Joaquin has been a good friend to me, now, he's like meteors passing by. It makes me sad thinking that our friendship never meant to stay the way it used to be. I ruined it ... I ruined everything.

"Sana huwag mong kalimutan na andito lang ako, kami ng family mo. Handa kaming makinig sa problema mo." He reached for my hand and held it tightly. "Sana naman huwag mong solohin, andito pa kami, hindi ka nag-iisa ..." He added with a hoarse voice.

Naramdaman ko ang muling pamumuo ng aking luha. I let out a loud sigh before looking at him. I can see the gentleness of his eyes fixed with mine.

He wiped the tears slowly falling down my face. "You're not alone. We are still here. I'm here ... with you." I started to cry louder as he come near me and hugged my trembling body.

Sa bawat salita, sa bawat tanong niya, luha at panaghoy lang ang aking naging tugon. Para bang sapat na ang mga iyon para maintindihan niya aking nararamdaman.

Bakit kailangang humantong sa mga luha ang lahat?

This man holding me is wiping my tears caused by another man I desperately thinking of ... If only you are here with me ... maybe I could have made it easy.

Would there be another chance for the star like him to come down to me again?

Bakit kailangang sa kanya ko pa maramdaman ang ganitong pagmamahal? Of all people, why him?

Joaquin is here with me ... He's been there for me offering his love. He's been too honest about his feelings for me. Bakit nagawa ko siyang lokohin?

"Sorry ... Sorry! I've betrayed you ..." Iyon lang ang tanging salitang lumabas sa aking bibig. Sa kabila ng mga kabutihang ipinakita niya sa akin noon at hanggang ngayon, alam kong hanggang doon lang 'yun.

Alam kong hindi ko magagawang tumbasan ang pagmamahal niya para sa akin. He's heroic love for me is too much luxury I know I didn't deserve.

He deserve someone better. Someone who can give more than he deserve, and someone who's not afraid to show her real feelings. Hindi ako bagay sa kanya.

Or maybe I am waiting for someone ... Maybe I am waiting for another star, or a meteor? And if it is possible to reach me, I will patiently wait even if it would take me a whole decade or my whole life.
