I got sick and stayed at home ako but Saint, he never visited me. Kumikirot na naman, I don't want to open my blue app dahil alam kong sakit lang makukuha ko.
Pero sadyang sadista ata ako sa sarili ko dahil nagbukas parin ako. Nine and Seven's messages flooded my inbox ,isa pang pumuno ay mga message ni Jabari.
Hinanap ko ang pangalan ni Saint pero ni isang message ay wala akong natanggap. I couldn't help but to cry, ang sakit lang kasi yung message niya lang ang hinihintay ko pero ni isang message galing sakaniya ay wala.
Three days, He didn't even bother to message me ,he didn't even call me kahit bisita ay wala. Anong nangyayari sayo Saint?
Napapikit ako ng mariin at bumangon sa kama. It's a good thing dahil medyo maayus na ako wala na din si Kuya Hio ng gumising ako at may pagkain na ding nakahain doon, I fixed myself, ate then went to school.
Seven and Nine Welcomed me nagalit pa nga dahil hindi pa ako masyadong okay ay pumasok agad ako.
" I'm okay" I assured them. Nine went back to his class saka din kami umalis ni Seven para sa next class but then Seven immediately blocked my view ng titingin sana ako sa mini garden ng department namin.
" Diretso na tayo?" Seven said.
" Alis Syete." saad ko. Tumingin muna siya saakin ng nag aalala bago umalis sa harap ko but then there i saw Saint with his ex.
Students knows Saint and I in a relationship kaya alam kung nakatingin na din ang ibang mga nakaka alam saamin ni Saint.
So his ex and i are in same department? Nasa 3rd gate ba ang mga Archi.
I stared at them blankly before dialing Saint's number.
Love? You okay na ba?
" Yeah. Where are you Saint? Wala kang class right? Can you visit me?"
Hmm? Here sa condo. Doing my plates. I'll visit you later okay? I bit my lower lip as i tried not to tremble. Saint you liar!
So what are you doing right now?
" Watching."
Another Romance again? You really love that
" Yeah , Maganda nga eh"
Can you tell me what romance is that,love?
" You. Love story niyong dalawa ng ex mo." I answered. Nakita ko kung paano siya luminga linga hanggang sa mahanap niya ako. I blankly stare at him.
" Let's break up. You liar." I badly want to fight Saint pero araw araw ka nalang nagsisinungaling saakin. Sobrang sakit na kasi.
I saw how his lips parted while looking at me confused, hurt and I also saw a panic in his eyes. He tried to talk but i already ended the call dragging Seven back to our next class, not mindung how the students look and talk to each other.
Some is hating Saint for cheating
and some are happy that i broke up with Saint already. I didn't shed any tears when i say those words.
Siguro mamayang gabi ay si Saint ang iiyakan ko, panigurado yun.
" Club?" Seven looked at me wala na din naman akong magagawa so I just nodded.
" Sama natin pinsan mo? Wag na nating ayain si Nine kasi siya susundo saakin." Natawa ako sa sinabi ni Seven kaya tumango nalang ako. He type something on his phone maya maya ay ay tumunog ang phone ko.
It's Jabari. He's calling.
Sus! Ako na bahala sa kay Kuya Hio. Sunduin ko kayo sa first gate. I just said okay and ended the call.
After our class, I saw Saint at the main entrance of our department's building kaya agad akong hinila ni Seven para dumaan sa first entrance. We manage to avoid Saint.
" Tara na?" pagbungad ni Ri saamin. Ri probably already knows sa chismis ba naman ay parang apoy lang din, mabalis kumalat.
Hindi nag abalang nagtanong si Ri at tanging pagdadaldal ni Seven ang nag iingay sa loob ng kotse ni Ri.
This night is really going to be wild, i guess? I'm broken and my friends are just here para damayan ako. Medyo tinatamaad na din ako ng alak kaya hindi ko na din mapagilang umiyak ng maalala ko ang nangyari kanina.
Saint lied so numerous times I can't even count kung ilang beses na siyang nagsinungaling saakin.
The way he left me just because of his ex when i needed him the most. May sakit pero inuna niya pa ex niya. Siguro ay mahal pa niya siguro lang din ay panakip butas niya lang din ako. Nakakainis.
Naiinis ako dahil bakit pa ako nagbubulagbulagan .Naiinis ako dahil pinipilit ko ang sarili kong lumaban pa kung klaro na ang lahat.
Saint always chose her. His first and everything syempre he will chose her over me.
" Iyak mo lang" I heard Seven hushed habang si Ri ay nakatingin lang saakin at umiinom.
Ri's phone suddenly rang kaya agad niya itong sinagot. I wiped my tears at dineretsong ininum ang alak. Ang pait sobrang paint compare to what Saint giving me.
It sucks. My lovelife sucks!
" Fuck! Seven pwede ikaw na muna sa pinsan ko? I have emergency at home."
" Was it your mother again?"
" Yes. I'm really sorry, Hidam babawi ako"
" It's okay si Tita muna asikasuhin mo. Kailangan ka ni tita" I smiled. I watched him grabbed his things and exit the club tanging kami nalang ni Seven ang naiwan.
" Let's just forget everything tonight, Hidam? " Seven smiles and raised his glasses kaya tinanggap ko yun. We ordered again , we drink as if there's no tomorrow.
Sumayaw pa kami sa gitna not minding all the stares , not minding those who tries to flirt with us
Seven is already down at kahit hilong hili na din ako ay i still tried to call Nine's number and good thing he immediately answered. I told him to come and pick Seven.
I looked at my friend na nakadumog na sa lamesa. I still want to drink kaya nilagyan ko ulit ang baso ko but then a hand stopped it.
Hawak niya ang kamay ko at kinuha ang basong hawak ko. I tried to clear my vision to looked at him.
" Enough, Zy. Hindi mo na kaya." I smiled bitterly. It's been ...how long already? Kahit na umiikot ang paningin ko ay pinanood ko parin siyang lumuhod para magpantay kami. He gently pressed his fingers on my palm as he put the cup down.
" Let me take you home..." He gently said. I just smiled and nodded at him. Nine is already here too.
" Akin na kaibigan ko iuuwi ko siya sakanila."
" No need Nine. Take your brother home and I'll take him home safely. Don't worry I'll call his brother too."
" Siguraduhin mo lang dahil kapag may nakita akong hindi dapat kay Hidam bukas. I won't fucking hesitate to go to your university just to give you a damn black eye."
" I promised." I don't know what happened but all i know is i found myself at his car.
" I'm sorry Zy.."
" Why?" I asked.
" For hurting you..."
" Matagal na yun, kinalimutan ko na.."
" I heard you two broke up."
" yeah, we did. It hurts"
" I know , Can we talk when you're sober?"
" Sure. We'll do that.."
" Thank you, matulog ka nalang muna. Saka kita gisingin pag nasa bahay niyo na ikaw."
" Thanks ,Rich... Thank You Jorichie."
