Worried~




CLARDIA

"Here you are,"

Greg opened my room's door. He let us in first.

Wala ako sa sariling pumasok sa loob. Sa totoo lang, gusto kong mapag-isa. Gusto kong intindihin ang lahat ng mga nangyari na gumugulo sa aking isipan.

Oo, nagagalit ako. Naiinis ako sa mga nalaman ko pero ayokong magpadala masyado sa emosyon. Dahil minsan, sa likod ng mga pagkakamali ng iba, mayroong mga rason na dapat mo munang pagtuunan bago manghusga.

Hindi ko muna pinagpaliwanag si Lucas dahil alam ko sa sarili ko na hindi pa 'ko handa. That I will just be blinded of my anger instead of understanding him. Kilala ko rin si Lucas. He's not a selfish person para gumawa ng mga bagay na para lang sa sarili niya. Alam kong nilihim niya ang totoo para sa'kin.

But still, I felt cheated on. I felt fooled. Masakit pa rin sa'kin na naglihim siya all throughout our four years of being in a relationship. And now, I'm starting to doubt the affection he showed me. What if  he approached me with a purpose? It's actually not impossible dahil masyadong sakto ang lahat para masabing coincidence lang ang mga ito.

The same goes with Celeste. Honestly, I'm much hurt of her betrayal. Napalapit na 'ko sa kanya. Tinuturing ko na siyang nakababatang kapatid and I'm willing to protect her at all cost. Iba rin ang pagkakakilala ko kay Celeste. She's too soft and genuine. Kaya sa palagay ko may mabigat din siyang rason.

They just have to give me time, and I'll listen to them.

Naupo ako sa aking kama. Zain sat with me while, Kiefer positioned himself on the sofa beside the vanity table. Greg slowly walked towards me.

"Clardia... How are you? What did they do to you?" he asked.

Actually, I almost forgot that I also got into an incident with Ursaminor. Too much revelations followed after it so, it almost skipped my mind.

"I'm okay, Greg."

Hindi agad siya sumagot at natapahimik saglit. "I'm sorry, Clards. I didn't told you the truth about my—"

Hindi ko na siya pinatapos. "I don't want to hear it now."

Halatang nagulat siya sa reaksyon ko saka bumuntong-hinga.

"Heneral Goryo, hayaan mo na muna 'yan. Ganyan talaga siya kapag may nalaman siyang 'di niya gusto. But for sure, she'll let you explain in time." Kilalang-kilala talaga ako nito ni Zain. Well, sa ilang taon naming pagkakaibigan, of course we also went through struggles kaya alam niya na 'pag ganito ako.

"Alright... aalis na lang muna ako. But if you guys are already done talking, you can find me and I'll you tell where your rooms are."

"Sige,"

"Bye, Miss Z. I'll see you later." he winked. "Dude, I'll go now," pamamaalam niya naman kay Keifer who seems like spacing out.

"A-Ah, okay, dude." he answered.

"Clards..." Greg called. I nodded at him.

He exited my room. Kami na lang ng mga kaibigan ko ang natira dito sa loob. Zain stared at me like she want me to say something.

"You guys shouldn't be here." I finally uttered.

"So, you're not happy seeing us, Clard?" Zain said na bahagya pang umiling.
