I hated him for hurting me but I never said I don't love him anymore. He hurts me but I love him even more for that. I'm really insanely in love with him.

"Are you happy?" Aristotle asked me with his wary voice.

I immediately nodded my head. "Yup! I'm super happy because of what he has said! Grabe! I think I will always fall for him!"

He rolled his eyes. "Yeah right. It's really not obvious that you are happy."

I smirked and shrugged my shoulders. Masisisi niya bang masaya ako dahil sa naging pag uusap namin ni Limwell. I waited for that day, I waited for him.

"But he never said he loves you." Pinitik niya ang noo ko. "Wake up, Yries." and he left.

My brows creased. "How dare you! You ruined the moment!"

"Nah, I ruined your fantasy, dear cousin." he shrugged his shoulders in a dramatic way, "Moment moment."

I rolled my eyes and threw a pillow in his direction. When I hit his head I immediately ran towards my room and locked it.

"Yries Macalia!" he shouted but I just laughed. "You brat!"

Sa lahat ng pinsan ko. Siya ang pinakapanira sa pagpapantasya ko kay Limwell. Konti na lang talaga ay iisipin kong may gusto siya kay Limwell. But of course, that's only a joke.

As I reached my bed, mabilis akong sumalampak doon at kinuha ang cellphone ko. I searched for the name of Limwell on messenger to check if he's online. I want to text him, I want to chat with him. I want to know if he's already gone home.

When I asked him if he was in love with me, he did not answer. No word came out of his mouth. Instead, he pulled me and hugged and said 'You're my Queen'.

He's not online. I pouted my lips and licked it. I typed a message for him. Just a simple message to make sure if he's okay or what. Hindi ko naman siya puwedeng istorbuhin kung nagtra-trabaho siya.

Me:

How are you? Nakauwi ka na?

I hit the send button. I was supposed to put it on the table but it vibrated. I immediately opened the message and read it.

It's not Limwell. My knees became weak. I thought it was him.

Dale:

Good morning, Ms. Macalia. Where's your hard copy of your paintings?

My eyes widened. I almost forgot about it! Oh my god. Oo nga pala, pinapabalik niya ako para ibigay ang mga paintings na ginawa ko. Kung hindi pa siya nagtext ay baka nakalimutan ko na. And I'm so dead.

Me:

Oh. Good morning po. I'm sorry, galing kasi akong vacation. But maybe later, I'll give them to you.

I take a glance at the screen of my phone. I read the text again before I hit the send button.

Dale:

Okay, sure. I'll wait for you.

I never mind what he has said. I turned off my phone and I started to paint a tulip. I love tulips because every time I see one of them I remember how my life is.

It always starts at close tulips that are representing a pain, guilt, sacrifice, unlove,sadness but as time goes by it will open the beauty of it and the problems will fade away.

I get my phone while I am painting. Hinihintay ko ang tawag ni Limwell dahil nangako siyang tatawagan niya ako at mukhang may pupuntahan kami. And I'm excited for it!
