Sana madali lang tanggapin ang lahat. Sana hindi yung ako lagi ang masasaktan. Sana nagbebenefit din ako pero hindi eh. Sa lecheng engagement na to. Mga magulang namin ang nagbebenefit.

Its just like a game. We're the beginners. In chess, we're the pawns. In ball games, we're always the ball. We are the one getting played but we don't get the chance to play. Its unfair like that.

Its unfair mostly for me because I'm in the edge of a cliff where no one is able to catch me. I fell, he didn't. Well actually he did, not for me, but for my bestfriend. I gave out an exasperated sigh.

"Lalim ah..." Napalingon naman ako kay Leigh.

"Uyy. Kaw pala."

"Yun parin?"

"Unfortunately..."

"You'll get over it soon."

"Says the Queen of this University."

"Oh come on. Don't bring that up. Focus lang. Magstastart na ang klase oh." Kinindatan niya ako bago pumunta sa seat niya which is sa katabi lang ng nasa likod ko.

"TIANA!"

"Ay shet! Ano ba?! Bat nanggugulat kayo?!"

"Ay sorry naman. Bat ang highblood mo ngayon?" At dun ko napansin si Tin. Iba na itsura niya. More like pinaghalong ako at si Tri pero mas... malala?

"Chura mo?!" Kumurap kurap naman siya. Beautiful eyes na hindi naman bagay sa kanya.

"Ganda ko right?" No. Seriously no. Not because I have some grudge on her. But seriously she isn't pretty. Mukha siyang...

"Prosti..."

"Excuse me what?" Holy shit nasabi ko ba ng malakas?

"She said pretty. Nakakapanibago ka Trinity." Thank you Caeze Leigh! Remind me to thank her later for saving me here.

"I think that's not what I heard."

"Well that's what I heard."

"Tri ano narinig mo?"

"Uhh..." Shit. Shit talaga. Bakit ba mukhang bitchessa ngayon si Tin?

"I heard pretty tho." Ngayon ko lang naman napansin si Sky na nasa tabi pala ni Caeze Leigh.

"Yeah, that's what I said. Why? Ano ba pagkakaintindi mo?" Maang-maangan kong tanong sa kanya.

"I heard you! Hindi ako bingi!"

"Why the hell are you shouting at me?" Pumunta naman sa tabi ko si Leigh at Sky at Brylle? Ehh? Bakit nandito to?

"Cause you called me a prosti! How dare you?!" Oh ghad! Sapphire come on! Hindi ka naman duwag. War freak ka nga eh! Hooh!

"Well if that's what you heard then sorry. Baka naapektuhan ng napakalaki mong hikaw ang pandinig mo."

"What?! Ano bang problema mo?! Kanina ka pa ah!"  Seriously she gotta tone her voice down. Nakakaattract kami ng audience.

"'Cuse me. Ikaw ang nauna."

"Girls tama na yan. Upo na tayo." Pag papagitna naman ni Tri.

"No! Ngayon lang ako nag-ayos ng ganito kaganda tas tatawagin niya akong prosti?! You are my friend Sapphire! How could you?!" How could I?

"How could I? Oh come on. Fine. I admit it. I called you a "prosti". Sa tingin ko ay hindi mo naman bibitawan to hanggat di ko inaaamin right? So fine. I did. What now?"
