I think I'll miss you forever. Like the stars miss the sun in the morning skies.

Liam's P.O.V

Oh God. This is not happening. Christalline, Ethan, Marcus.. in one house?!

Sh*t.

Tumakbo ako sa kinauupuan ni Marcus.

"Marcus!" sigaw ko.

"Hey. How did you know na andito kami?" tanong niya.

"Ahhh.. Uhmmm.. Your dad said it to me." sagot ko.

He smiled.

"So what are you doin here?" tanong niya.

"Wala lang.. Sino-sino kayong andito?" tanong ko.

Ghad!! Tell me na alam mong andito si Ethan!!!!

"It's only Christalline and me, then manang Lourdes." sagot niya.

How could I keep this?!!

"Bat mo natanong?" tanong niya.

"Ahh.. Wala lang. Sige.. I'll go na. Talk to Christalline ah." sabi ko.

"Ok." sagot niya.

Umalis na ako and I waved at him.

Marcus' P.O.V

Pagkatapos niyang umalis pinuntahan ko kagad si Christalline.

Pagkapasok ko sa room.. as usual, naka hoodie siya, shorts, lebron's shoes but she's wearing that sad emotion on her face.

"Hey." sabi ko.

She smiled.

"Let's talk about this ok? You need to get over this drama." sabi ko

"I'm not sure if I'm ready." sabi niya

I sighed.

"I really believe that he was the greatest thing that ever happened to me." sabi niya.

Inangat niya yung ulo niya at tumingin sa kisame. She's stopping her tears

"I don't want to cry.. I'm strong.." bulong niya

"You can cry.. tayo lang ang nandito." sabi ko.

Umiyak na siya.

"I miss him.. Not in some cheesy, 'let's hold hands and be together forever'. I just miss him.. plain and simple. I miss his presence in my life.I miss him always being there. I miss my best friend." sabi niya.

Yumuko siya at umiyak ng umiyak.

"Don't miss him. He should miss you. However, he's still the same person who broke your heart, remember.. the only reason that he can miss you is because he choose everyday not to be with you." Sabi ko

"The greatest pain in love is loving the person that you wouldn't ever have." Dagdag ko pa.

"Yeah right. I miss him.. but I'm trying not to care anymore.. and in the first place.. kahit na nung magkasama palang kami.. he choose everyday not to be with me. It's like he made me taste the pain and now he's continuing it. The only difference now is that it's not just a taste anymore." sabi niya.

"Forget him.. move on." sabi ko.

She laughed.. painfully.

"Moving on is simple. but it's what you leave behind that makes it so difficult. Sh*t lang eh! No matter how hard I do.. No matter how many times I try.. I always forget to forget him! This is a crap!" Sigaw niya.
