"Oy, nandito pala si Von," mapang-asar na sinabi ng magaling kong kaibigan.
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZnrBHpVfB
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.
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU0laFmmusg
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.
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhKcKuW8kiu
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.
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG9KNNGRUJ2
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.
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ6l1wusJLQ
"I never thought Khan would show that kind of thing," Roxianne says and continued, "did he tell you about it, didn't he?"
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkXx5JEOIVA
I shake my head. "Let's just forget it. Besides, hindi naman kami. At hindi magiging kami."
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9h3zCTYShL
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."
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdlGHKC8Nvo
"What feelings?" I laugh.
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuVVkLsJ0fF
"Surely, you're fond of secluding it," she says, disappointed.
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvbrYe4sGgI
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.
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvspefaP33i
"Kumain ka na?" he asks.
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJBegcZHui6
"Tapos na," I lie.
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGyZWzUeTnh
But my stomach growls. Darn it.
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZexUBiT4Co
He sneers. "Hey, follow me."
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJHg0eTV7RZ
"Wait—" He grabs my hand and drag me into the kitchen. "You can take it off."
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8tNKb51VDe
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.
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3piH2s1NcC
"Khan texted me yesterday..." he begins.
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9yhnOPgLKB
The fork hang in my mouth. I leer my sight at him, waiting for him to proceed. My neurons are alive again.
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg2bWHjLTHX
He prances a few feet, and leans in the sink. "Sinabi niya sa akin na pupunta raw kayo ng Bohol next week."
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUr8AOMBQ6K
Nabitawan ko ang fork. "What?"
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCuMphiuA67
He chuckles. Jerk.
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn9SStM5xqd
"I wouldn't thought you will get this far..." He swallows a raspberry, staring at me in a mischievous way.
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTZKRFCibYj
I just gave him a flaming glare before I proceed swallowing my food.
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOvdhtYWYIk
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.
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3kHcFa8u4t
"And Khan said..." he manages to even look at me in the eye. "Doon daw muna kayo for a couple of weeks."
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvCJjQnxTa3
Lumuwa ang panga ko. Bigla tuloy akong nabilaukan. The words aren't processing well.
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡogWO4pznZI
He smirks. "You okay?"
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfKV3u754HP
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.
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw8f6uEdiii
"Hoy, hindi mo na tatapusin ang pagkain mo?" mapang-asar niyang tanong.
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCWrrkKWBct
"Swallow them! I don't buy it," iyamot kong sinabi, at kapagkuwan ay mabilis na tumulak papunta sa loob ng aking silid.
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgMN9HAEd8H
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.
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ8hkbwTeWT
"Hey. 'Sup?" he greets.
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEgnmbwIz7K
'Sup your ass.
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqse8A8rzhw
"Khan, what are these informations you told about my brother?" I ask.
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTF0jlyLO1C
"What information?"
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRUNkZltQhi
"Neil told me about the trip. And there's something you forgot to tell me about."
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2yARbk5cxw
"Huh? I-I'm confused. Enlighten me."
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkQ2tNBU5aH
"You told him that we'll stay there for weeks."
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7h7TsmZJz
He laughs. "Oh, is that it?"
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7pgHmKKqSw
"Yes," I bark.
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxYLFtjZf5u
"Honey, I said "I am," I didn't say you'll stay with me. Unless you like it."
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9nHKrEOOdV
Ugh! I'm going to beat that asshole.
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ke40gRSro
"Ah, gano'n ba? I'm sorry for the misunderstanding," I apologize.
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq5VcMeB7Cv
"It's fine. Just tell him about it," he replies.
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8cQdGxwMXa
"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.
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdp04PeZomY
"Neil. You can't play your PS6," I yell.
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmW1Y9X1Dcv
"I have it in here," he says through the intercom.
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtb2h08eEbo
Ugh! Such a lunatic.
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKblywMZX49
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.
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkxRo9mwUc4
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.
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRXdb1d8tqx
"I think she already knew about us..." I overheard from the lady.
330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfE8v6E0ELX
Khan chuckles. "She knew nothing. Trust me."
