It's one cold night, the cold wind blew as I took a glance on my window. I was about to close it when a car parked in front of my unit; patiently, I waited to check who the driver was. No one came out of the car. Wala. I closed my window, checked my phone if a friend messaged me to pick me up. Biglaang gala na naman ba to? 55Please respect copyright.PENANAXqJub2KZg7

"Tangina, Gala na naman ata to" I sat on the couch, checked my phone as it rang because of a notification. 55Please respect copyright.PENANAujquUvdQM2

Napatayo ako nang makita ko kung sino ito. I don't know what to feel or what to do. I immediately stood up to check the car from my window but it was too late. My door bell chimed. 55Please respect copyright.PENANAmJCVFpUfZt

Before I even walk towards my door, a familiar voice spoke. Hinding hindi ko makakalimutan ang boses na 'yon. 55Please respect copyright.PENANAUxZXYX30dm

"Jeth?" he called.55Please respect copyright.PENANArmIPKHyTnP
55Please respect copyright.PENANAfTZcS5Nrs5
A tear fell down my cheek, still standing and frozen. He called again, knocking on my door this time. 55Please respect copyright.PENANAaOTWpa9bL7
55Please respect copyright.PENANApZT6gKqYVz
"You're not going to open, don't you?" his voice trembled.55Please respect copyright.PENANA1kEgyesiLR
55Please respect copyright.PENANA8RmPN3fDCs
As much as I wanted to move and hug him, hindi ko magawa, hindi ako makapag salita. Sunod sunod na tumulo ang luha ko at humagulgol ng tuluyan, Elias still knocking on my door. 55Please respect copyright.PENANAnjG0zSaB5x
55Please respect copyright.PENANAcPjKRhRIUE
"Please?" 55Please respect copyright.PENANA2fAK9PCT5H
55Please respect copyright.PENANAzLZGgU0hyK
"This will be the last, Jeth. I won't go here again to beg. So, open this door para makapag usap na tayo, please?" 55Please respect copyright.PENANABNuwuGlnPI

He continued speaking, i remained. And what is he saying? last? wait..55Please respect copyright.PENANAyrMZAYWDeP

"Eli?" i spoke. lately realized what he have just uttered. I jumped out of my position, ran towards my door and was about to hug him and say sorry, cry on his shoulders and fix everything. 55Please respect copyright.PENANAjhNrmYIHXP

Nasa loob na sya ng sasakyan, hindi ko alam kung nakita nya ba ako pero hindi na ako nag isip pa. He started driving, away from my house. I ran and screamed.55Please respect copyright.PENANADAckBabFwo

"ELIAS!" i shouted but the car didnt stop until he reached the traffic light post near the subdivision. Natakbo ko na pala ang buong area namin kakahabol kay Eli. I knocked on his window as soon I reached his car. He didn't roll his windows down, not even a glance. 55Please respect copyright.PENANAep7HYdvGxw
55Please respect copyright.PENANALR5alSbimQ
"Eli, let's fix this? I'm sorry. Let's talk, open this door" I asked, suddenly, he spoke to me.55Please respect copyright.PENANA3rSTQKr7TI
55Please respect copyright.PENANAjG0qqK17sm
"You could've told me that earlier, Jethro. What did i tell you? Last, diba? and you wasted that last" 55Please respect copyright.PENANAw93KMfCRIY
55Please respect copyright.PENANAlQyuIujEzD
What's with this guy? parang kanina kinukulit pa ako to fix this and bakit ngayon nababaliktad? 55Please respect copyright.PENANAd65MpmhQzN
55Please respect copyright.PENANAxqf3MhlS5O
"But you were the one asking to fix this kanina, diba? Now, i am asking you ikaw naman ang may ayaw? What now? you only want chase? only want to run and not reach the goal? What happened with the Elias i know, the Elias that loved me, the one who's pride isnt that high, the one na hindi ako kayang saktan." i stated, making him roll his windows closed again. The traffic lights turned green, continued to drive, and leaving me by the road. 55Please respect copyright.PENANApQH4dj8m0W

Bumalik ako sa bahay at umiyak mag damag. I should've spoke earlier, if only i did edi sana ayos kami ngayon. I tried calling him multiple times, no answers. Magbabasakali pa din ako. 'Yan ang tanging masasabi ngayon. 55Please respect copyright.PENANAXZ7zg9fXR3

"I miss you. Your voice, touch, and your presence. Sing to me again, El. Play guitar na ulit? You're as beautiful as the tone of your music. Come back to me, please?" I sent that message and closed my phone. I didn't even realized that i already fell asleep.55Please respect copyright.PENANAlHosdbXWG5
