Hindi pa rin ako confident sa plano ni Austin ngayong araw, pero sabi nito we should go for it, and if it doesn't work, we'll find another way. What I would do, I wouldn't want to cross our paths again. He understood my sentiment and he wouldn't want to step into my past relationship with them, but since something was developing between us, I cannot just ignore what he thinks.

What happened between me and Austin still confused me though. I think he was just finding himself out on this spectacle we had, but I also don't want to disregard his feelings because, in the first place, he opened up to me which I think he never did to Kady, Xander, Brad, Marina, and Keegan. 

Kung ano man ang mangyari ngayong araw at kung isang malaking epic fail ang plano ni Austin, hindi ko naman siya masisisi dahil in the first, I agreed with his idea.

He came into the room knocking to speak for his presence. "Are you ready?" he asked, lifting my head to see his face. 

Bago ako nagbigay ng sagot sa kanya ay napahugot ako nang malalim na hininga. I think this is normal when I'm about to meet the person who ruined my peace of mind a few weeks ago. When I let it go, I slowly nodded my head giving an affirmation that I was ready for it.

He smiled. "Great, I'll meet you downstairs, okay?"

"Alright, see you. . ." I uttered then he left and brought my posture slouching like a c-word because deep inside of me, I was so scared and anxious. I feel like I couldn't do it, but I feel like this is also my chance to get that peace I was looking for.

When I finally got the courage, I stood on my feet and grabbed my transparent tote bag. I went downstairs and met Austin outside. The others left earlier to go to some beaches, but because Austin has to mentor Lukas' group of friends, he couldn't join, as I too, as I'm joining him at the Cloud Nine beach.

I was only wearing some board shorts and a blue-white ombre top while Austin was on his board shorts and a sando, blatantly exposing the tight muscle on his arms and shoulder. As soon as I hopped behind him on the bike, and got on the road. I was holding onto his shoulder while my head was already flying back to Manila.

At first, hindi ko alam kung anong sasabihin ko to Lukas. Gusto ko siyang suntukin, sabunutan, at jombagin, pero baka isipin niya na sobra-sobra naman ako at hindi pa maka-move on. E, sino bang putangina ang makaka-move on sa panlolokong ginawa niya sa akin? Porque ba gwapo siya at in-secret ang relationship namin, babalewalain na niya 'yon?

Bullshit siya.

But I thought to myself not to make any scene there. Ayokong gumawa ng scandal. Kapag ibang scandal ang usapan, pwede pa siguro.

Aside from him, nandiyan si Quentin na ghinost ko matapos kong umalis sa Cloud Nine kahapon nang walang paalam. I didn't pick his calls nor answer his text messages to him asking where I was. Hindi naman niya kailangan malaman 'yon. Now that I knew, he was just only part of a quick bliss I did.
