Rachel's POV
"Hindi ikaw ang unang sumira sa rule. Ako. Ako ang unang sumira. Naalala mo nung iniwasan kita? Nasaktan ako nun. Nagseselos. Nung kasama mo palagi si Jinro. Kaya nasa bar ako lagi. Pinilit ko noon makalimot kaso hindi ko makaya. Kasi alam mo, sa tuwing lalayo ako sayo... lalo lang kitang minamahal. Nung una, sabi ko sa sarili ko na... 'I know she won't fall for someone like me. I'm a playboy. And I know she won't like that. We just knew each for a while, but fvck! She already captivated my heart. Eh pano niyan? Una pa lang alam niya ang pagka-casanova ko? I fell for her and I know she won't.' Ang akala ko talaga hindi mo magagawang mahalin ang tulad ko. Kaya nga nabigla ako nung sinabi mong mahal mo ako."
Kinikilig pa rin ako hanggang ngayon!
Papasok ka pa ng school. 2 days na ang nakalipas ha. Makikita ko nanaman siya. I am so excited to see him again. I can't wait!
Pagkadating ko sa school, sinalubong ako kaagad ng Tres Marias. What to expect? Wala na nabago. Para nanaman silang nasa palengke. Dinala nila ako sa Auditorium saka nila ako iniwan. Ang dilim! Saka ano ba?! Male-late na ako.
Biglang may nag-flash na ilaw sa may banda doon. Isa isang nag-flash mga pictures... pictures ko. Tapos may narinig na akong gitara.
~ Well let me tell you a story about a girl and a boy. He fell in love with his best friend. When she's around he feels nothing but joy. But she was already broken. And it made her blind but she could never believe that love would ever treat her right. Did you know that I loved you? Or were you not aware? You're the smile on my face. And I ain't going nowhere. I'm here to make you happy. I'm here to see you smile. I've been wanting to tell you this for a long while. ~
Ang boses... si... si Austin? Ang ganda ng boses niya. Siya ba talaga to? Isa isang nagsibukasan ang mga ilaw and to my surprise... nandito lahat. Pati instructor namin. Eh bakit hindi ko naman sila narinig? Aba. Pinagplanuhan ah.
~ What's gonna make you fall in love? I know you got your wall wrapped all the way around your heart. Don't have to be scared at all, oh my love. But you can't fly unless you let yourself... you can't fly unless you let yourself fall. ~
Oo. Inaamin ko. Takot pa akong magmahal ulit. Pero wala naman sigurong masama kung susubukan ulit diba? Saka si Austin naman to eh. Si Austin naman ang minamahal ko ngayon. Pero kahit papano... may takot pa rin sa puso ko.
~ Well, I can tell you're afraid of what this might do 'cause we got such an amazing friendship and that you don't want to lose. Well, I don't want to lose it either. I don't think I can stay sitting around while you're hurting, babe. So take my hand. ~
Yeah. Austin and I got such an amazing friendship na ayokong mawala. Pano kung maging kami... tapos nag-away... nag-break... mababalik pa kaya ang dati naming pagsasama? Kaya medyo takot pa din ako.
~ Well did you know you're an angel who forgot how to fly? Did you know that it breaks my heart every time I see you cry? 'Cause I know that a piece of you's gone every time he done wrong I'm the shoulder you crying on. And I hope by the time that I'm done with this song that I figure out... ~
Piece of me's gone? Yeah. It's the Trust. Nahihirapan na akong magtiwala ulit. Mahirap na baka mangyari ulit ang nangyari noon. Ayoko na masaktan ulit...
~ What's gonna make you fall in love? I know you got your wall wrapped all the way around your heart. Don't have to be scared at all, oh my love. But you can't fly unless you let yourself... you can't fly unless you let yourself fall. ~
~ I will catch you if you fall. I will catch you if you fall. I will catch you if you fall. But if you spread your wings, you can fly away with me. But you can't fly unless you let your, you can't fly unless you let yourself fall. ~
Tama. Handa siya para saluhin ako. Sabi niya lagi lang siyang nasa tabi ko. I'll fly away with him. I'll stay by his side. Hindi ko siya iiwan. Ready na ako para sa lahat. Basta siya. Siya na nagligtas sa 'kin. Siya na laging handang umalalay sa 'kin. Siya na laging nagpapasaya sa tuwing malungkot ako. Siya na laging nang-aasar sa akin. Siya na mahal na mahal ko na.
~ What's gonna make you fall in love? I know you got your wall wrapped all the way around your heart. Don't have to be scared at all, oh my love. But you can't fly unless you let yourself... you can't fly unless you let yourself fall. Fall in love. I know you got your wall wrapped all the way around your heart. Don't have to be scared at all, oh my love. But you can't fly unless you let yourself... you can't fly unless you let yourself fall. I will catch you if you fall. I will catch you if you fall. I will catch you if you fall. But if you spread your wings, you can fly away with me. But you can't fly unless you let your, you can't fly unless you let yourself fall. ~
Ang ganda ng kinanta niya. It's about a guy who's been in love with his best friend for a long time but he's too scared to tell her. But then when he had the courage, he told her and she feels the same, the only problem is that he doesn't want to lose their friendship. He hates seeing her cry and sad. Parang kami lang ni Austin. He's my boy best friend. He also is afraid to lose what we have. But for the sake na nagka-aminan na kami, I'm not going to be scared anymore. I'm ready to face everything just for him.
"Rachel Elizah Levine?"
Napatingin ako kay Austin. May hawak siyang bouquet. May lumapit sa akin na isang guy tapos inalalayan ako papuntang stage sa Auditorium. Nang makarating ako dun...
"Rachel Elizah Levine, will you marry me?" Ang seryoso ng mukha niya. Natulala ako. Hindi pa nga nagiging kami... kasal na agad?! I am flustered.
"Ay. Mali. Haha. Excited lang ako masyado. Gusto ko kasi magka-apelyido na tayo para wala na makaagaw sayo. Hahaha. Pero eto na talaga. WILL YOU LET ME COURT YOU, RACHEL ELIZAH LEVINE, MY EVERYTHING?" Nagsitilian na silang lahat including our instructors. Asus. Libre sine ah. Romance genre. Kinikilig ako.
"Of course. I will let you, dummy. Hahaha." He hugged me and kissed me on my forehead. He gave me the bouquet.
"I love you." Sabi niya.
"The feeling is mutual. I'm not afraid to face everything basta kasama kita." Sabi ko.
"Magpapakatino na ako. Asahan mo ikaw lang. Mahal na mahal kasi kita." - Austin.
"OH TAMA NA ANG DRAMA EK EK NA YAN. KINILIG NA KAMI. OK NA. MAGK-KLASE PA TAYO. OK. PACK UP GUYS." Singit ni instructor.
Laughtrip naman kami. HAHAHAHAHA. So ayun na nga. Nagklase na kami.
