Lies and Truths...

"Yes, Hershey?" I said coldly.

She grab me dahilan para bumangon sa pagkakahiga si Kenzo.

"Are you really pissing me, Ken. Huh?" She exaggerately asked.

Kenzo looked at me. I just nooded at him. He stare Hershey blankly. Kinuha ko ang kamay ko mula sa pagkakahawak ni Hershey. Nakita kong nagulat pa siya sa ginawa ko.

"The heck! What is your problem,Scen! Are you stupid?!" She yelled dahil muntik na siyang matumba ng bawiin ko ang kamay ko.

My lips formed an amused expression. So this is trully she? I never thought that she would cussed me that much! I even didn't think that she cuss!

"Ikaw, Hershey? Anong problema mo?" I talked back.

Her eyes got more angrier. She grinned. Kita kita ko ang panggigil sa kaniya. Humakbang siya palapit sa akin.

"I told you, right?" She madly said. "I command you to stay away from him!" She greeted her teeth.

"Stop this damn manipulation, Hershey!" I saw how shocked she was when I yelled back.

"Manipulation?" Natatawang ani niya. "I dont do any manipulation, Scen." She continued sarcastically.

"And what do you call this then? You are using me to Kenzo. And you using Kenzo too to break me!" I frustratedly said.

"And why would I use a useless and worthless girl like you?!" Damn, she hitted it.

I can't breathe. My anger, pain, confusion, and sadness are blending. My heart can't handle it.

And then I figured it out. "Inggit. Naiinggit ka." I answered.

She laugh fakedly. "Bakit naman ako maiinggit sayo?"

"Because I have everything that you wanting badly secretly. The perfect family, grades, friends and even..." I saw her eyes. I'm right. "Kenzo." I continued.

She about to attack me when Kenzo immediately moves his body to protect
me. "Hands off on my property, Hery."

Hershey stares Kenzo painfully. "I was there when no one does, Kenzo." Panunumbat niya.

"I don't mind being scolded by my parents just to be with you! To give you comfort." She cried.

"I was thank full for what you did back then, Herry." Kenzo uttered. "But when I found out that you manipulate Reyli to have me? I lost my gratefulness to you." He frankly said.

My eyes widen. S-Si Hershey? Kilala niya si Reyli?

"Dahil si Reyli sagabal lang siya sa atin!" She scolded crazily.

Mabuti na lang at nag uwian na ang students kakaunti na lang kaya may iilan na nakakasaksi ng iskandalo na ginagawa ni Hershey.

"Ako ang lagi mong kasama through your ups and downs but then you choose Reyli! I healed you when she left you pero ang pinili mo si Scenary naman?!" Hindi ko na kilala ang nasa harap ko ngayon.

This is not Hershey, I knew and grow with. She's to far become like this desperate!

"Magkaibigan tayo Hershey—" she slapped Kenzo.

"No! Kapag ako ang kasama mo you're always happy! I made you happy when you are in a mess!" Laban niya pa.

"Hershey, Thank you for that happiness I appreciate how you help me. Pero hanggang doon lang yun." Kenzo heartlessly speak.

Hershey looked down. Hindi ko alam na may ganito siyang pinagdadaanan. Kung alam ko lang sana ay natulungan ko siya. She always there when I needed someone to hold my pain and fears. She always there when I needed a support...but sadly I wasn't there when she needed me at her worst.

Pakiramdam ko ay kasalan ko. I should blame my self for this. Naging selfish ako. Gusto ko laging nandon siya pag kailangan ko. Gusto ko kahit hindi ko sabihin sakaniyang kailangan ko siya ay magkukusa siyang damayan ako. Pero nung siya na ang nangailangan nun. Mas inuna niya pang alalayan ako bago alalayan ang sarili niya. How selfish I am?

She look at me and smirk. "See? He likes this kind of game Scenary. I already warned you. He stuck with Reyli's presence that's why he's being interested with Reyli's exactly vibes. I become his rebound and it would be next you." Ganti niya pa bago mag martsa palayo.

Nilingon ako ni Kenzo. He hold my hand.

Itiningalan niya ako sakaniya. She cupped my face.

"Trust me,I won't." He sincerely asked.

I smiled at him. "Of course you won't."

Ikinuwento ko ang lahat kay Mommy. She was shocked. Hindi niya alam na ganoon si Hershey. Although simula pagkabata daw ay expected niya na daw yun dahil simula pagkabata daw ay napapansin niya na yun.

"Narcissistic Personality is causes of extreme envy. Siguro ay di mo na naalala pero when you're 4 years old she use to cut your hair nagugulat pa nga kami ng daddy mo nang tinanong namin siya kung bakit niya ginagawa iyon. She said that she hated your hair because it's long and curly than her's. Simula noon ay pinaglayo muna namin kayo ng tita Marie mo. They went to America for her treatment habang bata pa." Kwento ni Mommy.

Ngayon ko lang nalaman na talagang may sakit siya. Pero bakit hindi ko naman nakita yun nung nagkasama kami ulit?

"Pero hindi ko nakiya yun Mom nung nagkasama kami ulit? Hindi niyo man lang sinabi sa akin ang tungkol diyan?" Gusto ko talagang malaman kung paanong nangyari na hindi ko man lang napansin yun? cini-claim ko pang almost sister ko na siya pero hindi ko pa pala siya tuluyang kilala.

"Nung tumanda kayo hinayaan na namin kayo ng Daddy mo. We thought na magaling na siya, she changed a lot. We keep that secret thou dahil ayaw namin maka apekto ito sa surroundings ni Hershey. But her disorderil isn't visible kaya hindi mo rin mao-observe." Mommy explained.

Matapos mangyari iyon ay naging usap usapan si Hershey. Nag drop-out siya dahil nalaman ni Tita Marie ang nangyari maging siya hindi aakalain na instead na gumaling ay lumala pala ang Disorder ni Hershey.

Nalaman ng buong school ang sakit niya. Ako ang nasasaktan para sa kaniya. Kung kailan ay isang year na lang at mag co-college na siya ay tsaka naman siya pinahinto ng sakit niya.

I searched about her condition. Hindi biro ang pinagdadaanan ni Hershey. She can even hurt her self due to extreme envy and can lead her in to over obsession. I cried for her. Dapat tinulungan ko siya e.

"It's not your fault, shhh." Kenzo comforted me.

My tears are stil flowing. I cried really,really hard. I'm blaiming my self.

I stared Kenzo on the screen. We're on a video call. "Dapat talaga hindi lala yun kung pinaubaya na lang talag kita!"

I saw how the pain goes to Kenzo's eyes. Napayuko siya.

"I think you need to get rest, baby. Let's talk when you're calm," He softly said and smile before ending the call.

I cover my fae and buried it into pillow. Pinagpapalo ko ang unan sa sobrang inis sa sarili ko.

"Ano ba Scenary you shouldn't said that to him! You hurting his feelings, you're such a dumb!" I whispered to my self.

Here I am suffering from the lies and regrets knowing the truth...
