...

It was a cold Sunday night on the 5th of June

"God, I'm freezing here" Rex thought to himself

As he tosses and turns around his cold, bulky bed; Rex can't shake his depressing thoughts away from his mind.

Only one was on his mind. Happee.

...

He stares at his phone and scrolls through miles and miles of pictures of folders that contain Happee and him.
"If you only knew how much I miss you" Rex said to himself

...

Rex is an average, teenager that is taking up Accountancy in San Beda College. He's actually afraid of the new environment in which he will enter, for he does not know what unpredictable fate holds him there.

...

It's abnormal to see men cry, especially because of silly things such as a horrible break-up. Rex slowly wiped away his tear as he tried to forget all of his memories with Happee.

...

A flashback of the last time he saw Happee started playing in his mind again.

The problem is, he can't. After he pushed himself into that mess; he wants to fix it. He begged Happee to take him back, but no. He failed.
"No take-backs" Happee said

"Aren't you a man of your word? You wanted to break-up and here you are, trying to take me back. Like a fool." Happee angrily added

...

Rex made no response.

...

He walked for hours, starting from her house until he finally got back home. That scene in his mind looped, which seemed endless to him. Repetitive torture. It breaks his heart everytime he remembers it.

...

But all of the lies that striked Rex the most was when Happee told him was this,
"You're the most wonderful man that entered in my life"

...

"Bullshit." Rex whispered softly to himself

...

Suddenly, his phone rang.

*Rex picks it up*

"Hello?" Rex said

"Hey" The voice calmly said

"Oh, hey Stella!" Rex happily greeted

"Hahaha. I've heard about what happened between you and Happee, do you want to talk or rant about it sometime?" Stella asked

"Oh sure, when are you available?" Rex asked

"Umm... I'm available today, I have to teach some kids and I get money from tutoring so.... I'll treat you! How does 12-1 PM sound?" Stella offered

"Wow, that's so sweet and... unlikely of you" Rex said jokingly

"Unlikely? Why? Haha" Stella said

"N..Nothing.. So where do we hang-out?" Rex asked

"Oh there's this cafe and fast food chain near where I teach, it's called Congressional Plaza. I'll meet you there." Stella said
