"Oy, nandito pala si Von," mapang-asar na sinabi ng magaling kong kaibigan.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmNUa6HdTes
It's not that I'm averting to cross our path. I just need peace of mind. But, how can I be able to achieve that, when there's this woman, who puts effort to make a day unusual? Ah! I'm so dead.

"Hi, Ran," he said, hesitant.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo1IpTYPKAE
I just nodded. Naupo rin naman siya sa tabi ko habang ang dalagita ay panay ang ngisi habang nakikita akong nahihirapan sa situwasyon. Next minute fled, abala sa pag-uusap ang dalawa at 'di nakalampas sa mga mata ko ang palihim na pagsulyap ng lalaking nasa tabi ko. Hindi ko na lang din inabala dahil baka masayang lang ang oras, I just scrolled down when I saw a photo of Khan having a girl beside him. My heart skipped a bit.

"Ran, you okay?" agad na tanong ni Von sa akin.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbASoK16u83
I nodded, gingerly. But I doubt they would believe it. Basi pa lang sa ekspresyon ko, ay halata nang hindi talaga ako okay. The audacity of this man asks me if I was okay? How dare him! After he cheated on me for months. Makabili nga ng pagmumukhang iyan. Ang kapal, e.

"Oh, my gosh!" agad na tinuran ni Roxianne, habang abala ako sa pag-divert ng aking atensiyon sa ibang bagay. I think she knew it na rin.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9b1HpGj2NI
I glanced at her. She gives me a teasing smile. I take a deep breath before rearranging my thoughts. Baka kasama iyon ng mga kapatid niya. That was just a picture. A picture. Mas lalo akong naiinis nang maalala ang nakita kanina.

Ilang oras lang ay nauna na rin kaming umalis, agad din namang lumisan ang magaling kong ex. I wonder kung bakit. Sa bagay, ilang taon na rin naman since naging kami. The rest is history.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLsysVNGVWG
"I never thought Khan would show that kind of thing," Roxianne says and continued, "did he tell you about it, didn't he?"
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIid6nEbIwP
I shake my head. "Let's just forget it. Besides, hindi naman kami. At hindi magiging kami."
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz7BeKFNyWa
She rolls her eyes, sighing. "Ewan ko sa 'yo, Ran. Kung ako sa 'yo, aminin ko na lang ang feelings ko bago pa ako magsisi sa huli."
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnMJbMkU7SA
"What feelings?" I laugh.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0z2wnvZtW
"Surely, you're fond of secluding it," she says, disappointed.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2qS6siaHCl
Nang makauwi sa bahay, buti at nakauwi na rin naman ang kapatid ko. Unang bumungad sa akin ang nakakainis niyang tingin. Sa inis ko ay naibato ko tuloy siya ng unan. Tumawa naman ang kurimaw. Such a dick.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlyZ2LveKvQ
"Kumain ka na?" he asks.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkzALd1XPox
"Tapos na," I lie.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzMxaJT23ld
But my stomach growls. Darn it.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0v74c2M0xv
He sneers. "Hey, follow me."
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeuAqdO7TIC
"Wait—" He grabs my hand and drag me into the kitchen. "You can take it off."
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY6t0nlDlkk
Agad din naman niyang inalis ang kamay. In fairness, hindi na tamad ang isang 'to. May nakita akong hinanda siyang ulam. He really grown up to be a man. Couldn't be proud of him.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4wZ9Lo9SKj
"Khan texted me yesterday..." he begins.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFpUDdgwTSM
The fork hang in my mouth. I leer my sight at him, waiting for him to proceed. My neurons are alive again.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdHE8Nju7nZ
He prances a few feet, and leans in the sink. "Sinabi niya sa akin na pupunta raw kayo ng Bohol next week."
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQC6LJmndL
Nabitawan ko ang fork. "What?"
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGgd5g9ev3s
He chuckles. Jerk.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwHrBoL3bmC
"I wouldn't thought you will get this far..." He swallows a raspberry, staring at me in a mischievous way.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKmJ7qrCRTi
I just gave him a flaming glare before I proceed swallowing my food.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw1c7BfOJ7u
The audacity! Bakit next week? Gosh! Next week na ang exams namin. Ang hilig talaga niyang mag-ditch ng examination day. Half-half pa naman ang exam namin. Kainis kasing matandang 'yon, e. Gano'n na siguro 'pag matanda na, nagiging ulyanin. Pero 'di ko naman nilalahat. Just some of them.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu5gmReW3oD
"And Khan said..." he manages to even look at me in the eye. "Doon daw muna kayo for a couple of weeks."
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqK5WZUDBq3
Lumuwa ang panga ko. Bigla tuloy akong nabilaukan. The words aren't processing well.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5qQhj2iIrH
He smirks. "You okay?"
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNAjZQ6A0qU
Nilagok ko ang isang basong tubig. Halos mahingal na ako pero 'di bale na. But wait—staying? There? For weeks? What got to his mind thinking about it? I need to talk to him.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbvXYnAnOeL
"Hoy, hindi mo na tatapusin ang pagkain mo?" mapang-asar niyang tanong.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzQmtMCUGZh
"Swallow them! I don't buy it," iyamot kong sinabi, at kapagkuwan ay mabilis na tumulak papunta sa loob ng aking silid.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmXqvgjWdam
I dial Khan's cell. It rang twice. Thrice. And even fourth times, before he picked it up. This man is getting into my nerves.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnvLJqJOe3I
"Hey. 'Sup?" he greets.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡStcK6QZcN6
'Sup your ass.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTDAae1gRge
"Khan, what are these informations you told about my brother?" I ask.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdAv9qAB4Pn
"What information?"
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlNKoMdsh5F
"Neil told me about the trip. And there's something you forgot to tell me about."
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkYHx3pqigt
"Huh? I-I'm confused. Enlighten me."
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡls1SwZ2Et2
"You told him that we'll stay there for weeks."
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRnWPghaURk
He laughs. "Oh, is that it?"
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4RrfW802Dm
"Yes," I bark.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM2s9oAhcda
"Honey, I said "I am," I didn't say you'll stay with me. Unless you like it."
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEj0rgi8eYL
Ugh! I'm going to beat that asshole.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAGXhtw5H4w
"Ah, gano'n ba? I'm sorry for the misunderstanding," I apologize.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzwg9KHmRp8
"It's fine. Just tell him about it," he replies.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdNtVQf0u1x
"I will. Sorry again." I hang up the call, and scurry to grab my brother's collar. But he isn't around. I wonder where he is now, after he found out that I will going to know about these misinformations he just gave me.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5YavQkJzD
"Neil. You can't play your PS6," I yell.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUtohFETBPq
"I have it in here," he says through the intercom.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiiHTboN6s5
Ugh! Such a lunatic.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVaJkzj77Au
After my brother ruined my day, I went to UP Diliman. I don't know whether Khan is still in there or he's already got out. But as I caught his car a few feet away, I march onto the concrete floor until I saw him leaning against the tree.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXWkEPEtvqT
I was about to speak when I saw him with a girl. I halt as my mouth stiffens. I don't know whether should I run or stay in my position.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJHm91q2wZn
"I think she already knew about us..." I overheard from the lady.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5909K54PBQ
Khan chuckles. "She knew nothing. Trust me."
