Months already passed and March na. Konti na lang gagraduate na kayo. Busy na kayong lahat sa clearance and project kaya you rarely hang out with your boyfriend.

"Love, sabay tayo uwi?" He asked habang nakafocus sa daan.

He's not using his motorcycle. Naka car kayo ngayon. "Pwede naman."

"Sabi mo yan ah. Nag review ka ba?" He asked and you nodded without looking at him. You're busy reading your book.

"Currently reviewing yung first subject." You said. "Ikaw, nag review ka?"

"Yep. Anong akala mo sa 'kin puro bulakbol?" He asked.

You chuckled. "Parang ganon na nga."

You closed your book and looked at him. "Ayaw ko na i-hide relationship natin." You said.

"Ako rin. Ang hirap magpigil." He answered.

You stared at him. "Pero kaya ko pa naman pigilan 'tong selos ko sa mga nalapit sayo."

He stopped his car and unbuckled his seatbelt pati na rin sayo. "Pero wag naman sana silang masyadong lumapit sayo. Nagseselos talaga ako."

You cupped his cheeks. "Ako rin nagseselos sa mga babae mo. Tell them nga na you're not available, joke lang."

"Hindi ko na nga pinapansin." He answered.

"I'll go to the library. Sama ka?" You asked.

Agad siyang umiling. "May inuutos pa si Boss Izana. Try ko sumunod."

Kinuha mo naman ang bag mo at nilagay ang book mo. You were about to leave but he held your hand. "Baby, i have something for you."

"Ano?"

Binigay niya ang isang paper bag sayo and you opened it. Pagbukas mo ay puro chocolates ito and your favorite drinks. "Sabi kasi nakakahelp yung chocolate sa exam. Good luck, love."

"Aga mag sweets. Thank you, my love." You said and kissed his cheeks. "Good luck sa exam."

"Wala na perfect na." He teased kaya natawa ka na lang.

Last day na rin kasi ng exam ngayon kaya hindi mo siya gaano makabonding. "Mauna na ako ah." You said.

"Yes po, i love you."

"I love you, see you around." You said and he just smiled.

Agad ka namang lumabas at dumiretso na sa library. Pagpasok pa lang ay may mga estudyante na rin dito. You saw Ashlyn with Izana na nag aaral sa isang sulok at mukhang anytime magsasagutan na.

You proceed na dumiretso sa favorite place mo but you saw someone na nakapwesto na doon. It was Ran's significant other.

"Hello, may nakaupo sa tabi mo?" You asked.

She looked at you. Her eyes are a bit swollen, mukhang umiyak siya but she looks pretty pa rin. "Wala naman." She said and smiled.

You casually sat beside her at nag umpisa na magbasa ng mga ieexam niyo ngayon. Tahimik ka lang habang siya naman ay ganoon din.

She really looks so masungit especially her eyes. Lalo na kapag naka rest bitch face siya.

Naalala mo na naman yung conversation niyo ni Chifuyu about Ran and his girl.
