All the things we have were destroyed because of his non-sense jealousy. How I hate it! Ely is my best friend for no one's sake! We've been best friends for no-one-knows-how-many years! Kyle is so immature. How could he be jealous with a man whom I treat as my brother?
I and Kyle never talk for almost a month. How I missed him so much.
Pero kung naaalala ko kung paanong hindi niya ako pinansin at tinalikuran na lang basta basta nung sabihin kong di ko magagawa ang sinasabi niya, naasar ako... naiinis... at higit sa lahat, nasasaktan.
"Choose Liana, Ely or me?" he coldly said.
"What the...? Why do I have to choose Kyle? Ely is my best friend!" nangingilid na ang luha ko.
"Ely... or me? Just choose." And he lit up his cigar. Ganyan palagi ang ginagawa niya pag hindi na alam ang gagawin at pag ninenerbyos na siya.
"Why are you doing this to me? What happened with you, Kyle? Why all of a sudden?"
I almost give up ng hindi na siya sumasagot at bigla na lang tumayo upang aalis na. A-ang sakit... alam kong nagseselos siya sa kaibigan ko pero hindi ko inaasahan na aabot ang lahat sa ganito.
"K-Kyle..." pabulong kong sabi. Sobrang nanlalambot na ang tuhod ko sa aking panghihina. Nag-aaway kami ngunit hindi humahantong sa ganitong sitwasyon.
For once, huminga ako ng malalim at buong lakas siyang hinabol at pinigilan. Mahal ko si Kyle at hindi ako susuko ng ganito lang. Gusto kong malaman ang dahilan ng lahat ng ito, ang dahilan kung bakit siya nagkakaganito.
"Kyle, please tell me what is wrong. What have I done wrong?" my tears fell again. "How could you not trust me and my love for you?" I said while sobbing.
"Liana, stop crying." Iniwas niya ang paningin niya sa akin.
"Kyle, just please tell me... w-why are y-you doing this to me? Why Ely? You know, he is my best friend. I can't choose between you and him. You are both important to me."
"Liana"
"What did I do Kyle, honey? Tell me ple---"
"What did you do? Liana! How can you call him best friend when you two kissed? How?! After I saw you kissing with Ely, you're asking me why?" he yelled. "How could you, Liana?!"
"W-what?!!"
I remembered last night when we have a party at my friend's house. Ely and I were invited; Kyle doesn't coz he's in a business meeting.
That night, Ely confessed to me. He told everything he felt for me. He loves me a lot that he let me be with the one I truly love. He's drunk; me either. But I still know what I'm doing. I cried after his confession because I'm guilty and felt sorry for him.
He hugged me. I thought... that's what all he'll going to do. But when I stared at him, I suddenly felt his warm lips on mine. I felt his truly madly deeply love for me. But I pushed him away when I realize we're not supposedly doing this. I walked away and went home alone.
"And you didn't bother to ask me after that? You didn't bother to hear my side? What kind of reaction was that, Kyle?" I stopped crying and stared him blankly straight to his eyes. He faced me this time.
