Ake calling..

Chloe: Hello? Oh? Nakauwi ka na?

Ake: yeah..

Chloe: hmm.. Pahinga ka na..

Ake: ayaw mo na akong makausap?

Chloe: ha? Hindi naman.. Kasi marami tayong ginawa kanina, baka pagod ka. Binilin ko lang na tawagan mo ako kapag nakauwi ka na para malaman kong safe kang nakauwi..

Ake: hmmm.. Chloe?

Chloe: oh?

Ake: are you happy right now?

Chloe: naman Ake! Ako pa ba! Kasama ko sina mama at papa, idagdag pang nahanap ko na ang Boobear ni Tammy, tapos nakikita pa kitang madalas na nakangiti.. Sinong hindi magiging masaya doon?

Ake: masaya kang nakikita mo akong nakangiti?

Chloe: oo naman.. Ake, you're a part of my life now.. Kung tutuusin ay pati ata puso ko, may malaking puwang ka na..

Ake: what? What do you mean?

Chloe: ikaw ang mahal ng puso na ito Ake.. Ang kaibahan nga lang, nasa sa akin na, at wala sa babaeng mahal mo.. Sorry..

Ake: wait.. are you saying you love me?!

Chloe: sira! Itong puso! Yung puso lang!

Ake: no.. Giving your heart--

Chloe: not my heart Ake.. Not mine.. Ang kulit! Paulit ulit ka!

Ake: (buntong hininga) Chloe.. Hindi mo kailangang mag-sorry.. Alam kong may dahilan kung bakit ibinigay sa iyo ni Amy ang puso niya.

Chloe: meron nga, pero nawala naman siya..

Ake: yeah.. That's the sad part.. I miss her Chloe.. I miss everything about her..

Chloe: of course you do.. And you'll always will.. Minahal mo talaga siya ng sobra ano?

Ake: I am a hard person to love Chloe, but when I love, I love really hard..

Chloe: heh.. Yabang!

Ake: hindi kayabangan iyon. I'm just stating a fact.

Chloe: eh di ikaw na!

Ake: ikaw? Paano ka magmahal?

Chloe: hmmm.. Paano ba? Ewan eh.. When I love, ---- I'll never let go.. I'll stay.. Always.. Even forever don't exist, I want to prove it..

Ake: but you'll stay beside me right? Always?

Chloe: Endlessly Ake.. Endlessly..

Ake: (speechless)

Chloe: hey?

Ake: hmm?

Chloe: let's sleep already.. (Yawning)

Ake: okay..

Chloe: good night Ake.. Sleep tight..

Ake: you too..

Chloe: okay.. Hang up already..

Ake: Chloe?

Chloe: yeah?

Ake: Endlessly.. (he hung up)

Nakangiting natulog ang dalawa ng gabing iyon.
