Regrets
Episode 1
Tears started streaming down my face as I am walking down the aisle. This should be a happy day but I can't stop myself from crying as I looked at him standing in front of the altar.
I looked at him and I saw him crying too. This is a dream come true for me, marrying the man I love the most.
It all started 8 years ago when I am still 15 years old and was having a vacation at my grandmother's house.
One afternoon, he was at the basketball court and his mother ask a favor if I could bring him his snacks.
I immediately agreed. When I reached the basketball court I saw him playing alone and he is shirtless!
Shienna Kim
(He has abs! 😱)
I brushed that thoughts off and started walking towards him. He immediately saw me and frowned when he saw what I am holding.
Shienna Kim
Your mother asked me to give this to you.
Jackson Jung
Tsk. 😒 You know that you don't have to do that.
Shienna Kim
Whatever. Just eat that.
He took the container from me.
We sat on a bench and he started eating. He tried to offer some to me but I refused because I just ate before going out.
I smiled while glancing secretly at him.
Shienna Kim
(I really like even how the way he eats.)
I saw him arched an eyebrow at me so I rolled my eyes at him and looked somewhere. He is cold to me sometimes but it doesn't matter.
Jackson is 6 years older than me and he hates when his mother do this because he felt like he is being treated like a baby but still he can't complain. He doesn't want to hurt his mother's feelings.
Shienna Kim
(I like you even more because of that)
Jackson Jung
Why are you giggling? Did you put something in my food?
Shienna Kim
You're overthinking.
I rested my back on the bench.
Shienna Kim
Im just happy because this moment is kinda romantic, you know...
Shienna Kim
Its just the of us here and-
Jackson Jung
Stop it already. I know what you're about to say so stop.. You know it won't happen.
I feel a lump stuck on my throat as if I want to cry.
Shienna Kim
(I faked laugh) Aren't you too heartless? Whatever.
He finished eating and gave the container back to me.
Jackson Jung
You can go home now. There's no need for you to accompany me here.
Shienna Kim
Don't boss me around.
Jackson Jung
Tss. Then I'll just go first.
He stood up and was about to leave but I stopped him.
Shienna Kim
Why do you keep on doing this to me? I already told you how I feel but you keep on rejecting it..
Jackson Jung
You're 16 years old and too young for me. Stop playing mmkay?
He put his hands on my shoulders and make me face him.
Shienna Kim
I told you Im serious! I have a crush on you ever since I was 8 and Im not playing! Why don't you just accept me?
Jackson Jung
Shienna.. Listen.. If 5 years has passed and you still feel the same way, I'll accept you.
And with that, he left me there full of hope.
Shienna Kim
Just you wait... After 5 years..
Episode 2
I heard my mom shouting in front of my door.
Mommy Shiela
Your grandmother is here!
My eyes widened and I felt like all my sleepiness had gone in an instant.
I rushed to the bathroom and I swear.. this is the fastest bath I'd ever had. Instead of an hour, I just stayed in the bathroom for 5 minutes. My grandmother is my Mom's aunt but we are so close to her. We call her Nanay.
Nanay hates waiting so you better not be late or you'll be bitten by a giant ant. (If you're asian, you'll know what type of ant it is.)
After preparing myself, I almost flew out of my room just to reach the living room.
I hugged her immediately. The hug just lasted for a few seconds.
Nanay
You silly kid. Its been 5 years since I last saw you. Why aren't you going at my house every vacation?
Shienna Kim
(fake cough) Erm.. Well, I've been busy with my studies that I can't even have a vacation.
Mommy Shiela
Ahh that's what I am telling you Ma. She can't even give time for relationships.
Nanay
Take it easy sweetheart. Education must be important,but you should prioritize your health also.
Shienna Kim
(nods) Uhh-hmm. Wait.. I'll just prepare snacks for you.
Mommy Shiela
No need, let me do it.
My mom left to the kitchen leaving with me with Nanay.
I heard a cough behind me so I turned around. I was taken aback when I saw Jackson.
Shienna Kim
(huh? Is he here the whole time?)
Jackson Jung
Won't you say hi to me?
Shienna Kim
O-oh.. I didn't notice you there..
Nanay
I forgot to mention to you that he came with me here
Nanay
I'l leave you to alone here. I'll go to your Mom.
I want to stop her from leaving me but its useless. I can't move my body.
Shienna Kim
(This is awkward.)
Jackson Jung
Are you okay with standing?
I flinch just by hearing his voice. I slowly sat on the sofa and took a quick glance at him but it is enough for me to examine his features. He looks more mature and more handsome.
Shienna Kim
U-uhm... H-how are you?
It was my phone. I picked it up and saw that it my was my friend.
Kaiden
📱: Where are you Nana?
Shienna Kim
At my house of course, why?
Kaiden
📱: I thought you'll be going here at my house..
I suddenly remembered that I promised him yesterday that I'll go there.
Shienna Kim
Oh.. Sorry I can't. My nanay is here.
Kaiden
📱: Oh? She is there? Then I'll go there.. I miss Nanay no..
Shienna Kim
Hey! Since when did you call her Nanay- *toot toot toot
Shienna Kim
(hiss) That jerk...
Episode 3
Jackson Jung
Is that your boyfriend?
Shienna Kim
(shakes head) O-of course not!
Jackson Jung
You sounded so defensive so I assume he is your boyfriend
Shienna Kim
Your good at assuming things.
Shienna Kim
He is just my friend. Stop assuming things.
Shienna Kim
Don't you remember anything?
He looked at me confusely.
Jackson Jung
Remember what?
Shienna Kim
Uhm.. 5 years ago.. you said-
I was cut off when someone burst through the door.
Shienna Kim
(I want to hit someone right now. Please give me patience.)
Kaiden
Hi Nana! Oh Kuya Jackson you're also here!
Jackson Jung
Ah its just you.
Kaiden
How mean! Don't you miss me Kuya?
I took the throw pillow and was about to him when Mommy and Nanay got out from the kitchen.
Kaiden run towards Nanay and hugged her.
Kaiden
I miss you Nanay! Nana is bullying me! (pouts)
Nanay
Sshh. Don't do that again Nana or I'll spank you.
Shienna Kim
(What a baby!)
Mommy Shiela
I alread yprepared snacks. Here..
Mom put the snacks on the center table and we started eating.
Mommy Shiela
So, Jackson do you have a girlfriend now?
Shienna Kim
(Please say no...)
Jackson Jung
No. I don't have time for that.
Nanay
I am always saying that he should already get a girlfriend. He is already 28.
Nanay
How about you Kaiden? Do you have a girlfriend already?
Kaiden
I don't have a girlfriend.
Nanay
Why? You're already 22 right?
Kaiden
Yeah but Nana doesn't have a boyfriend. I don't want her to be alone.
Kaiden
Of course not! She is a bully! Its just that if I get a girlfriend, then she won't have a handsome friend anymore!
Shienna Kim
Oh wow.. Thank you for looking out for me. (sarcastic tone)
Mommy Shiela
(sighs) These two can't be together. They can't even last a minute without fighting.
Nanay
Oh that's right.. Hhahaha
We stayed there for a few minutes until Kaiden decide to go home.
Nanay
We will be staying here for a few days so feel free to visit here okay?
Kaiden
Yes Nanay I will! Bye Tita Shiela, Kuya Jacks, and...
I arched an eyebrow at him.
Kaiden
Ehehe I'll go now. Bye everyone!
Mommy Shiela
Your Kuya Jackson wants to go to the court. You should accompany him.
Shienna Kim
(Kuya my ***.)
Shienna Kim
Yes Mom. Let's go, KUYA..
