Chapter 1
Today is April 27,2021 supposed to be on this very day she would avoid social media and find something to entertain herself because she was avoiding reading tweets about someone (She knew their supporters would tag her with their tweets even though their love team was dissolved years ago.) But after six years she found herself checking someone's twitter account, she remembered it's his birthday today and she hasn't heard from him for the longest time.
She clicked on one of the videos that was being tagged to him by a fan, it was an interview with Myx hosted by dj Ai.
She smirked when his aura instantly changed from smiling face to impassive stoic look when he was asked if she's okay to do a collaboration with Julie Anne San Jose.
' Ouch! The nerve of this guy! Parang ako ang may kasalanan kung maka react... That's how you despise me Magalona? God! As if you've never been crazily in love with me before! Pangalan ko pa lang yan, what if you'll see me face to face? Why? As far as I can remember Magalona, I did nothing wrong with you! Ikaw ang may kasalanan sa akin! You cheated on me.'
She thought as anger instantly struck her.
She saw a tweet from a fan pertaining to the recent rumors...he and his girlfriend broke up after a year he posted their anniversary on instagram. And he confirmed it in one of his interviews that he is single at the moment. And she saw another tweet Elmo and his ex-girlfriend unfollowed each other.
And she was smiling widely and it turned into a full laugh.
" Hahaha! After a year break na kayo? Proud na proud ka pa last year, may pa anniversary photo post pa sa ig...that's how karma works Magalona!"
She said, talking to her cell phone.
' As if you and Kim didn't break up after eight months. Tawanan ka rin kaya ni Elmo? Ugh. Shut up. We should be magkakampi here, don't say anything against me, self.'
Julie and her inner self.
' Oh. Dapat ka nga palang magdiwang gurl! Oh di ba, ang tibay pa rin ng kapit mo...he didn't unfollowed you. You're the only ex that still stands in his social media. Uy! Happy na yan... Do you wanna know what that means? And look at his reaction when your name was mentioned, there's something behind impassive stoic look...at least ang lakas pa rin ng epekto mo sa kanya! Duh. Ang nega pa rin ng dating nun. Ano ako may nakakahawang sakit kung makaiwas? Gurl, admit it or not, nasaktan din siya ng sobra sa break up nyo. He was asking for a last chance for so many times but you never gave him the chance...and ang masakit pa noon, the sleeping thing with the gurl was a blur...what if nothing really happened between them? Di ba? The very last talk you had with him he said he can't even remember if may nangyari ba sa kanilang dalawa? Stop it. That was so 2019 and I'm so 2021...duh. I can't trust him anymore, that's why I have to end it... It's useless to continue the relationship if you already lost the trust, trust is the most vital role of any relationship. And tapos na yun. Stop associating our past with the present...ang labo. '
Julie shook her head.
And she saw another tweet with a picture of Elmo Magalona on his 24th birthday in a bar with his friends, he was smiling all ears.
' Oh boy, I'm sure you're depressed right now. Naka lockdown pa naman, the party boy cannot have his own birthday party. Saklap. That' s the less to worry Julie Anne. So yeah, maybe the guy was depressed... So ano na naman binabalak mo? Don't you want to comfort him? What? Nah. Why should I? But that's what you wanted to do...Nah. Lakompake sa kanya. Tulak ng bibig, kabig ng dibdib. You were like that when it comes to Elmo. That's what you're about to do. I know you gurl. Life is unpredictable nowadays, you'll never know he'll get infected with covid-19 then he will die...it's high time to forgive him and make amends. Ten points yun kay God, patawarin ang nagkasala sayo. And he needs someone to lean on. Sorry but ex lovers can't be friends. But ex lovers can be lovers again, don't you know that? And don't be too obvious girl, I'm just saying make amends, I didn't say make friends with him agad-agad, at least be there as his ex tandem partner. It's good timing, today is his birthday. '
