Chapter 32: Wasn't Enough

Chapter 32: Wasn't Enough

After Sapphire walked out we were surrounded by silence. A very uncomfortable silence.

Justine's muttering curses. Brylle seems to be in shock. Rance, Jeydn, Francis and Sky are speechless. They all look dumbfounded. Well, I already expected that to happen.

"Fuck!" All eyes darted on Brylle. "Ugh! Fuck you Just!" Alam kong gusto niyang suntukin si Just, pinipigilan lang niya.

"Brylle..." Tumingin siya sakin bago sa pintuang nasa likod ko na linabasan ni Saph. Tumabi na ako dahil alam ko naman na gusto niyang sundan si Saph. Hindi nga ako nagkamali, kumaripas siya ng takbo sa kung saan dumaan si Saph. Sigh. I want to kill Just.

"Dude, explain." Inis at may diin na utos ni Jeydn.

"Do I have to?" Bagot na sagot ni Justine.

"You don't. But they deserve to know. After all. They're your friends." Inis na lumingon naman siya sakin.

"Why do you care?! Ano bang alam mo?!" Pinaningkitan ko siya ng mata. How dare you shout at me?!

"I care cause Saph is my friend. What do I know? Hmm. I know how big of a motherfucking asshole you are." Usal ko sa matigas na ingles. You are not going to win this Jeydn. Ikaw ang may mali. Stoop low.

"You know nothing."

"I know enough, Jus."

"Hey, hey, hey! Justine don't talk to my girl like that." Lumipat ang tingin ni Justine kay Sky.

"If you don't want to explain bahala ka. Just don't call us when you need us. We won't be there for the asshole you've become." Pagkatapos banggitin yun ay umalis narin si Jeydn.

"Get out of here." I can't even distinguish my own voice. He didn't even move a single hair. "I said get out." Hindi parin siya gumalaw.

"Dude you heard her. Get out of her place." Tinutulak na ni Francis si Justine pero ayaw niyang gumalaw.

Now I can't contain my anger. You'll regret this. "I SAID GET THE FUCK OUT OF HERE!" I shouted at the top of my lungs. He just flinched. "When do people ever learn..." I mumbled before jumping and striking him with my boots. He fell unconscious. "Get him out of here."

They seemed to be shock of what I did. I have my limits. Its better not to test them. Dumiretso ako sa kwarto ko sa taas. I better call Saphy.

She answered on the fourth ring. "Hey Saph, where are you?"

"At my parent's house. I'm fine Leigh. You don't have to worry."

"But I'm worried as hell here. I just kicked Justine's head that made him unconscious." I don't know kung anong meron sa sinabi ko pero narinig ko siyang tumawa. Nababaliw na ba to?

"I did want to do that. Hindi ko lang kaya. Thanks for doing it for me Leigh." Oh so that's why. Gaga talaga to.

"Hmm. You're welcome. Do you need a friend right now? I can come over."

"You've done enough Leigh. I'm going to New York. I don't wa--"

"What?! Why? Seriously?"

"Yeah. My parents doesn't know about it. I don't want anyone to know I'll be there. So let's keep this between us."

"Are you sure about this?" Narinig ko siyang humikbi. Na nasundan na ng hagulgol. "Hey Saph..."

"I'm fine. Hahaha. I want to start a new. My parents are going to despise me for what I did. I better go before they know what happened."
