I clenched my fist when his question suddenly made me ask the same question to myself.
May tiwala ba sa akin si Nic?
“You've been together since, what? Almost three months? You seemed to be too confident about him. If you think you already know Nic, you're wrong. You see, he's like a puzzle. Akala mo buo mo syang nakikita pero marami pang piraso ang nawawala.” Seryoso pa rin na sabi nya.
I looked at him. Nakipag sukatan ako ng tingin kay Napoleon before I finally said something.
“It doesn't matter if he trusts me or not. I trust him, and it will stay that way.” Bumuntong hininga ako. “Look, Napoleon. I don't know why you're doing this. I feel grateful that you came all the way here because you care, but I don't think having you here is the best.. idea.” Mahinang sabi ko.
Ayoko talaga
