"Oy, nandito pala si Von," mapang-asar na sinabi ng magaling kong kaibigan.
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUrznxOx4QX
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.
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnEHko6nKbe
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.
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡightPHzEhL
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.
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk0xyQJ0n4J
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.
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAjf3rS3IZA
"I never thought Khan would show that kind of thing," Roxianne says and continued, "did he tell you about it, didn't he?"
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ3nOxqq2QA
I shake my head. "Let's just forget it. Besides, hindi naman kami. At hindi magiging kami."
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPQCaZXbUyF
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."
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQ8HVBbKHX
"What feelings?" I laugh.
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyp3GwZYVvI
"Surely, you're fond of secluding it," she says, disappointed.
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR2xCt91kxj
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.
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5rgREZcMm7
"Kumain ka na?" he asks.
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmCuRFz5Ygp
"Tapos na," I lie.
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6hDs6vVQe0
But my stomach growls. Darn it.
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE0n5CehlTN
He sneers. "Hey, follow me."
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP6RivdXOnB
"Wait—" He grabs my hand and drag me into the kitchen. "You can take it off."
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv87hfopK21
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.
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNcKKFYFAoM
"Khan texted me yesterday..." he begins.
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2WuUoDOVUI
The fork hang in my mouth. I leer my sight at him, waiting for him to proceed. My neurons are alive again.
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuOwokkkFoN
He prances a few feet, and leans in the sink. "Sinabi niya sa akin na pupunta raw kayo ng Bohol next week."
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvMZp5n6GeA
Nabitawan ko ang fork. "What?"
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZcXhyoz8EN
He chuckles. Jerk.
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlR4u9bshmH
"I wouldn't thought you will get this far..." He swallows a raspberry, staring at me in a mischievous way.
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh49n5as40r
I just gave him a flaming glare before I proceed swallowing my food.
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡns380xFDv6
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.
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTeNBZZmVZa
"And Khan said..." he manages to even look at me in the eye. "Doon daw muna kayo for a couple of weeks."
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7aJy3BUX1y
Lumuwa ang panga ko. Bigla tuloy akong nabilaukan. The words aren't processing well.
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvMj2ywS7qv
He smirks. "You okay?"
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeagtVfJ3WA
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.
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrPD2SLG8EX
"Hoy, hindi mo na tatapusin ang pagkain mo?" mapang-asar niyang tanong.
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL1jUK4Hn2y
"Swallow them! I don't buy it," iyamot kong sinabi, at kapagkuwan ay mabilis na tumulak papunta sa loob ng aking silid.
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1cZmHmNRiO
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.
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡikjZS9zEEN
"Hey. 'Sup?" he greets.
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn9JDDLR0TP
'Sup your ass.
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7BZTYlKP8T
"Khan, what are these informations you told about my brother?" I ask.
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFoJA43XmhV
"What information?"
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHwJrNOoTGS
"Neil told me about the trip. And there's something you forgot to tell me about."
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt8n4lkp5p4
"Huh? I-I'm confused. Enlighten me."
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa1SU5gBeCq
"You told him that we'll stay there for weeks."
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAaqf7BLngI
He laughs. "Oh, is that it?"
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5N4hi3z5DP
"Yes," I bark.
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ00746sebzD
"Honey, I said "I am," I didn't say you'll stay with me. Unless you like it."
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS5inGjtyHl
Ugh! I'm going to beat that asshole.
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJGUPHUJjVh
"Ah, gano'n ba? I'm sorry for the misunderstanding," I apologize.
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg3Zq2xj03B
"It's fine. Just tell him about it," he replies.
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡScQJS2uu7e
"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.
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwKq8IUphqR
"Neil. You can't play your PS6," I yell.
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVsJh4LANip
"I have it in here," he says through the intercom.
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHM0aWIhE2z
Ugh! Such a lunatic.
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBtFysvI0Lt
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.
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡomr0SR5Z8O
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.
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeT9QpGdnBK
"I think she already knew about us..." I overheard from the lady.
266Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡveCGDKWPcK
Khan chuckles. "She knew nothing. Trust me."
