Kenzi's
"Ang lakas ng ulan ako pa talaga naisipan mong utusan. Pahilata na ako tapos tumawag ka pa, istorbo ka talaga." Pablo
Si Pablo ang napagutusan kong bumili ng gamot. Sya lang kasi nasa contacts ko beside kay Jaxon.
"Sorry naman, ang hirap iwan ni Jaxon eh. Salamat dito."
"Seryoso ka ba sa kanya?" Pablo
Him and his curiosity.
"For doing the husband thing, I can say Yes. But having feelings for him? We'll see that."
And beside Jaxon, he has someone he likes. If I start catching feelings for him, I'll end up getting hurt, so as long as I can avoid it, I will.
"You're doing it for your own personal reasons, Am I right?" Pablo
"No, of course not."
"Don't lie, Kenzi. You wanted to do this for a long time, but you haven't given yourself a chance to do it because of what happened, right? So, you are doing this to experience what marriage really looks like." Pablo
"It's not like that, Pablo. I'm doing this because I want to. No other reasons. I am his husband, so it's natural to take care of him and worry for him.."
"You're still living in the past, aren't you? You can easily cut the marriage off. If you really want to end it, you can just take a leave and get a divorce like your husband wanted. But why is it taking you so long to decide? If you are not using him to experience the things you romanticize in your failed engagement, you should've let him go sooner." Pablo
Why do I feel annoyed? I know Pablo is just giving me advice and making me realize what I'm doing, but I can't just ignore it.
"Dude, lower your voice, he might hear you. I appreciate your concerns, but you don't have to worry about me. All is going well, we're getting along with each other, although we consistently fight for small things, and it's bearable."
"Ewan ko sayo, napakatigas ng ulo mo. Bahala ka na sa buhay mo, malaki ka na. Nagpaparamdam pa ba si JC sayo?" Pablo
Why do you have to mention that motherf*cker's name?
"Hindi, sa pagkakaalam ko nasa tournament sya these past few months."
"Bakit mo alam?" Pablo
This man is really attentive than my own self.
"I just saw an article about him months ago, okay? I just checked if he's still breathing after what happened, but it seems he's healthy and going to be the first human being to live for 200 years."
"That bastard and his vices.." Pablo
I do understand why Pablo is mad whenever we talk about my ex-fiancé. He and Stell were there for me when my life was about to collapse. And I will be forever thankful for them, they put in so much effort just to get me back on track, and it all worked out.
"Don't mind him, just let him do whatever he wants. One day he will realize what he has lost."
"Don't you dare accept him again, if you do, I will surely end up in jail." Pablo
"For getting revenge for me? That's so sweet.."
"No, for killing you, idiot." Pablo
"Pakasama ng ugali.."
"Talagang masama ugali ko lalo na pagdating sa mga taong manloloko at nagpapaloko." he said while in his serious face.
"Okay, okay, I get it now.."
"You know, I'm kind of curious about your husband, can I go see him?" Pablo
"Yeah, of course you can, but you have to be careful when making noise. He's a light sleeper.."
"You care too much for him, huh? How come you moved on so fast after getting married to a stranger?" Pablo
Him and his careless questions.
"Isn't that you always wanted? To make me move on and be happy?"
"Yeah, but I didn't say you have to do it so fast to the point you used someone to finally get over with some jerk, you know?" Pablo
"I didn't use him, okay?"
"Yeah, yeah whatever." Pablo
"Why won't you believe me?"
"Because it's all over your face that you are lying. You know, the mouth can sometimes, or not sometimes, mostly lie by using some distractible words to deny what they truly feel, but the heart can't, okay? Everything you feel will show in your face or in your whole body. So, don't ever try to lie to me again, it's useless." Pablo
Him and his words.
"Bakit hindi ka na lang nag aral ng psychology? You are so good when it comes to observation and reading people's mind."
He looks like he's seen a ghost when he sees Jaxon.
"That brat...."
"What? WHy?"
"We bumped into each other two times. He's the one I told you that has no manners." Pablo
"I don't recall you telling me that he has no manners."
"Bastard, not because he is your husband, you will take his side.." Pablo
"Lower your voice.."
"It's enough. I've seen him before, so there's nothing interesting to him anymore." Pablo
"Do you hate Jaxon for not recognizing you as a professor or for bumping into you?"
"Who said I hate him? I just don't like him.." Pablo
"What's the difference, though?"
"Really, dude? You want to discuss the differences between the two in front of your sick husband?" Pablo
"Let's talk downstairs.."
It's really fun to have someone like Pablo, as if I won the lottery for having a friend and an older brother at the same time. And he's so good at listening to the point that you will think he's a psychologist. I have free therapy whenever I'm with him.
"He's young..." Pablo
"We have one year age gap.."
"Really?" Pablo
"Why are you asking me like I'm in the mid 40's?"
"Well, you look more in the mid 50's.." Pablo
"Fvcker, shut up. I'm not that old.."
"HAHAHAHA anyway I'll get going while the rain stopped. I'll see you tomorrow." Pablo
"Yeah, take care on the way home. Thanks again for bringing the medicine.."
"All good. No problem." Pablos
After seeing Pablo leave, I go back to Jaxon to wake him up and let him take the medicines.
