Devyn:
Maaga akong nagising—like, sobrang aga! Alam mo yung, ini-expect mo na makakatulog ka ng maayos dahil sobrang lanta ng katawan mo for deliberately doing physical activities to release stress?
That feeling that it deteriorates coz of that jerk! Hindi rin nawala sa isipan ko..kung paano nalang kung totohanin niya ang lahat? I mean, it was too impossible pero sa sinabi niya kahapon bago siya umalis? It was not a mere threat to scare me off—it was..real.
Hayst! Mas nilakasan ko pa ang tunog ng speaker doing my early workout routine. It was still four in the morning at hindi ko ugaling gumising as early as this pero hindi na ako makatulog uli. I played this Physical song that sang by Dua Lipa. When I lost much sweat—I rested and checked my social media accounts habang nagpapahinga ako.
Messages popped on my phone's screen.
Mga unknown number—may mga missed calls. I bothered not but this private message from..Arya. I drank my water—babasahin ko ba? O delete nalang? I breathed intensely kasabay ng mabilis na pag-palpitate ng puso ko dahil sa workout ko.
I deleted it.
I wished to move on from them. I needed time to fully heal my heart. Hindi madali pero..I was starting to restore.. I putted down my phone and took a bath. Pagkatapos ay diretso akong nagluto for my simple breakfast—I was on diet. Well, a balanced diet hindi pwede sa'kin na walang rice. I really believed everything should be in balance. Too much or less of something was bad enough—regardless kung ano pa man yun.
I fell in love too much. Yun yung mali ko. Dapat pala, magtira din tayo sa sarili natin. That was what I learned and should be served as a lesson..
Soft knocks heard from the outside of my door. I lazily set aside my book—I read this Sci-fi story. Mahilig talaga ako sa romance pero mukhang bitter-sour muna ako sa genre na yun. "Wait.." I opened the door and this delivery man greeted me politely.
"Good morning po maam.. Delivery po for Miss Devyn Domini?" I looked at this lavender box. 'Di ko type ang color.
"That's me. Galing kanino?" Kay Lorenzo? E, halata namang mga bulaklak ang laman ng box, e! If I knew, those were the flowers he bought from our farm last day. Ibinigay niya sa'kin ang box hindi ko sana tatanggapin kaso naawa ako sa delivery boy—ang dami niyang bitbit.
"Paki-check nalang po sa card, maam.. Para surprise po." Ika nito sabay ngiti. He let me signed and then I closed the door. Binuksan ko ang box nang nakasimangot. Then I read the card.
Please give me a second chance, Devyn. I love you. –Gio
Sa kaniya galing? I thought, galing kay Lorenzo! Mas lalo lang na umasim ang mukha ko thinking that Gio followed all the way here para malaman niya ang bagong condo building na naroon ako.
Isasauli ko 'to sa delivery boy! I opened the door para habulin siya siguro nasa lobby pa yun. When I was stunned by his presence, Giovanni? He was about to knock outside nang mapagbuksan ko siyang bigla.
"Devyn, g-good morning. Uhm, can I talk to you for awhile? Please? Kahit ngayon lang?" Paos ang boses nito at halatang walang tulog ang mukha. Served him right! Kulang pa ang pagka-haggard niya sa ginawa niyang pangloloko sa'kin.
But I needed to move on, right? No, I was moving on! So, I need to, at least, made this a closure with him for once.
"Get in." Emotionless, I said and widened the door. Kaagad umaliwalas ang mukha nito saka pumasok. Anong nararamdam ko ngayon for Gio? Well, hindi ko na gustong magalit sa kaniya—wala na rin ang spark na dala niya sa buhay ko for how many years. Nang magloko siya parang bombilyang sumabog. Wala na.
