KATHRYN's POV

"You what?" hindi maka-paniwalang tanong niya. I was confused too. I was confused why did I say those words.

Damn it!

I shook my head. "N-nevermind. Umuwi nalang tayo." malamig kong sabi habang naka-iwas ng tingin.

"You told me, you love me, don't you?" seryoso niyang sabi sa'kin. "Pero kung ano pa man ang sabihin mo, I can't love you back. Oo, kasal tayo pero sa papel lang. Jasmine is better than yo--"

Tears welled on my eyes. "Tangna! Tama na! Tama na please! Nasasaktan na'ko!" hagulgol ko. I intently looked at him. "Ang sakit sakit na kasi. Ang sakit na. Kaya pwede ba,tama na.."

Tumahimik siya. He pursed his lips and took a deep breathe. I held my head down at pasimpleng pinahid ang mga luhang walang kapaguran sa pag-agos. Why did I just love a jerk like him? I should not. Kung natuturuan lang ang puso.

"Kathryn." he called me. Hindi ko siya tinignan, "I-I'm sorry. Sorry." huling saad niya bago umalis sa harap ko.

Sorry? Fck him! Ano ba magagawa ng isang sorry?

"Chandria naman! Ba't mo agad na sinabi!" bungad ni Miles sa'kin. Ngumiti lang ako ng malungkot. The wound is still fresh and still here. Masakit pa rin. I can't tell Miles 'bout this. Baka umiyak lang ako.

"What should she do? Itago?" sabi ni Julia. Napa-hilot naman ako sa sentido ko.

Miles heaved a sigh. "Better. I didn't mean na itago lang habambuhay, what I mean is 'wag naman sanang biglain. Nabigla 'yung tao kaya hindi niya alam ang sasabihin. We know Daniel, he always choose the latter, and chose to hurt her for saving his ego."

"Nabigla lang ako. Nasorabahan sa emosyon kaya nadaplis ko."

They looked at me. Concern flashed on their eyes. Ayoko ng kaawaan ako, nakakainis lang. Ayoko ng awa mula sa mga tao. Sometimes, pity will never help us.

"Pero sana -"

I cutted Miles off. "Tama na muna. Everything happened already, we can't undo it. Kung ayaw niya sa'kin, edi ayaw." sabi ko at umalis na.

Napunta ako sa gymnasium namin. Maingay doon. I'm thorn whether sisilip ako or not. Para kasing mayroong parte sa'kin na sinasabing 'wag akong pumasok. Should I? Napahinga ako ng malalim bago sundin ang gusto ko, papasok ako.

Nagulat nalang ako nang magulo ang lahat. They we're sorrounded, holding a rose. Napakunot ang noo ko. Napa-aga ata ang Valentines? O baka may program na hindi ko alam?

"Miss, anong meron?" tanong ko sa babaeng kanina pa kinikilig.

She looked at me for a second. "Si Daniel at Jasmine. Ang sweet nila."

My heart broke, again for the nth time. Napatingin ako sa center. I saw Daniel hugging Jasmine, she's holding a boquet of tulips. Nakita ko kung paano siya umiyak habang akap-akap si Daniel. This scene pains me a lot. He was hugging her as if she's the only girl he wants to be. Kahit kailan, hindi niya ako niyakap ng ganyan.

No, he never hug me.

I wiped my tears as I ran as fast as I could. Siguro, ang pagtakas nalang ang tanging solusyon. Running away is my forte. Hindi ko alam kung ilang metro ang tinakbo ko. Gusto kong tumakbo lang ng tumakbo. Someone bumped me kaya napaluhod ako.
