Job

"Are you kidding me Zeke?" I asked immediately after I heard what he said. But he didn't answered and just looked away,Wow. I know I shouldn't making this a big deal but.....

People should know the things to be said to a broken hearted person. They should choose the set of words they're going to spit infront of us. People should remember that. Not all of us accept those words. Dapat hindi ko ito pinapalaki but the way he said it, It somehow offended me. In any way, That words were offending. Because you were trying hard to fix me, You were trying hard to let me know you can fix me. Like I said before, I don't need any pity from them. I can live without their help.

"I was just kidding" He finally said. I felt like all my blood went to my head. No, Zeke you shouldn't be kidding a broken heart. I stood up and looked down at him

"We should call this a night" I said and turn my back at him, Papaalis na sana ako ngunit may naalala pa ako kaya humarap ulit ako kay Zeke

"By the way, Thank you for the dinner" I smiled at Zeke who were now standing and a great crease were appearing on his forehead

"Look" He said which made me stop, "I'm sorry" and I sensed a very sincere tone which almost makes my heart melt, Almost but not quite. The damage has been done. H ehave spitted words that won't make me feel okay. Because not all things can be fixed by the word, Sorry. The damage has done and nothing can fix it by just saying sorry, kahit sincere pa ito. I faced Zeke, bumungad sa akin ang muhka niyang punong-puno ng pagsisi. What for?

"You should not say it right to my face. Kahit joke pa iyon it really looked so offending on my side, Na para bang binibiro mo ako, Na para bang lahat ng ito ay biro at para sayo lahat ng bagay ay biro" He looked hurt with what I said so I looked away. I didn't intend to hurt him. Hindi ako ganon, I don't hurt the person who already hurt me. I don't do fight backs.

"I should get going na, Thanks for the night, Zeke" Paalam ko. I walked away.

I groaned when I felt the sun touches my face. Kinapa ko ang aking cellphone 8:14 Kahit pa antok na antok pa ako ay tumayo na ako at naligo na dahil meron pa akong pupuntahan ngayong umaga.

Pinagpag ko ang aking shirt, Pupunta ako kay Ate Maddie hihingi ako ng trabaho. Kahit and sadya ko talaga dito sa Coron ay pahinga at bakasyon ngunit bored na ako. Araw araw nalang ako nagswiswimming o di kaya nakatunganga dito sa resort, I need to keep myself busy kahit isang waitress or front desk clerk,Okay na ako doon. I went to Ate Maddie' suite and buzzed the doorbell.

"Wait lang" I heard her shouted. When she opened the door, She looked like she just 'you know' napangiwi tuloy ako sa aking iniisip kaya tinaasan niya ako ng kilay.Sino ba ang hindi magiisip ng ganoon naka-bathrobe lang siya at yung buhok niya sobrang gulo. Ngumisi ako sa kanya at tumaas ang kanyang kilay

"Pasok" She motioned me to enter and so I did, "Ano palang sadya mo?" Nginuso niya ako sa sofa kaya umupo ako 'don at sunod naman siyang umupo sa tabi ko
