Chapter 6

I don’t know if I will be hurt or happy with what I saw. I hope that maybe it's still possible. I know it’s been a few years too, but I’m still here waiting. I am still here in the place where you left me. I still remember how you drove me away at those times. I knelt down in front of you so you wouldn't leave me, but no, you chose to stay away.

“Is it really final? Will you really leave me? ” I said to Marcus.

"I'm sorry but I'll be okay in another country." he replied as he arranged the belongings he had left in the condo.

“Why? Do I think we will achieve our dreams together? Didn't we promise to be by your side, by your side, when we become successful? What? Just like that? ” I asked him.

"Promises are meant to be broken" he replied as he closed his suitcase.

He was about to leave the condo but I stopped him. I knelt down in front of him because

maybe this is the way for him not to leave.

“M-Marco, p-please…” I said.

"What? Luna, isn't that clear to you? Stand there ”Marco said as he helped me stand.

When we stood up he hugged me tightly and wiped away my tears. I thought he had changed his mind, but then he left me too.

I was going to chase her in the elevator but Olivia came. He restrained and calmed me during those times.

“Leave him alone, sister. Don't force it ”Olivia told me.

Because of that I no longer believe in promises. I'm also scared when someone promises me, I feel like they'll do to me what Marco did, and I don't want that to happen again.

I haven't fallen in love since Marco left me. I am afraid that I will give my heart to someone else again. I was afraid of being hurt again, so I decided to just love myself and my family.

“Are you okay sister? Let it go, it's been a few years. Do you know that Sol is your one? Do you really know what is destined for each other? ” said Olivia to me.

“Are you destined there? I'm not ready to love again. And one more thing, I still don’t know if that’s really good, but let’s see at the event. ” my answer.

"As long as I can feel something, it's just me now." said Olivia.

“What's his username again? I will check Insta ”I asked.

"@Solvillanueva" Olivia replied.

I immediately looked at his IG account. It looks kind.

“Handsome right? ” Olivia asked.

“Pwede na…” I replied while scrolling through Sol Villanueva's IG feed.

"If you don't like me, charot!" Olivia joked.

“Wait, I thought you were there with Sol's friend? Is that James? ” I will ask.

“Can I have both? Joke! I can review again. ” said Olivia as she entered her room.

This is another. I was also afraid that Olivia would find a man to be with. When that happened, I was sure I would be left alone. I don't want to be alone. I was scared to be alone.

Too bored, I tried to message Sol on Twitter.

“Hi! This is Luna. How are you? ” I said. Sleepy maybe. The check mark did not blue, so that means it was not seen.

I turned off all the lights and entered my room. I immediately straightened up and lay down on my bed to rest.

I was about to close my eyes but suddenly someone texted me.

“Hello Ms. Luna! Sorry for the late reply, I just finished cleaning the house. I'm okay, are you? How are you?" said Sol

"It's okay too, I'm just thinking about something right now, but that's okay" I replied.

“Sus, are you still there? You can do it! Just in case you need someone to talk to, I'm always here ah? Btw, we'll meet soon, won't we? ” he says.

“Yes, it's only been almost 2 weeks. Very close. Has my brother met yet? ” I will ask.

“Ah, at the mall the other day. That's my friend's crush. ” he said.

“Ow, the feeling is mutual. Wait, let me just ask, we also met at the mall, right? Because your face is familiar. It's like we've met somewhere. ” I said

“Ah yes. I thought you never remembered. I was the one who shouted ‘LUNA MAHAL NA MAHAL KITA’. You know, I just want to sink into shame then? When you got in the car, everyone suddenly looked at me, ”Sol said to me

“Ah, I think I heard that. My driver also laughed a bit. All right, I’m sleepy. Good night! ” I told him

“All right, good night! See you soon, Luna ”Sol said to me.

When I looked at Sol's Twitter account he suddenly tweeted.

@solvillanueva: GOOD NIGHT TO YOU ALL! I TALKED ABOUT MY CRUSH TODAY, I HOPE YOU HAVE A GOOD BREAKFAST TOMORROW!

I don’t know if I’m going to laugh or what. Being a fanboy is really bad. I'm just happy because he's the kind of fanboy who knows his limits. He didn't force me to talk to him anymore.
