K2 scene: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3E1nyrPU-t4

 🍉 : Just use that scene to imagine them! Gosh, I'm not  fan of K2 but I'am a big fan of SNSD and Ji Chang Wook.

Chaster's POV

"What are we?" I repeated and shrugged. "I was supposed to ask that. What are we, Daniella?" I asked again.

"We're friends. . . " she uttered and looked away. Wala rin akong alam kung ano ko ba siya. Are we just friends for benefits?

"See?" I hissed. "And you just said that being friends were good enough. I believe you so I already know my limitations! But know what?! In my own observation. . . A man and a woman can't be friends when they already had feelings for each other. And I don't want to ruin our relationship so I'm trying not to fall for you as much as I could."

"What's wrong with you, Chaster? You'd  never been like this before. You already knew the truth about Landon before I did. Why the hell you didn't tell me? Masaya ba na pagmasdan akong parang tanga."

"See? Para kang tanga, Daniella! I don't believe you in the first place! Wala kang feelings sa akin dati pa kaya mo siya pinili? You'd never on a situation like this if you had chosen me. Bahala ka na sa buhay mo!"

I haven't finished my sentence because she slapped me. "Then what the hell?! Pinapamukha mo sa akin, That you are much better than my husband?!"

"Am I not?" She didn't answer. Napaupo siya sa sahig at umiyak ulit. Nakatakip ang dalawang palad niya sa mukha.

"Bahala ka sa gusto mo, Danny. Isa pang lapit mo sa akin nang ganiyan babawiin na talaga kita kay Lucas."

"I don't care about everything else. What about our daughter, Lizette? Anong sasabihin ko sa kanya?"

Napabuntong-hininga na lamang ako at umupo rin para maging magkapantay kaming dalawa. "I will accept everything about you, Panget. Ito na ang pangalawang beses na susugal ako. Fix your problems with my brother. Ask him why. He had a reason, Danny. Trust me."

"I don't know how. Paano kung totoo nga? Paano kung hindi yun pagkakamali?"

"Swear, Ako na mismo ang hahabol sayo." I smiled.

"You always know how to make the situation easier. Thanks for your concern, Panget!" Lumapit siya sa akin at hinatak ang dulo ng t-shirt ko. She used that to wipe her tears so I just smiled.

"Sana dati pinakasalan na talaga kita. Kung alam ko namang sa gagong yon' ka pa mapupunta."

Binatukan niya ako bago tumayo at magpagpag ng sarili. "Danny, alam mo yung Halaga ng Parokya ni Edgar?" Tanong ko habang naglalakad kaming dalawa pabalik.

"I'm not fan. Ano ba 'yon? Gitara lang ang alam kong kanta nila."

"Find it out. Pang 35-38th lines ng kanta."

"Katamad. Sabihin mo nalang kasi!" Iritang sabi niya. Nakarating na kami sa entrance at maghihiwalay na kami ng daan papunta sa kaniya-kaniya naming kwarto.

"Sabihin mo na lang kapag alam mo na. Libre kita ng milktea." Humiwalay na ako sa kanya sa paglalakad at nag-wave. I saw her smile before I turned my back at her. Napaseryoso na lang ang mukha ko bago tuluyang umakyat ng hagdan.

Danny, Know your worth and what are the things that you truly deserved. I'm willing to give everything just for you. Everything for your happiness.
