My tears are falling nonstop as I open the door. Kahit alam kong si Kyle nga iyon, nagulat pa rin ako nang makita siya sa harapan ko. After ten years of being apart, he's now here, so near to me. Kung dati, I can't see him, ngayon ay sobrang lapit na niya. With just only one step, I can touch and reach him again.

He looks at me with so much longing. I didn't waste more time and I went to him to hug him. I am longing for him, too, and now that he's here again, I won't let him slip away. I've been waiting for him and now, he's here!

"Eunice..." the same husky voice and a British accent before. Lalo akong umiyak nang marinig ang boses niya. "I'm here... I've found you..."

Ibinaon ko ang aking mukha sa kaniyang dibdib. His body built changed. It's more matured than before, like he worked it out. Hindi ko pa masyadong nakikita ang mukha niya but I am sure that it doesn't has much changes. And his scent? Oh, it's still the same as before; a very manly scent that can make you crazy!

I felt him hugging me tighter. I missed being in his embrace. The warmth from his embrace is hugging me. It may me calm down.

Ayaw ko mang umalis sa yakap sa kaniya, but I pushed him a little. Naramdaman ko ang kaniyang tingin. I looked at him too and he welcomed me with so much caring and adoration. I don't know what I look now, I don't care! He already witnessed the times I am crying a lot or when I am stressed before.

"What... what took you so long?" I said while still looking at his eyes. He didn't answer so I had to pull him inside my unit. We don't know if there's paparazzi out there.

His looks became serious. I was thinking if my conclusions were true. Is he already married? He just find me to... have a closure?

Bumagsak ang aking tingin sa tiles ng condo unit ko. I was in the verge of crying when he hold my waist, closing the spaces between us. He holds my chin up and before I could do something, I felt his lips on mine. It was far from our kisses back then. The first kiss we shared was ten years ago... and that was just a smack kiss.

He deepened the kiss more. Mas hinapit niya ako sa aking beywang habang patuloy pa rin siya sa paghalik sa akin. I am in cloud nine because of his kisses that I can't help but to cry. I longed for this but why I am feeling guilty?

I let myself to cry and I stopped kissing him. When he noticed that I am not responding to his kisses anymore, he stopped. I tried to look away but he keeps on finding my crying eyes.

I am happy that he found me yet at the same time, I am hurt.

Is this really a goodbye for us? But... why did he kiss me?

"Eunice..." he called me while still making me look at his eyes. My body shivers as I heard him called my name.

Why did you have to break me this hard, Kyle? I've waited and it should be worth it... but why I am in pain?

"K-Kyle... no, stop. Y-You are just... h-hurting me again," I said while my voice is shaking.

Curiosity is written on his face, I could tell that just by looking at his eyes. He looks in pain, too.

"W-What are you saying?" he asked and held my hands. Mabilis kong hinila iyon pero nahuli niya at hinigpitan na ang paghawak. "Why are you being like this?"

It hurts me hearing his voice. His voice is shaking, too. I could feel the pain with it.

"It's... wrong, Kyle!" I tried to sound cool but I just end up shouting at him. Pinakiramdaman ko ang aking nararamdaman but as seconds pass by, there's a building anger on me.
