Profanity ahead.

His mom hugged her tight, both still crying hard. They both didn't speak. It was painful that she couldn't say a word.

It was only this morning when she saw Aga, he was sweet, clingy and thoughtful. Little did she know that it would be the last time that she'd see him alive.

His mom told her to go near the coffin.

Still feeling weak, she tried her best to gather up all her strength to see him.

She took steps towards the coffin. People were watching her as she struggled walking towards it. They feel the pain. They were all silent.

She didn't look inside. She closed her eyes and put her hands above the clear glass. Her sobs became louder. After a while, she felt a hand rubbing her back, it was Dawn, trying to console her friend.

"Open your eyes." she said.

She slowly opened her eyes to look inside the coffin. Her world stopped upon seeing it. Her heart stopped beating and her breathing was unexplainable. She clasped her hands together.

The coffin contains a 3D version of a heart with a note written on it.

"Condolence sa puso kong patay na patay sa'yo. Magkabalikan lang tayo, buhay na ulit ako."

Dawn smirked at her and patted her back before leaving her.

"Punyeta ka, Aga!" she shouted, loud enough to be heard by the people outside. "Alam mo, ako ang papatay sa'yo!" she shouted again.

Instead of getting afraid, people inside smiled and took a picture of her. She glanced at her friends who were laughing at the moment. She glared at them and raised her middle finger with angst, "Mamaya kayong lahat sa akin." she warned them.

Vice laughed louder. It was his first time to see Lea raising her middle finger at them. "Pagbabayaran ni Aga 'to." he told their friends.

She didn't move for she's still trying to recover. She felt like she was doing a movie and she's with great actors pretending to be hurt. She smirked but she was mad at Aga.

After a moment, she heard a strumming of guitar.

Sige na, please
'Wag nang mainis
Bumalik ka na sa akin
Sorry, mahal, ika'y nasaktan
Bumalik ka--

She ran towards Aga who was singing with all his heart and took the mic from him. She slapped his right cheek and punched his chest.

"Walanghiya ka. Para lang sa luma mong pick-up line, paiiyakin mo ako?! Alam mo bang gusto ko na ring magpasaga, ha?!" she shouted. "Gago ka. Kung may hawak lang ako kutsilyo, baka saksakin pa kita. Gusto mo na bang matuluyan, ha?!"

Of course she was just kidding. She can't afford to loose Aga.

Aga frowned and looked around, "Tanggalin niyo na 'yong kabaong. Pati 'yong picture ko, please." he knocked on the wood near him, "Knock on wood. Huwag naman sanang magkatotoo." he joked. The people around laughed and there were several men who removed everything inside the hall.

Lea was still crying. He held her hand and pulled her close. He held her chin and made her look at him, "Kinabahan ka ba?"

"Galit ako. Leche ka." she says.

"Kaya mo ba akong mawala sa'yo?" he asked again.

"Siraulo ka talaga! Alam mo ba kung anong nararamdaman ko ngayon at kung anong naramdaman ko kanina?! Para akong timang, Aga! Ta--"

"I'll repeat the question, babes. Kaya mo bang mawala ako sa'yo?"

She looked at him and saw sincerity in his eyes, she slowly shook her head, "Siyempre, hindi."
