Kabanata 16
WHEN a person was hurt, they would oftentimes wish they had never loved at all. Airin was asking herself, was it better to never have loved Les at all? To never feel, to never assume, to never expect?
Sabi nila, kapag nagmahal ka, hindi maiiwasan na mag-assume o mag-expect. Siguro nga ganoon talaga. Kasi sa bawat kilos niya, binibigyan ng dahilan... ng meaning. Maybe it was the reason many were hurt when in love. Because people assumed. Pero mali ba ang mag-assume? Masama bang mag-expect?
Hindi.
Masama lang kapag sobra na.
Ganoon naman talaga, 'di ba? Lahat ng sobra, masama.
Sobrang sakit.
Sobrang saya.
Sobrang mahal.
Kumalumbaba si Airin saka tumingin sa labas ng bintana. Wala ang atensyon niya sa professor nila. Ayos lang. Wala naman itong itinuturo kundi talambuhay
