VON
It's been a year since she left. Hindi ko alam ang gagawin ko, she let me realize that i need to value the ones who are there for me before it's too late, and she's the reason why i met her... i met the one i will love for the rest of my life, but i didn't listen to her, that's why napahamak siya ng dahil sa akin.

I am holding a boquet of flower para ilagay sa puntod niya, puntod ni Yesha, yes you read it well. Si Yesha, she's the one who let me realize, that i need to value Yajin. Nang malaman niya ang lahat ng mga pinaggagagawa naming magkakaibigan ay siya na ang gustong bumitaw sa tagong relasyon namin, Yesha was my ex.

FLASHBACKS

"Let's break up" Yesha said those words and then she walked away

"Wait, W-What?" Nasabi ko nalang at saka siya hinabol. I don't know the reason why she's doing this. I never did something that will ruin this relationship

"I don't need to explain Von" she said then stared at me blankly. Sa galit ko ay hinayaan ko nalang siyang maglakad papalayo sa akin

"Sana hindi mo pagsisisihan ang naging desisyon mo" i shouted as she walked away

"Yes" sigaw niya pabalik habang nakatalikod parin sa akin at naglalakad palayo sa akin.

Habang ako naman ay naiwang parang tanga dito sa labas ng school.

After a week of being lovesick, someone messaged me, wrong send daw eh halata namang hindi but i didn't mind. After a week or so, nakikita ko siya sa school, she's pretty though but that doesn't mean nakalimutan ko na si Yesha, i still love her

My friends did a bet, liligawan ko siya, at papasagutin, if i fell inlove with her, my car would be the target, at ayokong mangyari iyon. This is to test me if i already moved on from Yesha. But then of course ayaw kong ipakitang weak ako, so i messaged her, Yajin. Siya ang napagtripan nila dahil kasama ko sila noong time na 'nawrong send' daw siya, and damn, babae siya pero ang galing niyang bumanat men, but to think that i'm a man, kinikilig ako, tangina i don't know why and nagtuloy tuloy na ang nangyari, panandalian kong hindi naisip si Yesha, i planned to say i love her too, but that's somehow true, i courted her at napasagot din siya wakas

"Ano na tol? Moved on kana ba?" Tanong nila saakin, i didn't say a word because i'm not yet sure at ganun din sila.

Masayang kasama si Yajin, her sense of humor is kakaiba, yung talagang mapapatawa ka hanggang sa sumakit ang tiyan mo. We always have fun and there i fell inlove with her big time. It's easy to love her, hindi talaga ako nahirapang mahalin siya.

Then 6 months have passed, biglang nagpakita si Yesha sa akin

"V-Von" she said while crying na ikinataka ko

"Why are here? Bakit ka umiiyak?" I asked her with my worried face. Nandito ako sa mall para bilhan si Yajin ng gift and this happened.

"Von, i-i need you" napakunot naman ang noo ko sa sinabi niya

"Akala ko ba hindi mo pinagsisihang iwan ako?" I said na nagtataka sa inasal niya

"I-i'm sorry 'bout that but i can't just see you with another woman" sabi niya parin habang umiiyak

"Look, Yesha, i love my girl so please, huwag ka nang gumawa ng bagay na hindi ko magugustuhan" i said and was about to leave ng magsalita ito

"My cancer ako, and i left you because of that, ayaw kitang makitang naghihirap ako, b-but my decision was very selfish, ako naman pala ang masasaktan na makita kang nasa piling ng iba, i-i'm sorry but i need to spend more time with you before i... B-Before i d-die.." Sa sinabi niyang iyon ay niyakap ko siya sa hindi ko malamang dahilan, dahil sa awa? O dahil mahal ko pa rin siya?

"Walang mamamatay, you're still going to meet your the one" pagpapatahan ko sa kaniya

'If i said yes sa offer niya, would Yajin understand? Well, i'm sure she will'

"Okay, papayag ako, but please huwag mo itong sabihin kay Yajin" i said, this is for the happiness of the one who was once become special to me,

"Thank you Von" she said then hugged me tight

2 weeks have passed at nakakalimutan ko na si Yajin because of Yesha, i admit that naattach na ulit ako kay Yesha

Nandito kami sa park, we're smiling and laughing like we own the sidewalk, i turned to my right and damn, nakita ko 'yung sasakyan ni Yajin sa gilid, but instead of thinking about her, i just focused on Yesha, i'll explain it soon but not right now

***
Nandito ako sa bar with my friends, i am confused on what i'm feeling right now, pero imbes na pag-usapan namin ay pumunta na ako sa dance floor at sumayawsayaw with other chikababes upang mawala ang nararamdaman kong ito. Hindi pa ako nagtatagal ay may nanghila na saakin at pinaupo

"Von umamin ka nga? Ano ba ang nangyayari sayo? Hindi mo man lang ba naisip si Yajin bago mo gawin ang mga yan?" panimula ni Gian

"Tss. Tol? Really? Coming from you? Haha, wala na akong pake sa babaeng iyon, tss pero infairness ganda rin ng boses nun, haha, pero mga tol pwede bang doon niyo muna ako iuwi mamaya? Haha" i laughed but deep inside i'm confused.  Totoo rin nung kinantahan ako ni Yajin, her voice was very angelic. My mood was set into good but pinahalata kong hindi, i need to do that because i know the deal would be over and kahit masakit ay kakayanin ko, that deal will really expire in 6 months at tama ang dating ni Yesha, para makagawa ako ng paraan upang mahiwalayan siya kahit masakit, because a deal is a deal for us

Pinuntahan ko si Yesha sa park at mukhang malalim ang iniisip

"Hey" sabi ko na ikinagulat niya

"H-hi" nauutal na bati niya

"Is there something wrong?" Tanong ko sa kaniya dahil iba ang mukha niya na parang kinakabahan

"I'm sorry if i overheard your convo, but napagpustahan niyo pala si Yajin? I thought you really love her?" Tanong niya na ikinagulat ko

"I-i really love her" i said na dahan dahan para hindi siya mabigla

"Yeah i know, i can feel it, but you don't need to stay with me, okay na ako, you need to tell her lahat ng nangyari before it's too late" explain niya

"I can't, and i'm afraid" sabi ko, yeah i really do, i can't bear to lose her

"You should tell her, i know maiintindihan niya naman, magagalit siya, but kung talagang mahal ka niya papatawarin ka niya, look at what happened to us, i'm afraid to tell my situation to you, kaya ayun i lost you, my partner, you need to tell her before it's too late. I'm okay, you can leave already sapat na ang ilang araw na kasama kita. At saka pumayag kang sumama sa akin kahit na nandiyan naman si Yajin para sa'yo, you should've said no, and i'm sorry kasi pinilit kita using my words, go and tell her the whole story, and tell her that you really love her more than i, kung hindi ka pupunta agad ngayun din, i'll make a scene" sabi niya at nagwawarning na mata ang pinukol niya sa akin

"B-but..." Hinawakan niya ang kamay ko ng mahigpit

"You will be alright, okay lang ako" she said, now i am really sure of what i'm feeling, mahal ko silang dalawa ngunit sa dalawang iyon ay si Yajin talaga ang tinitibok ng puso ko at si Yesha.....si Yesha ay ang taong mahal ko bilang isa sa nakaraan at bilang isang kaibigan ko

Pumunta muna ako sa bar kung saan 'yung mga kaibigan ko, para makapag-isip ngunit nakalimutan kong kausapin si Yajin. Nag-uusap kami ng masinsinan nang biglang dumating si Yajin at Yesha, fudge!! I forgot

And there, she left me.....

Noong nakita ko siyang duguan ay naiyak na ako sa nangyari, i can't lose her

Pinunta namin siya sa hospital and when i heard all the explanation from the doctor, ay mas lalo akong naiiyak, until her pulse decreases and saw the doctors were already hopeless

Weeks have passed and i got a call from unknown

[You need to come here now, room 204, si Yesha ito] sabi ng nasa kabilang linya at binabaan na ako bago ako makasagot, ako naman ay agad siyang pinuntahan

Pagpasok ko doon ay mga malungkot na mukha ang nakikita ko, nakita ko rin namang nakaratay si Yesha sa hospital bed na hinang hina at nangangayat na. Sabi sa akin na matapos ang nangyari na pagsapak ni Yajin sa kaniya ay doon siya nakaramdam ng hilo dahil sa impact nito at pagkahatid sa kaniya ni Gallagher ay doon na siya nawalan ng malay.

Binigyan naman kami ng kapamilya niya ng privacy dahil alam na nila kung bakit ako pinapunta ni Yesha doon.

"Hey Von" sabi niya sa akin at ngumiti, hindi alintana kung ano ang nararamdaman niya

"Bakit ayaw mong lumaban?" I said habang pinipigilang umiyak

"My cancer is already worse than what you think, 3 cancers hit me, do you think kaya kong labanan yun?" She said and my tears started to fall. She was once special to me that's why i'm being emotional.

"I've learn what happened to Yajin? Ang gago mo rin kasi, binantaan na kita eh, hindi ka parin nakinig" sabi niya na mukhang nagtatampo, ngunit ako ay umiiyak lang dito sa gilid na hindi parin umiimik

"I know any minute now, i'll be gone, but i need to tell you something" she paused and i waited for her to continue

"Von, being with you was the happiest day of my life, but because of this freaking cancer i have, i've been selfish, i lost you. Since i lost you i became sick even more dahil sa kakaisip. 'Yung isang cancer naging dalawa, until naging tatlo, i'm thinking? What if i told him i have cancer, hindi kaya ito nadagdagan? Thoughts of that came flashing through my mind, kaya i went to you, and begged you to be with me just for a day sana but sinolo na tuloy kita, the day i heard about the pustahan thing, nainis ako, why? Kasi nanloko ka at alam ko rin na may kasalan ako at iyon ang ang hayaan kang magloko dahil sa kasakiman ko but right now, please love her more, value her, huwag mong gagawin 'yung mga ginawa ko, because God knows..." Her voice cracked and an indication that shems crying.

"God knows how much i regret the time i abandoned you. So please don't try to repeat the same mistake i did, if ever she'll wake up, give this to her" and she hand me a letter

"I love you Von, goodbye, for now" she said then her last tears fell as she closed her eyes and the loud sound of death was the only thing i've heard inside the room, and the tears kept falling from my eyes was like rain that never stop pouring,her families start to scream her sweet name in the air, nurses arrived but still no use because the girl that is lying over there will never show up again infront of me and her family, and she made me realize something, that i should value the people who are there for me before it's too late

'Goodbye, Yesha, i promise i will take care of her'

END

Nakaramdam naman ako ng hangin na malakas

'Thanks, Yesha'

Nasambit ko sa hangin, i need to go, i know she's already waiting for me. Pumunta ako sa sasakyan ko at pumasok at agad na pinaandar ito.

"Tol? Ang tagal mo naman" bungad sa akin ni Gallagher ng makarating ako.

"Is she still sleeping?" Tanong ko kay Gallagher

"Duuhh Von?" nakakunot na sabi niya na may tonong iritable

"I know" i chuckled at pumasok na sa loob kung saan siya nakahiga

"Hey, my Babs, Yajin, gumising kana jan, ipaparamdam ko pa sa'yo kung gaano kita kamahal ng sobra" sabi ko sa tulog na tulog na si Yajin

Yajin is still in coma, it's been 1 year since the accident happened, ang pagkakaalam ko ay patay na siya but the doctors said that bumalik daw 'yung pulse niya nung maialis nila Gian ako sa ICU. She's really naughty, magpapanggap siyang patay para maghiganti? Haha, but atleast she's still fighting for her life, while i'm here waiting for her to wake up, i know for sure that paggising nito bugbog ang abot ko

"Nandito pa ako naghihintay sa'yo, gumising kana diyan ha? Pangako na wala na akong gagawing katarantaduhan, sina Aldrin naman kasi eh" reklamo ko, narinig ko namang napasirit si Aldrin dahil sa sinabi ko.

"Ano'ng ako? Hoy remember sinakyan mo 'yun no, ulol" sabi nito sa akin na ikinatawa namin, if she's here i would hear her laugh with us

"Tol, labas muna kami, kakain lang kami ah" sabi nila at tinanguan sila, hays, umupo naman ako sa upuan malapit sa hinihigaan ni Yajin, at hinawakan ang kanyang kamay

"Babs, gumising kana, uy hindi pwedeng iiwan mo din ako, sasama talaga ako sa'yo" i said then i was shocked when her one finger moved, damn i smiled, after a year gumalaw ka nang babae ka, haha

There is one thing, i want to do right now na hindi ko pa nagagawa sa kanya, i went to get the guitar na binili ko kanina lang, i know how to play the guitar pero 'yung saakin dati binasag ko because of Yesha

I strum the first chord and nagtuloy tuloy na, this is the song she sang before that made my day

"Good morning beautiful, how was your night?"

(I used this song because, haha maganda kasi siya, hai to all country lovers out there😂😂)

I wish i could ask that right now, but you're still sleeping babs, but still you're beautiful

"Mine was wonderful, with you by my side, when i, open my eyes, i see your sweet face, it's a good morning beautiful day"

My night was not that wonderful, why? Kasi hindi tayo magkatabi, but when i open my eyes i see your pretty face but it's not happy, instead a pale face because of me

"I couldn't see the light, i didn't know day from night, i had no reason to care, since you came along, i can face the dawn, cause i know you'll be there"

Damn the time Yesha broke up with me, my colorful world became dark, i didn't know where to start, cause there's no light to guide me, i didn't know where to go, since she left, but when you....when you came along, i can really face everything, cause i know you will always be there for me so wake up now, my babs, my Yajin

"Good morning beautiful, how was your night? Mine was-"

"Wonderful, with you by my side"

Was it me or someone joined me in singing?

"When i opened my eyes i see your sweet fac-"

"I know i'm beautiful" sabi na eh may nagsasalita and when i turn around, i saw her smiling at me, then tears starts to stream on my face

"Y-Yajin?"
