THIRD PERSON'S

"Good morning, Reign!" hyper na bati ni Pauline kay Reign at kinukuskos pa ang mata nito.

"Hi... Ate" sabi nito between her yawn. Anong oras na kase itong nakatulog. It's been a day simula nang kinausap ni Reign si Sejun. And yeah, Sejun has been avoiding her too. But deep inside of his heart, he felt guilty. Sobrang konsensya ang nararamdaman niya sa sinabi ng babae sa kanya.

"We better leave now. I'm sure mata-traffic tayo dito pag nagtitigan pa tayo" natatawang sabi ni Stell sa kanila. Mabilis na lumapit si Josh kay Reign at inakbayan ito.

"C'mon, tabi tayo" sabi ni Josh at palihim na tumingin kay Sejun. He found him staring at them, kung nakakamatay lang ang tingin marahil ay kanina pa ito nakabulagta. Naka-yukom din ang palad nito. Josh victoriously smiled when saw he saw Sejun's reaction.

Magkatabi si Pauline at Stell sa driver at passenger's seat. Habang nasa second row si Josh at Reign. Third row is owned by Sejun and Justin. While Ken is on the last row sleeping comfortably.

"Are you hungry?" Tanong ni Josh sa dalaga. She smiled and shook her head.

"Inaantok ka pa 'no?" Natatawang tanong muli ni Josh. She chuckled and nodded. Josh tapped his shoulder giving her a signal to lean on his shoulders.

Dahil nga sa antok na rin ang dalaga ay isinandal nito ang kanyang ulo sa balikat ni Josh and started to close her eyes.

The Man on their back was intensely staring at them.

"Someone's jealous" parinig ni Justin kay Sejun. He just spare a look at him pero babalik din sa dalawa ang tingin nito.

"Pride's not the answer to everything. If you love someone, learn to approach them first. Hindi porket alam mong mahal ka nung tao, you'll wait for her to approach you first. Remember that she's a girl tho. Umamin ka na bago mahuli ang lahat" he was suppose to be angry pero may part sa kanya na sinasabing tama ang sinabi sinabi ni Jah.

Ilang oras ng byahe, sa wakas ay narating na nila ang resort na target nilang puntahan. They rented a deluxe room and they'll all sleep together parang nung nasa apartment sila ni Sejun.

"Guys, bibili lang kami ni Reign ng pwedeng makain" sabi ni Josh habang hila hila si Reign. Napatigil sa pag-aayos ng higaan si Sejun nang marinig niya ito.

"Ha? May makakain naman tayo ah?" Tanong ni Pauline sa dalawa.

"Hmm, pandagdag sa snacks? Hehehe, by the way, alis na kami" aalma pa sana si Reign pero nahila siya agad ni Josh.

"Uhm, gala lang kami ni Ken" paalam naman ni Jah sa kanila atsaka lumabas ng room nilang magkakaibigan.

Nabalot ng katahimikan si Pauline at Sejun. Pinagpatuloy lang ni Sejun ang pag-aayos ng higaan habang nakangiting tinitignan ni Pauline ang pinsan.

"You seemed distracted, kanina pa" pang-aasar nito sa pinsan niya

"Wala lang 'to" palusot ni Sejun. Kahit ang totoo ay sobra talaga siyang distracted simula kanina.

"Kilala kita, JP. Simula pa lang bata tayo kabisado ko na kung anong kinagagalit mo" napabuntong hininga na lamang ang binata. Sa tinagal na pinagsamahan niya kasama si Pauline ay siguradong kilalang kilala na siya nito.

"It it about Reign?" Nakangising tanong ni Pauline sa kanya. For the second time, hindi na naman ito nakasagot.

"Tama ako" napailing si Pauline at pinaupo ang pinsan nito.

"Tell me what you feel. Nobody will know" sabi nito. Bumuntong hininga muli si Sejun at saka nagdesisyong magsalita.

"Nahihirapan na ako, Pau. Naguguluhan ako. Hindi ko alam kung anong nangyayare sakin" nagpatuloy lang sa pakikinig sa kanyang pinsan.

"Inaamin kong gustong gusto ko kapag kinukulit ako ni Reign. I just felt guilty kase alam kong nasaktan ko siya. Alam kong iniiwasan niya ako pero natatakot akong tuluyan siyang malayo sakin. I don't want to be alone again. Pero alam mo yun, there's someone inside me na nagsasabing hindi ko deserve si Reign. She was too good to be mine. Hindi ko maiwasang mag-overthink na what if iwan niya ulit ako? What if I started to gave her my trust pero masira lang ulit yun? Ayokong magtiwala pero natatakot akong mawala siya sakin" she patted his shoulder bago magsalita.

"Overthinking is normal to a person, Sejun. Pero it doesn't mean na mahina ka na or what. It's true na kahit sarili mo ay kalaban mo that's why nahihirapan kang magtiwala kay Reign"

"Pero hindi mo man lang ba naisip kung bakit nagagawa ka paring mahalin ni Reign kahit na nasasaktan mo siya? Yung tanong na bakit she was still by your side kahit na nahihirapan na siya? Do you think Reign will sacrifice herself for you para lang iwan ka niya ulit? I don't think so"

"You already heard why she chose to let you go before. I know, I know na nahihirapan kang magtiwala pero I'll give you some time. Believe me JP, Reign loves you more than you know. She loves you so much na kahit sarili niyang kasiyahan kaya niyang itaya para maging masaya ka. Trust her" well obviously, Pauline left Sejun speechless.

Does he really still love her?

Maybe he did, he was just forcing himself not to love her pero ang totoo ay hindi maitatago. He loves her too.

Maybe it is the right time to trust her and let him be the one to sacrifice this time.
