rebound series #4 | epistolary
he wasn't even my type.
not in the way i used to describe it to my friends, not in the way i imagined the person i'd fall for. but somehow, he grew on me slowly, in ways i didn't even notice until i was already there.
at hindi ko alam kung totoong matagal na silang wala ng kanyang nakaraan.
that's what makes it worse.
he never slipped and ever hesitated. he looked at me like everything was real. every message, every call felt rehearsed, felt like something i could trust.
so i did.
i trusted him enough to let my guard down. enough to believe that maybe this time, i wasn't just a passing phase in someone else's life.
but i was.
i found out the way no one ever deserves to, through silence that suddenly made sense, through truths that came too late, through the quiet realization that i was never the only one.
i wasn't the choice.
i was the cover.
the space he filled while he was still holding on to her, the version of love he showed when the real one wasn't around.
and now, i'm left here replaying everything, wondering which parts were lies and which parts i just imagined into something more.
i regret entertaining him.
i was only wasting my time to someone undeserving like him.
