Hadeon's P.O.V

"Let me see the Hadeon who is willing to change because of me. And make me forget all the bad things you did that happened in the past .. including the memories that me and Chase had."

Hindi ko maitagong mapangiti sa sinabi niya. Lalo na sa huli niyang sinabi.

Sa wakas, unti unti na ring nahuhulog ang loob niya sa akin. And I'll treasure every moment we spend once he fully fall for me. I'm gonna make sure that he wouldn't regret his decision of loving me back.

"I will."

'Yan ang tanging naging sagot ko sa kaniya. Pero ang mas ikinagulat ko ay ang pag-iwas ng mukha niya sa akin, nagtaka ako kaya tinitigan ko siya at ganun na lang din ang pagkabigla ko nang makita ko ang pamumula niya.

"What's wrong?" tanong ko na humawak sa mukha niya para tumingin sa akin.

"N-naninibago lang ako .. sa h-halik mo."

I smiled playfully. "Masasanay ka rin. Better practice breathing now when I kiss you. I may take your breath away."

I knew, he may be uncomfortable when I'm around him lalo na ngayon na binigyan na niya ako ng chance para ipakita na seryoso ako sa kaniya. But I will not make him feel awkward kapag nagkakaroon kami ng ganitong eksena ulit.

Ngayong, nagkakaroon na ako ng magandang response sa kaniya, ngayon pa ba ako titigil?

The only thing I could do right now will make him focus the present, not his past. And I'll try to stop bringing up Chase again.

I want to completely vanish their memories from him

.. by giving him new memories with me.

Kieran's P.O.V

Not everyone deserves a second chance.

Some deeds are just unforgivable, and no one should feel obligated to forgive people who do them wrong.

Whether or not you choose to forgive or cut them from your life, it is a completely different decision from giving them a second chance.

And on Hadeon's part, I gave him a chance for him just because I want him to show me who he really is. I want to see the real Hadeon's love that I will possibly accept in the end. I want him to prove me that giving him a chance and forgiving him is the thing I won't ever regret later on. Hoping that whatever happened in the past doesn't happen again.

From what I can see, the Hadeon that I'm with now is the Hadeon who is changed by him being a selfish narcissistic person.

It feels like he had this called NPD or Narcissistic personality disorder.

'Narcissistic personality disorder involves a pattern of self-centered, arrogant thinking and behavior, a lack of empathy and consideration for other people, and an excessive need for admiration. Others often describe people with NPD as cocky, manipulative, selfish, patronizing, and demanding.'

'Another reason why people are selfish is that they have a fear of losing control. If someone has many needs and goals, then they overvalue their resources because they think that these resources are going to help them reach their goals.'

Hadeon may have a toxic personality but I am hoping he would try to changed himself for me.

...

It's been two weeks. Yes. A whole damn two weeks pagkatapos ng pangyayaring yun. Nung una, hindi nagiging komportable ang mga tagpo para sa akin sa tuwing sinusubukan niya akong i-approach.
