[ choi ysha ]

agad akong hinila ni wonwoo papuntang emergency exit at umakyat. hinayaan ko lang siyang hilahin ako hanggang sa makarating na kami ng third floor.

"wonwoo, teka lang-" pigil ko sa kaniya at kumalas sa pagkakahawak niya. tumigil naman siya sa paglalakad at hinarap ako.

"ysha," he stepped inches closer and pulled me into a hug. 'yung yakap na sobrang higpit.

"i missed you.." i blinked and gulped. i wanted to break the hug pero in the end hinayaan ko na lang siya. iniisip ko rin na baka sobrang miss nya lang si ysha and i have no choice. hindi nagtagal and he broke the hug and looked at me, examining my face.

"it's a shame, you can't remember me." nakatitig lang ako sa kaniya nang hindi nagsasalita. i heard him sigh and slowly nodded.

"and of course, you can't remember who i am, right?" then our eyes met. seconds passed pero hindi pa rin ako nasagot. i am contemplating if i should tell him or not. but kung sasabihin ko naman sa kaniya, there's a high possibility na hindi siya maniwala.

he have a deep breath and looks down.

"right, you don't-" i didn't let him finish his words and cutted him off.

"i know you," agad niyang ini-angat ang tingin sa akin at napansin ko na bigla siyang nabuhayan.

"you're m-my boyfriend.." it's just so weird na sabihing my boyfriend when infact hindi naman talaga.

wonwoo sighed in relief as he brushed his hair and looked at me.

"but why? why are you avoiding me?"

"i.. uh.. i.." i couldn't answer him. what? should i say, i was avoiding him kasi hindi ko siya makaharap dahil hindi ako ang girlfriend niya? dahil isa lang akong ligaw na kaluluwang pumasok sa katawan ng babaeng mahal niya?

"i'm sorry.." i apologized as i looked down my feet. hindi ko talaga alam ang isasagot ko.

"no, baby. look at me," naramdaman ko namang hinawakan niya 'yung pisngi ko. he caressed it, kaya kusa akong napaangat nang tingin sa kaniya.

baby..

"you don't have to apologize. you know, i should be the one doing that." i couldn't help but to stare at him. he looks so sad.. and his eyes, it's filled with sorrow. why?

"i'm sorry, ysha. it was my fault. hindi sana mangyayari lahat ng ito sa'yo kung hindi dahil sa akin," agad na kumunot ang noo ko sa sinabi niya. his fault?

"i'm so sorry, baby.. i should've been there with you. i should've stopped you from doing that. i should have.." i noticed his eyes become watery and a lone tear suddenly rolled down his cheeks. he's crying.. i unconsciously moved my hand on his face and wiped his tear. he, then held my hand and kissed it. nakatingin lang ako sa kaniya at hinayaan siya.

"ysha, i love you so much.. please, forgive me.." he put my hand down at siya naman ang pumalit. his hand was now cupping my cheeks, caressing it and staring at me deeply. i slowly nodded my head as i was mesmerized by his pair of eyes. he then moved his stare from my eyes to my lips. binalik niya naman agad ang tingin sa akin and i noticed that his face went closer. what is he doing? i saw how he closed his eyes, closing the gap between us as his lips lands on mine.

he's kissing me?! what the heck!

i want to stop him and push him but my body seems to not cooperating with me. damn, what's wrong with this body? this isn't right!-
