Iiwanan ko na nga ba ang pilipinas? Before MAY. It is quite a short time before that BEFORE MAY. I sighed out of frustration. Kaya ko bang iwanan ang mga bagay na mahalaga sakin sa Pinas? Will I give up everything for my dreams? Timothy.

Teka nga, bakit mo ba sya iniisip Kai?
You'll go to Paris. Without him knowing. Without his permission. You're not his, remember.

*tak*

Someone stepped on my veranda. Who could it be? This early? 5 AM in the morning? Wag mong sabihing si Timothy nanaman 'yan. I swear I'll kill him. Ang laki nyang istorbo

Sinarado ko ang laptop 'ko. Naglakad ako papunta sa pintuan ng veranda 'ko para malaman kung sino 'yung nandun. Imposible kasing pusa. Dahil unang-una.. walang pusa sa subdivision namin, at--- ang lakas naman ng yabag na 'yun para mangyaring pusa ang nagmamay-ari ng mga paang 'yun.

Tinabig 'ko ang kulay puti 'kong kurtina and saw a guy standing right in front of me. Tanging ang glass door lang ang naghahati saming dalawa, pero sobrang lapit namin sa isa't-isa.

It's Vincent, pero hindi sya naka-business suit ngayon or what. He's wearing a casual gray sleeves at puting tokong. He smiled at me and gently tapped on the glass door, saying like--

"Hey, would you let me in?"

I nodded as I mock at him.

"Hindi ka naman maaga ano?"

I said, sarcastically as I watch him make his way through my room.

"Your room is small."

"I am small as well, thanks for the insult."

Umupo sya sa kama 'ko and looked at me.

"Did you slept well? You look dreadful."

I rolled my eyes. Nandito ba sya para mang inis?

"Actually, Mr.Monte.. I was really about to make a sleep when you entered the scene. But since your here, I don't really think that I can sleep. You made me dreadful."

He nodded.

"Then sleep while I'm here." I laughed unbelievably.

"Really? I don't know how can you act like that."

I closed my eyes and throw my body on the bed, pagod na talaga ako. Iwasan ko man, the sleepless nights has begun last night. Due to my frustration of Timothy.

"Don't think of him and just sleep, I'll watch you. I'll be here, I'm not gonna leave."

Kunyare natutulog na ako. Pero hindi, namumuo ang mga luha sa mga mata ko. Humiga ako ng patagilid, Ayoko na makita ni Vincent na umiiyak ako.

"I know I'm not in the position to tell you this, but Kylene.. You deserve to be loved, hindi ka dapat sinasaktan."

I gasped, niyakap ko sya.

"Tama na, don't tolerate me. I will just cry like a baby."

I sobbed. Hindi ko na kayang itago pa lahat. Mahal ko si Timothy, and it hurts because just like before.. He's too close yet so far. He's a burning sun, and I am just a human, I can't touch him. He's so hard to reach.
