NIKI

"What are you doing here?"

"Duh. I came to visit, hindi ba yun pwede?"

"How did you know my place?"

"I have sources, Niki."

"What do you want?"

"If I say, you. Would you give in?"

"Stop this bullshit, V. This is not funny."

She ran her fingers into my chest. "Tanga ka rin kasi. Nandito naman ako, pero nagsisiksik ka dun sa tanga kong bestfriend. Can't I come in?" mapang akit na sabi niya pa. "I missed your touch, Niks---.."

"Tss. It just a one time thing, V. Lasing tayo parehas---..."

"Oh cut the crap! Lasing tayo, oo. But its just added to the fire we both have. Having sex with you is awesome. Nakaka adik." napapikit ako dahil sa pagkapikon sa babae na 'to. She's far, far different when she's with Nics.

"Let's talk but definitely not here!" asar na sabi ko, kinuha ko ang susi ng kotse saka ko siya hinatak paalis dun.

I never brought anyone at my condo. I reseved it for Nicole. To the one I loved. Kaya malaking palaisipan sa akin kung paano ito natunton ni V.

I never thought V is stands for vicious. I don't know either how we end up in bed that night. I felt like I was drugged but don't have any proof. The memory of how we had sex that night is still vivid on my mind. Pakiramdam ko nga madalas nakadikit na sa akin ang pakiramdam ng mga hawak at haplos niya. Which I found creepy!

Palagi ring siyang madalas sumusulpot sa mga lugar kung nasaan ako. Which is sometimes I'm questioning if it's really a coincidence. Tapos ngayon, nalaman niya ang lugar na kahit si Sam ay hindi alam. Gusto ko ng isipin na stalker siya. Ang malaking palaisipan na lang sa akin kung bakit at sa akin ba talaga?

As me and Nicole got closer, V and me became closer too. She's always with Nicole, kaya hindi naman malabo na hindi ko rin siya maka-close. She even accidentally known that I like her bestfriend. Kaya nagugulat ako sa mga inaakto niya ngayon mula ng may mangyari sa amin.

It felts like she wants to own me.

"Ano ba 'tong pinag gagawa mo V?" sa isang park ko siya dinala. I had a feeling na magkakasagutan kami kaya iniwas ko na sa public places.

"What? Wala naman akong ginagawa---..."

"But your acting weird. And I don't like it." diretsahan kong sabi. Her face is blank but her eyes speak more. "M-may gusto ka ba sa akin?"

"Yay!" mas ako pa yung nabigla sa sagot niya. "Nikita Chen. Sometimes your so dense! I like you. Not as a friend but more than that. I like everything about you."

Kunot noong tiningnan ko siya, para siyang baliw at obsessed na fan girl. "Are you fucking real? Isn't it Sam that you like--..."

"Well, yeah. Kaso nawala yung bestfriend mo. Then I got a chance to know you. I really like you Niki. Wala ka namang mapapala sa bestfriend ko. Head over heels inlove kay Sam 'yun. Besides, ano bang meron siya na wala sa kin?"

"We can't choose who we love V. Forget your feelings for me."

"Easy for you to say pero hindi mo naman magawa. Forget your feelings with Nicole, then I will forget you." hamon niya sa akin. At some point, she's right.

"I can't do---...."

"So do I. Tch. I can't do anything with my feelings towards you Niki. But one thing is for sure, I will not give you up. Even with Nicole."

"Don't be so fucking stubborn V. I will never like you." iniwan ko siya doon. I don't even fucking care what she will do with her feelings. Dumiretso ako sa kotse at pinasibad iyon. "Fuck!"

I'm worried na baka kung ano ang sabihin niya kay Nicole. Not now that I am having my chance. Hindi sa wala akong balita kay Sam, alam ko kung nasaan siya ngayon. Pero hindi kami nagkakausap. I can easily communicate with her, but I chose not to. Para saan pa? I am taking advantage this situation. Wala akong pakialam kahit masira pa kami.

My mind is scattered even in our company. Halos lahat nasigawan ko sa kokonting pagkakamali. Hindi ako mapakali, hindi pa nakakatulong na panay ang text at tawag ni V. But Nicole always save my day. She always lighten it whenever it's gloomy.

"Yes Nics?" nakangiting bungad ko pagkasagot sa tawag niya.

I really can't help but smile just hearing her voice.

"Hi Niks! Busy ka?" syempre kapag sa'yo hindi.

"Not much. You need something?"

"Oo sana. If okay lang naman."

Damn. Of course, baby. More than okay.

"What is it?"

"Can you fetch V? Tumawag sa akin yung taga Bistro. Lasing na lasing daw yung gaga. Tss. Anong oras pa lang nagkakalat na dun."  nawala ang ngiti ko at napalitan ng galit para kay V. Sama naman ng loob para kay Nicole. "Until eight pa kase ang duty ko, Niks. Okay lang ba?"

Napapikit ako sa labis na inis. Hindi dahil kay Nicole, kundi dahil alam kong gawa-gawa lang iyon ni V.

"Niks?"

"O-okay. I'll fetch her."

"Thank you Niks! Balitaan mo ako agad ha. And please take care V muna."

Napapikit ako sa labis na inis pagkababa ko ng tawag.

"Galang."

"Woah. Long time no hear? What's up?"

"Tss. Go to Bistro and pick up V." utos ko, up to now, Galang is my side kick. Bukod pa sa company ko siya nagtatrabaho.

"Right now? Mr. Chavez wants me to finish the monthly---..."

"I'll deal with him. Just pick up her."

"Chan, request ba 'to ni Nicole? Stop following her whims. This is fucking unlike you anymore. Susundin kita ngayon, but as my 'BOSS'. Pero ito ha, advice ko as a friend. Stop this bullshit, Niki. Masyado ng matagal ang panunuyo mo. It's been two years since Sam left but still, wala kang napapala kay Nicole. Don't you think it's about time to let it go?"

Kaso, hindi naman ako nanunuyo. When everyone around us is telling how obvious I was. Nicole doesn't have a slightest idea that I love her. Paano ako titigil?

Or maybe it's about time to confess and tell how I feel?

Am I ready for her rejection?
