Special Chapter: The Past (Jeric & Tiffany’s Love Story)

 

-Tiffany’s POV-

 

The way Jeric stared at Shelley’s eyes earlier says a lot. Those words he said would definitely make a girl fall in love with him. Ewan ko lang kung tumalab yung mga sinabi niya kay Shelley. KIlala niyo naman yun, di madaling mabola!

 

I was sitting in front of my piano when our maid approached me.

 

“Ma’am, itatapon ko na po ba ito?”

 

“Wait lang, patingin muna.” Kinuha ko yung box at tiningnan ko yung nasa loob. May video cam saka isang set ng cd, scrapbook at jersey. These are the things that I kept in our attic, 3 years ago before I went to New York. “Ako na lang yung bahala dito.”

 

Isa-isa kong nilabas yung laman nung box. Una kong tiningnan yung scrapbook. Eto yung ginawa ko noon na scrapbook nung anniversary namin ng ex ko. It contains all our happy moments together. Moments that turned into memories. Memories that should’ve been forgotten.

 

Ngayon ko lang na-realized, ang tyaga ko pala gumawa ng mga ganitong bagay nung college pa ko! I continue flipping the pages. Nandun yung mga stolen pictures ko sa kanya during their training pati sa mga games nila, picture niyang tulog habang nakapatong sa shoulder ko yung ulo niya, mga wacky pictures namin and too many to mention.

 

Yes, we were too sweet back then but now, we don’t even know how to approach each other. We treat eachothers like strangers. We’re just too good ignoring each other now.

 

Nagkakilala lang kami dahil sa bestfriend kong die-hard fan ng basketball team ng school namin. I came from UST and I took up a pre-med course there.

 

Lagi akong niyayaya nung friend ko na manuod ng practice dahil sa isang player na crush niya. During that time, wala talaga akong pakialam about sports. Di ko naman kasi makakain yun. Pero di ko akalain na doon ko pala makikilala ang isang Jeric Allen Uy Teng.

 

*flashback*

 

Niyaya ako nung friend kong si Kirsten na manuod  ng game noon sa araneta. Di ako dapat sasama sa kanya pero she’s too makulit! Siya na nga yung nagbayad ng ticket ko eh and it’s a patron one.

 

“Ang adik mo din talaga no?” I told her while munching some popcorn.

 

“Oo naman Bessie! Adik na adik talaga ako kay baby forts! Go Forts!!!!!” sabi niya. Narinig siguro nung Fortuna yung sinigaw niya kaya lumingon sa pwesto namin at nginitian niya naman yung friend ko.

 

If I know, ilang beses nahimatay sa kilig tong babaeng ito! Pero infairness, cute yung Forts. Kahit di siya ganun katangkad, nadadala siya ng smile niya. Ang cute!

 

Nag-start na yung game at nag-start na din ako maging ‘PG’. Oo, tama kayo, patay-gutom. Panay kasi ang bili ko ng mga snacks.

 

Infairness, magagaling naman yung mga tigers. They’re up by 8 points against AdU. There are 10 men in the court but there’s one guy that caught my attention. He’s wearing jersey #16 and his last name is ‘Teng’.
