Greg's PoV

"Thinking about something?" Tanong ko coz after we arrived here natahimik siya bigla

"Ha? Ahh ano wala hehe"

"Akala ko ba gusto mo dito?"

"Oo nga"

"Ehh bakit lukot yang mukha mo?"

"Ha? Hindi ah!" She said faking a smile

"You sure?" Tanong ko

"Yup. Don't mind me"

"So... where exactly do you wanna go with me?"

"Huh?"

"Sabi mo. You wanna be with me earlier?"

"Ahh..."

"Any place you wanna go next?"

"Ano... wala ako maisip... ikaw ba san mo gusto pumunta?"

"Wala naman ako balak ngayong araw kundi ihatid isundo ka sana dun sa kdrama fair"

"Uwi na lang tayo, Greg"

Nagtaka naman ako sa sinabi niya

"What? Why?"

"I... I suddenly feel tired"

Kelly's PoV

Pagkatapos namin dun sa restaurant, as I told him, hinatid na niya ako pauwi ng bahay.

"Take a rest okay?"

"Okay" I said smiling "thank you Greg" sambit ko before I went inside the house. Sabi niya di na siya papasok para makapagpahinga ako.

"Oh akala ko maghapon kayo wala ni Greg?"

"Nagpahatid na ko pauwi ma..."

"May problema?" Sambit ni mama na nagpabuntong hininga na lang saken

"So meron nga?"

"I don't know ma... Greg's a great person. Pero seeing and knowing all his efforts? Pati yung mga pagkakataong may ginagawa siya para saken pero di ko nakikita? Am I... am I really that worth it ma? Feeling ko kasi sobra sobra si Greg para saken... I feel like, I feel like he's not gonna get what he expects from me..."

"So sa tingin mo... hindi kayo bagay ni Greg? That he's not the one for you?"

It took me minutes to answer her with a sigh... kasi hindi ko din alam

"Let me ask you one question" sambit ni mama sitting down beside me

"Ano yun ma?"

"Have you listened to what this says?" Sambit niya pointing her fingers to my heart

"What do you mean?"

"You know when people tell you to use both when falling in love? The brain and the heart"

"Yeah?" Alanganing pagsang-ayon ko

"Coz sometimes, your head supplies you with all things and scenarios that isn't even happening or wouldn't even happen, making you think you're doing wrong"

Nakatingin lang ako kay mama habang inaabsorb ko mga sinasabi niya

"But then your heart wants one thing. Your heart still wants to go that way even with all the possibilities. Your heart decides all at once kung ano ang gusto nito, so if you listen... you'll know one thing certain. You'll know that one choice your heart desires... you'll know the place where you'll feel great happiness"
