CONFRONTATION

Astrid's pov:

I'm here sa location that Venice sent me yesterday, it's a coffee shop. I can say, I like it here.

I roam my eyes inside the place and immediately spotted Venice.

"Hi" I simply greeted her. She looks at me and also smiled.

"Hello, Queen. Upo ka na" she motioned to the chair infront of her seat.

I nodded.

But before I sit, I took a glance outside. I saw Mackenzie and our friends there, together with Jillian's driver slash bodyguard. Nalaman kasi ng mommy ni Jillian na si Gail lang ang nagddrive for us. She said na we're too young pa.

"what would you want to talk about ba?" I asked Venice.

"I'm going back to America" she answered.

So? Anong gagawin ko?

"If you're wondering why I'm telling you this. Well because, I wanted to say sorry"

"Queen, it's been 3 years. Still, galit ka parin sa'kin. And I swear, hindi talaga ako ang nagsnitch non" she stated.

Is she talking about the you know?

"kahit hindi ka pa nagsosorry, matagal na kitang pinatawad, Venice" I said.

"and what do you mean hindi ikaw? If not you, then sino?"

"I've been telling you this before pa, it's that Maya girl" she said and rolled her eyes.

"hindi talaga ako maniniwala sa'yo kung ganan ka mag-act"

"okay. I asked Kao, your friend na kapatid nung SSGL president sa school natin dati" she started.

"kelan mo tinanong?"

"after nung sa bathroom thingy? Nung ayaw mo maniwala sa'kin na si Maya nga" once again, umirap sya.

Hays, buti nalang mahaba pasenya ko sa babaeng 'to. Sanay na ako.

"so I asked Kao to ask her ate kung sino yung last log-in sa FB page ng UnivTea..and turns out, si Maya nga" she stated.

"so si Maya nga?" I asked, pertaining doon sa snitching.

"yep. And I'm so smart kasi naisip ko 'yon" she said and took a sip to ther matcha latte.

Now I'm just looking at her. Thinking why pinaabot pa namin ng 3 years bago mag-usap.

"what?" she asked ng pataray.

"oh you don't believe me? Call that Kao friend of yours, right now" she said full of confident.

"no need. I believe you, you were my best friend after all" I smiled.

"yeah...were" she said. Nag-iwas sya ng tingin.

Mukang napansin nya sina Kenzie sa bintana. "oh you're with them pala" she said.

"yeah, gusto nila sumama eh" I answered.

"bagay kayo ni Kenzie" she randomly said.

"ha?"

"hatdog. I mean- it's too obvious Queen, you like each other" sagot nya.

"thank you?"

"you're welcome. And don't worry Queen, I don't really like Mackenzie romantically..inaasar lang kita" she said and laugh.
