MINGHAO

"Where are you?" bulong ko sa sarili while walking at the same spot back and fourth. Hindi na naman siya nagpaalam sakin. I hate this feeling so much.

I kept glancing on my phone pero hindi parin talaga siya nagcha-chat.

All of my life, hindi ako nakaramdam ng ganitong pag-aalala at takot. But this darn girl keeps on making me nervous everytime she's away. What the hell is wrong with me?

Napatingin ako sa phone ko dahil bigla na lamang itong umilaw. I thought it was her pero si Seungcheol hyung lang pala. I sat on my sofa bago ito sinagot.

"Hello Minghao?"

"Hyung? Napatawag ka?" tanong ko.

"Nag-chat sakin si Tita. Namimiss ka na daw nila. Baka pwede daw us bumisita" si Mama talaga. Hindi na lang ako ichat.

"Sige hyung. Ako na kakausap kay Mama" sabi ko. But then I feel like I have to tell him something.

"May sasabihin ka pa ba?" rinig kong tanong niya mula sa kabilang linya. He really knows me.

"H-ha?"

"Hindi mo pa binababa. I know you wanted to tell something" bumuntong-hininga muna ako saka nagsalita.

"Hyung, I seriously don't know myself these past few days. Hindi ko alam kung anong nangyayare sakin" panimula ko. It actually started when she came. When she was always there to make me feel I am not alone.

"Jaycee right?" hindi ko magawang um-oo. I just stayed silent for a moment.

"I knew it. You are starting to like her don't you?" again, hindi ako nakapag-salita. Kahit ako, hindi ko alam.

I've never felt this before. In my whole existence hindi ko naranasan kung paano mag-mahal.

"Yung feeling na kapag nakikita mo siya, kinakabahan ka and your heart starts to beat erratically. When you cannot stop thinking of her. When you just wanted to take care of her. Yung hindi ka mapakali pag hindi mo siya nakikita" all of that, I felt all of that. Am I really.. falling in love?

"Love is an incredibly powerful word. When you’re in love, you always want to be together, and when you’re not, you’re thinking about being together because you need that person and without them your life is incomplete."

"Love is caring and giving someone happiness she deserves. Love makes us selfless kase mahal natin sila"

"Minghao, I know you don't believe in love but why don't you try this time? Maybe you'll get the happiness you've been wanting for? Don't be afraid, Hao."

"H-hyung, thank you. I'll work on it" sabi ko sa kanya then turned off my phone.

THIRD PERSON'S

Minghao still can't get off his mind what Seungcheol said. He was still confused this time, but one thing is for sure.

"M-minghao?" he immediately darted his eyes on the door seeing Jaycee standing there.

Para bang hindi niya nakontrol ang katawan niya when he immediately stood up and pulled her for a hug which made her startled a bit.

"U-uyy" nauutal na nasabi niya sa ginawa ni Minghao.

"I was trying to reach you all this time. San ka ba galing?" tanong niya still hugging her. He liked the warmth. He liked how they're bodies collide.

"S-sorry. Na-lowbat kase ako so hindi na kita na-contact. Sorry Hao" he didn't gave her a reply but he was still hugging her.

"Hao, I'm sorry" he wanted to be mad at her for making him worried at her but he just can't.

"Just don't do that again. Wag mo na ulit ako pag-alalahanin ng ganun. I'm sure magagalit si Hyung kapag nawala ka" when he was involving his brother, hindi niya alam ang mararamdaman niya.

Inaalagaan lang ba siya nito dahil sa kuya niya? Dahil sa responsibilidad niyang bantayan ang dalaga? Siguro nga ay ganun lang talaga at wala nang malalim na dahilan.

"Matutulog na ako, Minghao" she was about to leave when he grabbed her arms again causing for her to face him again.

"May kailangan ka pa ba?" Tanong niya sa binata.

"Call me like that again" she furrowed her eyebrows. Tama ba ang naririnig niya?

"Call me Hao again"
