The Rebound
High school Students Catastrophe
There was this one girl at school, her name is Kriesha.. Well I can say that she's a very awesome girl.
And then there was this one boy whose name should not be said because he's such a douchbag..
That boy has been inlove with a girl who couldn't love him back. Because to her he's just a friend..
And also there was this one boy named Gilbert.. He's always been the silent type of guy.
What i can say is being silent and unknown to others gave you a lot of opportunity to observe.
The guy who's name should not be said has always been inlove with Tristen, our class valedictorian, ever since I can remember..
He became her friend.
But despite everything Tristen couldn't and wouldn't love him back. Mas priority kasi niya ang pag-aaral sa kahit ano pa man.
Kaya naman mas pinili ni Christian, the boy who's name should not be said, na mailipat sa iba yung feelings niya. He thought that the first step in moving on is finding another one to love. Hindi na niya naisip na he wouldn't be able to move on kung hindi niya pa kayang i-let go ang nararamdaman niya para kay Tristen.
Sa madali't salita. He decided to find a Rebound girl.
That is the time when he saw this one awesome girl. Kriesha.
She is, well I can say, every guys dream girl. If you would just get to know her, you will know how awesome she is. She's not glamorous beautiful, but she's beautiful. You would gave her, as what others call it 'the second glance'. She's bubbly and have a lot of friends. She can be as friendly as she can. But she's a bitch if you are mean to her. She's very kikay. But she's very cool if you see her on the dancefloor. And at the same time hindi din niya pinapabayaan ang pag-aaral niya.
All in all she's the perfect rebound girl. Pero hindi mo mapapansin na rebound lang siya. And that is what Christian needed the most that time. A girl that is fit for people to say that he has finally moved on.
Christian started courting her, so people would know that he already 'moved on'.
Kriesha maybe smart and all that but she's also a girl. She's naive to relationships and such. Kaya naman after a few months of Christian courting her, she said yes. She thought that he already moved on from Tristen.
Yes, she knew about his feeling for her back then. But she thought that he meant it when he said that he loves her.
She was so happy that time that she became oblivious to what her friends were saying. Clearly her friends saw that Christian is just using her. But still she remained blind. She decided to see past through it.
Bakit?
Simple. Hindi dahil sa nagpapakatanga siya. She just didn't want to get hurt.
Pero dumating na iyong oras na siya na mismo ang nakakita. She saw how he begged Tristen to accept him.
At that time hindi niya alam kung ano ang mas masakit, iyong nakita mo na hindi pa pala naka move on ang taong mahal mo o iyong simpleng nakita mo siya na nagmamakaawa para sa atensyon ng iba.
She felt like crying that time, who wouldn't.
She felt like her heart was being torn into pieces.
But still she managed to keep a straight face.
She can be deaf to what her friend was saying.
She can be blind to those times when she saw him looking at her.
But she can't ignore the pain.
Nilapitan niya ang mga ito and saw how Christian's face paled as he saw her.
Nakita din niya kung paano bumakas ang awa sa mukha ni Tristen.
She slapped Christian hard on the face, kung sana lang ay matutumbasan noon ang sakit na nararamdaman niya ngayon.
She looked at Tristen straight in the eyes and smiled bitterly. "He's all yours"
