Soooorry po sa late update!

_______.

Joan

Its 9 in the evening.

Andito ako sa harap ng condo ni Jiro. I still have the card with me pero baka iba ang madatnan ko sa loob. Natatakot ako, masyadong masakit ang nadatnan ko kanina pati narin ang mga sinabi ni Jiro.

Huminga ako ng malalim at binuksan ang pinto.

"May plano ka pa palang umuwi" I look at the man who is sitting in the sofa.

"So saan kayo nagdate ni Arcus?" Sinara ko ang pinto bago humarap sakanya.

"Ayaw kong makipag-away Jiro"

"This is not a fight Joan" he didn't call me babe..

"I was just talking plain to you, and we had a deal Joan. I play according to our rules---

"Play, laro" natawa ako at napailing

"Yun lang naman lahat sayo eh,---- laro. Manhid ka ba Jiro o sadyang bulag lang?."

"Gusto kita. Mahal na kita dati pa,. Siguro akala mo biro lang lahat ng sinabi nina Mike sayo kasi yun rin naman ang gusto kong paniwalaan mo but that was before. I know where this is going at susulitin ko na. Mahal kita, and I've fallen more deeply to you every single day especially the motives you are showing me na parang gusto mo rin ako. That I have a big chance, pero wala, laro lang sayo lahat. Kanina, ng makita mo yung saamin ni Arcus, hindi mo man lang ako tinanong kung ano ang totoo? You jump into conclusions so naghanap karin agad ng iba. Or maybe you're just waiting for this moment just to get rid of me. Nagsasawa ka na ba? O sadyang ayaw mo na sa bakla at babae na naman ang hinahanap ng ari mo?" Huminga ako ng malalim. I think anytime I would pass out.

"So I guess deals over. Magpakasaya ka sa babae mo" kinuha ko ang mga bag ko at isinilid ang mga damit ko doon.

"You talk as if were in a relationship. Oo laro lang ang lahat, I made it clearly to you. You're just for an experience, and yeah maybe you're right, kailangan ko na ulit ng babae. Yun naman dapat diba? Wala ka namang ibang maibibugay saakin, just plain pleasure. Don't question me for the things I show to you, that was part of the play, you should have known that." Humarap ako sakanya.

"Yeah, sorry ah, I assume too much. By the way, salamat sa lahat Jiro. Fate did brought us together, but it ends here. Maybe this is also an eye-opener to me, to move on with my life especially my feelings for you. It is nice to have you as an accompany Mr. Marquez" nilahad ko ang kamay ko sa harap niya.

"Let's shake hand, ayaw ko namang magtapos tayo ng labag sa loob ng isa diba. Shake my hand Mr. Marquez, and everything is over" I waited for a seconds.

Dont shake please...

I smiled when he did.

"Good luck with your life Mr. Capillano" hinawakan ko ang kamay niya at ipinatong ang card niya doon.

"You too Mr. Marquez" kinuha ko na lahat ng gamit ko at umalis sa fairy tale ko.

Bawat bagay ay may hangganan, at tanggap ko kung hanggang dito nalang yung saamin.

Siguro kailangan ko nalang maging kuntento sa ala-alang naiwan niya saakin.

"Hello"

"Hello, who is this?"

"K-kuya....."

_________.

Jiro

Nilagok ko ang bote ng alak. I roam my eyes around the condo.

Ang tahimik.... Walang kahit anong ingay, walang Joan.

Im such a jerk, masyado akong nadala sa galit ko. That's my problem, when anger strikes me, I couldn't believe someone anymore.

Mas naniniwala ako sa unang pinaniwalaan ko, ang hirap na saaking ang maniwala sa bagong paliwanag.

Joan...

I know, hindi nagbibiro si Mike noon. Maybe I trust our rules and deals too much, at naging kampante akong walang malalabag.

He loves me

I know something is going on me, especially when Joan's around. I-i cant fucking explain it! I want to figure this out together with Joan, sinabi ko yan sa sarili ko. At ngayon, wala na siya, I dont know.

Fuck!

Ilang oras palang wala si Joan ay nangungulila na ako. What the fuck is wrong with me?!

What's with this feelings?!

I-i cant stop it

Joan......

___________.

Maaga akong pumasok kinabukasan.

I'm fucking tired... Wala akong ganang magtrabaho.

"Ey Marquez!" Hindi ko siya pinansin at nagpatuloy sa pagpirma ng mga papeles.

"Ohh, what happen to you bud? You have dark circles under your eyes, look at your hair? You looks shit Marquez" inangat ko ang tingin ko.

"Die fucker, umalis ka nga dito nakakadistorbo ka"

"So may problema ka nga, what is it this time?" Bumuntong hininga ako.

"Joan, he's gone"

"What the fuck--- for real?"

"Gago! Not literally gone, idiot!"

"Aw, sorry. So, ano naman yun saiyo? I thought you were just FRIENDS?"

"Fuck you Lauriel, really, fuck you"

"What? Ikaw mismo ang nagsabi nun, pero alam ko namang hindi totoo, come on bud, you know my relationship with Shane" right, the secretary.

"Okay fine," i stared right into this fucker's eyes and starts telling my story.

"Yeah, you're a jerk bud, a total jerk. Imagine, ganun lang yung nangyari"

"You know me when Im angry Lauriel"

"Oo alam ko, pero sana si Joan na ang makakagamot ng sakit mong yan"

"Im not sure with my feelings yet Lauriel"

"Ayaw mong may ibang lalaki siyang kasama o humawak sakanya
You get jealous easily
You are to possessive kahit wala namang kayo.
Nangungulila ka sakanya kahit ilang oras palang kayong nagkalayo" napakunot noo naman ako

What the--

"How the fuck did you know that? Pati yan na-hack mo rin?" Natawa naman siya ng malakas.

"Bud, ganyan rin ako kay Shane. That's why I really know how you feel. Im inlove with shane, every bit of him"

"W-what do you mean?"

"Dude, umamin kana, stop fighting your feelings and just go with the flow, ang sarap ma-inlove dude"

I-im inlove with Joan?

"Yes you do, oh paano, mauna na ako"

Im inlove with Joan....
