Kumusta? I have been thinking how to reconcile with reality my earnest dream to be a part of all the years of your life… Why didn’t our lives meet earlier? Besides height I ran short of years as well. I won’t mention the number of years that you are advanced baka kasi mapunit ang sulat na ito na hindi mo man lamang nababasa ng buo.My point here is not about your age although it’s one of those that I admire about you. My point here is—Where was I during the times when you wanted to share and celebrate life’s goodness?

Though I can never pay you enough, I promise, I’ll pay you as immensely as possible. I’ll also pay you by not hurting the people you love and by waiting for the right time. When we meet again, you can charge me for all my shortcomings. I’ll pay you with my two ears so that I can listen to things you’ve been wanting to tell me. I’ll pay you with my two arms ready to embrace you. When we meet again, I’ll pay you with all the remaining time of my life. And I'll keep paying you until my heart beats its last. When you see me and you burst into tears, please hide your face on my chest beca...
