Amidst this rain is a falling tear
It seems like she has this strong force that keeps myself pushing towards her.
She was high and I am so low. A lowly creature whom his father loathe a lot.
I try to fight this love that we had but it seems like heaven and earth is against on us.
Her father brought me to the situation whom I can't get out.
He set me up so that her daughter will hate me to death.
One
day it was late afternoon, Maria the love of my life and I planned to
met at the same place where we used to met. Under the old Mango tree. I
was so excited at that time because I am planning to run away with her
and start anew to the far province of my relative. Hoping our fate will
change and equally start a new life not as Maria and Pedro but as other
person that no one can ever distinguish.
As
I arrived on the place, I noticed someone was already there. I thought
it was Maria so I hugged her tightly but it turns out to be not her. My
mistake. It was my childhood friend Helena, who I knew has a desire on
me.
"Pedro! I've been waiting for you like years only to know that you will left me behind just for her."
"Helena I'm sorry I did not want you to wait for me. I did not ask you to do it. So don't bug me about it."
"I
can feel it Pedro, you like me also but.. but because of her you are
just force to love her. What you felt towards her is just purely
sympathy. You just pity her that's all."
"Stop
this foolishness Helena. I know what I feel! I love Maria and only her.
Now go away! I don't want her to see you in our place."
"Pedro please I'm begging you to love me. I am willing to give all of me to you. Just, just love me in return."
"You're
so pathetic and desperate Helena. What's in the word I DON'T LOVE YOU,
you can't understand? You want me to spell it for you?"
"Don't
you dare mock on me Pedro, I'm saving your life here. Before they do
something wrong to you. You can run away with me and you'll be safe."
"You're sick! I'd rather be beaten up or die fighting for our love than to be safe regretting my cowardice."
"I can't believe this! I just did my best to warn you. Now, they have to this to you."
After
what she said, I felt someone punched me at my back and covered my nose
with a hanky. I felt dizzy and my eyesight turns black. It was too late
to realize that the hanky contained drugs, in an instant I felt asleep.
I was awake to I don't know how many hours slumber when I hear a familiar voice crying, no weeping.
"Now tell me Maria, Is this the person you said worth fighting for? His not just poor but also a good for nothing ass." Her father said.
Then
it hit me, it came to my realization that Maria is crying because
beside me is Helena, acted like sleeping but I know that she's not. We
were naked and one thing would be the conclusion if somebody will see
us, we had an intimate moment a while ago under the Mango tree, that I
only planned to do with Maria. Wicked witch, she tricked me.
"Maria let me explain! It's not what you think it is."
"I saw it in my two eyes Pedro. Your infidelity ruined it all. You just kill me." A sharp thing just hit my heart and I know it's bleeding silently.
I hold her wrist as she was trying to run away.
"Listen
to me first Maria, your father planned it all. He set me up so that you
will hate me. I'm begging you, please believe me."
"You're
mad Pedro. My father is a loving father, he even accompany me to you
and I ask his blessing to go with you because I know he will understand
me. But now what, arriving here seeing my boyfriend no cut that crap,
EX-BOYFRIEND, giving us a live show with his other woman. Now tell me,
where did I go wrong? Or is it really wrong the first time my heart
beats on you? Now release my hand and LEAVE ME ALONE." She said in between her sobs.
I saw her running away, running away in my life and all I could do was just to stare at her back doing nothing but cry while it's raining.
If only I insisted on pursuing her that very moment and force her to believe me, she wouldn't be here in a lonely box lying lifelessly. Looking so peaceful and contented. It hurts, just by staring that casket with flowers surrounding it. It doesn't look appealing to my eyes not when the one you LOVE was smilingly lying there with no trace of anger. It stabbed by heart and crumpled it a million times.
Why? Why did you do it. I didn't do anything to caused your life, was this the price I got for loving you? The pain is unbearable, I can't hardly breathe. I lost my mind when I saw you hanging on the Mango tree where we promise to each other that we will share our forever. Again it was raining, it was pouring for me.
Why? Why Maria, it should be me and not you. I am so sorry for being so weak, I didn't defend you to the pain I caused and you just ended your life with that.
I could conquer the world with just one hand, as long as your holding the other. But how? There will be no Maria who will be happily holding my hand while facing the mob. How can I continue living without you by my side? You just left me without telling me how to continue breathing. Oh Maria, my loving Maria.
It will be okay to me if you just leave me and continue living. At least I can see you laughing and living your life to the fullest even if there will be no Pedro who's on your side. I will just content myself from afar. Things would be different.
I will never be seeing you again, I'll never see your lovely face, your contagious laughter and your loving presence.

Yes!
He had succeeded! He had just ripped our heart's into pieces.And now,
literally causes our death. He may be successful on tearing us apart on
earth but I'm hopeful that to the other life, their will be a Part two
of our love story who just ended tragically.
"MOVE ON" sounds easy right?
But you have to die a million times in pain just to appreciate this word. And now, I want to die to stop this agony.
My mind is already fixed, I'm holding the same rope you use on slaying your life. At last, I'll be with you. I so miss you Maria. I didn't regret the time that I learn to love you it was the best feeling in the world. And if given another chance to live again it is always you whom I choose.
I knotted the rope to the tree, I check its durability and put it to my neck. I've never been so sure in my life not when Maria came. The second time whom I know what to do is this very moment.
"I LOVE YOU MARIA. NO ONE CAN ALTER THAT NOT EVEN YOUR DAD NOR DEATH CAN MAKE US A PART."
As I was finished saying my last sentence I jumped from the trunk of the tree that makes me hanging by the rope. I'm running out of breathe but I could still feel the rain pouring on me. Feels like it was mourning on behalf of the people loving me, with that A TEAR FALL DOWN IN MY RIGHT EYE and all went blank.
- THE END -
