Hindi ko alam kung saan nanggaling ang kumurot sa dibdib ko. Strangers? Talaga? Bahagya akong napangiti. Yung tipong hindi ko alam kung matatawa ba ako o maiinis. "Oh?" Mahinahon kong sabi.

“Maybe the wolf was in love with the moon and each month they cried out for a love it would never touch. And maybe I was destined to forever fall in love with people I couldn't have. I don’t even remember why I’m wasting all these tears on you…” Narinig niya na ang tinutugtog nitong piyesa. “Stranger to your love” ang title niyon. It was a beautiful piece, yet sad. She sang beautifully with eyes still closed. He could feel her heart breaking as she was singing the song. Sa malamyos na tinig nito ay para siyang inaanyayahan na lapitan ito.

“I should know about you. I just helped a 'stranger' from those dangerous people.” Tinitigan ko siya habang unti-unting nawawala ang ngisi ko. May kung ano sa mata niya na hindi ko matukoy. It's something deep. And the way he considered me as a 'stranger' give an exquisite feeling inside me. He really didn't remember me at all. "Anong ibig mong sabihin?" Nagkunwari akong wala maalala.

"Can we be friends? Nabasa ko kanina sa cellphone mo, college ka na. First year mo ba? This is my second year sa college pero baka gusto mo ng apartment na pags-stay-an?

"Anong kinalaman n’un sa tanong ko?" The stranger clicked his tongue, losing his patience. "Nevermind. Just give me the address." "Nope." "Woman—" "Man." "Look—" "I don't wanna look." He sighed, defeated. "Umuwi ka na kung gusto mo. Iwan mo ako rito. I'll be fine," I insisted. "You can't even stand on your own." "Then I'll stay here until I'm sober. Just go home, okay?" "Kung gago at walanghiya lang ako, iyon talaga ang gagawin ko."
