Cannot Be

Chapter 2

Chapter 2: That wasn't me!

"Can't you just hear me out Cara?" Nagpintig ang tenga ko sa narinig.

Seriously? What right does he have to ask for that? After all we've been through this is how he repay me?

Nagmamadali akong ipinasok ang bag ko sa loob ng kotse. I don't have time for his bullshit. I don't even wanna see him anymore or hear his voice. Nakakasuka.

"Cara you're being irrational. Just hear me out!" Sabi niya.

Irrational? What the flying fuck is he talking about!

"Oh come on Rex! How was I being irrational? You know that avoiding you is the right thing to do because between you and I? You're the one who's irrational!"

He's the one talk!

After cheating on me? With his cousin? Fuck!

My pride wouldn't hurt that much kung nambabae lang s'ya. He's done it a couple of times already! But cheating on me with his fucking cousin is just so cheap!

"Cara... baby.. come on.. let's talk this out." BABY? Oh the face!

Minasahe ko ng bahagya ang sentido ko. I can't believe this guy.

"Believe me.. you wouldn't be calling me that if I start spilling beans!" Sabi ko saka isinara ang pinto ng kotse ko.

Pagkaupo ay agad akong huminga ng malalim as tears start to flow down my eyes.

It's been 3 months at hanggang ngayon hindi ko pa rin tanggap ang ginawa niya. Cheating is one thing but cheating with his own blood? Come on! Am I that low?

Alalang-alala ko pa how he told me that he had a fever at hindi niya ako masusundo and me, being the good girlfriend that I was— cut classes just to tend him. Kaso napasama pa ata ang pagiging mabuting girlfriend ko.

When I reached his condo, parking palang kabado na ako for some sort of reason. Hindi ako magkandaugaga kase baka kung ano na ang nangyari dun. He doesn't even have anyone with him. Nagstairs pa ako kase ang bagal nung elevator. Sobrang pagod ako kaya pagpasok ko sa condo niya hindi ko agad nakita yung mga damit sa floor. Nakita ko nalang yun nung tapos na akong uminom.

Naawa pa ako kase baka di niya na kayang ilagay sa marumihan yung mga damit niya, sobrang hinang-hina siguro. Until I saw a bra. At first di pa nagsink in, nakaupo lang ako dun sa lapag hawak-hawak yung bra habang tumutulo yung luha ko, like some pathetic little bitch.

Pinaasok ko na yung kwarto at itatanong ko na sa kaniya kung kanino. The scene in my head was way different with what I saw. Apparently, what I'm thinking is still better.

He was on his bed, a girl on top of him, riding him like a cowgirl. I was shocked of course, who wouldn't be right? My knees started to wobble. Tapos the girl looked behind. I blinked a few times kase baka mali yung nakita ko. Baka dahil lang sa luha pero my eyes didn't lie! It really was Franz, his cousin. I know because he introduced me to her first before he even introduced me to his parents.
