"Gusto kita, Chuchu! Gustong gusto kita!" Masayang sigaw ko, habang nakatanaw sa malayo. Isang malabong pangyayari ang nabubuo sa aking isip, paano kung gusto nya din ako? Imposible.

"May gusto akong babae, Chuchu. She's beautiful, kind, and smart. She's different, that's why i like her."

At malabong ako ang babaeng yun, Chuchu. Malabong ako ang babaeng nagugustuhan mo, paulit ulit kong tinatanaw ang nakaraan, baka sakaling makabalik ako do'n at naamin ang tunay na nararamdaman ko sayo nung mga bata pa tayo.

At the age of 7, i know i like you. At the very young age, i admire you a lot.

"Hush now, Chuchu. Stop crying, I'm here to protect you."

Sincere. That's the only word i can use to describe you while mouthing those words, yes you protected me from everything.

"Who's that guy, trying to play with you?"

You always make me feel important and special, because of your words.

We're both 7 years old.

"She's really different, she always makes me feel special whenever I'm with her!"

That's you, telling a story about your girl.

You're my Knight In Shining Armor, but I'm not your Empress.

Can't i be your Empress?

Can't i be your girl?

How can I unlike you?

How can I forget you?

"Anak, may rason siya ba't sya umalis. Siguro, kailangan nya muna ng pahinga. 'Wag kang mag-alala, babalik din siya."

You've caused me too much pain for leaving me, and chose to stay and study in America.

Iniwan mo 'kong nag-iisa, paalam nga ay hindi mo nasabi sa 'kin. Kaya pa'no kong sasabihin sayo ang nararamdaman ko?

Pinanghawakan ko ang sinabi ni Mom na babalik ka, na nagpapahinga ka lang sa America.

Pero...

10 years after, i didn't receive any call or messages from you. I didn't receive any news about you, you left me knowing nothing.

Can you please comeback?

Will you please choose to stay here?

Will you please stop causing too much pain inside me?

Will you please...love me?
