I Accidentally Fell in Love Again

Sabi nila, "Love is sweeter the second time around."
Sabi ko, scam 'yon. Marketing strategy lang 'yan ng universe para utuin tayong masaktan ulit.
Falling in love for the first time? That’s easy. It’s instinct. Para siyang pag-inom ng tubig kapag uhaw ka. You don’t think about it; you just do it because your body screams that you need it. You dive in headfirst, eyes closed, unaware that the pool is actually empty and you’re about to concuss yourself on the concrete floor of reality.
Pero ang mainlove again? That’s a completely different animal.
Falling in love again is not instinct. It’s a choice. And honestly? It’s a stupid choice. Parang alam mo nang sira 'yung rollercoaster, nakita mo nang may tumalsik na turnilyo noong last ride mo, pero pipila ka pa rin kasi, "Uy, ang saya sumigaw, 'di ba?"
Hi, ako nga pala si Ethan. 23 years old. Graphic designer by day, professional overthinker by night. At kung tatanungin mo ako kung kumusta ang love life ko, ang sagot ko ay simple: Wala. At gusto ko manatiling ganoon.
Why? Kasi pagod na ako. Not the physical kind of tired—hindi 'yung pagod na makukuha mo after a 12-hour shift or 'yung pagod sa pila ng MRT sa North Avenue. I’m talking about soul-deep exhaustion. 'Yung pagod na mapapabuntong-hininga ka na lang bigla habang naghuhugas ng plato kasi naalala mo kung paano ka niya tinawag na "babe" noon, tapos ngayon, "stranger" na lang kayo sa Facebook friends list ng isa’t isa.
