"Denise!" nakarinig ako ng sigaw mula sa aking likuran. Even if I don't turn back, I know who he is. He's the only one that is so good at writing poems, got his hot looks, cool while he's singing. Yes, indeed. He is Zendrix.

"Yes? Do you need anything? I really have to go. Sorry," akmang lalakad ako ay bigla niyang akong hinawakan sa magkabila kong balikat. Shocks. His gaze went dark - I mean- darker. His sharp jaw was tightly clenched. His eyes was so dead serious! Shit! Did I said something that can offend him? I really have to go! That's the truth!

He stared at me. If he only got powers, I might be killed by it. "Why are you like that? These day you look stressed and you always got bruises. Tell me, is there something bothering you? Did someone beat you up?" his gaze went soft and became worried.

It's been a week since I chose to ignore him. I really need to ignore him. Not because I really wanted to but - it's for his own sake. I won't be long in this world anymore. I want to tell him the truth but I doesn't care anymore.

"N-nothing. I was just... I was just busy these past days. That's why I couldn't have time to party." I lied.

Agad kong iniwas ang aking paningin sa kanya at pinaglaruan ang aking kamay. Huminga ako ng malalim dahil sa mga luhang nagbabadyang lumabas.

"I know your keeping secrets from me, Denise. Damn it! I've already told you that if there's something that I need to know, you could - should tell me, rather. Damn it, Denise!" shit! I knew it. He really knows how to read my expressions. He really knows me well, huh? I just couldn't lie to him.

"Let's go," he hissed. I frowned.

"Wait, what? I really have to go, Drix." I fired back.

"Ihahatid kita," he said with his baritone voice. He gripped my hands really tight. The fuck?! He started to walk fast and I can't do anything but to follow him.

Damn this guy! I cursed in my mind.

I stopped walking and he turned at me with his expressionless face. My heart was beating so fast. It was not on it's normal state. I parted my lips to say something but the fear ran to my wholly and my jaw froze. Shit!

"What? Have you eat mirienda? Let's go and eat. Ako ang magsasabi kay Tito na kumain tayo," I heaved a deep sighed, sign of relief.

We walked acrossed the parking lot of the campus while a lot of eyes was watching us. Well, of course, I'm with this cool guy of the campus. Nothing's new. Everytime we're together, lot of bitches was staring at me. Saying that I was just being friendly with Drix because of his famous title. 'Face of the Year'. Well, every year, he always got that goddamn title becuase of his looks. Sino ba naman ang hindi manghihina sa titig ng isang Mendez.

Pale skin, long coffee-brown hair, long lashes and brows, thin pinking lips, pointed nose, sharp jaw and the piercing in his left ear.

We went on a cafe. While we were inside his Bugatti, there's a big wall of silence between us. Noone dare to speak. I'm tapping my both hands on my thighs while staring at those huge building in my right window. I opened the window and let the wind touch my face. I closed my eyes and inhaled the fresh air.

I frowned when I couldn't feel the air touching my face. I opened my eyes and I saw the window. It's closed. I went my gaze at him with curious look. He glared at me with his dead serious eyes while his hand was holding the steering wheel tightly closed. He went back his gaze at the road. I never dared to let even a word split in mouth.

"So, you don't want to speak, huh?" he shrugged his head with little curve in his lips. "Denise..." he spoke with his husky voice. "Were you avoiding me? Have I done something wrong? Tell me," I zipped my mouth. I didn't talk. I badly want to tell you the truth Drix but I don't want to hurt you. "Fuck! Denise! C'mon tell me! It's frustrating me! Damn it!"

I was shocked. Nagda-dalawang isip ako kung sasabihin ko ba sa kanya o hindi. Lumingon ako sa kanya at nagtagpo ang aming mga mata. Nangilod ang aking luha at agad pinunasan ang tumakas na luha.

Kigwa! Ang tigas ng ulo ng luha ko! Teka, may ulo ba sila?

"Damn, baby," ginulo niya ang kanyang buhok. "It's okay if you don't want to tell - " I cut him off.

"Fuck it, Drix! I have brain tumor that's why I'm avoiding you!" I shouted before I get out of that car. I walked as fast as I can just to get away from there.

He hold my arm and I just found myself hugging him... Again. Why is it so hard to let him go? Thid isn't for myself! It's for him!

"Please, Denise, don't go," he whispered and his voice cracked. I closed my eyes tightly before I pushed him away. I need to do this. Not because I could... Because I should.

"I'm sorry. I'm so sorry," I cried.

"Babe," I pushed him.

"We can't be together!" I shouted. I saw tiredness and pain in his eyes. I'm just waiting for him to raise his white flag as a sign that he forfeited.

"Why? Is it because of your reasons, huh?"

"Yes," I lied.

Sorry, Drix but it wasn't because of me. I'm doing this for you.

Years pass. Maybe it's time to face my fears. I feel better now. And I keep on thinking that is he doing well?

Well, I guess? He's been on magazine every fucking day! He's so successful. I'm so happy for him.

I'm here in the beach for my friend's wedding, Nicole. Well, she found her love. I'm so proud of her. She's now tied up!

I'm facing the sunset and I'm wearing two piece bikini and a see through cardigan. I also wear sunglasses. I open my arms widely as I breathe the fresh air of Boracay.

I went on my senses when a thing hit on my foot. I looked at it and it's a soccer ball. Kinuha ko iyon at luminga kung sino ang may ari niyon. And a tall man went on me with nothing on his top aside on his necklace. My eyes grew bigger as I gave him the ball.

He looked straight in my eyes but it's not the way he look at me before. He... change. And I guess, it's for the better.

"Here," I gave him the ball. Muntikan na akong mautal! I mentain my pokerface but my handa were shaking. Buti na lang naka-shades ako.

He held the ball and our hands touched! Oh my God! He turned on me and he walked without saying anything.

He change.

For the better.

Without me.
