A letter to Rafael Eusebio Nolasco

Dear Raffy,

Hi! I know it's been a month since that day. Ang totoo hindi ko rin alam kung bakit pa rin kita naiisip o bakit gumagawa ako ng letter sayo dito sa notes ng phone ko. As if naman ibibigay ko 'to sayo.

Anyways, I heard this new song na kakarelease lang and it made me think of you. Magsisinungaling ako sa sarili ko kung hindi ako nasaktan dahil sa lyrics ng kanta.

So yung girl na palagi mong minamyday for the past month, girlfriend mo na pala ngayon at ang cute niyo dalawa.

Hindi ko alam kung bat ko naiimagine noon na magiging girlfriend mo ako, hindi naman tayo bagay. I am not as attractive as her so we wouldn't fit together.

Hindi ko alam kung bakit ako nagkaroon pa ng illusion na magugustuhan mo ako. That day, iyong sinabi mo na gusto mo ako, may kaunting part sa akin na hindi naniniwala pero there was still a larger part of me na umaasang totoo yun.

I was blinded by my feelings for you kaya hindi ko agad nalaman na joke lang pala lahat.

I know, sandali lang yung time na nagkausap tayo pero kung makaasta ako parang ang tagal na nating nag-uusap. It was just that I never felt this way towards anyone, totoong gusto kita kahit sa sandaling panahon na yun.

I still want you to be happy and I'll always hope the best for you even if ganun ang nangyari sa pagitan natin. Like I said, I don't hold grudges so I'll never hold this against you.

Who would have thought that the person who saw my weakest state would be the one making me strong by letting me feel this pain.

Salamat sa pakikinig ng mga rants ko nung nagvideo call tayo. Nashare ko sayo halos lahat ng problems ko from family to academics at nakinig ka talaga at nagbigay pa ng advice. Kulang nalang iiyak na ako that time.

So I may never know your side of the story but I know you really did care for me at some point. Kasi hindi ka sasayang ng oras na kausapin ako kung wala ka namang pakealam sa akin.

Hindi ka magsasayang ng oras sa akin kakavideo call kung ayaw mo talaga sa akin.

I feel like you really did like me but just not enough to choose me.

So if ever you see that in her, she must really be special.

Lastly, hindi ko alam bat nakakarelate ako sa song na 'to. O bakit naisip kaagad kita pagkarinig ng lyrics ng kanta.

Hindi ako nagpaubaya kasi in the first place hindi ka naman naging akin.

We were just two strangers who talked this quarantine. Never something more.

Just quaranflings.

But know that I really did genuinely like you.

Despite the end. Despite everything.

With best regards,
Milana Aubrielle Gorostiza
