Novel & Cerita I Couldn't Ask For More

♬ I do cherish you For the rest of my life You don't have to think twice I will love you still From the depths of my soul It's beyond my control I've waited so long to say this to you If you're asking do I love you this much I do In my world, before you I lived outside my emotions Didn't know where I was going 'Til that day I found you How you opened my life To a new paradise In a world torn by change Still with all of my heart 'Til my dying day♬

"Can't you be more sincere? Parang wala ka namang pake eh." "Ano pa ba gusto mong sabihin ko? Wow! Ang galing mo sobra, pa-autograph nga po idol! Or, Jade! How can you be so talented! How to be like you po?" Napa-irap naman sya sa'kin. I can't be more sarcastic right now. I may have been impressed, but I'm pissed off right now. "Minsan tinatanong ko sarili ko kung best friend nga ba talaga kita." At nagtampo na si Jade.

"I'm sorry! But don't worry, I'll give back everything you supposed to have. Lahat ng para sa iyo at ang buhay na deserve mo." "Hindi ko kailangan ng mga bagay na iyon, Grayson dahil sapat na sa akin kung anong mayroon ako, sapat na sa akin ang pagmamahal na nakukuha ko mula sa mga taong totoong nagmamahal sa akin and that's enough for me. I didn't ask anything more."

“I don’t know why I do what I do…” Tumingin siya sa malayo. “I’m desperate for love,” bulong niya sa hangin. “I need a lot of things. I want a lot of things. I’m so broken I want others to fix me. I’m incapable of asking for help because I don’t want others to pity me. I didn’t grow up like that. Asking for help is a weakness. Ilang beses ko na kayong inabala, nanghingi ng pabor. Hindi na kaya ng kahihiyan ko.”

At napiyok pa ako sa dulo. "I'm not selfish, but I'm being honest with myself. If you want to stay in my life, then stay, I will not stop you. If you want to love me, then just love me, I can't control that. But my only request is, please, let me still love and be with the person I love." Nakikiusap ako sa kanya kahit na hindi ko alam kung tama pa ba itong ginagawa ko. Sobrang desperada na ako, na muling makasama si Erica. I really miss her!

Ang simpleng linyang iyon ay tumama sa kanya na parang pangako. “Everything I want?” Sa isip niya, iyon na marahil ang kumpirmasyon na matagal niyang hinihintay. Tinitigan niya si Caden, mahigpit na hinawakan ang champagne glass, sabay ngumiti ng matamis, determinadong hindi palalampasin ang sandaling iyon. “To us,” sabi niya nang may pilit na lambing. “To everlasting love.”

“Why?” Agad siyang nagkibit balikat. “I just want to.” Napatango ito. “I know I am asking for too much, but Nica… can you stay over the night?”

Halatang sabik na sabik ang dalawa. Humarap ako sa kanya at masuyo siyang hinalikan sa labi. "Parang ayoko matulog kasi sobrang saya ko. I could't ask for more baby. I am living the perfect life. Binigay ng Maykapal ang buhay na higit pa sa pangarap ko. Buhay na kabaliktaran sa kinalakihang mundo ko." Naluluhang sambit ko dahil sa nag uumapaw na emosyon.

I gave her more of me. ---
