"Oy, nandito pala si Von," mapang-asar na sinabi ng magaling kong kaibigan.
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTbQs2OAdub
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.
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTassQuhHor
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.
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQsaAzBLYqS
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.
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7cE25i9bIO
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.
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNLpUib1QeS
"I never thought Khan would show that kind of thing," Roxianne says and continued, "did he tell you about it, didn't he?"
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV5NSMVFhth
I shake my head. "Let's just forget it. Besides, hindi naman kami. At hindi magiging kami."
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67cf5xuRDT
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."
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtej5RI4jht
"What feelings?" I laugh.
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHxe2j64Jau
"Surely, you're fond of secluding it," she says, disappointed.
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8w3mrS1fwg
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.
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuTrkAaAHBv
"Kumain ka na?" he asks.
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAzYPvkNvOq
"Tapos na," I lie.
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8QUcezSGXf
But my stomach growls. Darn it.
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAOvzxxj673
He sneers. "Hey, follow me."
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOkJexYtDqJ
"Wait—" He grabs my hand and drag me into the kitchen. "You can take it off."
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl0swOK4blF
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.
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgEVQuMnJZw
"Khan texted me yesterday..." he begins.
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFbfrta4MEi
The fork hang in my mouth. I leer my sight at him, waiting for him to proceed. My neurons are alive again.
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDjOOtoBb90
He prances a few feet, and leans in the sink. "Sinabi niya sa akin na pupunta raw kayo ng Bohol next week."
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp8AzkKMmkx
Nabitawan ko ang fork. "What?"
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6ngCqqnvL
He chuckles. Jerk.
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5d041xWgt7
"I wouldn't thought you will get this far..." He swallows a raspberry, staring at me in a mischievous way.
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHOLnu1URSx
I just gave him a flaming glare before I proceed swallowing my food.
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Z1xdnmHYi
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.
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ37GDeUNoDB
"And Khan said..." he manages to even look at me in the eye. "Doon daw muna kayo for a couple of weeks."
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqvKCDpAat6
Lumuwa ang panga ko. Bigla tuloy akong nabilaukan. The words aren't processing well.
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Bb3C4OPQ6
He smirks. "You okay?"
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWI2xCXYSsP
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.
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn59KOn6jVR
"Hoy, hindi mo na tatapusin ang pagkain mo?" mapang-asar niyang tanong.
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Z4JH7N2LO
"Swallow them! I don't buy it," iyamot kong sinabi, at kapagkuwan ay mabilis na tumulak papunta sa loob ng aking silid.
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfeSyJSwe7L
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.
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZQ6d6XmkVK
"Hey. 'Sup?" he greets.
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFeqpNe2b49
'Sup your ass.
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0pWaoXBGwy
"Khan, what are these informations you told about my brother?" I ask.
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuOI2rhqXr9
"What information?"
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4s8itm4KBT
"Neil told me about the trip. And there's something you forgot to tell me about."
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdjiWsKOqOI
"Huh? I-I'm confused. Enlighten me."
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEPXtO4r719
"You told him that we'll stay there for weeks."
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG93tS27mk2
He laughs. "Oh, is that it?"
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq3ACOvyGtU
"Yes," I bark.
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Emsx5gl7I
"Honey, I said "I am," I didn't say you'll stay with me. Unless you like it."
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7rxVg4slp4
Ugh! I'm going to beat that asshole.
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcADUd3AJMp
"Ah, gano'n ba? I'm sorry for the misunderstanding," I apologize.
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiMzqw5B27R
"It's fine. Just tell him about it," he replies.
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡylpUUxyala
"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.
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYXZIbLgOVi
"Neil. You can't play your PS6," I yell.
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmqt7rQOme1
"I have it in here," he says through the intercom.
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtEZypBkyqK
Ugh! Such a lunatic.
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdLfDAwl61h
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.
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEnc2zFOf1B
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.
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU89Yhuy2wV
"I think she already knew about us..." I overheard from the lady.
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8nF3ynUebC
Khan chuckles. "She knew nothing. Trust me."
