Sa traffic light. May tatlong option. Ang pula ay para huminto. Stop. Loving someone so much doesn't always mean they're the right one for us. There are times when you would feel the pain. Kung ayaw mong masaktan ka ng bongga, it's better to stop. Ang berde ay go. I mean is letting go. It's doesn't mean giving up but rather accepting that there are things that cannot be. Parang sa ex mo, akala mo siya na pero hindi pala. Nakipagbreak siya. Alangan naman maging desperada ka kaya mas mabuting tanggapin mo nalang at ipagpatuloy mo nalang ang buhay. Ang dilaw naman para sa slow down and ready to stop. Pwede ko rin masabi na it will take action. We were afraid to get hurt, we were scared to face what could happen. We were scared to love and fall again. Another term for yellow lights is caution. Kaya bago ka mahulog ng sobra, you better know what consequences and trial na dadating sa love life mo. Panay tipa ko sa steering wheel habang naka-stuck sa traffic. My goodness! Bakit ngayon pa ako naabutan ng traffic kung kailan uwing-uwi na ako?! Nakakainis, ha. Kung alam na ganito ang mangyayari, paniguradong magse-stay nalang ako sa hotel room kung saan ako nakacheck in! Tsk. I turn on the stereo. Natigilan ako nang marinig ko ang kanta na pinapatugtog ngayon. She had a face straight out a magazine God only knows but you'll never leave her Her balaciava is starting to chafe When she gets his gun, he's begging, 'Babe stay, stay' I'll give you one more time We'll give you one more fight Said one more line Will I know you? Parang may nakabara na kung ano sa aking lalamunan habang pinapakinggan ko ang bawat linya ng kanta. Maraming alaala ang nanumbalik. Parang kahapon lang nangyari ang mga iyon pero ang totoo ay limang taon na nakalipas. Sariwa pa sa aking isipan ang kaniyang hitsura. Ang baritono niyang boses. Ang mabango niyang amoy. Particularly his captivating two hazel brown eyes. Kamusta na kaya siya? Ano na kaya ang ginagawa niya pagkatapos ng gabing iyon? I smirked. "Come on, Elene. Paniguradong hindi ka na niya matatandaan pa." Sabi ko sa aking sarili. Oo nga, sino nga ba ako para sa kaniya? I am a totally stranger for him. Kilala ko siya pero hindi niya ako kilala. I'm just a girl who dragged him to escape the reality that night. We're both frustrated in different reasons.
