I Play Better.

*Kate*

They looked shocked. Well. It isn't time yet.

"What's with the faces guys? Haha. Diba nag-red bar kayo? Hindi kayo nagyaya." I said while raising my eyebrow.

"Ah. Oh. Sinabi ba ni Aia? Sorry ah. We thought your asleep na." -Kyla

"Well who's asleep at 9pm? I party till morning Kyla. And take note, it's weekend darling." nakataas ang kilay ko parin sinabi.

"No, Babe. Your a busy person right? Sabi namin baka pagod kana." -Ino

"Oh really? Do i look like a busy person to you? I am a president of Cruz Empires but i have much time."-me

"Let's skip this topic. Ano ba ang suspense neto." -Kyla, umiinom pang juice yan ah.

" Isn't it a suspense to you? Samin lng ba ang tensyon? Eh bat nagpapawis ka? Is there something i need to know?" -me.

Napalipat-lipat ang mata ko sa dalawa kong kasamang nakatungo at umiinom ng juice.

"Hey? Guys?" -me

"There's nothing Babe/ Kate." -Kyla & Ino

They really wanna play with me. Hm. I play motherfuckingly well. Losing is not on my vocabulary. My eyebrow suddenly raise up.

"Okay. No tension guys." -me

They both smiled.

"Ma'am yung bill po." -waiter

"I'm paying." -me

"No, ako na." -Ino

"Wag iti-treat mo pa si Kate diba? I'm paying babe." -me.

Naglapag ako ng isang libo kahit 500+ lang yung bill namin.

"Thank you Ma'am" -all smiles si koya. Laki ng tip eh.

I just smiled as an response.

"What do you mean Cassy? Why the hell are you acting like that?" -Ino

"Don't you dare bad mouth me Ino! I am acting like this kasi kakaiba rin kayo umarte. You act like nothing happened. But shit Ino, everything happened. Im gonna make you two confess. Your gonna let out the shit outta you." I said then smirk. Nilapitan ko siya. "There's only one thing you should know. I play well, better and best." I stated still smirking. Tumalikod na ako at lumabas na.

Hell, i trusted them whole-heartedly. Things change fast like how girls change their mind. I didn't expect things to be like this. Alam ko una palang that Ino is a playboy, a cassanova. Pero bakit kaibigan ko pa? Napapagod na ako sa lahat kaya naisipan kong pumunta muna sa park.

So many stalls. So many kids laughing around. So many people acting like they have no problem in life. That being happy is just a simple thing to do. I slighty smiled and laugh nung nakita kong binuhusan ng ice choco nung bata yung kaaway niya. That's why I love going here. Every little things makes me laugh. Every time I see people laugh makes me laugh too. I strolled for hours in the park. Eating and playing with kids. Dumidilim na. People started to leave and go. That's why I'm afraid being happy. It happens only in a short span of time.

Magisa nanaman ako. I'm now alone in this park. Napaupo ako sa damuhan at napatingin sa langit. I was strucked by how the stars shine so brightly tonight. Like, how do they manage being so far from each other when they can compress in the sky? How do they grant our wishes when they can't grant their's? It made me think and realize. Are the stars really happy being a star? An arrow of pain hit me, right in the heart. Is being happy, too much to ask for? Happiness happens before sorrow. One day you'll just realize, Yung taong nagpunas ng luha mo ay ang tao ring magpapaiyak sayo. People started becoming colder and colder. Mas nagiging manhid sila. Each time, in everyday of your life you'll just realize that, Woah things aren't supposed to be like this. This is not what I want, this is not what my mind asks for. This is not the things I wish.

Ay ewan. Nagda-drama nanaman si Kate Cassandra. Hays. Uuwi nlng ako. Sumakay na ko sa big bike ko. While driving, naalala ko. He made me ride this bike. He made me became fearless. Nakauwi na ko.

Nag-hot bath ako at kumain ng instant noodles. I wear only over sized longsleeves and drifted into sleep.
