Rhian's POV
"Good morning everyone. Thank you for coming." I said smiling.
"Ladies and Gentlemen, everyone has one opportunity to ask question to her. But she'll goin to decide kung sasagutin niya or hindi. This presscon is not for her, but rather for us. Para matapos nadin lahat nang issue." Sam added.
Yes, here I am. Finally. I'm a bit nervous. Diko alam ang takbo nang utak nila. I'm like waiting for them to kill me with questions.
"Anong ginagawa mo ngayon? I mean, iniwan mo ang showbiz." A lady asked.
"Wala naman. The past years I've been busy working with a friend sa isang race track niya." I honestly said. I've been busy with Joel.
"What made you come back?" Press.
"The guy who you guys saw sa hotel." I said.
"Who is he?" Press.
"Next question please. Let's not add more people." I humbled.
As far as I want to close the issue between me and Glaiza. I don't wnat other names to be hang with us. Ayokong mandamay.
"Magsstay kana ba dito for good?" Press.
"Actually no, limited lang yung time ko dito." I replied.
"Nakapag-usap naba kayo ni Glaiza?" Presss. Finally, someone started it. And I'm sure puro about na dito ang tanong niyan.
"Yup. We talked few nights ago. And okay na po kami. We learn to figure things out. She let me explain myself to her so I did. And know we're fine." I cheefully and honestly said.
"Anong masasabi mo na nasira yung 3 years dahil sayo?" Press.
"Ayoko sanang sagutin yan but I think I have to. Nasaktan ako. I have no idea until I came back here. So dun ko lang nalaman. It never cross my mind na it will goin to be that worse yung ginawa ko sakanya." I said.
"Di ka ba niya sinisisi?" Press.
"Who wouldn't? But she didn't put all the blame on me. Pero as I've said okay nakami." I answered.
"Everyone knows that Glaiza loved you, did you even felt the same?" Press.
Napaisip ako if I will going to answer that.
"Yes, i d-id. That's why I left. No further explanation." I lied, because the truth is I still do.
After that they seem to calm down at mukhang they finally got the answer they've been waiting.
"Wala naba kayong tanong guys? Let's close this conference then." Sam said.
"Let's just ask Ms. Rhian to give a short message for their fans before and for Glaiza. Is it possible ma'am?" Press.
"Uhh. Sure, of course. First of all I'm so sorry to all our fans. I became so selfish and never thought of you, and your expectations. I'm afraid for you to know that I'm a bisexual/lesbian as I'm afraid for myself to know it. And for Glaiza, thank you for listening to me. You have never change through the years. Thank you for the love you gave, I loved you. And now, as you said so, we'll work out our friendship. And everyone, Thank you for coming." I said.
They took several pictures tapos pumunta na ako nang dressing room.
"Mabait yung mga press, hindi ka kinain." Sam said.
"Yeah, I thought talga magiging harsh sila. Thank you pala." I replied.
"Pero hindi mo sinabi na formal ka nang aalis sa showbiz, so it means..." Sam said.
"No. I don't know. I'm not sure yet." I plainly said.
Things went well after I and Glaiza talked. It gave us reassurance of what we had is over but what I feel for her still lingers. Who have thought that the one who've run away will be the one who'll lose. No one knows how life does play.
I am laying on my couch when I heard my phone ringing...
"Hello. I miss you." I said right away.
"I miss you too, can't come home tonight. Pwede bang ikaw nalang pumunta dito?" Joel asked.
"I wanted to, pero ayokong magdrive." I said.
"Okay. Wait for me there hon! Be there in 2 more days. I have to go, just checking you." Then he hanged up.
I'm really missing my other half, my brother, best friend. We talk like this, but we both know na friends lang kami. He's dating someone. So talagang wala. Siguro, we're just meant to catch each other when one of us is falling apart.
I don't know what to do, so I texted Glaiza since I'm working on our friendship thingy.
To: Glaiza de Castro
"Hey? Hang out tonight? So boring."
I'm trying so hard to make everything lighter when talking or doing things with her. Not so long...
From: Glaiza de Castro
"I wanted to, but I'm hanging out with my guys and other friends. Wanna tag along? Chynna and Gina will be there. So just bring Sam with you then."
I think this is way better than going to a party with just the circle of friends we used to have. I said yes and asked about their plans. I even texted Sam which is obviously will tag along with me.
Glaiza's POV
We are at the VIP suite of this exclusive bar. It's been quite a long time simula nung makasama ko ang 'bar' friends ko. I missed them!!!
They all arrive at the expected time even Rhian. She's wearing a simple black crop top and denim distressed jeans. I'm just wearing jeans anyway kasi I don't have time to go back sa condo. I've been busy working lately.
I introduced my friends to Sam, Gina and Rhian. Few minutes later, I felt Rhian's phone vibrating because she's
sitting next to me. I don't know who's calling her but she look at me as if waiting for my permission. I nodded unknowingly.
I barely give shit with whatever Rhian is doing dahil nga sa usapan naming 'being shitty friends'. I have to act whoever's infront of me. But it does help, kasi feel ko nabawasan naman. The excitement when she's texting me is still there. Pero hindi na katulad nang dati.
"Oh sinong tumawag?" Sam asked Rhian, di ko napansin na bumalik na siya.
"Si Joel, nasa suite na siya. He told me in two days pa siya uuwi kaya I tag along with you guys tapos he's suprising me pala." She answered happily.
"Papuntahin mo siya dito." Sam smiled.
"Yup, he's coming." Rhian replied.
Oh yeah he's coming. This will be weird. I bet he knows who I am. The boyfriend is going to meet the ex-without-label-girlfriend. I laughed at my own thoughts. Ano nanaman ba ito.
Instead of thinking, Nag focus nalang ako sa pagshot nang hard liquior. Namiss ko din to, and I think I need it para manhid ako later.
"Hey. Hinay hinay lang." Rhian said while tapping my back.
I smiled at her. Gosh. Why can't you be mine? Why do you keep running away? You are right next to me, but you are not into me.
"Hon!" Someone shouted...
