# Caleb's

I sighed haaaard! Why? Why on earth is this happening? My mom just texted me to go home right after ng event sa school. Wag na raw ako magpagabi masyado and iuwi ko na raw si Tiffany. Kung alam lang nya... how disappointed I am to her.

"Caleb... ahm... about us..."

"Sunny, walang tayo. Matagal na. Remember?"

"Pero Caleb, kung hindi naman dahil kay Tiffany hindi tayo maghihiwalay diba?"

"But it's on you whether you'll believe her or not. Nasa'yo na rin yun kung magtitiwala ka saakin. You could've asked me but you chose to believe her kaya tayo naghiwalay. It's not just Fany's fault."

I saw anger in her eyes. Pero pare-pareho naman kaming may kasalanan. Tiffany lied, Sunny believed her... but all in all, Tiffany won't do that kung wala syang nakitang mali saakin. Jeez! Sya parin yung pinagtatanggol ko? Kanino? Kay Sunny at pati sa sarili ko? Psh~ baliw na talaga ako.

"I still Love you Caleb. Please. Hindi mo naman ako basta basta makakalimutan diba? I need you now Caleb. Please." Sunny pleaded as if this is between life and death. Pero bakit? Ganoon nya ba ako kamahal?

"Ganoon ba ako kagwapo? Patay na patay ka naman ata saakin Sunny." Pabiro kong sabi. And suddenly, narealize kong masyadong seryoso ang lahat. And that we should lighten up a little.

Sunny chuckled pero medyo nakasimangot pa. "Gago!! Mahal kita pero hindi ka naman masyadong gwapo... errr... oo gwapo ka nga. Pero hindi naman sa patay na patay ako. Kasi..."

"Kasi? Sige. Ganito. Sabihin mo saakin kung bakit dapat bigyan kita ng chamce?"

"Wow ha! Parang ikaw pa yung babae para magbigay ng chance."

"You asked for it diba? Kung ayaw mo sabihin edi uuwi na'ko. My mom wants me home ASAP." Changing my pace, she grabbed my arm.

"Kasi si Manuel..."

"Manuel? Yung paedo??" She nodded. "What's with him? Pinagsamantalahan ka ba nya??"

"No. No. No. Kasi... break na kami. I mean, I broke up with him pero ginugulo nya parin ako. I said I still love you pero ayaw nya akong tantanan kasi sabi nya kayo naman na raw ni Tiffany at wala na akong magagawa so I'm stuck with him. But Caleb..."

"Eh gago naman pala talaga yun eh. Epal yung peado na yun. Gusto mo isumbong natin sa teachers??"

"Wag! He said kung hindi raw ako makikipagbalikan sakanya, sya mismo ang magsasabi sa director and sa parents ko. Caleb nakakahiya yun!! Kaya wala akong ibang alam na paraan kundi magbeg sa'yo." Sunny said looking down. Napa-sigh nalang ako. Baliw na yung paedo na yun.

"I'll help you. Pero Sunny, I love Tiffany. Kahit na may kasalanan sya saakin, saatin, sya parin yung gusto ko. Sobrang dami nang nangyari eh. I hope you understand."

Hindi ko alam kung anong tumatakbo sa isip ni Sunny ngayon. Nakatingin lang sya saakin at wala talaga akong idea kung galit, masaya o nalulungkot sya. Maya-maya pa, nagnod sya at binitiwan na yung braso ko.

"I understand. But... you'll help me right?"

"Yes. But right now, I really need to go home."

"Okay. Babalik nalang ako sa hall. I'm sure nandun pa yung friends ko. Keep safe Caleb."

"You too. See you." I waved good bye to her. At tinext ko na rin si mom na pauwi na'ko.
