Confession Of A Traitor

Weeks had been passed and I became close to Ken's friends that technically also became my friend too. I get to know them deeper.

Janice is the daughter of Tita Lily , the owner of the Cali Cafe. She is also a supreme student president of their school and she's also a grade 12 student.

Cheska is a Kpop fangirl, the kpop group she stan the most is BTS. She is the only daughter and both of her parents are attorneys. She is a first year college student with the degree of fashion designing.

Henry or so we called Riri is also a first year college student with the degree of fine arts. As he said, he live to perform on the stage. He studied in another university 1 hour away from the Cali Cafe. It is rare for him to join us sometimes.

Adam or Ada is a grade 11 student. He is the youngest among us. He played tennis and he joins us after his training session. He said he like to play tennis to gain the attention of men. Well, he is most likey the most flirtatious among us.

Lastly, Felix or so they called him Faye. I have this feeling that I can't call him Faye, I see him as a man. Probably I got a crush on him.  He said that Felix is a playgirl. He likes to toy mens feelings and leave them. He  add that Felix is the most girly among them. Ken said Felix like to wear short skirts and heavy make up, playing dress up all the time.

I didn't know much about him because he's busy. Ken said that Felix isn't like that before, he always take  time to meet with them. That  made me think that he probably is ignoring me. But why would he ignore me? Did I do something wrong with him? Or he just utterly didn't like me.

I stayed with Ken most of the time in school. Sometimes I notice that Sandra wanted to talk to me but I mostly ignore her.  Why is she trying to talk to me? Does she want some sympathy? Or most likely she want me to accept their relationship? Even in the deepest fiery pits of hell, I'll never accept them!!

Eventhough I try to ignore them, I simply cannot hide the fact that my heart pangs when I see them both together, smiling, holding hands and flirting. I sometimes crying in my room alone silently, it's still hurts alot. 7 years... 7 years I hold feelings for him. I still remember the day he save me like the prince in the story I read when I was a kid.

I tried to be strong and endure this 'till the end of this school year, I will never see them again.

Uwian na. Nag-arrange na kami para umuwi.

Oh it reminds me. "Ken hindi muna ako sasama ngayon ha. May bibilhin pa kasi ako."

"Okay. I'll tell them." He agreed.

He waited for me to finish, sabay daw kaming lalabas. Nung nasa exit na kami ng classroom ay biglang lumitaw si Sandra sa harapan namin, blocking our way. She looks like an ant as we are taller than her. Hanggang dibdib namin siya. Well, Ken is atleast 2 inches than me.

Napataas ang kilay ko habang nakahalukipkip. "Get out of our way!"
She looks scared but determine. "Can we talk, Elara?"

"What is there to talk about?" I coldly stated.

"Please, Elara just for minute of your time." She pleaded.

She looks so sad but as they said, looks can be deceiving.

"Hey Sandra, stay awa--" I stop Ken.

"Fine let's talk." I turn my gaze at Ken them smile. "Mauna ka na Ken, kakausapin ko lang siya."

Nagdadalawang isip si Ken. "But--"

I look at him with reassurance. "It's alright. I can handle myself."
