Cheering for Love's Game.

"Gaga! Ano, we'll just enjoy ourselves there and leave you here? Mag-ha-heart-heart ka lang sa mga taken pictures namin kung kailan kami magpopost?! No. Whether you like it or not, you're coming with us!" Yuen went to the house early with Steven.

Buti na lang naroon sa baba 'yong boyfriend niya at hindi kami naririnig dito dahil nakakahiya talaga. I messaged the Group Chat last night that I won't be joining them in going to Siargao. They had already planned this outing after Yuen's 7/11 opening. Plano ko namang sumama noong plinano nila 'to, kaso tinamad lang talaga ako ngayong paalis na.

Ang aga niya pumunta dito, gusto ko pa matulog...

"Ayaw ko nga sumama..." I groanly said. "My body still hurts from cleaning the apartment yesterday, Yu..." I'm still lying down on my bed, it's still six in the morning.

I really don't want to go, my body is so tired, and I don't feel like going out. I just want to sleep and stay locked in my apartment. She stood up from my gaming chair and sat beside me. Hinawakan n'ya ang kamay ko malapit sa palapulsuhan.

"Tsk. Come on, Nic... Come with us, let yourself enjoy outside naman instead of just lying around in your room. Enjoy life..." Yuen said persuasively, with a convincing look in her eyes. I looked at the ceiling and then back at her. Pinikit ulit ang mga mata.

Bumukas ulit ang mata ko ng marinig kong huminga siya ng malalim. She stood up and placed her hands on her hips. "Unsa na diay ka karon manok nga ga lom-lom?" She rolled her eyes at me. She started speaking in her language again even though I didn't understand.

She stayed quiet for a while. She stared into my eyes as if searching for something. I chuckled. Mukha siyang maniquin.

"I know you still can't get over him." My smile faded at her words.

"What the," I let out a heavy breath.

It's been two years since we parted ways... It will be three years this April. What the heck is happening to me... Two years have passed, but why can't my mind completely erase him? Can't it really be deleted? Do I really need to buy a new SIM card for my mind? Or palitan ko nalang kaya utak ko.

Umupo ako at napasapo sa noo ko. Feeling frustrated once again. I don't know what to say. I got stuck by her words. Hindi ako makailag. What she said was true.

Freak, 2 years, Monica. Wake up! Ano ba!

"Why are you bringing him here? Hindi naman siya yung dahilan kung bakit ayaw kong sumama, I already moved on, Yu." I sarcastically rolled my eyes on her.

In denial na naman...

She laughed. "Come on, Nic. You can't lie to me, hindi ko man alam what you are feeling right there," Tinuro niya 'yong puso ko. "But with just one look in your eyes, I can easily see that you're hurt. Girl, it's been 2 years, move forward. I know it's not that easy, but please don't stay in that phase... Rise up, the person has already risen. And, I know you can do it, just have faith, okay?" She kissed the top of my head and stood.

"Start packing there, you have no choice because I'm not giving you multiple choices." Tumalikod na siya at naglakad.

Maglalakad na sana siya palabas ngunit tumingin pa siya ulit sa'kin. "I will help you cure your wounds." She winked her eyes at me and smiled. I laughed at that.
