can they still be friends?

♪ let's admit we made a mistake,
but can we still be friends?
heartbreak's never easy to take,
but can we still be friends?
it's a strange, sad affair
sometimes seems like we just don't care
don't waste time feeling hurt
we've been through hell together
.

(going back to 4.11 entry...)
forgiveness is what she wanted for so long. she had forgiven him, so why can't he? i see no logic. he had hurt her as well.
her
goodnight... i'll call you again tomorrow.
him
don't call!!
her
i'm sorry... bye
.
good thing, this girl was given so much patience. the next day, as she promised him...
her
hello?
him
ano na naman?! umagang umaga!!!
her
1pm na po... kain ka na ha. tawag ako ulit. bye
.
that night it was him who called her. he's asking her out. confused, she asked her why, "i thought you don't wanna see me again?". silence for a few seconds, then he said, "i just felt the need to talk to you, maybe i can forgive you. but this would be the last. i promise. we'll just see if we can now be friends". by 9:30pm, he's on the door.
her
tara!
him
o, saan ka pupunta? (he parked his car 9meters away)
her
sira ulo ka pa rin (laughs).
it's like nothing happened. their conversation was very casual. they talked about college life, friends, no intimate talks. she was happy seeing her ex without hatred. she knew [and prayed] that by the end of the night, she'll be forgiven. but she remembered her boyfriend, can he forgive her too? sigh.
.
meanwhile, her stomach could no longer hide the truth...
her
ui, burger machine oh. libre mo ko. go!
him
(laughs) iba nalang. dun kaya? ( pointing to an expensive resto)
her
yabang ka pa rin.
.
after they ate (forgot the place), he drove him home. feeling dizzy (it's almost midnight), they were both silent for a few minutes which was a strange thing. she almost fell asleep.
him
i have forgiven you
__shocked. really shocked. she wanted to cry. she'd been waiting for that the whole time they're together. that's all she wanted to hear from him. just that.__
her
i thought you would never forgive me. thank you.
him
maybe we can be friends after two years. i still need time to find myself. i'm not yet ready. but, like i've said, i'm not mad at you anymore. i shouldn't be anyway. i'm glad you're happy now.
her
thank you. so bye? hmmmnn... till we meet again after two years.ü ciao! =p
.
no sad goodbye, no tears, no pain, no guilt.
that's how the night ended. casual goodbye. it was as if they will meet again the next day. as if two years is almost over. but that's ok. atleast, they had forgiven each other now. this could be the happiest day for her. she believes that it wasn't just a chance they took, it's the answer to her prayer. she'll never regret this because there's a friendship that was saved, minds that had peace, and a broken heart that was fixed. most importantly, she knows that in her heart, there is someone she can never take away, and that's her boyfriend. she's not sure when and how he can forgive her, but she's willing to wait, like what she did with her ex. her boyfriend may not understand this now, but there's always a time for everything.
.
good morning.ü
