa rin tinigilan ang panliligaw mo sa akin hanggang ngayon. You've been here with me in my ups and downs. You never left my side.... So..." Hindi ko na talaga napigilan at tumulo na talaga ang luha ko. Kita ko sa mga mata ni Troy ang pagkagulat and at the same time, nakita ko yung pain. I think, alam na niya siguro ang pinaparating ko.
"So, Troy.... I'm sorry. I can't do the same to you. I can't stay by your side anymore...
Troy... I'm letting you go. I'm breaking up with you.... I'm sorry..." Ngayon, bakas na bakas na talaga sa mukha niya ang pain and any moment from now, alam kong iiyak na siya.
"B-but, wh-y? May--Do you love someone else?"
"No, Troy. We just can't be together. "
"O-okay, I'll understand. I WILL understand IF you'll just tell me why..."
"I don't love you anymore, Troy. I'm s-sorry." Ah, stupid tears. Why can't they stop from dropping?
"I-is that s-so? O-oh-kay then. J-just always remember, I love you...always and for eternity :) So, see--"
"It's okay to cry and say goodbye."
"No, I don't want to cry in front of you in times like this. I want you to remember that I'm happy, I'm happy that at least I've been with you for 4 years. I'm happy because you finally set yourself free from a big burden--from me. I'm happy that I've been given a chance to be able to stay by your side even if it's just for a short time."
"Goodbye, Lyra."
"TROY!" he was about to stand up when I called his name and did the magic trick ;) *wink*
*kiss*
"Troy, I don't love you anymore. *kiss* Happy April Fools Day!"
