"Matagal pa ba tayo? Ang sakit na ng likod ko!" reklamo ko kay Azaleah. Agad naman niyang isinuot ang kanyang earphones. Kanina pa kasi kami nasa bus, simula alas tres ng umaga hanggang ngayon hindi pa rin namin nakikita ang arc ng Ilocos Sur. 


It's currently 7:23 in the morning at inip na inip na ako. "We could've just got a flight to ilocos eh di sana nandoon na tayo in just an hour." mataray kong sabi bago ipagkrus ang mga braso ko. Narinig ko namang bumulong yung girlfriend ni Yuzu sa kanya.


"Yuki said she wants to experience riding a bus here in the Philippines dahil ibang iba daw yung bus dito compared sa Japan." Yuzu told me and I just rolled my eyes. Paano kasi 'tong dalawa kong kaibigan laking Japan. Ang hirap makipag-sabayan sa kanila.


We love traveling together, we've been to many countries like Korea, Thailand, Japan and Iceland. But we decided to explore our own country this month since we haven't really gone to many places here. We figured we should appreciate our country first by exploring every single corner of it before traveling elsewhere.


We plan on going to Puerto Galera and El Nido next 2 weeks after our trip sa Ilocos Sur and Norte. "Babe can you pass me the water?" Luca told Azaleah at agad naman akong gumawa ng nandidiring mukha. Paano kasi dati kaming trio pero naging lima kami dahil nagkaroon ng mga lovers yung dalawa.


Hindi naman ako naiinggit sa kanila, naiirita lang because I have to deal with their PDA everytime we travel. Pero hindi pa rin maiiwasan na mainggit ako dahil who wouldn't want someone to hold, kiss and hug anytime? And I hate being the all around third wheel everytime they plan dates. I hold their stuff, I take pictures of them and etc. Pero binabayaran naman nila ako doon so all goods pa rin naman.


"Ayan ka na naman sa mukha mo," sabi sa akin ni Luca at tumawa naman sina Yuki at Yuzu. "Alam mo, just go get yourself a boyfriend. Para hindi ka nale-left out sa amin. We won't always be there when you need us sometimes because we too have our lives in a relationship." sambit sa akin ni Azaleah and I just scoffed. We've been friends for more than 13 years so di ko na kailangan i-worry yon.


Sapat na sila sa akin. I don't need a boyfriend because I think it's time consuming and a little bit over rated. Feeling ko sa una lang yan masaya eh. I've experienced being in a relationship but the thing is there was no love. The break up ended with a, "Isa lang naman tanong ko para magpatuloy tayo, mahal mo ba ako?" and with that silence, I already knew it was a good thing that we ended it.


It's fun being single and living life the fullest. I get to spend money on myself, don't have to worry about buying monthsary and anniversary gifts. Don't have to plan dates, and don't need to be shitty sweet in a relationship just because it's what they want.
