Karran's POV

I handed exactly 4 flower bouquets to the squad members. Yep, apat lang. Namely, Gwenny, Paula, Philip and Abby. Cess is not here at alam naman na natin kung bakit. Cherie's graduation will be next week at yon naman ang next na pupuntahan namin.

Two years have passed and the Christmas two years ago was the worst.

"Where's your bebe, Karran?"tanong ni Philip at saktong labas naman ni Liam at dumiretso sa akin.

"Sorry, hindi ko naabutan yung ceremony pero I got flowers for all of you. And food."

"Ayos lang, uwi na tayo."bago niya ako hapitin at akayin papunta sa sasakyan pero natigil ako sa pabirong sigaw ni Abby.

"Mahal kita, Karran. And I demand- respect."sigaw niya. "R-E-S-P-E-C-T. RESPECT."

Tsaka siya nagmamarchang sumakay sa sasakyan namin.

"I am the one who pity Abbriana, really."narining kong sabi ni Liam sa tabi ko pero buntong hininga lang ang naitugon ko.

FLASHBACK

Today's the resume of the classes pero parang super tahimik ng school then after classes, ang tahimik naman ng dorm. As if something changed. Something's missing. Wala yung dating sigla sa loob ng room namin and it's suffocating na wala man lang ni isa ang nagsasalita. Until Abbriana spoke.

"Nate's seeing someone else."

Syempre naturally, nagulat kaming lahat. I don't know what to do than to punch that Nate in the face pero that's not the right thing to do now.

Akala ko ay magagalit or iiyak si Abby but she smiled. And her smile is not like the usual bubbly smile. More like a... psycho smile? Wth

"As if naman papayag ako."she continued. "I don't care if he's seeing someone else. As long as kami parin, ako lang ang may karapatan sa kaniya."

We ended up sleeping after Abbriana dahil baka may kalokohan naman siyang gawin kapag tulog na kami.

The following months are the usual for Abbriana. She's just eating, using her phone and studying all day. She doesn't want to wear makeup anymore. She doesn't want to sing anymore. She doesn't want to go to salon to fix her nails or her hair. She's barely living. And the alarming part here is that after she said Nate is seeing someone else, she never cried. As in, NEVER.

At gaya ng hindi niya pag iyak. Hindi narin niya kami pinakinggan kahit kailan.

"Sinabi ni Abby yon?"dismayadong tanong ni Cherie. "Tanga ba sya? May babae tapos hindi nakikipagbreak? Anong klaseng lalaki yan?"

Ngayon lang siya nakapunta since ngayon din ang final day nila sa third year. Earlier before Cherie came, Cess finally moved out. She said she has a condo and extra money and she'll call us if she needs something. So Cherie didn't have the chance to see what Cess looks like.

Napatingin kami kay Philip nang bigla siyang tumayo at magtanggal ng necktie tsaka niya kinuha ang susi ng sasakyan sabay sabing,

"Pupuntahan natin si Nate."

---

"Ano namang gagawin natin dito?"tanong ni Gwenny. "Huhulihin ang babae ni Nate?"

"Oo tapos sasabunutan natin hanggang nakikita na ang anit niya. Tapos sasabunutan din natin si Nate at pagpapalitin natin ang buhok nila ng kabit niya."
