Prologue
"Kairo Alexander Villanueva in the house!"
Ang ganda ng pangalan. Pero kahit gaano kaganda ang pangalan niya, pangit pa rin ugali niya.
"Ang pogi!"
O kahit gaano kapogi ang mukha niya, pangit pa rin ang ugali niya. I hate him with every fiber of his being. Being privileged is one thing. Being an arrogant, insensitive, entitled privileged asshole is another. Napakayabang. Akala mo naman, hindi alam ng mga tao dito sa school na korap ang pamilya niya.
Dinala nila ako sa gitna ng basketball gymnasium. I crossed my arms and stared at the man infront of me. Nakikita ko ang kapatid kong si Tain na tumatawa mula sa malayo. I'll make sure that Daddy will scold him for not saving me from this pure embarrassment that is Kairo Alexander Villanueva.
"Tanya Janica Diaz..." He started talking. He should just shut up.
"Kinikilig ako! Bagay talaga sila!"
Hell no. Not today, not in a million years. Kadiri.
"Will you be my girlfriend?" Lumuhod siya sa harap ko, kasabay ng mga heart balloons at mga regalo na dala ng mga kaibigan niyang inis na inis rin ako. Corny. Cringe.
I sweetly smiled at him.
"Will you be my girlfriend, bal?"
"No." Diretso kong sagot na nagpatahimik sa lahat. Nawala ang mga ngiti ni Kairo.
"Tanya..."
"No, I won't be your girlfriend..." I repeated, nilingon ko ang mga kaibigan niya, "Paano ba yan? Talo si Kairo sa pustahan niyo. Make sure na may parte ako diyan, sayang naman ang effort kong umarte."
"Damn!" Savannah laughed from the back.
"Tanya..." He called again and stood up from his knees. He held my arm.
"Bitawan mo ako." Sabi ko sa kanya at inalis ang kamay niya, "You disgust me. I am really really disgusted... ang babaw mo..."
"Janica..." He called my second name, "Bal..."
I stared at him with my hateful stares before I pulled the necklace from my neck. Nagkasugat pa ako bago ko iyon ibinato sa mukha niya. I turned my back away from him, walking away and leaving him alone infront of the crowd he wanted to have so bad.
Tuloy-tuloy ang luha sa aking mga pisngi. Because I genuinely loved him... beyond the moon, beyond the sun, beyond constellations.
