Tesa yelled. Wala siyang pakialam kung may maiistorbo man siya dahil sa pag-iingay niya. Putangina, magkakapakialam ka pa ba?

Tesa's feet, too, were screaming pain. His legs trembling fear. Her whole body felt like giving up, especially when her heart felt like malfunctioning, too. 

 Hindi na maiintindihan ni Tesa ang nararamdaman niya. Bumibilis ang pagtibok ng puso niya dahil sa pag-aalala, kaba, at sakit.

Tesa wanted to fall right onto the ground underneath. Napapagod na siya sa katatakbo. Pakiramdam niya nilibot niya na ang buong syudad nang isang oras na, walang humpay na tumatakbo habang umiiyak, walang hinto-hinto para huminga man lang.

Tesa was praying for a millionth time already, but the heavens seemed to be deafened by her repeated and the same prayers that the heavens didn't hear her. But Tesa kept himself positive, as much as she could... 

 Jisoo is still nowhere to be found. And is still missing. Tesa couldn't spot even a single track of him.

Tesa paused, and her eyes wandered around the whole area.  "Jisoo, please..." iyak niya, at kaagad na pinunasan ang mga luha. Pero wala pa rin si Jisoo, wala pa ring ni isang bakas ni Jisoo.

Tatakbo pa ulit sana si Tesa, pero bigla siyang napahinto nang may maalala. The place... where Tesa stood was a public park, crowded and filled with strangers.

"... where the world can't find us, where the world is us..." 

 Tesa gulped, and squeezed her eyes shut as a bell was rung. "Tesa naman, clue na 'yon. Mag-isip ka, tangina naman, o," bulong niya sa sarili. "Narinig mo na 'yan sa kanya dati pa, 'di ba? Isipin mo anong lugar 'yan." 

And Tesa remembered something four years ago....

Jisoo smiled at her, his eyes crescent, his cheeks fluff-ing.

"Let's date." She smiled back, and nodded. "Sige ba. Kailan?" 

 "Bukas," sagot ni Jisoo, at tinaas-baba ang parehong kilay. 

"Saan?" 

"Somewhere where we can hide from the world, where the world is only us," Joshua answered, and smiled wider. 

"Mm... Secluded Park. Okay."
Tesa's tears immediately built up in the corner of her eyes. "Bakit ngayon mo pa naalala?!" Sigaw niya sa sarili, at kaagad na tumakbo ulit. 


 Secluded Park is rather far from where Tesa is, but she didn't mind. Ininda niya lahat ng sakit, at pinili pa ring tumakbo.

She needs to see Jisoo... he needs to find him. 'Yan ang paulit-ulit na sinisigaw ng utak niya sa kanya, it seems like it is her brain's way to distract her from the throbbing pain.

Sumisigaw na ang buong katawan niya na sobrang sakit na. Ikaw ba naman tumakbo lang ng tumakbo nang walang tigil, mula rito hanggang doon, doon hanggang dito. Nakakabaliw kaya. 

She stopped on her tracks when she finally stepped on the grassy ground of the hidden park.

The wind was blowing against her, greeting her good day, but it wasn't a good day. The sun was up and bright, it seemed to be a really good day. The branches of the trees were swinging in the wind, the leaves were falling and dancing as gravity pulls them down. 

Tesa cried, hoping that Jisoo is just somewhere near. 

Tesa went further inside the park, her eyes searching for a familiar figure.

"Ako ba hinahanap mo?"

Kaagad na lumingon si Tesa sagilid niyakung saan nagmula ang boses ni Jisoo. She showed a happy yet melancholic smile as she saw Jisoo sat heavenly underneath the shade of a tree, smiling widely at him.

Slowly, weakly... she walked towards him. And when she got near, she fell on her knees as she cried in front of him, head down.

Jisoo bit his lip, his own tears started blurring his eyes too.

"Tangina mo, Jisoo, tangina mo talaga," Tesa cried.

"Te-"

Before Jisoo could finish his sentence, she immediately held his cheeks and kissed him harshly.

It was a rough kiss, but Jisoo responded tenderly. He held Tesa's neck, his thumbs against the others cheek. Jisoo willingly parted his lips for her, and did not further fight for dominance.
