One Sided Love

OSL-XIII

Jho's POV

"Jho Maraguinot to serve" -the announcer said, and that signals oyr journey for this new season.

The referee whistled and serve the ball up.

We're going against NU. And just like the previous seasons our mindset is still the same. One game at a time.

Although, we need to defend the crown and this will be our captain's last year. We need to give her a good fight til the end. She deserves it.

Ju sets the ball to Ate Aly and she kills it as usual.

The game was close but we're able to close this out with the first W and we did it in just 3 straight sets. NU is a strong team and we're really thankful to Him that He gave this first win to us. Sana magtuloy-tuloy 'to.

This means celebration!!!

After the game, diretso kami sa kainan.

Sa tabi ko si Bea. Ang clingy talaga ng batang 'to. Kanina pa nagvavibrate nang nagvavibrate yung phone ko. I checked it earlier and my notifs were about me and Bea. Everyone noticed Bea's clinginess.

Infairness, kay Bea consistent yung pagiging clingy niya. She's always like that naman. Oh, nagkaayos kami that same day, nung birthday ko. And, I was very thankful to Jia. Alam kong kahit lagi ko siyang pinagseselosan siya yung laging tumutulong kay Bea sa lahat ng efforts niya.

*flashback*

When my teammates greeted me, everyone was in shock. Ofcourse, including Bea.

She ran away. And before she did that nakatitig lang siya sa amin ni Marci. Pero pagkatakbo niya lang saka ko narealize why did she act like that.

I dont want to assume pero halatabg-halata sa mukha niya yung selos.

"Uuuhhh... oooohhh... akala ko pa naman makakain na ako." -sabi ni ate Ella, yes, ate Ella is here, ininvite siguro, basta kainan mabilis yan eh. Sobrang bongga naman nung BEG. Sobrang pinaghandaan. Maybe, Bea did this.

"Kung ako sayo hahabulin ko na yun." -Ate Aly

"Ah Jho. Una na ako ah." -ay oo nga pala, Marci was here. Nawawala na ko sa tamang pag-iisip. Gosh!!!

"You sure?" -I asked him.

"Yeah, may gagawin pa ata kayo dito eh." -he waved his goodbye

Ngayon, nagsmile na lang ako baka kasi magkaroon na naman ng awkward moment eh.

Tumakbo ako kung saan patugo si Bea. But then, I saw her in another arms.

Napatingin naman si Jia sa gawi ko.

"I guess, you two need to talk."-sabi niya, pertaining to me and Bea. Si Bea naman naka-hug pa rin pero may binulong sa kanya si jia at iniwan niya na kami dun.

"Bei..." - tawag ko sa kanya.

Nakatalikod pa rin siya sa akin at tinitignan ko lang yung galaw niya. Pinahid niya muna yung luha niya.

"Yung nakita mo kanina. Wala yun." -pagpapaliwanag ko sa kanya. Hindi ko alam kung paano aayusin 'to, but sasabihin ko lang yung totoo

Hindi siya nagsasalita, kaya pinagpatuloy ko na lang yung pagpapaliwanag sa kanya.

"Niyaya niya lang ako kumain and I agreed kasi akala ko nalimutan mo na birthday ko and wala naman akong ginagawa and you've been busy. Pero, I guess I was that stupid to not notice yung pagod mo na para sa akin." -sabi ko, punong-puno ng sincerity yung bawat salitang binibitawan ko.
