Alyana Grace’s POV
Should I even be feeling this way? After witnessing Reign’s death… do I even have the right to be happy?
Yes, I am happy right now. I'm with someone I loved. We're finally here in South Korea, this is my dream place.
If my life ended right at this moment… I think I’d leave this world smiling.
“Bal! Am I dreaming right?” Tulala si Fayeche.
“Hindi na, bal! Totoo na ‘to!” natawa ako.
Marky wasn’t with us. He stayed in the Philippines to handle Reign’s funeral. And Faye… she doesn’t know. We intentionally hid the truth from her.
Yes… I felt guilty for Reign. I once lied to Marky and told him that Faye was dying, but the truth was, it was Reign who needed him the most. I felt sorry for both of them. I still do.
“What’s the problem?” he asked.
I just shook my head. I didn’t want to burden him. Not now. Not when everything finally felt light again.
He kept holding my hand gently, while his other hand held Brent’s. Having him with us felt like safety, like assurance that everything was going to be okay.
Good thing Dylan knows how to speak Korean. We didn’t struggle at all. He basically saved us the entire trip.
“Annyeonghaseyo!” Faye greeted every Korean person we passed. Her pronunciation was basic, but her energy was overflowing, and it made the locals smile at us every time.
Dylan toured us everywhere. We went to Nami Island, Bukchon Hanok Village, and every tourist spot our bodies could handle. We walked until our legs ached, but none of us complained. And last... Gyeongbokgung Palace.
My favorite spot.
We even wore hanboks and took pictures... so many pictures. Group photos, trio shots with Dylan, photos with just me and him, me and Faye, and then our own solo shots. We captured everything.
It was overwhelming… in the best way possible. Because this… this used to be nothing but a dream before.
I never imagined I’d make it here. But here I am. I allowed myself to be happy with them.
Kinagabihan, sa hotel kami natulog. Kinabukasan naman ay concert ng BTS.
Si Dylan bumili ng VIP tickets para sa lahat.
“Tsss, Dylan Keith…” mahina kong bulong.
He insists on carrying everything... especially the bills. He says it’s his way of repaying me for all the times he feels insufficient. Pero ang totoo, wala na siyang utang na dapat bayaran sa akin. I could never pay back what I owed him. He saved me… again and again. Siya ang lalaking gagawin ang lahat para sakin.
Sobrang lakas ng tibok ng puso ko. Umaabot sa point na nauubo na ako, at sumasakit ang dibdib ko.
"Babe.. are you okay?" He whispered.
"Yes babe.. don't worry." I smiled.
Nasa pinaka-harap kami. Katabi ko si Dylan at Brent. Tahimik si Brent pero halatang excited makita si Kim Seok Jin.
