"Oy, nandito pala si Von," mapang-asar na sinabi ng magaling kong kaibigan.
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlwedFYg6xz
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.
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMKhL3DNBN6
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.
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqZMFPKkbVb
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.
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡifmCrzl1fI
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.
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3amdrnfkMR
"I never thought Khan would show that kind of thing," Roxianne says and continued, "did he tell you about it, didn't he?"
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyEYvKsEJFc
I shake my head. "Let's just forget it. Besides, hindi naman kami. At hindi magiging kami."
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe2SMWu7uRC
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."
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZW5xpAWCw0
"What feelings?" I laugh.
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw9TyD1yuVa
"Surely, you're fond of secluding it," she says, disappointed.
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpSbvqqHUd4
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.
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtY5j5YmVk9
"Kumain ka na?" he asks.
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNT47SxW9M5
"Tapos na," I lie.
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3R3m95dZAF
But my stomach growls. Darn it.
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡottFi3EvHr
He sneers. "Hey, follow me."
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7NkzRjQ7VS
"Wait—" He grabs my hand and drag me into the kitchen. "You can take it off."
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLrWIXHObxQ
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.
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO3yNw5U9nA
"Khan texted me yesterday..." he begins.
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCNo0qbWprC
The fork hang in my mouth. I leer my sight at him, waiting for him to proceed. My neurons are alive again.
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjaY1o5cZZA
He prances a few feet, and leans in the sink. "Sinabi niya sa akin na pupunta raw kayo ng Bohol next week."
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdvoxXNi4dp
Nabitawan ko ang fork. "What?"
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTUw13Q0Pun
He chuckles. Jerk.
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtwUvJf49Zj
"I wouldn't thought you will get this far..." He swallows a raspberry, staring at me in a mischievous way.
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtSErVdcXcZ
I just gave him a flaming glare before I proceed swallowing my food.
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcdbRklfZHo
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.
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Tn303SrBn
"And Khan said..." he manages to even look at me in the eye. "Doon daw muna kayo for a couple of weeks."
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡStpEQ49bWP
Lumuwa ang panga ko. Bigla tuloy akong nabilaukan. The words aren't processing well.
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ4x20l8GoP
He smirks. "You okay?"
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdm3UmzXnHW
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.
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbk0DEyAKRy
"Hoy, hindi mo na tatapusin ang pagkain mo?" mapang-asar niyang tanong.
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp9kX2WOpvE
"Swallow them! I don't buy it," iyamot kong sinabi, at kapagkuwan ay mabilis na tumulak papunta sa loob ng aking silid.
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ5ve7ksRda
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.
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgivwmqbk4v
"Hey. 'Sup?" he greets.
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8N35USVbm4
'Sup your ass.
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVV8KMKFa3D
"Khan, what are these informations you told about my brother?" I ask.
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYk6eOQKt39
"What information?"
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd2P26b0GRY
"Neil told me about the trip. And there's something you forgot to tell me about."
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPI7gu1N5tN
"Huh? I-I'm confused. Enlighten me."
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2sIVJlrZuJ
"You told him that we'll stay there for weeks."
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkfMZvjYSvY
He laughs. "Oh, is that it?"
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhkHizPxd45
"Yes," I bark.
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCpdeqhPvE1
"Honey, I said "I am," I didn't say you'll stay with me. Unless you like it."
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnMJ71hereY
Ugh! I'm going to beat that asshole.
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡckm6PxsqJ4
"Ah, gano'n ba? I'm sorry for the misunderstanding," I apologize.
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPNtXAfGuoA
"It's fine. Just tell him about it," he replies.
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqCUIkO5GMU
"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.
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXZIqsYLLaj
"Neil. You can't play your PS6," I yell.
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmqvD6Cz3Tc
"I have it in here," he says through the intercom.
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeuBnrJcGCC
Ugh! Such a lunatic.
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBek7TFFRdG
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.
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf5RZFU2AYR
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.
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVlDbAtNOct
"I think she already knew about us..." I overheard from the lady.
255Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSygMJarwmc
Khan chuckles. "She knew nothing. Trust me."
