“Ito na ko, Autum. Hindi mo na pwedeng baguhin. I’m messed up, chaotic and twisted. I’ve been like this for so long, it’s not like kaya kong biglang baguhin ang lahat para lang sayo.” malungkot na saad niya habang diretsong nakatingin sakin ang mga mata niyang napupuno na unti-unti ng luha. “Phoe-” “No, Autumn. I really understand. Ganyan ka, ganito ako. We are two different beings, maybe you won’t ever understand me, so do I. So whatever your decision will be, I’ll gladly accept it. I will respect it, we will respect it. Ganoon ka kahalaga. Ganoon kita kamahal. It’s your call. Whether you would be willing to get tangled up into this mess and damaged world of mine or would rather stay outside.” dagdag niya pa at saka ko iniwan sa gitna ng malawak na park na ‘to.

Ang buhay nila na tila ba langit at lupa ngunit ang pagmamahalan ay siyang pumapagitna. “Akin ka, sa’kin ka lang at walang sino man’ ang pwedeng umagaw sayo. I maybe a bad person in your eyes and this bad person will be your worst nightmare once you betrayed me!” Dahil sa mga ala-ala ay natakot na ulit siyang sumugal at ibigay lahat. Pero pagdating sa isang lalaki na kinabaliwan niya ng husto ay susugal siyang muli at hindi niya hahayaang iwan o mawala ito sa kaniya. “Hindi, hinding-hindi ako magiging sayo! Ako lang ang nagmamay ari sa sarili ko! Lubayan mo ako!” He's the son of General in military. A spoiled yet rebelled son who will do everything to claim what he likes. He once betrayed by the girl he loved and now he won't let that happen again. “I want you.” Zephraime said. Ang mga pusong pinigilan at pilit na himahadlangan ng mga taong hindi pabor sa kanilang nararamdaman. “Bakit hindi mo maintindihan na hindi pwede! Bakit hindi mo maintindihan na mali ang nararamdaman mo! B-bakit… bakit hindi mo maintindihan n-na m-mali ito…” “You know that it's not wrong, alam mo sa sarili mo na walang mali pero yang isip mo, pilit na hinahadlangan ang puso mo!” Mali nga ba o talagang takot lang ang nangunguna? Lalaban pa ba o titigil na? Tatanggapin na lamang ba ang kapalarang kahit kelan ay hindi magiging sila? ‘I own you, you are mine.’ ‘Please tama na, hindi ko na kayang ipagtulakan ka pa.’ A man with responsibility and truth to his words. He is not an evil or a bad person but he will definitely possessive for ‘CLAIMING HIM’.
