Intro (Christine):
There will be moments where you will fail to realize that you will regret the decision you have made. There will be tens, hundreds, even thousands of those moments; moments you can't alter; moments that will haunt you for the rest of eternity...
Like when the one who believed in you before, failed to reciprocate your feelings now; especially when that person you love now, once loved you.

Narrator [First Person as Sonia] (Christine):
It was a normal day at school. The cacophony-like chatter of the classroom; the drone of the boring old incoherent history teacher gibbering something about a battle in Mactan place thingamajig; some pea-brains at the back were nodding off, couldn't blame them really. Generally, I was stuck in purgatory.
You could say I'm a loner, not that I care, no.
Tss. I don't care at all... [Voice wavering and unsure]
Nobody understood the façade I had to keep, I don't want complications.
I can't trust anyone.
It was Valentine's Day or should I say Dooms Day, the sissies came out of their sissy holes and was giving their measly attempts on luring poor girls into oblivion, no one made the mistake of getting near me. Not until this creature popped out of nowhere.

Conversation--
Sky (Mirwen):
Heya Sonia! [Says excitingly]
Sonia (Christine):
Oh... Hello... [irate and looks away]
Sky (Mirwen):
You don't look so good, mind if I gave you this? 😊 [Gives flowers and chocolate]
Sonia (Christine):
Why are you giving this to me? [Surprised but talks uninterested]
Sky (Mirwen):
Oh nothing, you seem so lonely. So I just thought of giving this [Says happily]
Sonia (Christine):
Oh...Uh...Thanks. [Looks away. Ew, what a dweeb]
Sky (Mirwen):
[Looks a bit sad] So, uh. I'll just put this in your desk.
Sonia (Christine):
Whatever
*Classmates Whispering*
Sonia (Christine):
...[irked and undisturbed]
--->
Narrator [First Person as Sonia] (Christine):
The dweeb had guts. But still, he can't fool me. I know that for him, I'm just another pretty face.
After class that day, he came... running...
--->
Sky (Mirwen):
Hey Sonia! Wait Up! *pants* *coughs*
Sonia (Christine):
What do you want? [Talks irritated]
Sky (Mirwen):
May I have the honor of walking you home? Haha. [Says happily but exhaustingly]
Sonia (Christine):
Fine [stalks off undaunted]
Sky (Mirwen):
Wait up! [panting]
--->
Narrator [First Person as Sonia] (Christine):
So it turns out Sky was my classmate, never really noticed. Who cares anyway? Thing was, he says he was once part of the outcast scene...what happened there? Weird.
--->
*Walking by the sidewalk*
Sky (Mirwen):
Uhm, so hey. What did you do to my gifts. I don't see you holding them. I also didn't see you eat those chocolates.
Sonia (Christine):
I threw them... [cold and unwavering]
Sky (Mirwen):
B-but...why?
Sonia (Christine):
You just gave them because I was the most convenient...
You didn't give them because you wanted to...
You made me feel like a trophy... [Cries and runs home]
Sky (Mirwen):
SONIA!!! [Chases]
*Both runs*
*Sky catches Sonia and grasps her arms just before she enters the gates of her house*
Sonia (Christine):
Let go of me! [Cries]
Sky (Mirwen):
Sonia! Listen!
I gave them because I love you! [Exclaims sadly]
Sonia (Christine):
[Shocked] *Sniff* eh?...
Sky (Mirwen):
I gave them because, I love you, Sonia.
I understand your feelings of loneliness, I know it hurts to be lonely.
There's something in you, something that would make me feel happy every time I see you.
That's when I realized that I love you.
[Says hesitatingly and slowly]
Sonia (Christine):
LIES! LIES! [Cries]
*Sky loses grip on Sonia*
*Sonia enters her house*
Sky (Mirwen):
Sonia...
--->
Narrator [First Person as Sonia] (Christine):
I pretended to be alright when I was inside the house or my parents would suspect something happened.
I ate dinner with a normal look and a fake smile. I slept crying.
Still thinking that he's lying...
The next day after class, he came to me while I was heading home.
I tried to hide but he already saw me...
--->
Sky (Mirwen):
Uh, hey... Sonia...
Want me to accompany you home? [Say hesitatingly]
Sonia (Christine):
That won't be necessary. [Walks away]
Sky (Mirwen):
*Grasps Sonia's Arm*
I love you Sonia so it's my duty to protect you, don't you love me too? [Smiles]
Sonia (Christine):
WHAT?!
Sky (Mirwen):
Uhhh [Shocked], I mean... as a classmate?
Sonia (Christine):
No, now let go of me.
Sky (Mirwen):
Well whatever, I heard that when a boy treats the girl right, she'll be in-love with you. Haha
I'll follow you home, just to keep you safe.
Sonia (Christine):
Whatever...
*Walks home*
*Safely arrives*
Sky (Mirwen):
Welp, were here!
Sonia (Christine):
Yeah. You can leave now.
Sky (Mirwen):
I... I guess I'll be going now... bye then... stay safe... [Says sadly]
Sonia (Christine):
Ah! Uhm, Sky.
Sky (Mirwen):
What is it?
Sonia (Christine):
Thank you for accompanying me back home. I appreciate it.
Though, I won't love you no matter what you do. *giggles*
Sky (Mirwen):
Haha! Let's just see about that! XD
Don't worry, sometimes people tend to lose their love on one person if the person they love doesn't love back.
Sonia (Christine):
Let's see you fail *smirks*
Sky (Mirwen):
Maybe you'll even love me before that! Haha
Sonia (Christine):
I don't think so. [smiles]
Bye, Sky.
Sky (Mirwen):
[Says happily]
Bye Sonia! 😊
--->
Narrator [First Person as Sonia] (Christine):
We became friends on that day.
He was my only friend.
He understands me, how I feel.
As time passed, I started to like him. I'm always happy being with him.
He always asked me if I loved him, I always denied it. I was scared to trust him that much. What if he asks me to be his girlfriend? I can't be unfair to him, I can't chain him into my world of grief.
One day, he introduced me to his new friend.
--->
Sky (Mirwen):
Hey Sonia, this is Maya, a transferee. She just transferred from her school due to some problems.
Sonia (Christine):
Oh, hey there Maya!
Maya (Yna):
Uhm, hi [Says timidly]
Sky (Mirwen):
The three of us would make great friends!
Sonia (Christine):
Yep! Haha
Maya (Yna):
Yeah... [Smiles]
--->
Narrator [First Person as Sonia] (Christine):
I had a strange feeling. I felt less happier than before. It's like Maya is in the top of his priority. Also, the way he looked at Maya, it was the way he looked at me before.
It was summer, class was over.
Me and Sky were on the park, laying on the grass together under the shade of a tree.
Then Sky said something, something that hurt a lot...
--->
Sky (Mirwen):
It's a great day isn't it!
Sonia (Christine):
Yeah, I guess so...
Sky (Mirwen):
Hey Sonia, guess what?
Me and Maya are in a relationship!
Sonia (Christine):
Uh, what about...us? [Says hesitatingly]
Sky (Mirwen):
I wish it was us, but my love for you faded away.
You never even loved me anyway. Haha.
Sonia (Christine):
Oh, Well then I'm really happy for you [musters a brittle and 'barely-there' smile ]
Sky (Mirwen):
You're still my best friend though, haha.
Hey, next school year, I'm gonna transfer to another school.
Sonia (Christine):
WHAT? Tell you're joking.
Sky (Mirwen):
My family is having some problems here, so my parents thought of transferring to my grandparents house. The best thing is that, Maya is transferring too because of the same reason, we're gonna go to the same school!
Don't worry, I'll stay connected with you 😊
Sonia (Christine):
Uhm... Alright, don't forget about me, ok? [Smiles]
--->
Narrator [First Person as Sonia] (Christine):
It left me sleepless, I regret the fact that I denied him.
Now he's on a relationship with Maya, it hurt so much.
The day he was going to transfer, he was with Maya.
I didn't know Maya was my neighbor. It seems like his parents were friends with Maya's parents.
They left together, I just stared out the window.
When he saw me, he waved then entered the car. When I waved back, he already entered the car.
I felt like my goodbye was useless.
His destination was pretty far, I don't even know exactly where they are...
During class, I felt lonely again, I feel like I could never bring back the moments.
Those moments where I felt loved.
Though, every after class, he always had time to chat to me.
We chatted a lot. Months later, he slowly started to stop chatting.
He didn't reply to my messages. Now that he doesn't reply. I feel a lot more lonely than ever.
One day, I was strolling out of our house, I saw him walking with Maya...
--->
Sonia (Christine):
Sky? [walks pensively and approaches]
Sky (Mirwen):
Oh, hey Sonia...
Sonia (Christine):
You're not replying to my messages, explain! *HAHA* [Says nervously]
Sky (Mirwen):
I guess I've been too busy lately.
Look, we have to go. [Says seriously]
Sonia (Christine):
I think me, you and Maya should stroll around here, for old times sake 😊 [Smiles]
Sky (Mirwen):
No, we have to go, let's go Maya.
Maya (Yna):
Uhm...ok...
Sonia (Christine):
C'mon! Pleaaaaase! [I'm desprate]
Sky (Mirwen):
Maya just wanted to look around here so she could bring back pictures for keepsakes. We have to go. I'm sorry, Sonia.
Sonia (Christine):
...ok... Be sure to visit again, ok?
Sky (Mirwen):
*Sigh*, yeah whatever. Let's go Maya. [Turns around and walks away]
Maya (Yna):
I... I'm sorry Sonia. He has his problems... [Follows Sky]
--->
Narrator [First Person as Sonia] (Christine):
I went back home, sat down in a corner of my room, feeling the loneliness again. It hurts more than it was before.
I looked up to my study table and see the wilted flowers he gave me.
Flashbacks started roam in my mind, recalling those precious happy moments. It hurt a lot.
It's one of those moments.
Remorse really is at the receiving end of bad decisions.
I understand that he doesn't want to be friends anymore, but to barely talk to me at all feels like a sordid knife of pain wedged inside my hollow void of a chest cavity; he took my heart him him and it fucking hurts.
The worse thing is, I lied to him about throwing his gifts that day, I should have told him that I actually ate the chocolates and kept the flowers in my old untouched vase.
A vase that I long hoped to be full of flowers, flowers of love. Instead, it's filled with flowers of remorse.
