" Don't let what he wants eclipse what you need. He's very dreamy, but he's not the sun. You are." - Dr. Cristina Yang

Pia

It was already past five in the afternoon when Pierce came to fetch me. Namangha ako sa suot niya. He was on a business suit. Ang guwapo niya tignan.

He smiled.

" Ang guwapo mo naman" I told him but he just smirked at me.

" Pakakasalan mo na ba ako nito?" He joked then winked at me.

I stayed quiet. Dinaan ko nalang sa pasimpleng pananahimik.

Pati siya ay natahimik na din.

Nang makapasok kami sa kanyang sasakyan ay agad siyang nagsalita.

" Tinanggap ko na yung alok ni Dad, Pia" Panimula niya. Tumingin lang ako sa kanya bago siya nginitian.

" That's good" Simpleng sagot ko lang. Huminga siya ng malalim bago ako muling tinugon.

" Would you rather not let me leave? Because if you would give me atleast the slightest idea of you not wanting me to leave then I wouldn't, Pia." He said. Matagal na niya itong pangarap at simula nung naging kami ay sinabi na niya ito sa akin. We had this plan even when we were still in a relationship before. Kahit nong hindi pa kami naghiwalay ay ito na ang plano namin.

" Paano kaya kung huwag nalang akong umalis?" He then asked me again. Tuminin ako sa kanya.

" Bakit naman sana?" Ngayon pa talaga siya aayaw.

" Para makasama kita" He said.

" Pierce" Eto na naman kami.

Napapikit na siya.

" Ayoko lang na umalis na ganito parin tayo, Pia. I know that we both are trying so hard to make this work but I fear all the possibilities. Pia, walang silbi ang lahat ng pangarap ko kung mag-isa ko lang. We planned on doing it together. But I don't want to leave you" Knowing Pierce, he changes his decision so fast. Ang bilis niya magpalit ng desisyon.

" I thought we're clear on this matter, Pierce" I told him.

" We are Pia. But I fear that you might fall out of love for me. Ayoko yun Ms. Commander" He honestly said.

" I don't want to go through the same pain again when you left me" He continued.

I looked at him

Eto na naman tayo, he's going to get emotional again. This is the emotional Pierce I am looking right now. The Pierce I don't know how to comfort when it comes to such situation.

" Pierce" Wika ko sa kanya. Tumingin siya sa akin bago tumingin muli sa daan. Hindi pa niya ginagalaw ang manubela ngunit binubuhay niya lang ang makina ng sasakyan para sa aircon.

" Ayoko din naman eh. Pero wala tayong ibang plano kundi ito, Pierce" I told him. Ayoko din ng ganito kami ngunit kailangan naming harapin ang kasalukuyan.

" When I have time, I will call you and you need to answer it. I need weekly break too because I needed time to come home and see you" He said again. This man can't be serious? He is wasting money for pete's sake.

" We can do video calls, Pierce. Hindi mo na kailangan pang umuwi linggo linggo" Wika ko sa kanya. This is the most practical way.

" Bakit, nayayakap ba kita kapag nagvivideo call tayo? Nahahalikan ba kita? Nakakatabi ba kitang matulog? Nakakasabay ba kitang kumain? Hindi naman ah" Untag niya na parang bata.
