(Cherry's POV)

Pagkatapos nung nangyari ay hinanap ko kaagad si Nike pero hindi ko siya makita. I need to find her before anyone else know that I am a member of a gang in the PH. I sighed in frustration. I didn't expect that this will happen.

Nakokonsensya ako. It's just that I need to do this mission that Venus gave me. My mission is, I need to give information to Venus on what Nike is doing here in SoKor until the school year is going to end. And the prize? Me and Luke can get out from the freaking gang that we entered.

That's why, Nike musn't know my true identity. My true name is Cherry Villafuerte and Venus did all the papers para mapalitan ang name ko into Cherry Kang for this stupid mission. Nagulat nalang ako nang masali ako sa S10 and Venus told me that chosing me as one of the member of S10 is great. She said I should act as Nike's true friend and secretly give to Venus informations about what Nike's doing here in SoKor.

I was spacing out when Yuki interfered. "Hey." He said with a low tone voice. "Hey." I said. "What happened? Why are you spacing out Ms. Kang?" Tanong niya. "Nothing." Sagot ko. Yuki musn't know this too. Baka mapaalis ako sa S10.

"Really?"

"Really." Sabi ko naman. "Then why aren't you having fun? Is there any problem? C'mon, you can tell me everything if you want." Sabi niya. Yuki's too sweet. "Nope. I don't have any problem." Sabi ko.

Bigla nalang siyang ngumiti at hinala ako papuntang park na ewan. There we stared at a river with a calming wind caressing my cheeks and the wind was blowing my hair a little bit. "The view's nice right?" Sabi niya. Tumango naman ako ng nakangiti. Pinapagaan ng hangin yung pakiramdam ko.

"Yes." Sagot ko. "You know what, you can tell me now what's bothering you." Sabi niya. Napa-sigh naman ako. "I'm sorry Yuki but I can't tell you." Sabi ko. Nagtaka naman siya. "Why?" Tanong niya.

"I just can't. It's just that it's very confidential." Sabi ko. Tumango naman siya.

"So I guess we will just going to stay here until you forgot about your problem."

Kinabukasan...

Hindi ako pinapansin ni Nike. Syempre, in-expect ko na iyon. Nagtaka naman ang buong S10 sa inaasal ni Nike sa akin. Ewan ko ba, but may something na kumikirot sa dibdib ko. I treated Nike as a true friend not because of what Venus said, I treated her like a true friend because I she's a good person and I wanted her to be my friend.

Tahimik lang ako at nakayuko. Ayokong makita nila akong naiiyak lalo na si Nike. Baka isipin niya na umaarte pa rin ako. Nung lunch sabay kaming kumain pero hindi kami magkatabi ni Nike. Tahimik lang pa rin ako. Umalis naman si Nike tas sinundan siya ng pinsan niya.

Pagbalik nila nabigla nalang ako ng sinampal ako ni Irene. "Walang hiya ka! Traydor ka! Madapaka!" Sigaw niya sa akin habang pinipigilan siya ni Drake. "Babe, calm down." Sabi ni Drake. "Ayyy hindi ako mag c-calm down dito! Puta!" Sigaw niya habang pumipiglas na kay Drake.

Napahawak naman ako sa pisngi ko. I want to cry already. Oo, malakas ang sampal and it hurts but...mas nasaktan ako sa sinabi ni Irene. Wait. Bakit ako nasasaktan? E totoo naman yung sinabi ni Irene eh. Na-traydor akong kaibigan.

"What is happening? Why did you slapped her?" Tanong ni Yuki. "That girl is a traitor! She fooled Nike! She fooled US! She's not from the States and her mom isn't a american! She's a pure filipina and her true name is Cherry Villafuerte! She's a member of a gang who killed Nike's younger sister!" Sigaw ni Irene habang tinuro-turo ako.

Napayuko naman ako. Nakatingin sa amin ang public. May naririnig na akong mga taong nagbubulungan. May nararamdaman na rin akong mga taong nakatingin sa amin. Sht.

"What?" Hindi makapaniwalang tanong ni Yuki tas napatingin siya sa akin. "You heard it right Yuki. She's a traitor and she is just here to send information about what's happening to Nike here to her gang leader! She's a traitor and she isn't a true friend!" Sigaw ni Irene at nag-walk out. Sinundan naman siya ng boyfriend niya.

"Wait Irene!" Sigaw ni Edzel tas sinundan nilang lahat ang mga Forteza except kay Yuki. Kahit hindi ko nakikita sa mga mata niya, halatang galit na galit siya sa akin. "We need to talk." Sabi niya at hinila ako papunta doon sa park na pinuntahan namin kahapon. Same place.

"What was that?" Kalmado niyang tanong pero pansin ko sa boses niya ang pagka-cold niya. "It's not what you think--"

"THEN EXPLAIN!" Galit niyang sigaw. Dahil sa pagsigaw niya, hindi ko na mapigilang umiyak. "I-I need to do this because I wanted leave that freaking gang! If I completed this mission...me and Loki's older brother can leave the gang that we entered so you can't blame me if I traited all of you." Sabi ko tas napaluhod na sa sahig.

"I want to have a new life. I want a normal life that's why I traited all of you. Even if I am doing this mission, I truly treated all of you as true friend to me. Knowing that I am fooling all of you hurts me. I am sorry. P-please forgive me." Sabi ko. Humahagulgol na ako sa pag-iyak. Naramdaman ko namang lumuhod si Yuki sa sahig.

Napatingin naman ako sa kanya. Nakangiti siya ng mapait tas pinunasan niya ang mga luha na nasa pisngi ko using his thumb. "Apology accepted." Sabi niya. Nagulat naman ako doon.

"I am sorry that I made you cry and also cuz I yelled. It's just that I was mad at what Irene said. You must've told me everything. I can understand." Sabi niya. "And besides, I love you." Dagdag niya. Nagulat naman ako sa sinabi niya.

"Are you crazy?" Tanong ko. "No, my name's Yuki." He sarcastically said. I laughed at his sarcasm. "No, I mean...are you sure you love me?" I asked. He smiled as he caressed my cheeks. "Yes? No? Maybe?" Sunod sunod niyang sabi.

Pinalo ko naman siya sa braso niya. He laughed. "You damn bastard! You fooled me--" before I finished what I am going to say he already kissed me at my lips. The kiss last for five seconds. I think all of my blood rised up into my head. I was blushing like hell. Sht.

"Does that kiss can tell you how I love you?" Tanong niya. I slapped him. "Are you insane already?! Geez! You kissed me! That was my first kiss, you bastard!" Sigaw ko. Niyakap naman niya ako. "Even if how many times you slapped me, I feel lucky cuz I got your first kiss and also cuz I saw you blushed because of me." Sabi niya.

Pwede na bang sumabog?

"I hate you! You aren't helping me with my problem! You aren't a true friend!" sigaw ko. He chuckled. "Yes, I ain't a true friend cuz from now on I will be your boyfriend. Got it?" Sabi niya.

"And because of that, I will always be with you."
