"Anong nangyari sayo? Bakit ka umiiyak?" Alex asked me, his eyes are full of concern.
He cupped my face with his huge hands and wiped my tears away.
Pano ko ba sasabihin sa kanya?
Patuloy pa rin ako sa paghikbi.
"Andami kasing nangyari ngayong araw. Yung tulips na galing sayo, naiwanan ko pa sa taxi."
Haynako. Di ko talaga mapigilang maluha pag naaalala ko yung kapalpakan kong yun.
"Yung tulips koooo. T_______T"
I heard him chuckle.
Napahinto tuloy ako sa pagmamaktol ko.
"Hoy Romero. Anong tinatawa-tawa mo diyan??"
"Ang cute mo kasing umiyak. I can't help it, Ms. Cutie." Pinisil pa niya yung pisngi ko.
"Ah ganun? Eh kung palayasin kaya kita rito? Saka pano ka nga pala nakapasok sa kwarto ko?? Kakasuhan kita ng trespassing!"
I was caught off guard when he gave me a quick kiss.
O_______O
O//////O
>_______<
"I HATE YOU ALEX!!" I shouted out of frustration.
"Eh bakit nagba-blush ka?" He asked me with a mischievous grin on his face.
Oh noes! Napansin niya?? O////O
Napayuko na lang ako. Talo na ko.
"I really missed you, Samantha."
I slowly met his gaze.
"I've said that I love you so much that I can't bear to see you crying pero… ako naman ang palaging nagpapaiyak sayo. Sorry for being the reason why you cry."
He went closer…
"Hayaan mo sana akong bumawi sa mga pagkukulang ko. Di ko lang pupunasan yung mga luha mo…
And intertwined his hand with mine.
…papalitan ko pa yun ng ngiti."
< * * * >
Naglalakad kami ngayon papunta sa park.
Mabagal ang lakad at magkahawak kamay.
"Hand in hand". :) ♥
Pero… di pa rin ako matahimik. May mga bagay pa rin akong gustong mabigyan ng linaw…
"Alex, pwedeng magtanong?"
"Sure."
"Nasan na si Nikki?"
I looked at him and waited for his answer. It took him a while before he said that…
"We broke up. Saka parang hindi naman talaga naging kami. What we had is more of… fling."
Kumunot ang noo ko.
Fling??
Si Alex Romero… nakilala ko bilang NGSB tapos nakipag-FLING? Jusme.
I listened to his explanation.
"I never loved her more than a friend. Wala lang sa ayos yung takbo ng isip ko nun kaya naisipan kong humanap ng iba. Maybe, I was hoping na kapag nagselos ka, you'll beg me to come back to you and in that way we'll be back together."
But… I did not.
I just let him go. Malay ko ba namang mahal pa rin pala niya ko.
"Kawawa naman pala si Nikki. Ginawa mo lang rebound."
