At a young age, I was already taught well by my grandparents. At kung meron man akong natutunan, ito ay ang paulit ulit nilang sinasabi sakin. They told me that you can always talk about how you're going to do it all you want, but each day you choose not to start is another day far from who you know you can really become.
This is why, at a Friday night, I suddenly decided to go to your house. Call you in the middle of the night and told you to open your window.
Isa ito sa dahilan kung bakit sa gitna ng daan, with nothing on my hands but the keys of the car that I brought and my determination to let this feeling go. Isa ito sa mga dahilan kung bakit sa pagka-lalim nang gabi ay pinili kong laksan ang boses ko hanggang sa ikalawang palapag.
Isa ito sa dahilan kung bakit sinabi kong mahal kita.
Naalala ko pa ang itsura mo noon. Magulo ang buhok. Pikit pa ang mga mata. You asked me, what did I say.
I smiled and walked towards my car. First day of December. Year 2019.
Dear Love,
Ni hindi ko man lang nalaman kung narinig mo ang aking isinigaw. Bakit bigla kang lumisan?
