Marry

WHEN my tears dry, I decided to go to our terrace. I just want to visit Moonstars.
I am meters away from the terrace when I saw a built of a man, standing and looking at the moon and stars. I quickly hide at the wall.

What is he doing there?

"You're Sofia's friend, right?" Pagkakausap nya sa buwan.I shut my mouth.
"Noon pa man, ikaw na ang sinasabihan nya ng problema nya di'ba? Can I ask something" aniya at yumuko na para bang naiiyak sya.

Parang tanga, as if sasagutin ka nyan?

"Ako parin ba? Ako parin ba ang mahal nya? Ha,Moonstars? Kasi hindi ko na alam ang gagawin ko, I still so fuck'in inlove with her" natutop ko ang bibig ko.

What did he just say?

Tears again fall. But what should I do?

I decided to go near him. Yes, Ikaw parin Chris. Ikaw naman palagi. Pero takot na ako, I don't want you to enter my life again then leave whenever you want to. That's fucking hurt. Now I know why we're acting like this. We ended our relationship back then without having closure, and thats the thing we should have done long time ago.

"Chris,"I spoke.

He glanced and me then wipe something on his cheeks.

Wait? Is he.... Crying?

"Good evening. You should be sleeping now."He softly said.

I slowly stand beside him. "Can we talk?"

"Yeah sure."

I faced him. "I heard you talking to Moonstars a while ago.It's not true that you love me, you know that. Maybe it's just your conscience saying." I started.

"How come that it's my fucking conscience?! No, I am really inlove with you. It's still you." He said. Every lines of him, sent shivers down my spine.

"You know the truth."

"Is it about what I said when we broke up?" He asked using his weary eyes.

"No. That is the past, The past that we can't get over. After we broke up, I quickly go abroad. We didn't have closure that's why you're acting like this."I declared.

He caressed my chin, He gently touch my face and I let him. The heat of his palm calmed my heart.

"Baby.. I have my reason why I did that. Please, Baby. Give me my chance..."He paused. "Damn, God knows how much I love you."

Umiling ako at unti unting kinuha ang kamay nya na nakahawak sa pisngi ko.
"Kahit hindi ko alam ang rason mo kung bakit ka nakipagsplit sakin noon, We should leave it on the past. Please Chris, I am willing to be your friend like how we are when we're child. But, Don't you ever cross the line."

He bow his head and slowly nod."Let's be friends,then."

"Sure, Thank you. I hope it's clear for you."

"I am so inlove with you but if that's what it take to see you anytime, I can do it.  I'll be a good friend." He spat.

I don't know why I'm feeling this way, I should be happy because we already talked and it's already clear on us. But why it seems blurred on my heart. Why I felt my heart tightened. Damn!

Day by day,Week by week. My life is getting worse,Palagi ko nang naririnig na nag-aaway sina Mamay at Papay. I cannot afford to go shopping and buy all what I want.

"I think. You really need to marry a bachelor girl,It can help you." Si Julia nang mag usap kami tungkol sa pinag-awayan nina Mamay.

"Duh? Do I really need to do that?" Natatawa kong tanong. I'm here in her apartment. Sleep over daw kung tawagin nya.
