NYIF 30: New Beggining

I always tell myself that there will be the day that I will see myself smiling again. Laughing and feeling genuinely happy for all the things that I have done.

"Let's heal ourselves together. Will you do that with me,  Coralia? "

If there must be the best thing I ever did after those rainy days of my life,  it would be agreeing to Haleth.

We healed together.

See ourselves together.

Heal those broken parts together.

And seeing each other.

Maybe,  it was never too late to be happy.  Come on,  I'm just seventeen when I experienced the most painful part of my life.

But he saw it.  He's been there with me.  He helped me grow.  He understands me.  He adjusted for me.  He makes me happy everytime I felt so down.  He's been there.

He helped me a lot.

He's had been a great part of my journey. 

He loves me first before I could even love myself.

He loves me after all the broken pieces that I tried to picked up and getting hurt at the process.

He was the one who healed fast.

I was at the slower pace.  Maybe because I really doesn't want to move on?  Because I know I'll be stuck with Zale forever?  Or maybe because I know,  Zale has a bigger place on my heart?

"I love you. " Haleth said after all the silence between us. We are now in Second year College.  I took up Bachelor in Science Major in Accountancy while He's taking Political Science.

Yes.  This Vocalist will be a future Lawyer someday.

My lips parted.  After two and a half years of healing ourselves,  he said those three big words.

He looks so tensed. Kahit na tangi ang city lights at liwanag ng buwan at poste lamang ang aming ilaw,  kitang-kita ko ang pag kakagambala niya.

"I-I know... it started in our first year.  At first it was just a crush, but when Michael starting to court you,  I feel so mad and jealous at the same time.  You asked me,  why I punched him after his party right?  It was because his screwing other girl while courting you.  I don't want anyone else hurt you,  after all the pain you've endured for the past years. " he said sincerly.

May kung anong humaplos sa puso ko sa sinabi niya. 

How can this hunk,  fall in love with me?  I was a mess.  Total mess.

Lalo na noong first year college. 

After our grade 11, hindi na namin nakita si Zale.  He flew to Canada together with his family.  I was hurt totally hurt.  Iyong tipong nagalit na ako sa kanya kasi nalaman ko na nakikipagkontact siya kay Carrie pero sa akin wala.

But then again,  who am I in his life?

And then,  college came.
