It has been two days since I posted our pictures on IG. Ni ha, ni Ho wala akong narinig kay Mika. I guess I need to try harder. So, I decided to call her friend Kim Fernandez. Parang kailangan ko na kase na reinforcement para makalapit or magkacontact kay Mika. Hindi na pwde tong ganito, nauunahan na ako nung pa-hot na actor na yun. Sus.

Parang mas lamang pa nga ako ng dalawang paligo dun sa Joseph Marco na yun. May abs siya, meron din ako nun. Maganda ipin niya, mas maganda yung ipin ko. Macho siya, excuse me pero sumisigaw ang biceps ko. Kulot siya, hey straight ako, yun palang lamang na ko. Actor siya, let me remind you na meron din akong sitcom sa TV5, ung No foul, No harm, so even kami dun. At nakakapagbasketball ako, eh siya ba? Teka, bakit ko ba kinocompare sarili ko sa kanya?

"Hello, Kim?"

"Oh, napatawag ka, "disappointment"?", wow. Hello, Kim ha. Hello. Ganun pala talaga tingin nila sa akin. That fact saddens me. Fuck.

"Uhmm.. ano kase.. uhmmm. Kim...", badtrip kailan pa ko natorpe sa mga ganto?

"Si Mika?", she cut me off.

"Oo sana eh.", I was shy like hell. Akala ko kay Mika lang ako mahihiya. Little did I know, mahihiya din pala sa ako sa mga kaibigan niyang somehow nadisappoint ko. "Pwede mo ba akong tulungan, Kim? I want her back.", better be straight forward. Baka maabutan na naman kase ako ng hiya ko eh.

"Hindi kami papayag, Kief. We dont want you to ruin her again.", she exclaimed. Did I really ruin her? Ganun kalake ang epekto ng ginawa ko sa kanya. After what Kim said, I doubt if I can still win her, but again, I need to try. Kung wala, at least nagtry ulit ako. "She loved you, Kief, with all her heart for that matter. What you did was absurd!", para akong sinampal sa sinabi niya. Ang sakit lang.

"Sorry,", was all that came out of my mouth.

"If you dont mind me asking, Kief, what happened ba?", and with that I explained my side. I explaimed everything, mula sa pagiging cold ko hanggang sa halos sirain ko ang buhay ko dahil wala na si Mika sa akin. Hindi ko inattempt pagtakpan ang sarili ko. "If I were to ask, I wont forgive you, Kief."

Hindi ako makapagsalita. "But at least give it another try. We are Mika's friends and whatever or whoever makes her happy, andun kami. Please make sure not to mess this up again, yun ay kung bibigyan ka niya ng chance."

She

I already allowed Joseph to court me but I made things clear between the two of us. Na hindi porket pinayagang manligaw, ibig sabihin wala ng possibility na mabasted. And he said ok.

For ths past few days, my life has been smooth sailing. On Candy Mag's July issue, I posed for Month's Favorite Athlete together with Niko Rodriguez who's also a hottie. More more projects for me. Nakakatuwa lang. Blessings were coming at wala akong karapatang tumanggi. Well my life was amazing not until yesterday when I read Kim's (Fernandez) answer in her ask.fm account.

pwede na po bang ligawan si Mika?
hindi pa. 3 month rule magagalit si popoy.

At nagulantang ako. I know Kim all my life at alam ko ang mga ganyan-ganyan niya. She's up to something. I thought I need to call her to check what's with her.

"Hoy! Anong problema mo?", I asked as soom as she answered the phone.

"Goodmorning, din. Yeye."

"Ano yung meron sa sagot mo sa ask.fm mo?"

"Alin dun?", ay shit lang, "madaming nagtatanong saken dun."

"Sino si Popoy?"

"Boyfriend ni Basha?"

"Shemay naman Kim eh, wag ako please!", and she laughed. "So, sino nga yun?"

"Si Popoy nga.", and she laughed again. Nakakabwisit na to ah. "Nagagalit na nga siya kasi may nanliligaw na nga sayo."

"Are we talking about Kiefer here, Kim?", I asked her and she laughed. Baliw na ata tong babaeng toh.

"Eh kung sabihin kong, Oo?", and I thought I was choked up with something. Sumakit ulo ko bigla. "Unblock him on IG, Ye, and you will know what I am talking about."

"Bakit di mo na lang kase sabihin sa akin?"

"Mas okay kung ikaw ang makakita, para first hand ang information. Go, unblock him now. I think you need to know what he's up to. Yung fans niyo nga nagkakagulo na eh. Ayan ha, may hint ka na. Sige na, bye!"

Ayun nga, nawarla ang ganda ko. I didnt want to unblock him, pwede ko naman kaseng malaman yun through tagged pictures. Sus, Miefs pa, eh walang pinapalampas na ganap yun, kahit nga simpleng like lang namin sa pictures nino.

But as what Kim had said, I unblocked  him and what I saw next made my heartbeat faster than normal. Our old photos were reposted and one of them had a caption that says "kieferravena15: Sana ako na lang, sana ako na lang ulit.", gets ko na kung bakit sabi ni Kim na Popoy sa ask.fm niya.

Nakakaloka. Bakit siya gumaganito ngayon? My phone rang and I picked the call up. "Ano nakita mo na?"

"Kim, ano to? Bakit ganito nararamdaman ko?", my heart still beats so fast I could hardly breathe.

"Naku, patay tayo jan. Mukhang nangangamoy balikan!"

"Tse!", and I hanged the phone up.Anong nangangamoy balikan ang sinasabi niya? Baliw na talaga ang nga kaibigan ko!

I looked at the door when our door bell rang and I stood up to check what was that. What I saw next, hay, I didnt expect that at all.

A pair of the newest Air Max in front of our door steps but no one was their. Whoever sent this really know that I appreciate sneakers more than flowers or chocolates or even going out for a date. A picked up the pair of shoes and I was totally amazed. Super nice.

I saw a card outside its box.

Babe,

I  still cant breathe! I always cant.

I dropped the shoes all of a sudden. Nanghina kase ako sa nabasa ko. I love you, too, Babe. I still do.
