just something

Always You, It Was Always You

Notes: 

            Not rushed but I really didn't proofread it. Very slow burn. This is an attempt to clear my mind of this kind of idea that would never happen to me. While there are actually friendships that are plainly friendships, this story attempts to highlight how Angelica and Gabriel are just idiots in love. Thank you and enjoy!

And by the way, I'm sorry I included scenting (unprovoked) in some of the parts here. If you're uncomfortable with that, please just dismiss that. 

---------------------------------------------------- 

It was supposed to be a fun day. Dapat kasi mag-eenjoy lang siya sa road trip na 'to. Hindi naman talaga siya papayag kung hindi siya pinilit ng kaibigan niyang pinsan siguro ni Satanas. Kaya ayon, she filed a leave for 4 days. Kasi they will be traveling by land daw at gusto nilang mapasyalan ang mga lugar na naririnig nila mostly sa TV. 

But yes, she was supposed to enjoy this. Why is she not enjoying this nga ba? Hmm. Maybe it's because of her ex-boyfriend bringing the girl that wrecked their relationship? 

Because Angelica just can't understand it. They let him go with them, even though they all cut ties with him the moment he cheated on her. Jericho begged until they decided to bring him. She doesn't even know why he insisted. Nakakabigla lang. Okay lang kasi si Jericho na hindi na siya part sa group, pero now he's desperate for a chance. What changed? 

 Now, they are on their way to Bohol. It's already 10 PM and the barge they're in on will start sailing at 10:30 PM. Thankful din si Angelica that they went early. May history kasi ng mga procrastinator ang mga friends niya, kaya nabuhayan siya ng loob noong sinabi nila na they need to be at the barge 25 minutes bago ang last check-up. 

They all had cars and Angelica and her friend, Melissa, decided to stay in her Camaro. Hindi naman kasi ganoon ka-uncomfortable matulog sa sasakyan. They even feel safe na nasa loob lang sila with their things. 

"Hey, Angelica. Okay ka lang ba? I mean, Jericho and his girl is here." Melissa asked her, trying to get something out of her friend. 

Ever since Jericho showed up with his girlfriend, Angelica just lost all the energy to talk. Not because she's not over him but the fact that he cheated on her with the girl he calls his girlfriend now just doesn't sit right with her spirit. She just can't understand how they have the face to show to them after all they've done. 

Angelica was caught up in her head and she only snapped out of it when Melissa pinched her. 

"Bitch! That hurt." 

"Eh kasi nga, answer me. You know I never stop until I get what I want!" 

"Okay, fine...." 

"So?" 

"I'm not okay with it. Not because I hate them both, because I don't. I just don't get the point..." 

"What point are we talking about here?" 

"Like why did Jericho beg to go with us? Hindi ba weird? He was okay when they told him they would not hang out with him muna. Pero now? It's not even three months yet." Angelica sighed. Hindi niya kasi talaga naiintindihan? Tsaka, imbes na mag-enjoy siya, nasstress na ulit siya. 

"Maybe he just wanted to hang out? And it's okay by the way, to not be okay with this. Kasi for me, super thick-faced silang dalawa. They tricked you for 3 months! They were screwing each other behind your back for 3 months tapos hindi ka man lang bibigyan ng kahit 3 months lang din to at least be okay with their existence! Aba! Puryagaba mga giatay." Melissa finished her ranting with her tagline. She was always the fierce one among their friends. That's why Angelica talked to her during the times she was still crying over Jericho with beers and ice cream to accompany her.
