Heartbreak Girl

"Kath. Hi, uhm." DJ quickly stood up and waved awkwardly.

"DJ? Why are you here? And anong ginagawa mo?! Anong nangyari sa mga sapatos ko?!" I asked, a little too loud.

"Kath, naman. Ayaw mo ako dito?" He adorably asked and pouted.

"Ugh. Hindi naman sa ganun, DJ. Nagulat lang ako." I honestly answered and helped him pick my shoes up and put them in place.

"I wanted to surprise you. Pero I bumped into your shoe shelf thingy. Kainis." He said, more like to himself because he was speaking too lowly.

"Ano ba kasing sadya mo?" I asked, trying not to sound too harsh.

"Well, wala akong Saturday classes. And I woke up earlier than I thought. Kaya tumambay ako dito. Dito na rin ako nagbreakfast, tapos nagchismisan kami ni Dad. So I basically stayed here since kanina pa." He answered.

Being best friends with DJ was a package deal. He was the best, that's already given. But he was a bit weird and like I said, he's a top-notch a-hole. The package deal includes him being annoying ninety percent of the time and basically owning my room, my home and my parents.

But this was us.

He calls my parents the way I call them and likewise, I do as well with his parents. My parents welcomed him with open arms, literally, because they both agree with the idea that DJ was a better cuddle buddy than I am. Malambing kasi si DJ. Linalambing niya lahat ng tao.

And maybe, that's one of the reasons why I like him.

"You should've texted me." I firmly answered and made my way to my bed. I sighed as I saw my MacBook opened and some apps opened.

I heard DJ's footsteps coming near, nasa likod ko na siya ngayon.

Suddenly, I felt his arms snake on my waist as he pulled me close and nuzzled his head in the crook of my neck.

As bad and as cliché this sounds, I felt the sparks fly.

DJ's has never been so touchy. I mean, he is malambing, yes. Pero ngayon, parang iba. Sanay na ako sa hugs niya. Pero parang iba ngayon.

I stood frozen on spot. Is this actually happening?

"Oh, ang tahimik mo." He said, looking at me. Our faces are so close, his arms still wrapped on my waist.

"I'm just tired." I answered and took a hold of his arms and removed it from my waist.

I don't want further contact between us. Baka hindi ko kayanin, mapaamin ako nang wala sa wisyo.

I took my laptop and some other things of my bed and placed it on my study table.

I lay in bed, DJ is still in the same spot. He looked at me questionably. I just sighed and close my eyes. I'm really tired.

"Nagpuyat ka na naman kagabi no?" He asked out of nowhere. I just nodded. I felt a weight beside me. Humiga si DJ sa tabi ko.

"Kaaaath. Diba lalabas tayo ngayon?" I heard him coo.

"Oo. Pero mamaya. 3 ang usapan, anong oras pa lang?" I answered.

"May regla ka na naman ba? Bakit ang sungit mo?" Sabi niya. I opened my eyes and I was surprised to see how close he was. He was pouting like a child who lost his toy car.

"Pagod lang ako. Nakakastress kasi itong week na ito." I honestly answered.

"Hmm, don't stress yourself too much, Kath. Live a little." He advised.
