"God it's okay to be single but i just wanted to ask a favor na baka after 4 years pwede mo na akong biyayaan ng isang tao na masasabi kong siya na talaga ang hinahanap ko. Hindi naman ako nag mamadali God co'z i know youll going to find the boy or the man that exactly fits for me," naluluha kong wika habang nakatingin sa kalangitan, masakit pala ang masaktan noeh? Kaka break lang kase namin ng jowa ko, i mean EX na pala. Ang sakit talaga though some says bata kapa at mataas pa ang lalakbayin mo, cutie puppy love lang ang ganiyan kaya no— nono cry.
—AFTER 4 YEARS
"Hii," one word that he chatted to me and it's been so long since he and me are having a communication. Kumusta na pala ang taong ito, ang taong nagbigay sugat sa puso ko and it's a miracle na nag chat siya.
"Kumusta kana Juliana, i mean how's your life today? It's been so long and I'm hoping that you still remember me," ito kaagad ang kasunod ng "hii" niya, dipa nga ako naka reply. Wahh!! parang ang OA naman nito, di kaya ako matanda para makalimot lang agad-agad. Aysos ito pa nga din yong sakit oh, dipa din nawawala.
"I'm well alive and still breathing ,i'm happy with my life now and im just too busy spending it with my friends and family," i replied.
"A—ahh good to know Juliana,"
After that day na nag chat si Mark ay napapasin kong parang araw-araw at oras-oras na talaga kaming nag cha-chat. I can't understand myself why i kept chatting back at him and to be honest i feel something that i must not feel. I always think those past times kung paano niya ako sinaktan and i dont want to be hurt again. I thought God will give me the man i wish but why siya yong bumalik?
"Juliana, i know this is so stupid to ask this question but will you forgive me and give me a second chance?" he asked me personally ,well yahh nagkikita na kami ulit.
My heart is now in tremendous level when i heard what he asked and i just cant deny that I'm also falling for him once again.
"Yes Mark i do forgive you, though you are the boy who gave me pain ,but all of those was just in the past so lets move forward Mark," i said and then he hugs me so tightly.
Our relationship never gets so easily, he and me wanted that lowkey lang talaga ang status namin but never private. There are many challenges na hinarap na naman namin but we conquer it dahil our past teach us more lesson on how to be strong.
One day i just feel that i'm afraid dahil nga nalaman kong yong day na nag chat si Mark at nangumusta sa akin is the day na kaka—break lang ng jowa niya so i feel that ano to? kaya pala nag chat sa akin kase nasaktan at gusto lang niya ng may makausap? But hindi naman ako pwdeng manghusga lang and then Mark makes me realize that don't expect too much because that too much will hurt you so much.
Oo Mark really have a good time naman though laro ng ML ang palagi niyang inaatupag and then time comes na tinanong niya ako sa mga bagay na hindi ko expect at kinatatakutan na mangyari.
"Ipaglalaban mo pa ba ako Juliana despite sa mga nagawa ko sa iyo?" he asked and i just didn't answer him but i just smiled genuinely and kiss his forehead. Inside of my brain says, gusto kitang ipaglaban pero paano kung ikaw mismo ang susuko. I want him to realize that people are not permanent but it will give you many lessons.
Mark really teaches me a lot of lessons, sabi niya kapag ayaw na at talagang hindi na kaya eh mas mabuting tapusin na kaysa naman pareho kaming masasaktan.
But after all ito padin kami solido. Hindi naman talaga kase matatakasan ang selos or what ever pa diyan. I know Mark is the Mark that God sent me. I just can't imagine that wahh!! yong wish ko kay God ay tinupad talaga niya. I never expected that God just sent the new version of Mark. Yes! I'm still afraid if one day Mark will be vanished in just a blink of an eye. I'm praying that hindi yan mangyari and i know that Mark knows the best.
Mark and I are now Graduating and we both proud of each other. Hoping Mark will find this story of us.
—THE END—
