"so, paano pa ako makakabawi kung
ikaw na ang bumili ng foods tapos ikaw pa
nag-isip ng place huh?"

"[smiles] it's okay, addi. i don't mind doing
the effort all day."

"..."

"how are you? is everything already
fine?"

"i'm okay na, xero. everything's already
in the right place, i guess? i was shuttered,
i cried in silence, i almost lost myself but
what matters is, i survived through all of
that."

"i'm beyond proud of you, for healing
and for surviving." he said, genuinely.

"ikaw? kamusta ka?"

"i'm okay when you're okay. to be
honest, i miss you."

"...."

"i'm still deeply sorry for what i did
years ago."

"it's okay. hindi naman ako galit sayo at
wala ka naman talagang kasalanan."

"that time, akala ko talaga gusto lang
ng closure ni hail. if i really know her
true intentions, i wouldn't have come."

"i know, sinabi mo na 'yan sa akin sa chat, diba?"

"i just feel the need to explain until today.
now, this feels more validated. "

"pierre got mad at me but i know i
deserved it. i'm even thankful for him
for being able to stop your attempt. i was
devastated when i heard that. i could've
been with you but i messed up everything."

"i know pierre got mad at you that time.
para siyang naging isang kuya ko pa na
super strict. i'm so grateful to keep him.
he's a friend that i wouldn't trade for
anyone else."

"and honestly, i envy pierre because he
was there with your lowest. i could've stay
with you the longest. i could've fix
everything for you."

"you were part of everything, nico. you just
don't know it. you don't know how your
words echoes more when i thought of
giving up. you don't know how it motivates
me when i know you're waiting for me."

"i know you're reading my messages but i
don't know if it has an impact for you until
you've said it today." he stated with his
eyes already brimming with tears.

"why are you already crying? you're
a crybaby today." she said as she consoles
and gives xero a side hug upon crying.

"i am already healed, nicobabes. i didn't
talk with you before kasi i want to fix
myself muna. gusto ko buo muna ako
para buo ko rin na mabibigay yung love
na para sayo. you don't deserve a half-love
and so, i want to pour you the right amount
of love." at the same time, she was also
crying but with a smile plastered on her face.

"whatever you can give, addi, is enough
for me. a million times enough." he affirms
as he wipes his tears away with the back of
his hand.

"but thank you, for thinking of giving me
the right amount of love."

"thank you rin, for always making me feel
enough and that i never lack in anything
that i do for you."

he softly hugs addilyn when they looked at
each other. silence enveloped between the
two as they stayed hugging, showing how
they missed both of their presence. it took
time before they pull away from each
other.

"are you okay na? do you feel better?" she
asked while fixing nico's hair.

"yeah, being with you really feels better."

"i hope this is not yet late to say this pero
congrats, engineer alvarez."

"i told you, i will always be after you.
congrats, engineer eravilla."

"anyway, what makes you wait kahit wala
namang assurance na i'm gonna go back to
you once i'm okay?"

"because it's you. if someone's going to be
worth of my time, i will make it you
because i don't want it with anyone else.
you can have all of my time and i won't
even complain."

she paused for a minute.
"let's try again now, shall we? better
make our time valuable by spending it
with each other again."

"you know i can't say no that. are
you sure? walang bawian."

"of course, nicobabe, i'm 100% sure na."

"okay, then i'm gonna be a billion percent
sure of this. i missed that nicobabe too ah,
addibaby."

"i know, kinikilig ka naman oh."

"of course, ikaw 'yan eh. palaging ikaw."

"palaging sayo, nico."

"se agapò, addi."

"i love you too, beyond what time
can hold."
