OS #10: LIE

(Song playing: December Avenue - Dahan)

Kasabay ng pagpatak ng mga luha sa kanyang mga mga ang pag-uulit ko sa aking mga salita.

"I'M MARRYING EUNICE."-

I looked away, not meeting her beautiful eyes.

Damn it.

"B-but, Frank... H-how about us?"- Her voice cracked up and tears run down from her eyes.

Pinilit kong hindi punasan ang mga 'yon. 

"We're done. It's over. Break na tayo."-

Tiim-baga kong wika.

Shit.

I'm doomed. For fck's sake! 

"But w-why? M-may problema ba? Sabihin mo naman, para maayos natin 'to. I love y---"- I cut her words, sealing her lips with mine.

I tasted her sweet lips, still the same as 5 years ago. How I'll miss this.

Damn, what a life.

"This will be our last kiss. We're over. Bye."- Tumalikod ako agad, bago pa kumawala sa aking mga luha na nagbabadya sa aking mga mata.

"Are you sure about this, Bro?"- I looked at Eunice, my niece.

I closed my eyes at muling nakita ang aking pinakamamahal na babae, Shaina...

"Yes. Ayoko siyang mahirapan. I'll be gone after half a year! A-ow shit! "- I chuckled and felt blood trickled over my nose.

Damn.

Eunice looked at me- with pity.

"Wag mo 'ko kaawaan. No one's at fault. Maybe it's my bad luck- to have this disease. Gusto kong may makasama siya habang buhay. I love her so much but all I can do is to let her go."- I looked outside, at her place.

Now, someones offering her a handkerchief and she gladly accepted it.

I want to shout,

'NO! THAT'S MY GIRL! THAT'S MINE!' pero wala eh, SHE WAS ONCE MINE.

I don't want her to live in vain with me. I looked at my phone at muling binasa ang mensahe mula sa aking Doctor. 
-
'Frank, I'm so sorry dear. Pero malala na talaga ang sakit mo. You have leukemia. And you have 2-5 months to live. This is your Doctor, Dr. Liam Severo.'

I LOVE YOU THE MOST, My Love.

That will be our last kiss. And you will always be my first and last love. I love you.

"Sorry, I lied."-
