“Gago ka. Wala na pala kayo, bakit hindi ka nagsasabi? Partida, kauumpisa niyo pa lang.” Panenermon ni Martin.
Napa-buntonghininga na lang ako.
I was so tired of waiting. Junior High School pa lang ay nasa tabi na niya ako at naghihintay pero wala, he chose to marry the man she doesn't even know. She agreed in the arrange marriage.
“Itigil mo na.” Atlas told me.
I looked up to him and frowned. “Ang ano?”
“Iyong kay Stacey. Ginagamit mo ‘yong tao, sinasaktan mo.” Seryosong aniya.
Napakurap-kurap ako at umayos ng tao. I gulped my own saliva before responsing. I shook my head a bit.
“Hindi naman... hindi naman gano’n ang intensiyon ko.” Dipensa ko.
Martin sighed. “But people will think about it that way.”
“Kahihiwalay niyo lang ng girlfriend mo. As of now, hindi alam ng mga fans mo na nagka-girlfriend ka at wala na kayo, pero sa oras na malaman nila at mapagkonekta ang sa inyo ni Stacey,”
They both looked so disappointed. “P’re, ikaw ang lalabas na masama, madadamay pa si Stacey.”
I parted my lips to gasp for some air. Napaisip ako sa sinabi nila. Nang sakyan ko ang sinabi ni Stacey, hindi naman iyon pumasok sa isip ko. Kumbaga, sumang-ayon ako dahil gusto ko lang.
Wala akong masamang intensiyon sa kaniya.
“Alam naman ni Stacey ang sitwasyon ko.”
“And so? Hindi naman tanga ‘yong tao para hindi maisip na baka ginagamit mo lang siya, na baka ginagawa mo lang siyang rebound.” Atlas fired back.
I bit my lip and bowed my head. “This is all just a bet.”
“Ayon!” Tila inis na bulaslas ni Martin. “Sabi na nga ba’t may mali, Vince. At ikaw ang paniguradong may kagagawan nito.”
