They sat on a picnic blanket under the blossoming trees and the clear sky aboye. J had actually prepared a lot for this pienic, he brought a lol of food and even made a cake just for this occasion, Beside the box of cake was a bouquet of carnations he had bought earlier as a the younger. Occasionally, wild birds would try to come pick a bite off the food, but was met by a strong hi scaring them off Butterflies and bees came to their collection of flowers in search of nectar as squirrels ran around in curiosity na forest filled with life ‘The bwo wore a warm layer of grey clothing that prevented the escape of their exchanging warmth, in a garden of cool winds, After a while of them staring at the sky, J decided to finally show M the cake he proudly made. He got a knife from the basket he prepared and cut two slices from the cake.,J grabbed two plates and put the slices accordingly. He then got forks for the both of them, Look M, I made the chocolate cake we would make so often durin without your help! Aren't you proud of me?"J said as he smiled. Valentine’s. But now I managed to make one “Lrememher how I used to hate chocolate related things my entire life, but eventually grew to love it because of you. You kept eating chocolate because apparently it was your favourite, and I just got used to it I guess.” Jlets outa laugh,VALENTIVE’S PAY “Let’s see how it tastes like.” J took a bite. He slowly chewed as he tasted the cake, and he let out a small laugh, “It’s allittle bit too sweet, I think I added too much sugar to this..." explained as he looked at the cake slice he had. “But hey! It’s my first time. At least it’s edible.” As finished eating another bite, he suddenly remembered the carnations he bought. “Oh, and before | forget, Ihave alittle surprise for you!” J went to get the bouquet of flowers he prepared beside him. “Surprise! I brought you our favorite.” He brought the carnations in front of him, “You would always bring me these flowers whenever you gothome from work. Our apartment used to be filled with these,” J said, his voice wrapped in apparent yearning, With gloomy eyes, he looked at the flowers in his hand. “And now it’s time I'd be the one to give you this. Do you love it?” J expected a reply, but then laughed. “How foolish.” He thought to himself. How could he expect one when he ‘was talking to the ait? J stared at M’s grave, and in each passing second, the smile he had on his face slowly faded away, He started to caress the tombstone, Tears resurfacing once again as he fixed his gaze on the words carved on it.

So much.” A choked sob served as a pause; he was still keep his tears in, begging himself to not ery right now. vying to He thought he accepted it already, he thought he was over it, he thought he was done grieving, he thought he was ready to move on.

The emotions he kept in for so long were starting to backfire. He let outa shaky breath, trying to calm himself, One mor uttered before he let his emotions free. sentence was “Til see you when the time comes.” The sweetness of the cake he had earlier was soon replaced by the sally taste of the tears continuing to fall. J then takes out his phone to stare athis lockscreen which was a photo of him and his said lover, They were trying to recreate the iconic scene from Titanic, with ’s arms around the younger, the both of them smi goofily at the camera, A time J wished he could go back to, They looked so happy back then and acted as if they were the only two people left in the world, but I guess fate just wasn’t on their side in this lifetime. ng Maybe just like the love story in Titanic, theirs was also fated to be tragic.BIKTHPAYS BY: BLEEPBLOOPBLAAP Bernadezza Bautista - 7 Galileo Sounia Pesebre - 7 Galileo Yhixyha Barro - 9 Faraday Markoh Pabellano - 10 Einstein Ryan Soriano - 8 Aristotle Cristus Tipawan - 8 Darwin Charles Lusterio - 8 AristoUle 09TOP 'StORERS September 2020 - February 15, 2021 TONEY GRADE 7 Sounia Angela Pesebre Deneley Antoinette Santos Dillon Lorenz Mallari Jess Hervee Bayocot Benedict John Manzano GRADE 9 Ma.
