Aiah's POV.

Life is cruel and complicated.

It's always the wrong path.

Bakit nagustuhan ko si Kennedy Devonne Roces? I've known and been with her for months already. Slowly, I am beginning to like her more than just a friend. Signs are there, kahit ang mga kaibigan ko nakita nila yung motives niya. And I believed in those actions and words. But at the end, ako rin pala ang talo. What's worst is that hindi ko na siya gusto. Slowly, my feelings for her are growing, until I totally fallen in love with her.

No one knows. It's only me and my stupid heart.

"Bakit sayo pa tumibok ang puso ko, Kennedy?" I cried out.

Sa buhay ko, I get always what I want. If hindi iyon ibibigay sa akin, I will do everything para lang makuha ko. But this one is different. Kennedy changed me. She showed how big the world is. It's not always about the wants. You need to balance everything to have a healthy life for yourself.

"Ipaglalaban pa ba kita?" I whispered while hugging my two legs, crying on the floor.

Never ito nangyare sa akin when Max cheated on me. All I did that time ay nagpaka-lasing and nag-bar until I totally remove the pain he made it to me. Pero ngayon, hindi ko magawa uminom or mag-bar or be just crazy. Because I'm still having second thoughts. She made me have second thoughts. Kasi pag alam kong masasaktan lang ako, I will let go. Pero nakakapit pa rin ako sa kanya.

It's been 2 days ng huling usap namin ni Ken. I noticed na hindi ko siya nakikita. Maybe she's avoiding me now. Well, it's good. But I need to help myself. To make up my mind. 

"Hayop ka talaga! Dahil lang sa barbie, sinabi mo na lahat kay Kennedy." Sermon nila Jhoanna at Colet kay Stacey dito sa room ko.

They all know ano nangyare, and nalaman din namin na-snitch si Stacey.

"Limited edition kase." Sagot naman ni Stacey.

"Uto-uto ka rin. Kaya mag-bestfriend talaga kayo ni Shee eh." Inis na sabi ni Maloi.

I was sitting here, nakatago ang mukha sa legs ko while hugging them. I just looked outside of my window and think by myself. I just ignored my friends na nag-aawayan na naman sila.

"Maganda yung movie na 'Elementals'. Napanood mo na ba iyon?" Gwen approached me. I just shake my head no. Umupo siya sa tabi ko at tumingin din sa labas.

"It's a cute love story. Fire and Water. Alam natin na hindi compatible ang water and fire right?" She asked me again. I just looked at her.

"But that movie shows that everything is possible because of love." Does she know? Na mahal ko na si Ken.

"Trust me, I can see it. You are my best friend, Aiah. And totoo ang mga sinabi namin, Ken likes you back as well." No, Gwen. Huwag mo rin ako paasahin.

"But--"

"Yes. there's a but." She answered me. "Love is inevitable, Aiah. Gusto ko lang sabihin kung ano ginagawa ng pagmamahal, when you truly feel it. Parehas sa inyong dalawa. Now, go and don't hold back. Win her." Gwen hold my hands at na-touch naman ako sa sinabi niya.

I hugged her at napa-iyak ulit. Kahit ang tahimik lang ni Gwen, I know she's the one who can understand everything. Parang siya yung ate ko naman dahil siya lang naman ang may sense na kausapin kaysa sa iba naming baliw na kaibigan.

"Gwenny! Bakit mo na naman pina-iyak si ate Aiah?" I heard Sheena's voice.

Lahat tuloy napa-tingin sa akin.
