"Okay, anong klaseng story ang gusto mo?" tanong ko habang nagmimiryenda kami sa balcony.
"Hmm... tell me a story about a girl and a boy, who fell in love to each other!" sagot niya, excited na nakatingin sa akin. Napangiti naman ako.
"In a faraway land, there was a rich girl named Devine and an ordinary boy named Luke. They met in school, and little by little, they grew closer. Luke admired her from afar, until one day, he finally found the courage to confess. To his surprise, Devine felt the same. They were happy-dreaming, loving, and holding on like nothing could ever break them."
Priscilla was smiling, clearly loving the story, but I knew what was coming next.
"But life doesn't always go as planned. One day, Luke was accused of something he never did. He tried to explain, but Devine chose to believe the rumors instead of him. It broke him. He waited, he fought for her, but in the end, Devine walked away, thinking it was the best decision. They parted ways, pretending to be fine, but deep inside, they both knew-they were never meant to lose each other."
Did they meet again?
I smiled faintly, looking at Priscilla. "Maybe someday. Maybe in another time, in another life. Maybe then, they'll finally have their happy ending."
"Ang lungkot naman, kuya," malungkot na sabi ni Priscilla. "Bakit hindi mo ginawang happy ending?"
Napangiti ako bago ko sinagot, "Because I want you to know, not all love stories end in 'happily ever after.' Some end with lessons, heartbreak, and a love that wasn't meant to last-but was meant to be felt."
