//bye// I said and ended the Video Chat.

I was preparing to sleep ng mag flash ang screen ng phone ko. I think it is from October since kumakain si Taza at wala naman ang tatawag saakin ng madaling-araw. I swipe to receive his call

//yes?// I asked. He remains silent before answering

//tell me, matutulog ka na ba?// tanong niya

//yes// I was literally about to close my Fxcking eyes!

//Ahw, sorry// he said in a very low tone

//no, it's fine// I don't know why I said those words. But I just did

//So What's bothering you? At hindi ka pa natutulog//

//Nah, I just can't sleep// his voice is warm from the other line //talk to me till I sleep, Agape //

//You can't be serious, right?// am I a damn sleeping pill?

// I am. Talk to me, Agape// he sounds so tired yet he's still awake and want me to do shxt for him

// Then what should we talk about?//

// I don't know, Agape. Just keeps on talking// why the fxck is he demanding such thing?

// I don't really know what to say or do in this kind of situation//

// Haha, I know. I just want to hear your voice// why would he?

// Why?// Kinda creepy though

//it just...gives me comfort// wow, October Wow

//A Suicidal giving you comfort?// he must be joking, right?

//Yeah. Pretty Ironic isn't?// Ironic, it is

//Can I ask you something// tumikhim siya


//Where are you right now?// Did I sound a bit weird? //The room you're in earlier is like in a hospital//

//Nope, nasa office ako ni tita// oh okay


//Why do you want to end your life? Agape?// I want to run away from myself

//I'm tired// maikli kong saad // Why are you asking such thing?//

//Basta. I made a short poem for you// really?

//here it goes.... Breath, Smile, my Princess
                          The world is too cruel to be
                           Let's ignore it and kiss
                               Don't let go, Please?//

  Breath and Smile. But that doesn't change anything. I tried not to lose myself but for Fxcking Fxck, it feels like hell. No one really understand how suck my life is.



//Do you call that a poem?// I tried to break the silence



//It is, haha// Pss
