Hanggang sa makahiga ako sa aking kama ay dala-dala ko ang bigat ng aking pakiramdam. Paulit-ulit na pumapasok sa isip ko ang sinabi kanina ni Savanna.

That's why she's so happy tonight, huh. Finally, her crush admitted he likes her too.

I know I should be happy for her but instead, I felt really down. And I admit, I was hurting so bad. Why wouldn't I? She kissed me tapos sasabihin niyang may gusto pa din siya kay Dwight. I can't believe her.

Ginulo ko ang buhok sa sobrang inis. Just dammit. I know she wouldn't kiss me for nothing, I know she has feelings for me. Pero shit lang, ang gulo niya eh. Ang gulo. Ang gulo namin pareho.

Gusto ko si LK pero nagkakagusto din ako kay Sav. I really need to sort out my feelings. I can't like two persons. Isa lang dapat. Kung si Lady Kiana, edi si Lady Kiana. Kung si Sav, si Sav. Hindi pwedeng dalawa. And hell, Sav should do the same. Hindi pwedeng gusto niya si Dwight pero nagpapakita siya ng pagtingin sa akin.

From: Angel
Good morning.

Tinitigan ko lang ang message niya, I didn't reply. I'm sorry, Angel, but I need time to think. And well, I'm giving her a lesson. You don't kiss a guy and date another man.

"Dude, Reina's making me crazy!" Ani Nico nang magkita kami sa classroom. Tinaasan ko siya ng kilay, "Really? Why?"

"Savanna! She's always talking about Savanna! Savanna's a good girl. Savanna doesn't deserve all the hate. I need to slap Dwight for leaving Savanna that night. I need to fucking give that Lovely a lesson for degrading Savanna. Savanna! Savanna!" Nico whined, "She won't shut up about your girl! It's driving me insane!"

"It's funny how girls drive guys insane, huh?"

"Bakit? Binabaliw ka din ba ni Sav?" Will asked grinning. I simply nodded.

"Nakakaloka. When will this Sav issue stop? Ni ayaw magpahalik ni Reina!" Problemadong-problemado na sabi ni Nico. Nagkibit na lamang ako ng balikat at umupo sa isang arm chair.

As of now, viral pa din talaga ang issue na ikinalat ni Lovely. I couldn't convince her to delete her post and apologize so, I was left no choice but to give up. There are people who'd stay close-minded kahit anong gawin mong pagpapaintindi.

And I really have to protect Sav from them...but how? Hindi pwedeng palagi akong nasa tabi niya dahil may klase din ako.

"Cryd, can we talk?"

We were walking to our next class when Lady Kiana appeared in front of us. She was wearing her uniform, her hair's pulled in a lousy pigtail.

Sumipol si Nico at tinapik ang aking balikat, "I won't tell Sav. Dalian mo lang." Tapos ay hinila na niya paalis si Will.

Bumuntong-hininga ako at tinignan si Lady Kiana, "Hey. What do you want to talk about?"

"I want to say I was sorry for being rude to Sav last Sunday." She said with an exasperated sigh, "I just can't keep it all inside. Sobrang inis kasi ako sa ginawa niyang pagtatago! I just...blew up!"

Kinunotan ko siya ng noo, "Bakit sa akin ka nagsosorry?"

"Because I know you're mad at me for what I did." She pouted, "And you're like her other half. May kasalanan ako sa kanya, kaya parang may kasalanan na din ako sa'yo. So, sorry."

Tumango-tango ako. I understand that she's upset about Sav but what she did last Sunday is really out of the line. She was rude and she acted so spoiled. But at least, she realized her mistakes.

"Just...don't do it again. You have to understand Savanna. She has gone through the worst."

Pinaglaruan niya ang dulo ng kanyang buhok, "I know but I just can't believe her. We could've helped her go through everything, hindi iyong ganito. Nag-sarili siya."
