We're not meant
6:58 am.
Two minutes before the class starts that's why I'm hurriedly running towards our room. I'm afraid that our terror lecturer might got angry with me again. This time, natatakot ako. Natatakot akong mapahiya sa'yo.
It all started the first time you caught my attention. You were a transferee that's why you don't have any idea about my rules. You were sitting on my usual spot. I raised my eyebrows but the hell! Ni hindi ka man lang tinablan ng katayaran ko.
"What's your problem with me, Angel? If you want my attention then I'm sorry, I am too busy right now. "
My friends started teasing me again. Ika nila'y nakahanap na daw ako ng katapat ko. After that incident, mas lalo yatang dumagdag yung inis ko sa'yo. I think of an idea para makaganti. It's our P.E class ng sinadyang tapunan kita ng mineral water na iniinom ko. Your shirt got wet. I was expecting that you'll got angry or yelled at me again but you didn't even utter any single word. Hindi ko tuloy mapigilang makunsyensya.
"Klent, si Lucifer na naman ba may gawa n'yan? May gusto talaga sa'yo ang isang 'yon. Palaging nagpapapansin e."
I heard what your friends said. Instead of getting angry because you and your friends keep on calling me Lucifer, my conscience slowly kills me. Buong araw suot suot mo yung damit na binasa ko. Ni hindi ka man lang nagpalit ng damit.
"What's wrong with you? Magpalit ka nga ng damit. Baka magkasakit ka."
"I only have this shirt. Hindi ako katulad nyong mayayaman na kayang bilhin lahat."
After that day, hindi na kita kinulit. Pinipilit ko ang sarili kong umiwas kahit na ang totoo ay napakahirap kasi iisa tayo ng school na pinapasukan.
"Hey Lucifer. What's wrong? Bakit hindi ka na namamansin?"
"You should be happy now. I'm sorry sa lahat. Sige alis na ako."
Before I could even make a single step, you held my hand. My heart starts beating too fast.
"Can I invite you for a lunch, my Angel? I miss you. "
I can't explain what am I feeling back then. Mas dumadalas na yung mga araw na magkasama tayong dalawa kasi palagi mo akong niyaya maglunch. Binibiro pa nga kita na baka maubos na yung pera mo pero hindi ka talaga nagpapaawat. You told me you have your job and that's one of the reason why I fell for you.
Nanligaw ka, sinagot kita. You even introduced me to your parents and they accepted me wholeheartedly. Ipinakilala kita sa parents ko pero hindi ka nila tinanggap. They told you that you were poor. Na hindi ka bagay sa isang tulad ko.
At dahil mahal kita, hindi ako nakinig sa parents ko. I am willing to break their rules just to be with you. But then one day, you left. You left me with no reason. Hindi ko alam kung nasaan ka. You left me alone. You left me so broken.
Lumipat kami papuntang Laguna. I want to change my environment. I want to forget you. This time, I want to pick up all the broken pieces.
I love you so much that's why it became hard at first. But after I met Evan, everything becomes so easy. He helped me to forget you Klent. He was always there during the times I'm crying because of you.
You are meant to be part of my life but you're not meant to stay.
I think were not really destined for each other kasi kami talaga ni Evan ang para sa isa't isa. After seven years, we got married. That's the happiest day of my life until you came back.
"Why did you not wait for me, Angel?"
"Wait for you? After you left me with no reason? Bakit ka pa bumalik Klent? "
"I came back because of you, Angel. Nagsumikap ako para maging isang ganap na doktor para maging karapat dapat sa'yo. Para matanggap ng pamilya mo. I am here now, Angel. Bumalik ako para sa'yo."
"I'm sorry Klent but I am now married. Wala ka ng babalikan. "
