The tangalog who tried

I’ll surely miss our sabaw moments. I’ll miss your scent, especially when we hug and cuddle on top of a bed in some room where no one can find us. But most of all, I’ll miss how you make me laugh, sah.

I’m sorry it didn’t work out. I’m sorry you got tired. I’m sorry I gave up. I wanted it to be you, but maybe we’re just not meant to be by each other’s side. I’ll love and cheer for you from afar.

I pray that you stay healthy, leave the Coke Zero behind and get that Dr’s appointment, okay? I hope you finally catch up on your running. Maybe in a few months, you’ll be able to join a half mary.

If you ever meet another tangalog, I hope you remember me because of that.

You deserve all the adobo in the world!
