both.

-- NORMAN’S POV --

Takte! Umulan pa. Nakisabay pa talaga ang panahon sa pag-emote ko. Pero ayos na rin para di halatang umiiyak ako ngayon. Hindi dahil nakakabawas ng pagkalalaki ang makita akong umiiyak, ayoko lang na madaming nang-iintriga kung anong nangyari sa akin.

When it rains, it reminds me of her. Obvious bang favorite naming magmoment sa ulan?

Grabe…di ko alam kung kakayanin ko.

I will miss someone who texts me ‘Good morning hon.” everyday.

I will miss someone who never fails to make me smile.

I will miss someone who reminds me to eat well every meal.

I will miss someone who childishly clings into my arms.

I will miss someone who pouts her lips when I don’t laugh at her jokes.

I will miss someone who shows me that my efforts are much appreciated.

I will miss someone who repeatedly forgives me when I have done something wrong.

I will miss my girlfriend. I will miss her.

Well, at this moment, I already miss her badly.

“NOOOOORMAAAAN!”  I can hear her voice calling my name. Yung mala-megaphone niyang boses na message tone ng cellphone ko.

Eto na nga ba! Nagsisimula na akong mag-hallucinate. Nagsisimula na akong mag-imagine…

I closed my eyes. I can feel every raindrops falling on my face. The raindrops remind me of the tears that I caused her. Suddenly, it feels like the rain has gone. I cannot feel the raindrops anymore. Tumahan na din siguro siyang umiyak…

When I opened my eyes, umuulan pa din naman. Pero bakit wala nang pumapatak na ulan sa akin? Suddenly, I heard a voice saying:

“When two people really love each other, they will always look for a way to make it work no matter how hard it is.”

That voice…that voice is familiar. That is my girlfriend’s voice!

Pagtalikod ko, nakita ko si Laika. She is holding an umbrella. She is smiling. Pinapayungan na pala niya ako…di ko napansin. Ang manhid ko talaga kahit kailan!

“Khai…akala ko…”

“You know what Norman? It hurts me to continue but it kills me when I stop.” After saying that, naiyak siya…at naiyak din ako.

“So, you’re giving me another chance?” I asked her.

“Promise me first that you won’t love any other girl after me.” she demanded.

“Sorry Khai, di ko matutupad yan…”

“So, may susunod pa talaga sa akin?”

“Oo…kamukha mo pa tapos tatawagin ka niyang Mommy.” I smiled.

“YOU’RE STUPIDLY ROMANTIC NORMAN! Ang corny mo kaya mahal na mahal kita eh.” Then she pulled me for a hug.

"I love you and please let me make this right."

"You don't have to be perfect to be right for me." she answered with a smile.

How did I get so lucky?

‘It’s much easier to turn a friendship into love than love into a friendship. At dahil ayaw naman naming hindi na magpansinan in the future, edi hindi nalang kami magbebreak!’, I said to myself.

Pinasan ko siya sa likod ko & WE PLAYED IN THE RAIN, HAPPILY EVER AFTER!
