The song came to an end more than a minute ago but we stayed unmoving, unspeaking. Me, with my jumbled thoughts and him, playing with my hand ang fingers with his lips.
"Troy.."
"Shhh..."
"You need to let me go."
"No." Mas hinigpitan pa niya ang pagkakayakap. Natawa ako, para siyang batang aagawan ng kendi.
"Why?"
"I don't know. I suddenly have this feeling na ito na ang huling beses na mayakap kita sa paraang gusto ko. I can't let you go yet."
Napalunok ako. Matalas talaga ang pakiramdam ng unggoy na ito.
"Don't be silly."
"Being silly has nothing to do with this. Just let me be."
"Hoy, super tsansing na tawag dyan. Kanina ka pa ha."
"Bakit ba, am I not allowed to do this?" Niyuko niya ako.
"Pasaway ka talaga."
"Matagal na. Kaya dito ka lang, huwag ka nang magreklamo."
