Getting Over

Ella tapped Lara's back as the other was still trying to grab another bottle of beer.

"Tama na yan Lara mi..." Ella tried to stop her friend the latter resisted.

"I'm good Ella, wag kang mag alala." Lara replied with a weak smile.

Ella sat down at the stool beside Lara.

The Bar tender offered her a glass of Vodka but she order a glass of wine instead.

"Makikinig ako." Ella told Lara.

"Nagtiwala ako Ella," Lara started. She tried not to mumble her words but it was too hard especially when you're stopping your tears and sniffing your runny nose.

"Naniwala ako. Nagpakatanga ako. Sinabi niya, hihintayin niya ako." Lara continued, "Ako naman tong si tanga na parang batang gaga na niwala. Nagtiwala." Lara added.

Ella just kept her mum and sipped from her glass. Her eyes are filled with concern and worry for her clearly hurt friend.

"Sabi niya andun lang siya pag balik ko, pero bat ganun Ella, tangina naman." Lara cursed boldy which didn't surprised Ella

"Pag balik ko hindi lang yung kung ano kami yung nawala, pati na din yung siya na nakilala ko't minahal" Lara continued, "Pati sarili ko di ko na kilala pag balik ko. Bat ganun Ella?" Lara asked before downing the bottler in her hand.

"Tang ina namang buhay to! Nag mahal lang naman ako, pero putang inang buhay to.Di na na kuntento, di lang puso winasak sa akin, Ella, pati na pagkatao ko" Lara grumbled as she grabbed another beer and downed it almost instantly.

"Wala sa akin yung sagot Lara mi," Ella replied, "Wala din diyan sa boten hawak mo. Ang alam ko, may rason siya. Hindi lang din ikaw ang nasaktan, siya din naman siguro." Ella continued, "Baka balang araw, matanong mo yan sa kanya."

"Gusto ko siyang tawagan, gusto ko siyang puntahan ngayon at tanungin ng harap harapan bakit, paano niya nagawa sa akin, sa amin to." Lara almost weeping blurted these words,

"Ang sakit sakit ng ginawa niya sa akin. Daig ko pa ang namatay ng dalawang beses."

Ella just held Lara's hand, she doesn't know how to respond to her.

"Nung makita ko silang masaya, nung makita ko siyang masaya. Never siyang ngumiti ng ganun na kasama ako. Never Ella." Lara continued, "Sigruo nga kulang ako. Kulang yung mga binigay ko."

"Sapat ka Lara mi, sapat ang binigay mo." Ella answered.

"Kung sapat bakit pa siya naghanap ng iba?" Lara snapped.

"Siya lang ang makakasagot." Ella mumbled

Lara looked at Ella and smiled weakly again.

Ella returned the gesture.

"Are you okay?" Ella asked but immediatly rephrased it, "Will you be okay? Ella corrected herself.

"No," Lara replied almost instantly, you can here the anger and everything else on her voice, "but I'll get there, I'll get stronger. I'll be better. But right now, No, I'm, not okay" Lara added.

"Kaya nga andito ako, sasamahan kita." Ella replied with a smile.

Lara smirked as she downed another bottle.

"I'll get over her, not now, but I'll be there." Lara replied as her vision started to get blurred by tears again.
