CLAUDE POV
"Oh, gano'n ba? So we're rivals?" Saad ni Kleid ng sabihin kong may gusto ako sa bestfriend ko. He got shock when he find out. But I'm amazed that I can't feel any rivalry between us even though he said that we're indeed rivals. It looks like.. we gotta do our best to win Eli's heart without being a rival.
"Yeah looks like it. Pero you have an advantage, alam ni Eli ang nararamdaman mo. But.. well.. she still didn't know. I have no confidence to confess to her." Kleid tap my shoulder. "Dude, I don't want to be unfair. Go confess to her right now." Tinignan ko siya. Kleid is a good guy.. that's what I observed & feel.

ELI POV
"You're still angry with him?" Nabaling ang atensyon ko kay ate Rish. "Anong ibig mong sabihin ate Rish?" Sagot ko, acting innocently. "You know what I'm talking about Eli." I sigh in defeat. Ate Rish surely knows me.. "I'm not angry.. well you can put it that way.. 'di ko nararamdaman yung importansya ko sa kanya. Yung nakasanayan ko dati na ginagawa niya, itinigil na niya without giving me reasons. 'Di ko alam kung ano ang problema, kasi iniwan niya ako bigla sa ere. Ate, mali ba kung sasabihin kong gusto ko nasa akin lang yung atensyon ni Claude?" Actually itong nararamdaman ko kay Claude, matagal na ito. Pero I tried.. I badly tried to forget what I really felt for him for our friendship. Ayokong mawala 'yon. Pero as time goes by, pati yung "friendship" na 'yon nawawala na. I can feel that Claude don't want to stay longer in our friendship & it hurts me every time I think of it.
"As expected.." napatingin ako kay ate Rish. "Anong as expected ate Rish?"
"You grow a feelings for him don't you? Nararamdaman ko sa bawat salita mo na hindi lang 'yan para sa kaibigan." She caught me. Napaiwas ako ng tingin dahilan para mapangisi si ate Rish. "I knew it." Said ate Rish. "I never intend to grow feelings for him. I only admire him at first, pero 'di ko napigilan. I know it's my fault, alam kong mali ang--" ate Rish cut me off. "Hindi mali ang magmahal Eli, tandaan mo 'yan. The only advice that I can give you is .. don't be afraid to show what you feel for that person. Kahit na bestfriend mo siya, don't be afraid to take the risks. Negative o positive man ang kalalabasan, nakadepende pa rin 'yan sa inyong dalawa on how you'll face it.. together." I don't know? Natatakot talaga akong i-take ang risks. Especially kung ang pinag-uusapan ay si Claude at ako. I'm too afraid..

*flashback*
"Kleid! Please help me!" Pagsusumamo ko sa lalaking nasa harapan ko ngayon.
"Kin you know I can't, wala akong feelings sa kanya. And you know who I like." He then blush. Ang cute niya talaga 😍 Pero I'm not giving up! I need him for my plan!!
"I know you're courting me." I said, you heard it right! "I know I'm the one you like, pero you admire Eli too right? Pwedeng gamitin mo muna 'yon para sa plano ko? I want her to be happy. Kaso nga lang 'di mangayayari 'yon kung walang gagalaw. Kleid you know that Eli & Claude have a feelings for each other right, sinabi ko na 'to sa'yo. Kaso takot silang dalawa na aminin ito sa isa't-isa. Kaya nga I need you Kleid for this, please." I crossed my fingers hoping he'll agree.
"I'll make it clear, I'm not doing it for her. I'm doing it, because you told me to." Did he just agreed to me? "KYAH! THANK YOU KLEID! YOU'RE REALLY THE BEST!" I hug him so tight & kiss his cheeks after. Reward niya 'yon. He blushed again.
*end of flashback*

SO! You already know na? Kleid really don't have a thing for Eli, Kleid is just an extra for Eli & Claude lovestory!! Kasama ko dito si ate Rish, she's helping me to make this plan happen.
As for Eli & Claude, nakakaechos silang dalawa 😒 Parehas na torpe. Buti na lang nasabi sa'kin ni ate Rish na Eli have a feelings for Claude. When I heard it, I automatically blurt out to ate Rish that Claude feels the same. At 'yon ang simula ng pagpaplano namin sa dalawa, with the help of Kleid.
