Epilogue
August's POV
"dude, papakilala mo lang naman ako sa bestfriend mo. Ako na bahala dumiskarte sa kaniya."
Tinignan ko ng masama si Maki, one of my team mate at tsaka binato sa kaniya ang bola na hawak ko. "she's still young."
"Is she 10? Dude! She's already 17."
What the fuck, why does Kirs have to be attractive? Lahat ata ng team mates ko gusto siya. Tss Okay, okay. Let me tell you a story. I fell in love with her when I was 15. My friends keep on asking for help para daw maligawan nila si Kirs. No way! Sarili ko nga hindi ko matulungan sila pa?
I'm good with girls, that's what they thought pero hindi...I can't confess my feelings for Kirs. Torpe? No, I'm not takot lang ako na mawala siya sa akin.
I actually talked to her mom asking if I can court Kirs. "not until she's 18." Tita Kendra answered.
She's not yet 18 when I first confessed to her. I can't wait any longer, being best friend with her is good but I think being her boyfriend will be the best feeling ever. Especially when I caught her talking to herself "Oh God, heaven knows how I wanted August but please sana naman magtino muna siya." (from ch.1)
I cursed mentally when I hear her saying those words. Kaya ko naman magtino, takot lang ako sa long term commitment. My parents aren't always around and Kirs is the only one who's been there whenever I feel alone, kaya naman it takes a lot of courage to confess what I am feeling towards her.
Then she rejected me. It feels like my whole world is falling apart. Masyado kasi akong padalos-dalos, that's what I thought but you can't blame me. I love Kirs since heaven knows when.
I met this girl, she's beautiful and nice but still she's nothing compare to Kirs. I am wrong. I know. I used her. We'll I kinda like her, so I am trying to convince myself that I can handle a long term relationship.
All of the efforts are visible and I noticed that Kirs is jealous. Okay, I did the efforts on purpose. To show Kirs that I can be a good boyfriend and it's been paid off 'cos I see how jealous she is.
Akala ko, she is starting to like this Oliver guy so I have to make my move. Then I caught him talking to someone in the phone.
"chill! I know she's already falling..."
I step closer to Oliver, good thing he didn't notice me. "at kapag nahulog na siya at tsaka ko siya bibitawan. Like what August did to my girlfriend..."
I ball my fist but I have to hear the whole thing "why would I fall for Kirs? She's nothing compare to Carmela." He ended the call
Sinalubong siya ng kamao ko, kaya napahiga siya sa buhanginan. "bakit kailangan mong gawain kay Kirs to ha?"
Tinulak niya ako palayo at tsaka siya dumura sa buhanginan "dahil sayo! Iniwan ako ng girlfriend ko dahil sayo!"
"bakit kailangan siya pa ang gantihan mo? Suntukin mo ako! Sa akin mo ibuhos iyang galit mo!" nanginginig ang buong katawan ko sa galit.
