Bawi Nalang Tayu Next Life, Something Like That.

"Do you still love me?" It became more awkward after she spoke to me like that, is she never known how to use the break in her month?. It was a cozy night. Indeed, we were two sitting on the rooftop. The stars were quiet, and the night was perfect as the breeze of the air was so relaxing. The awkwardness of our position diminished when I lay down my head on the cemented roof of the building. She did the same, just that she blew the dirt first before laying down her body just like me. I just laughed silently; she never changed. Concise still in the move she makes. "Answer my question."

"Did you love me?" Also, no break that I just asked. The mood is much more converted in such an intense scene. I also could feel the burning feeling inside me. Just like the first time she hugged me, some excitement occurred.

"Yeah, I did love you." Then comes the moment she laughed; I look at her. There was a genuine smirk in her smile. "Maybe," my smile faded, and her smirk was also gone. A good joke isn't it?. "Did you ever love me?" Now she's the one who was interrogating me. No one wanted to talk; we both knew the answer, why we were acting like a child just to start a conversation, we should just ask what happened at work, in her place, and even her plans for next month, right?. Why do we come out on the topic of the past?.

"You know you begged for me to love you, right?" I laughed, and she reacted like an angry, pissed woman. "Oww, really?" she raised her body, and now she is just sitting, looking at me like a smiling mad woman. She was cute in her reaction, I admit. "Excuse me, Mr. I just said yes to you before because I felt pity for you" then she laughed, and I did the same as a sign of good response. "You might be single in your own life if I never said yes to you." She continued to dress and fix her shirt, I thought she would be gone, but never she did.

She again lay down just beside me.

"You still remember those days are you?" She refers to the memories; never in my mind did I forget those. "How do you feel about loving me?" another awkward question aroused in her mouth, like nothing she cared about. Who will hurt if those questions come in a serious answer?

"You never asked that before."

"Maybe because I was afraid at that time. I was afraid of your answer." The tone of her voice was lowered. We were two alone in the middle of the rooftop of the school building at night, something just came out in my head, but I didn't know how to respond to that. "Because I know who you are and what you have done if ever" there was a tear in my heart listening to her.

"Did I give you too much hard times?" I feel like she's about to cry, yet she canceled it by laughing.

"The question is, did you give me time." Then she laughed harder; that was awkward yet came in the vein of my armor. So the answer is that I really just gave her biased.

"You were getting mean to me!" acted as a cute boy pouted. She laughed more hard as she looked at me. I don't look appealing; it's just that I do that more often after watching some Korean series when she commanded me to download it for her to watch. She said I had never looked like Oppa in the series. I should stop pouting like that; it ruined the picture of her KPOP idols.

"I am just getting honest, thank you very much!" She laughed more.

"Does you really mean all those things you said to me?" again, another conversation asking about the past. Somehow I really questioned women; how many Gigabytes do they have in mind for still remembering this all the time?. "You know when you said you loved me and I was the only one?". The heavy air with dirt just jumped in my eyes, then I could feel the dust irritate me, causing discomfort and tears in my eyes. "Are you crying?" she was about to stand up again, but I made the first move. I cover my eyes with my hands.

"No, it's the dust." She laughed at me.

"Do you know that I cried too, very often" I looked at her? "I cried when it felt like things were getting worst," now I could feel the real drama in her soul. "I cried because of you!" I wanted to hug her, but I choices not. I just look at her as the karma comes into my body, collecting the hardship I might cause to bounce back to me. "You caused me nothing but heartbreak those times we were together!".

"I know"

"You know nothing!" she said.

"Yeah," I clean my pants from sitting on the dirty floor. "I am nothing" and just looking down from the top of the building. The night activity of the school wasn't yet done. Still, the live band was singing, and everyone seems to enjoy that so far.

"Don't worry, I won't cause trouble again," I said with a smile, offering my hand for her to stand and fix things in her dress. She accepts my hand.

“Bawi nalang tayu next life, something like that”. She just laughed and agreed by shaking her head as if saying yes.

"Yeah, next life if we were together, again."
