Ako: Ano?

Siya: Pahiram mo account mo sa FB sa kanya. Tutal wala akong load, so hindi available ang text or call.

Ako: So dito kayo mag-uusap ganun?

Siya: Exactly.
           Letch kasi na phone. Ayaw mabigyan ng load.

Ako: Naku! Kuripot! Para kay Ken 'to, Max. Kennocha. Remember? The love of your life?

Siya: Yes. I know. But really, ayaw talaga. Nagpa-load ako sa tatay ko, wala talaga. Kahit pa maghapon kaming magtawagan kung load lang yan.

Ako: Itapon mo na ohone mo. Wala ng kwenta. Hahaha

Siya: Wag naman. Haha
          Coleen, okay lang ba? I know this plan is a bit selfish. At medyo naaabala na kita.

Ako: Ano bang nonsense yang ihinihingi mo ng sorry? Syempre, Ken is my friend and I only want her to be happy. Hindi yun abala para sa'kin.
        I'm okay with this whole plan. Basta makatulong. Don't be so dramatic. Be manly enough, Max. Hahaha

Siya: Salamat talaga, Coleen. I'm happy that she has a friend like you.

Ako: Yah. Haha Tsaka nga pala. Naalala ko. May ibang account pa sya ah. Character nya yun sa Osu. Can't she use that?

Siya: I think that's too risky. Kasi kahit mag-log in pa sya sa ibang account baka mabuksan pa rin ng parents nya. And I won't take that risk and put her in a bad situation again.

Ako: Oh well. You have a point.

Siya: "Kung ayaw may dahilan. Kung gusto may paraan."
           I'm sorry kung duwag ako pagdating sa mga ganyang risks.

Ako: Ganyan din sinasabi nya! Bagay talaga kayo. Hahaha Meant to be.
         But yes. In a way, yan ang isa sa main problem nyo pareho.
         Pero mahal mo pa ba sya? I need to know the truth.

Siya: Kasi siya lang ang babae sa mundo na nagmahal sa isang lalakeng kagaya ko. You know, my heart has loved and chased but could never catch up. She was the only one who stood and waited for me. She reached out hand her hand for me while I, on the other hand, took it with no hesitation. And I am forever thankful for that.

Ako: Wow! Max, yes or no lang kelangan ko pero essay naman sinagot mo. Haha
        Eh, ayun naman pala eh. Malinaw naman palang mahal mo pa sya. Ikaw na nagsabi, di ba? Siya lang nagmahal sa'yo ng ganyan... Nag-iisa. So why let the odds take her away from you? Don't lose her for the second time around. Kung kelangan makipag-dwelo ka pa sa doubts and kaduwagan mo, gawin mo. Fight for her.

Siya: Well, sa totoo lang. Okay ako na mamatay sa mundo na nag-iisa sa buhay. 👍 Pero alam ko sa sarili ko na hindi ko kayang iwan si Cha na mamagay na nag-iisa. Pero ang process ng relasyon namin will take, at least, 7 years.
          Seven years of waiting for her.
          Siya lang ang nagmahal sa'kin. Pero pwede rin naman na magmahal pa siya ng iba. At kung naghintay ako at may mahal na pala siyang iba, syempre masakit yun noh.

Ako: At least, you took the risk, right? Kesa naman wala ka manlang ginawa. What if possible pala, pero naduwag ka. Hindi ka sumugal. So, wala rin. You lost already kahit wala ka pang ginagawa kasi natakot kang masaktan lang.

Siya: <----- duwag + tanga 👍

Ako: And if ever you waited for her, kung ganun ang gagawin mo, she's not yours kaya dapat prepared ka sa mangyayari. Max, when people fall in love, it doesn't give them any guarantee that they'll end up happy together, but the good thing about that is the fact that they did try. And somehow, it's all worth it.

Siya: Kaya nga ako nagmu-move on eh. I really thought na may mahal na syang iba. Si Sean, I guess? Kaya I'm trying to get over it, kasi baka sya rin pala ayaw nang mag-try.

Ako: For once, can you stop concluding? Hindi mo na ba kilala si Ken? Magpaka-lalaki ka nga ngayon, Max! I'm not saying na hindi ka lalaki. But can you stop being a coward? Ikaw din ang talo kapag nagpadala ka sa kaduwagan at takot mo. Kawawa ka na, kawawa pa si Ken.

Siya: Kawawa kaming dalawa. Haha

Ako: Kung ano-ano kasi iniisip mo eh. Mahal ka nya, okay? She still does. At ang sabi nya sa'kin, this part of her life na kung saan parte ka nun ang isa sa hindi nya makakalimutan. Kaya wag ka pa munang mag-move on, please.
          Wag ka nga magselos ng basta-basta. Sean? Really? Hindi mga ganung klaseng jerk at playboy and tipo ni Ken. Para namang wala kang tiwala sa kanya.

Siya: I never trusted anyone that much anyway.

Ako: Edi useless pala ang pagmamahal kung hindi mo naman pala sya pinagkakatiwalaan ng ganun.

Siya: Kita mo naman siguro kung bakit ako nagtataka na mahal nya pa ako, di ba?

Ako: Okay. Then let's face the fact na may trust issues ka. Pero si Ken yun eh. Kennocha! She's no ordinary person to you, Max. Don't trust the guys around her. Pero sya? Can't you just give your trust to her?
          Kasi kung gaano ka nagseselos ganun din sya, Max.

Siya: Tanong lang. Naririnig nya ba yung rumor na may gusto ako sa section namin?

Ako: Hindi ata. Wala ako maalala eh. I think I haven't heard any. Meron ba? Well, sino ba?

Meleng: So, nagkaroon ako ng energy na mag-update dito. Isusunod ko ang kay Azalaine, hopefully.

It's been a week now since that day. And I think it's almost over. I know I've cried enough but it still feels like my heart is not yet over with the drama and pain. How will I even move on if he  kept the door slightly open, giving me a ray of hope? Will I even enter that?

I don't know. I don't know anymore. In a few days, I'll surely see him. I'm thinking of any ways to avoid that. Unfortunately, I can't think of any.

Why? Why is it so hard to fall in love? But they say, falling in love is easy. The hard thing is that what if you're about to reach the ground and he's not there anymore to catch you. That's just tragic, I guess.

This author's story is tragic. Lend me your hankies.

A moment of silence for my slowly dying heart.
