PARIS POV:

so that hangout is quite fun kasi he's funny to be with naman talaga. He even sent me home last night, we don't have any classes today kaya I'm here at my room chillin. Not until someone knocked. I quickly got off the bed and opened the door.

" iha, your father wants to talk to you " my mom said

" okay ma, I'll just follow you downstairs "

" No iha, go to his room "

so i went to my father so called office room in our house, idk what's his deal this time.

as i enter the room, i can clearly sense that his mad about something.

" what did i tell you? " my father said

" why are you acting dumb huh, i didn't raise you to be this hard headed. Kailangan ikaw palagi number 1 wag mong hinahayaang nalalamangan ka! " he's shouting again

I'm here listening this his yaps, fighting the urge of crying

" are you listening! that's the only thing I'm asking you to do, you distance yourself dyan sa raven na yan. How many times do i need to remind you that he's your enemy here! "

" do you like that guy huh, paris you must listen to us this is for your own good " no I'm suffocating..

" don't let him distract you he's just going to deceive you like his father does to me. You go to your room, i hope this conversation won't happen again. I hope you'll listen to me, this is for the sake of our family and our reputation. " yeahhh reputation

I went out of that house trying to calm myself and fighting the urge of breaking down in public. So i walked and walked until i found this mini park that seem has no people.

so i sat in the swing, naramdaman ko na parang may tao sa likod ko so i quickly check

so i sat in the swing, naramdaman ko na parang may tao sa likod ko so i quickly check. I'm kinda shock seeing the first person i wanted to be here is actually here smiling at me.

" why so shock huh? kinda late na bat nasa labas ka pa? " he asked and sat beside me

" why so shock huh? kinda late na bat nasa labas ka pa? " he asked and sat beside me

I'm holding my emotions kasi ayokong umiyak sa harap nya

" you're not okay, aren't you? " he said while swinging

and that's the sign, i give up my barrier and started crying. I felt someone's hands untop of mine again for the second time but same hand and person.

" I don't want to ask kung anong nangyare saka baka ayaw mo rin pag usapan, pero gusto kong malaman mo na nandito ako para sa'yo okay? Pag kailangan mo ng maiiyakan nandito ako. Pag kailangan mo ng masasandalan nandito ako. Pag kailangan mo ng kausap nandito ako. Pag kailangan mo ng makikinig lagi akong makikinig sa'yo. Don't you ever forget that okay? " he slowly wipe my tears and i can't handle it anymore.


I cried even harder as a felt someone is tapping my back slowly and trying to calm me down

" shhhh, tahan na andito na ko. Hinde natin sila bati okay? " he continues

" you don't need to hide your emotions, you need to let it out. Kaya umiyak ka lang hanggang gusto mo, andito ako para damayan ka. " he said that completely calmed me down

" you're not alone in this okay? " he said

" mhm " i replied

he suddenly smiled and that cause me to smile too

he wiped my tears again

" I'm here now, i got you paris " he said before helping me stand up
