Borrowed Time

Prolouge

I've never come up with a thought of breaking my own beliefs.

I never let any people stepped my personality.

I never let someone try to convince me to let go of my griefs.

And I never ever let myself to trust easily in any other people. Even my own family. Sounds absurd, right?

But something unexplainable experience encountered me. It proven my beliefs, wrong. And it also broke my burden griefs, that totally turned me into a lighted-heart person.

Isang iglap, nagbago lahat.

Isang pag-ngiti, sumaya lahat.

Isang karanasan, na nanatili magpa-kailanman.

At isang pikit... nawala lahat.

I thought, everything was just a dream. That everything wasn't exisiting in reality, that's what I think at first. But I never considered a point, if everything was just a dream... Bakit naramdaman ko ang pagbabago? Sa sarili at sa mundo na dating kinamumuhian ko?

I'm sure that I met them personally, that I felt their presence literally.. and I loved him, naturally.

Naramdaman ko ang mainit na yakap niya mula sa likod ko, at bahagyang nakapatong ang baba niya sa balikat ko. Kasabay ng pag-ihip ng hangin ay marahan kaming napasayaw habang nakangiti.

Wala sa amin ang nagsalita, at tila ba ay nakikiramdam lang sa isa't-isa. Napapikit ako sa sensasyong nararamdaman ko, nakapikit lang ako habang dinaramdam ang yakap niya at ang marahan naming pagsayaw.

"Hey," He blurted.

"Hmm?"

"Will I remember you after this? As you will remember me too?"
He softly said.

I chuckled, and as I opened my eyes I felt my heart just quickly melting because of the smile that sweetly curved on his lips.

"I'm sure you will. How could you forget me, huh?" I smiled. At pinihit niya ang bewang ko at hinarap sa kanya, nakita kong napangiti siya at pumikit.

"Always remember that our hearts will remain forever for what it is, even if time goes anywhere, even if fate will take us apart. Even if my soul can't remember you, our connection will find a way. Souls can coherence anywhere as long at it is." He uttered. And those words immediately burried in my mind, stuck in my heart and connects to my soul.

My borrowed time will never be mine and definetly will never last, but one thing's for sure... I will always remember them, I will always remember him and everything. They came into my life once, and there's this one scar that left into my heart that serves as a reminder that I truly met them and him that changed me to a better person.
