++ I will leave my heart at the door
I won't say a word
They've all been said before you know ++

Pagkatapos ng huling bonding time natin,
 nung nakaraan, akalain mong magkikita uli tayo. Ay mali, Tayong apat. 
Magsasampung taon na pala ang ating
 pag-sasama. Di ko inakalang magiisang 
dekada na pala din tong pilit kong itinatago kong damdamin. 

Bigla may notification sa phone, Nagchat ka, Magrereply na sana ako. Bigla ka nalang nakipag video call, like we used too, kapag namimiss mo ako. Napakaclingy mo,
 One of the things why I fell for you. 
Nakangiti ka, you called me names na 
ikaw lang nakakaimbento. 
My clingy and sweet Baby Rin. 

"Dara-Unnie, eodie? San ka?"

"Kakatapos lang namin nagmeeting for VideoStar. Wae?" 

"Can you come here sa hotel, para sabay tayo to get the cake? Ikaw naman nagpacustomized nun eh, Para one way na tayo, Baka magtampo pa si Bom na wala tayong cake mamaya."

"Ah, ciel, Si Bumblebee dala ko today kasi wala yung manager ko, tapos ang liit dun baka masikipa- -"

"Aish, Unnie, I'll wait for your text kung nakadating ka sa baba. Come here, pali pali pali!! See you!"

++++++

++So why don't we just play pretend
Like we're not scared of what's coming next
Or scared of having nothing left++

As soon as I parked at the entrance of the hotel, nagtext ako na sayo. Habang nagmamake up ka pa ata, I saw a kid hugging a little teddy bunny. Then remember how you Introduced Tam Tam to me. 
*flashback* 

Naglalaro ako sa phone ko, then bigla ka nalang may lumapag sakin na parang bunny with two big buttons sa mata niya, Naalala ko mahilig ka palang gumawa ng mga ganon, kasi pampalipas oras mo yun kasi ayaw mo may null moments ka, you really treasure time. Another thing I also admired sayo. 

"Chaerinah, ano to?" - Ako
"Alagaan mo yan, you'll be the foster mother to my baby. Alagaan mo yan kapag aalis ako. And para di mo ako mamimiss, Tam Tam that is new mom, Ssantokki" - CL
"Chaerinah!!! Ano yan, bat si Dara lang meron?? Kukunin ko yan aba!!" - Bom
"yaaaaa!! Unnie!!! Anak namin yan ni Dara!!! Wag mong sirain!!!" 

Bat ganon chae? Kung sila Bommie at Minzy pa iyon okay lang naman normal lang siguro. Or sadyang iba ka lang talaga sa kanila. 
I was caught off guard, kumakatok ka na pala and there you go again, smiling, The smile that is so precious and contagious too. 

I unlocked the car and nagbesohan to formally greet each other, I want to say I missed you, but I know not in the way that I wanted to. 'cause i know you are now happy and contented. 

"Ang liit ng car ko, naka fur jacket ka parin talaga. Ang sikip tuloy, lagay mo nalang muna sa likod may hanger dyan." pagtataray ko sayo 

"Ne, ahjumma tokki, 1point!! Tara na nga. Baka malate pa tayo." nakangiti ka nanaman ewan, napakamarupok ko sayo.

++Look, don't get me wrong
I know there is no tomorrow
All I ask is ++

While driving, naalala ko paguusap namin ni Bom kagabi alam ko, kahit pareho kaming krung krung, Napakaseryoso din yun magaadvice. 

"Baka kasi inaassume mo lang ang lahat sis, ganon lang talaga siya sa mga taong malapit sa kanya." 
"Kilala kita magmahal Dara, parang awa mo na. Guard your heart." 

I will guard my heart by making it happy thru seeing her smile and laugh even she'll not end up with me.
Bumalik lang ako sa realidad nung pinoke mo pisngi ko, andito ka pala sa tabi ko. 

"Oh, bakit. I'm driving di ako makatingin sa'yo" Sagot ko, simula nung sumakay ka pala di kita tiningnan. Nasanay ka na kasi na I'll have a glimpse of you when we talk. Pero how can I look straight eh pagkatao ko ginulo mo. 

"Ang sungit mo sakin today, Unnie. May nangyari ba, nagaway ba kayo ng jowa mo?" 

"Excuse me, wala akong jowa, bat ba ang atat niyo? I'm happy to be single" singhal ko.

"Happy talaga Dara? O nagpapakamartyr ka nanaman?" Then the voice of Park Bom is in my head. 

"Hello, earth to Dara!!! CL-roo is talking ears, mind and soul to CL please. So ganito hahanapan nalang kita ng jo-" ani niya

"Tsundere, andito na tayo sa cakeshop. Nagkukulit na si bom, san nanaman ba daw tayo."  palusot ko sabay kuha ng phone sabay labas. I heard her sigh,bahala sya. Ayoko ng mga ganoong topic, isa lang ang ginusto ko ng todo pero di pa siya mapapasakin. Napakamanhid mo pero minamahal pa din kita.

++If this is my last night with you
Hold me like I'm more than just a friend
Give me a memory I can use
Take me by the hand while we do what lovers do++

You have this habit na everytime after we perform na magkatabi tayo or hahanapin mo ako tapos hahawakan mo kamay ko, kasi you know how i am pressured everytime that we perform kasi baka mapagsabihan nanaman tayo ni sunbaenim, natatakot akong magkamali, pero yung higpit or tingin lang na binibigay mo sakin parang nawawala lahat ng anxieties ko at takot sa lahat dahil you know me at my worst and you give me assurance that I can do my best. As long as we stay together. That was then, iba na ngayon we have our own priorities, we have our own lives. Own love stories just like what i'm having now.
