Taehyung's POV

Inayos ko muna ang damit ko habang nakatingin ako sa salamin bago tuluyang lumabas. Ngumiti ako sa repleksyon ko.

Wala kaming schedule ngayong araw kaya naman napag-isipan kong mamasyal mag-isa para na rin makapag-isip ako ng maayos.Nagpaalam na muna ako sa kanilang lahat bago umalis ng bahay.

I started my car and turned on the radio, I sighed when I heard the song that was playing.It was Passenger Seat by Stephen Speaks. And I'm glad that the song was already ending when I turned the radio on, because it brings so much memories.

🎶"And I've got all that I need
Right here in the passenger seat
Oh, and I can't keep my eyes on the road
Knowing that she's inches from me" 🎶

🎶"And I've got all that I need
Right here in the passenger seat
Oh, and I can't keep my eyes on the road
Knowing that she's inches from me" 🎶

🎶"And I've got all that I need
Right here in the passenger seat" 🎶

I sighed when the song ended. Napatingin ako sa bakanteng passenger seat.

Unlike the song, it's too bad I don't have all that I need right here in the passengers seat.I sighed again and shook my head feeling the pain in my chest.

Napangiti naman ako sa sumunod na kanta.
It was Brown Eyes by Destiny's Child.This is Kara's favorite song. And this is also the first song she ever sung for me. I smiled remembering that moment.

🎶"Remember the first day when I saw your face
Remember the first day when you smiled at me
You stepped to me and then you said to me
I was the woman you dreamed about
Remember the first day when you called my house
Remember the first day when you took me out
We had butterflies although we tried to hide it
And we both had a beautiful night"🎶

I remember it clearly like it only happened yesterday. Una ko siyang nakita dati sa Park, magkasama pa sila ni Yareli non. Sa araw-araw na nag pupunta ako sa park, araw-araw din siyang andun kasama si Yareli.

Pasulyap-sulyap lang ako sa kanya non, hanggang sa kinapalan ko ang mukha ko at lumapit sa kanya pero hindi ko siya nakausap kasi bigla nalang sumulpot si Kayden Hyung.

Natawa ako sa naalala ko. Kayden Hyung is always so overprotective over Kara. Siya pa nga inuna kong kinaibigan para mapalapit lang ako kay Kara.

That was 8 years ago.

🎶"The way we held each others hand
The way we talked the way we laughed
It felt so good to find true love
I knew right then and there you were the one" 🎶

I courted her for over 2 years. And it was all worth the wait.

🎶"I know that he loves me 'cause he told me so
I know that he loves me 'cause his feelings show
When he stares at me you see he cares for me
You see how he is so deep in love
I know that he loves me 'cause it's obvious
I know that he loves me 'cause it's me he trusts
And he's missing me if he's not kissing me
And when he looks at me his brown eyes tell his soul"🎶

She never told me to prove anything to her, because she said she feels it. She said she felt it in her heart that my feeling for her are genuine.

🎶"Remember the first day, the first day we kissed
Remember the first day we had an argument
We apologized and then we compromised
And we haven't argued since
Remember the first day we stopped playing games
Remember the first day you fell in love with me
It felt so good for you to say those words
'Cause I felt the same way too"🎶

Our first kiss happened on Jeju, Nung araw na sinagot niya ako.Siya pa nga ang naunang humalik sa akin.

🎶"The way we held each others hand
The way we talked the way we laughed
It felt so good to fall in love
And I knew right then and there you were the one" 🎶

We are eachothers first kiss, first love, first everything....

🎶"I know that he loves me 'cause he told me so
I know that he loves me 'cause his feelings show
When he stares at me you see he cares for me
You see how he is so deep in love
I know that he loves me 'cause it's obvious
I know that he loves me 'cause it's me he trusts
And he's missing me if he's not kissing me
And when he looks at me his brown eyes tell his soul"🎶

I am still so fucking in love with her. At mas lalong lumalalim yung nararamdaman ko sa kanya kahit na hindi kami magkasama.

🎶"I'm so happy so happy that you're in my life
And baby now that you're a part of me
You showed me
Showed me the true meaning of love
And I know he loves me" 🎶

I smiled. She showed me the true meaning of love. And I wish she knew that I still love her.

I'm still hoping, that we'll find a way back to eachother, pero kung hindi man ngayon ang panahon na para sa aming dalawa. Maybe in another life we'll be together.

🎶"I know that he loves me 'cause he told me so
I know that he loves me 'cause his feelings show
When he stares at me you see he cares for me
You see how he is so deep in love
I know that he loves me 'cause it's obvious
I know that he loves me 'cause it's me he trusts
And he's missing me if he's not kissing me
And when he looks at me his brown eyes tell his soul"🎶

Maybe when the time is right. We'll find a way back into eachothers arms.

🎶"He looks at me and his brown eyes tell his soul" 🎶

I sighed and turned the radio off. I never thought that a single song could bring back so much memories. I never really understood what the song meant before, but now I do.

Naiintindihan ko na ngayon, I know now that she really loves me more than she love herself. And I'm a fucking Idiot to let her go.

I stopped when the traffic light turned red, I leaned on the steering wheel and looked up. I squinted my eyes when I saw the Billboard.

"Is that Kara?" tanong ko sa sarili ko. I pulled the car over at the side at lumabas sa kotse ko para makita ng maayos ang billboard sa taas.

I stared at the billboard for quite a long time. And smiled. Napakaganda talaga niya.

"That's my girl" bulong ko sa sarili ko. Habang pinagmamasdan siya. I feel so proud seeing her up there,she might get famous because of this.

"Selene, Kara x Brax for Selene..."binasa ko yung nasa billboard. Tinitigan ko yung lalaking kasama niya sa billboard.

That's him. Iyan yung palaging kasama ni Kara sa tuwing nakikita ko siya. So Brax pala ang pangalan niya. The name feels familiar pero alam kong wala akong kakilalang Brax.

Pero paano naging model si Kara? I mean Kara never had interests in modelling so bakit ngayon nasa billboards na siya? And that guy with her? boyfriend niya ba talaga? O kaibigan lang? katrabaho? Ano?Why do I feel like something is off? Something doesn't feel like.

"Selene?" tanong ko sa sarili ko. I'm sure that looks really familiar. I've seen it somewhere before pero hindi ko matandaan kung saan ko nakita.

"Saan ko nga ba nakita iyon?"

I sighed and shook my head. Babalik na sana ako sa kotse ko para umalis ng makita ko si Eunwoo mula sa bintana ng kaharap kong restaurant.
Napangiti ako habang tinitignan siya, may hawak siyang baby at nilalaro niya ito.

"Tsk. Hindi man lang siya takot na makita ng media" bulong ko sa sarili ko.

Pumasok ako sa restaurant at dumiretso sa table nila. Hindi ako napansin ni Eunwoo na nasa likuran niya ako dahil busy siya sa pakikipaglaro sa batang hawak niya.

"Say Da-ddy..." rinig kong sabi ni Eunwoo but the baby just stared at him.

"c'mon say da-ddy"

"I'll say it for her..." Natatawang sabi ko. Agad namang humarap si Eunwoo sa akin na nanlaki pa ang mata nung makita ako.

"Oh? Hyung!" sabi niya at ngumiti.

"Looks like you're having fun" sabi ko.

"Ahhh.. I was just teaching her how to say daddy" Eunwoo said blushing, napakamot pa siya sa batok niya.

I chuckled, bumaling ako sa baby na hawak niya at hinaplos ang pisngi niya.

"Hi baby,ang laki laki mo na... I saw you when you were a new born, sa picture nga lang" sabi ko ng nakangiti, para bang ang gaan ng pakiramdam ko sa batang ito.

"She's turning 7 months, hyung" Eunwoo said like a proud father.

"Already? you're growing up really fast"

"and you're so pretty" sabi ko in a baby voice and she softly giggled.

"Of course hyung, mana sa mommy" sabi ni Eunwoo tsaka ngumiti sa baby.

"Really? Then her mom must be really pretty?" nakangiting tanong ko. Eunwoo just blushed.

"Do you want to hold her hyung?" tanong ni Eunwoo.

"Oh.... can I?" tanong ko. He nodded and handed me the baby.

I smiled habang tinititigan niya ako na para bang kinikilala niya kung sino ba ako.

"Hi!" I said to her,and she giggled. I stared at her eyes and feel like my heart skip a bit.

Her hazel brown eyes that are piercing into mine, looks very hypnotizing. It was the kind of eyes that makes you want to stare all day long. Biglang bumilis ang tibok ng puso ko, I remember someone with that kind of eyes.

I was snapped out of my trance nang hawakan niya ang magkabilang pisngi ko, ngumiti naman ako.

"Da... da"

Nagkatinginan kaming dalawa ni Eunwoo.Dahil hindi kami makapaniwala sa sinabi niya.

"Da... da" ulit niya na nakatingin parin sa akin. My heart skipped a beat, Bakit pakiramdam ko napakasaya ko? I can't explain the joy I'm feeling right now. Pakiramdan ko tuloy ako ang tatay ng batang ito.

But I know that's impossible.

"H-Hyung... did.. d-did you hear that? She called you Dada" sabi ni Eunwoo na hindi parin makapaniwala.

"Celine ah,... why didn't you call me dada?" tanong ni Eunwoo sa kanya ng nakalabi.

"I've been teaching you that for so long now.... tapos si Taehyung hyung na ngayon mo lang nakita sinabihan mo ng Dada" sabi ni Eunwoo sa kanya.

"W-what did you call her? What's....her name?" tanong ko.

"Your shirt says it all hyung.." natatawang sabi niya. Napatingin ako sa damit ko.

CÉLINE

Yung ang nakalagay sa damit ko.Tinignan ko ang batang hawak-hawak ko at napalunok. What is this I'm feeling?I just can't explain.

"R-really?That's... That's a great name" sabi ko . Tumango naman si Eunwoo habang nakangiti.

"Oh! wait hyung.. I'll take a picture since your shirt has her name... and you two could pass as father and daughter... " natatawang sabi ni Eunwoo at inilabas ang cellphone niya. I smiled while holding the baby.

Kinuha na siya ni Eunwoo at nginitian ko naman yung baby. Staring at her feels like I know her for some reason.

" Hyung, do you want to eat with us? "tanong ni Eunwoo.

Umiling ako at ngumiti." Hindi na baka makaistorbo pa ako, aalis na rin ako"sabi ko.

"Ah sayang ipapakilala pa sana kita sa mommy ni Celine...." sabi niya.

"Oh? speaking of her... bakit antagal niya?" tanong ni Eunwoo sa sarili niya at nagpalinga-linga.

"Baka nakita niya kong kasama ka nahiya na... sige aalis na ako" sabi ko at muling tinignan yung baby.

"Ipakilala mo nalang ako next time"sabi ko. Bumaling ako sa baby and handed her pocket money.

" I'll see you next time, baby Celine"sabi ko at hinalikan ang magkabilang pisngi niya.She giggled again and I smiled while walking away.

"Da... da" napatingin ulit ako sa kanya at ngumiti. I waved goodbye one last time and went out of the restaurant. Umangat ang tingin ko sa billboard at tumingin sa mukha ni Kara.

Today is so weird.

//

Nandito na ako ngayon sa bahay at nakatayo sa may bintana habang tinatanaw ang buwan. Hindi parin maalis sa isip ko si baby Celine.

"Da... da"

Napangiti ako at umiling, that little girl is really a charmer.

Her little eyes really reminds me of Kara.O baka naghahallucinate lang ako dahil nakita ko yung billboard ad ni Kara sa labas ng restaurant, at siya ang iniisip ko.

Napabuntong-hininga ako.

"Celine...." bulong ko sa sarili ko.

"That's really your favorite shirt, huh?" natatawang sabi ni Kara.

"Celine...." basa niya sa nakalagay sa damit ko.

"Hmmm.... it's comfortable" sabi ko.

"That is why I bought you another one" she giggled.

"I know it's the brand name but... is your ex's name Celine?" she asked but she was smiling.

Hinapit ko ang beywang niya palapit sa akin, iniyakap naman niya ang mga kamay niya sa leeg ko.

"Hmmm.. wala pa naman akong ex because you are my first, and you know that" I chuckled. She rolled her eyes playfully at me.

We both stared at eachother smiling. I'm staring at the girl that will bear my child one day. She's the only one I want to be the mother of my future children.

I pecked her nose, then her lips.

"Celine's not my ex's name.... but the name of our future daughter" I said.

"Hmm...well it sounds like Selene"she shrugged. She was always so fond of the moon. That's why she loves the goddess of moon which is, Selene.

"So I guess.... we'll probably name our future daughter Celine" she giggled and I smiled before closing the gap between our lips.

I smiled at the memory. It's just funny how Kara models for the brand Selene and then I met a little girl named Celine.

What a coincidence.

Napabuntong hininga ako at napaisip. Siguro kung hindi kami naghiwalay matutupad pa namin yung plano naming iyon. Yung planong bubuo kami ng pamilya.

But I guess hindi na iyon mangyayari ngayon.

Siguro yung mga planong binuo  naming dalawa para sa isa't-isa,ay matutupad na sa iba.
