" Don't puke on the car seats, okay?" Sabi ni Ezra kay JS habang inaalalayan nila ni Gale sa sasakyan. Lasing na ang lima na lalake at knock out na sila. " Mommy " Sabi ni JS kay Ezra. " Oo, uuwi na tayo anak" Sabi ni Ezra habang inayos nya ang pag higa ni JS.
There were five drunk men at the back sleeping on the pile of stuffed animals.
It was almost 5 in the morning at pauwi na sila.
" Doon nalang kayo mag stay sa place ko, I also need to pack for tomorrow. Meanwhile, magpahinga muna kayo and Ikaw, matulog ka muna" Sabi ni Ezra kay Gale, habang sinuotan nya ng seatbelt.
" I'll stay awake " Sabi ni Gale, looking out the window.
" Ikaw bahala, puyat ka nanaman. Atleast let your body repair itself" Sabi nya.
" Mamaya nalang po. Mas safe na gising ako, kasi pag nakakakita ka ng tulog maantok ka din, kaya...I'll stay awake " Sabi ni Gale.
Hindi muna nagsalita si Ezra. Pinabayaan nya si Gale, sya naman hindi padin nakatingin kay Ezra, napansin to ni Ezra at napangiti nalang sya. " You don't handle confessions well " Sabi ni Ezra, letting out a little laugh. " Huh? Hindi ahh, cool lang ako " Sabi ni Gale, glancing at the smiling Ezra sabay iwas nanaman ng tingin. " Okay, That's cool " Sabi ni Ezra.
" Ku ( ya )...Ezra, Do I...perhaps, remind you of someone? " Sabi ni Gale, this time nakatingin na sya kay Ezra focusing on his facial expression. His expression didn't change he just said Nope. " Ahh okay " Sabi ni Gale, looking back at the window.
" Maybe IU?" Gale asked, once again nagkaroon ng internal battle ang mga workers sa brain nya Tama ba ang sinabi mo? Mali ata yan Sabi ng utak nya.
Ezra laughed. " Not even one bit. You must be wondering kung bakit ko syang bigla na nabanggit kanina?" Sabi ni Ezra.
Hindi umimik si Noreen, nor looked at him. " I just wanted to let you know that I can fall in love, I'm a person too...I have feelings just like you kaya lang, medyo kakaiba nga lang ako maghandle ng feelings ko. That's why, you must know...I trust you kaya ko sinabi sayo si IU. You're the eighth person that knows" Sabi ni Ezra.
Noreen mentally computed...Eighth? Eh Lima lang sila sa barkada nya? " Who's the other two?" Noreen asked .
" Ako at si IU" Ezra smiled at her.
" Can you tell me more about her? I'm curious " Sabi ni Noreen.
" Sure " Sabi ni Ezra, he was cool about it to the point na napatingin na si Noreen sa kanya to observe him more. If a person is cool about the past then he must be really over it.
" IU and I were classmates, kasama nila N. Sa isnag section kami for four years straight, we were on the same band. At ayun, I had a crush on her then I fell for her. Eventually, She fell in love with someone else nung mga panahon na mahirap na magkasama kami or magkita. Nagloko pa ako nung first year, ayaw ko pa sa course ko and then we decided to end our relationship. Ayun, We're friends and she has a boyfriend so don't worry naka move on na ako kay IU" Sabi ni Ezra.
" Ha? Ako ? I'm not worried " Noreen denied as she looked out the window again kasi hindi nya mapigilan ngumiti, nakita naman ni Ezra ang relfection ng mukha ni Noreen sa window at napangiti sya.

Three years ago
It was eleven p.m. , sobrang mahangin ng panahon na yun. IU was wearing a white dress with a bow in the waist line, kakatapos lang ng performance nya sa school and Ezra was late, pero hinintay padin sya si IU sa school nya.
Ezra had dinner with his parents, Lika and her parents. Ezra was running as fast as he could, he was wearing a suit with a bow tie, sweat was dripping beneath the cold starry night. IU was there waiting. Binilisan pa ni Ezra ang pag takbo to the point that he could hear his heartbeat in it's maximum volume.
