A/N:

One million years later...

And here I am again. Take note, inuna kong isulat 'tong author's note before ang final chapter ng Two Bad People. Hahahahaha. Ehem. Anyways, thank you so much for reaching the last part of the story. Took me a while to write the end. Tinamaan talaga ako ng katamaran nang matagal na matagal na panahon. Two years na ba or more than a year pa?

My lover motivated me a lot to write, for more than a year now, but I was feeling weird about writing some scenes while being in a relationship. I was thinking I might end up incorporating my own life into the story(even tho he assured me it will be alright) so I paused writing for a while, for the privacy hehe. I know, I know I'm an amateur and it shows. Kaya heto, inabot nang pagkatagal-tagal ang ending. I'm sorry (｡ﾉω＼｡).

Tbh, this wasn't supposed to be a boy's love story. Ang plano ko kasi talaga sa series, starting from One Bad Move, ay the usual boy x girl love story but somehow it didn't click with these two characters. I just didn't know why I couldn't see Giyo and Dox with a woman or maybe I just couldn't create a perfect female lead for them both cause I think they suited each other really well. (I'm definitely a yaoi fan, klaro naman) And hey, the story turned out to be quite a steamy disaster. I mean who does things to a certain extent to be with someone? Heck that's unhealthy obsession right there—wait, is there a healthy obsession? Yes, for example, kapag namomotivate ka ng mga favorite idol groups mo to do better in school. Or is it obsession or love? Yiee~

Anyways, ang daming dark parts ng story na ito. Well, I really wrote them because of the title "Two Bad People". I don't know if may novel na kapareha ng title but I really liked it because for me, it's usually like that in a relationship, a toxic or a healthy one. You show your good sides and your bad sides and it's a choice to accept that or not but people usually label themselves as "bad people", especially those who accepted who they've become and those who are willing to change for the better.

Obsession isn't good, I can attest to that. It slowly kills you inside, or the goodness in you. That's why it's so different from love. But, we confuse obsession with love most of the time. Well, in this case, sa story, I tried fusing them together, if that's even possible, like how Dox wanted to be seen and noticed by Giyo, like how he's willing to become a killing machine because he loves him so much.

Alright, believe me, it's a choice if itataas mo ang sarili mo para sa taong mahal mo, or if ibababa mo ang sarili mo para sa kanila. I learned that you have to be a little selfish at some point and only do things that make you happy cause you know, who cares? You gotta savor every second of life till the end and remember to use it well. Regrets come with lessons as what they say. Although, because of wrong choices and mistakes, we hurt someone we love. And it fucking hurts when we see our loved ones hurt because of us. The scene where Giyo and Dox were fighting for a gun really got me. It's usually a cliche scene we see in dramas a lot but it made me cry. Ay dami kong kwento grabe. Ehem.

I'm really thankful to those who followed Dox and Giyo's story, no matter how weird, awful, or crazy it was. I'm also shocked at how the story turned out. Yes, I'm the author but also, wtf just happened there. Nakailang mura yata ako habang nagbabasa dahil tangna? My poor innocent eyes jk.

To those people in love, you're blessed.
To those who haven't found love yet, love will find you.
And to those who have been hurt because of love, tagay!

In the end, I hope you find more stories to read inside and outside of Wattpad. And I hope you learn a lot from those. Till next time~

P.S. Ready na book covers for the other parts of Bad Pentalogy pero hindi pa ready ang brain ko hahahahaha. Next one's going to be Dread's story so alam niyo na gagawin. *wink
