Emperyo Lazaro

09:

" i never knew you were one hell of a kisser, Lazaro. " he complimented. Andito parin kami sa top floor, the sunset was beautiful to observe, and now we enjoy each others company looking at the night sky that is abundant with stars.

" you flatter me too much, you were one too. Atleast give credits to yourself din kahit minsan. You deserve it. " i said as i felt him get closer to me, feeling his warmth battled with the cold whips of wind at night.

" ah so pag hinalikan ulit kita, i should credit myself in between kisses ganon? "

" ay tanga, of course not, you'll ruin the moment. "

Napaupo ako, the pavement was cold enough to give me wheezing cough.

" I have a question, pero okay lang kung 'di mo sasagutin. " aniya ko, napaupo rin naman si Rio sa kinahihigaan nito.

His expression is his permission sabi nga niya.

" What happened between you and your ex? Bakit kayo naghiwalay? Ilang taon na ba kayo together? " sunod sunod na tanong ko, namalayan ko nalang na tumawa na si Rio, aliw na aliw si gago.

" Chill with the questions, miss. My ex felt that i wasn't making time for her- "

" But are you really not making time for her? "

" I am, pero the past few weeks before our breakup non, i asked her on a date pero hilig niya gumawa alibi kala mo gagawa nobela- "

" Bakit ka niya hiniwalayan? She should understand the circumstances you're in. Hindi yung puro ikaw gumagawa, ano patutunguhan niyo j- "
"

Tumawa ito ng pagkalakas, kala mo katapusan na ng mundo. Pero he looks happy despite the heartbreak he endured, and i adore him for that.

" I know, that's why i broke up with her, not long before i found out na hindi lang pala ako yung boyfriend niya, mayroon pa palang isa. So i asked her the night we broke up na kung saan ako nagkulang, kung bakit niya 'ko niloko and wala, nakatingin lang siya sakin habang ako sinusubukan 'wag umiyak kasi i knew she wasn't worth my tears. " sagot nito, he really loved her yet the woman chose to push such amazing, gentle and loving person that is Rio away. Bakit?

" She fell out of love from you, didn't she? "

" That's what exactly she told me, Kira.  Kaya natakot na ko magmahal ulit. " nakatingin lamang ito sa kawalan, but his words cut straight into my heart, para bang sinaksak ako.

Napatango na lamang ako, she was his first love. Ano magagawa mo, Kira? Magpakatanga nanaman? Tulad ng ginawa sayo noon?

" But not until i met you, Kira. Not until i met you. "

Napaawang nalamang ang bibig ko, now that is a revelation.

Ako? Bakit ako of all people?

" Now tell me, bakit kayo naghiwalay ni Leone? Alam kong may history kayo. I was there when he dumped you. "

He was there?

Napatingin na lamang ako sa gawi niya. Tell him, Kira. Let go of the grudges.

" He broke up with me dahil sa isang babae, hindi ko rin alam kung saan ako nagkulang but i gave him my all. Binuhos ko sakanya lahat ng pagmamahal na meron ako, lahat ng atensyon sakanya lang nakatuon, dumating lang yung best friend niya na babae, nawala na ko sa litrato. "

" You mean Esmeralda? "

" No, not that bitch, sipsip yun. "

Napahalakhak ito, lagi nalang tuwang tuwa sa side comments ko.
