Kristina hugged me back and said, "You finally... remembered me."
"I told you I'd never forget you, right? That I'd always come running back to find you?" I was crying as well as I continued, "Sorry it took me years."
"It's fine." Kristina smiled
I stood up and walked towards Abby, she closes her eyes as she braces herself for the harsh things I'll say but in the end, I patted her head gently, I said, "Thank you Abby. And sorry, I wasn't able to notice you until now."
Abby left with Kevin without saying anything else.
I walked Kristina back home as I held her hands, I said, "It's a shame that I have to leave you again."
"Do you really have to?"
I nodded
"Then, instead, don't forget to write and be sure you'll come back for me ne

Only the Biology class seems to keep him interested enough to actually write notes. I found myself smiling. It was a plan from our childhood.

She was wearing a jumper skirt with her pastel shirt and mismatched socks that she was trying to hide.She also had her glasses on as she searches the room for me.I was caught off guard when she smiled at me. She was searching the room and she smiled at me like that, she waves her hand frantically.I unconciously waved back at her but the moment I realized it, I took my hand down.She sat down beside me and said, "I made it just in time! I woke up really late. Ah, sorry I'm talking too much-"I cut her off as I fixes her fringe in place, "Your bangs look cute. Goodmorning."She turns red and shifts the conversation topic, "You don't have your uniform yet?"I lied, "Yeah, I haven't got my uniform yet.""Mine too,

I'm okay now, it's just, I'm claustrophobic." she replied, "It's something from a long time ago that haunts me everytime I'm in an enclosed small space.""Is that why you stopped playing hide and seek?"She pauses and her voice sounded a little shaky as she looks at me, "Yeah, I just thought someone would find me no matter where I hide but that one day, I got stucked in the wardrobe and no on found me until the next day."I don't know why but her story seems to affect me to the core, my chest tightens at the thought of it.

Angelo Cruz POVI remembered it so clearly like it was only yesterday... I heard Kristina's voice from our past. She was wearing her hair in a messy pigtail and protested as we were walking around, "Hey! Wait up Angelo.... My feet aches."I remembered how I smiled and said, "I'll carry you, just hop on my back."Kristina would stare into the sky as I carry her on my back and point out at the clouds saying things like, "Wow, I wonder what the clouds taste like."I would always laugh and say, "Probably like water.""Yep probably or like a candy."We would talks about silly things and laugh at silly jokes as I carried her all the way back then we stopped by the tree where Kristina likes to climb all the time. A girl appeared before us that day.She had a long and flowy hair and pastel dress complimenting her pinkish skintone

Christina Abby Reyes POVKevin was still okay after some shots, I remarked, "I take it that you're used to social meetings, what? Your parents forced you to attend?""No." Kevin replied, "My parents died. I was required to attend and most of them involves drinking, I figured, it's one of the easiest technique to get into their comfort zones and I just kinda got used to it.""Why did you really come?""I'm heartbroken?""No. I can see through people's lies you know?" I continued, "I know you have a reason for coming.""Do you know why I gave up?"I gulped and asked, "Why?""Because I saw Kristina... so happy and heartbroken and sad and genuine.

My Sweet Mistake Chapter 35: "The truth"
Angelo Cruz POVKevin's finally giving up... he must've really liked Kristina, probably more than I do because he can actually let her go and be happy and on the other hand, I can't. I'm sorry for being selfish until the end, Kristina.But that line... it bothered me. What Kristina had said earlier, "I'll be your shield so don't worry too much, you're not alone. You never were."It's what the girl from my childhood would always say. It's the first thing she said when we met at that old abandoned house. I ran away from home. I remembered. How did she know those exact words and Abby never once told me that after all these years?It's the exact lines. The exact reason. Her whole family says it.Just before I go to Kristina, Ashley grabbed my hand and dragged me far away from the venue, she was furious. I guess she figured it all out. I asked even though I think I k

Angelo Cruz POVI immediately pulled away, surprised as Abby kissed me, I protested, "Stop acting like a kid. We're not kids anymore, Abby.""If... I wasn't the girl from your childhood memories... then wouldn't you like me?" Abby askedI flinched as I honestly said, "I... ever since, I only had one special girl in my heart and it was you.""Was." Abby emphasized"Was." I confirmed, "You're someone special to me and you always will be. For that, I will be forever thankful for you being there Abby but you have to let me go.""Why? You know you're bad for Kristina, all you do is hurt her but can you let her go? Can you let her go and find happiness with someone else?" Abby asksI... wasn't able to say anything back. I...couldn't?There was a time that we were happy. We really were but as my memories bet
My Sweet Mistake Chapter 33: "Broken hearts club"
Kevin Langdon POVAs soon as I saw Kristina that happy on the dance floor, it broke my heart, it just kept reminding me just how much Angelo has me beat. Abby went to the bathroom, she must've felt the same way as I did so I followed her. She locked the door and I waited for her outside the girl's bathroom.I heard her sniffling. Abby's obviously just leaning by the bathroom door. I knocked and said, "You okay?"Abby immediately went outside and denied, "I just needed to freshen up."I gave her a tissue and said, "Well, welcome to the broken hearts club.""It's okay." Her eyes gloomed a little, "I've been at it since the beginning."Abby fixed her mascara and kept her composure, she asked, "Don't you hate me as well? I mean, the girl of your dreams obviously does.""I.." I paused and chuckled, "Honestly, I don't. I told m
My Sweet Mistake Chapter 32: "Better than Revenge"
Christina Abby Reyes POVI saw Angelo's cold eyes once again. Did he really hate me that much that no matter how long I stay with him, Kristina's the only one he sets his eyes upon? Who am I kidding, if I was him, I'd probably hate myself too.I stole them of their love story after all.I knew sooner or later he'd figure it out but sorry, I planted fake memories throughout the years... I never intend to pretend...but in every day, Angelo would call me by her name and I would always get my hopes up but it turns out, I'm not the Kristina he's been looking for.I play along with what he remembers.It's years, Kristina. Not even you can dig up his real memories. They're gone forever. In the end, I will be the one beside him.Angelo looks at me even more confused as he continued to talk to Kristina. I knew when I arrived, their conversation would be about
My Sweet Mistake Chapter 31: "How I lost him"
Kristina Valdez POVI remember it all too well. I slept with thoughts of the past. No matter why she- Abby- did it, she still pretended to be me and that cost me Angelo. It cost me my only friend. I have never felt so alone and all these years, I kept believing that I was just someone you can toss aside. Angelo and my dad left leaving me with my thoughts. I always wondered that maybe i wasn't enough.10 years ago, huh?... I can't believe it's been that long. I remembered the day Angelo left me in the closet there at my birthday with nothing but a birthday box to cling to. I heard they moved to America for good but I was hoping one day he'd come back.I still kept the unsent letters. I never got their address so I just kept writing letters without ever sending them.I always made excuses for him. I told myself that maybe Angelo was busy making new friends or busy studying to be a doct
