Destiny's Game (JhoBea & MaRah)

Chapter 16

Marge's

I do admit I am asleep the whole trip going home.

Stupid. That is what you can call me actually.

You can call me masukista, nasasaktan na nga ako to see Jirah with him but still I asked him to join us going back to manila.

Stupid right?

Can't act normal.

Can't be the old me.

Can't talk to her same as before.

Gap.

Dito na ba talaga mag sisimula yung pag- kasira ng friendship namin?

19 years din yun pero dahil lang sa kanya?

Or should I say

Dahil lang nag bago ako, nawalan ng oras may dumating na iba para saluhin sya sa ganitong panahon?

Ganun na lang ba talaga?

Hay.

I am awake, wide awake bago pa man kami makauwi ng bahay.

Alam ko that I am leaning on her shoulders kasi kabisado ko na amoy nito syempre.

Idagdag mo pang hawak nya yung ulo ko making sure na hindi ako lalaglag.

Gusto kong alisin na yung kamay nya.

Lumayo sa kanya.

Pero ayoko na lang tumayo.

Ayokong makita silang nag uusap o kahit ano kaya hinintay ko na lang na gisingin nila ako.

I was not wrong.

I can actually hear them talking.

Babe.

Babe can we just not talk just for this moment.

Why?

At the back of my mind parang natuwa ako.

Okay sorry naman diba?

Can you blame me?

Is it because of her?

Me?

I mean why me?

And what he knows?

Yes. Alam mo naman diba? Ito lang.

Okay. I do respect that, nandito lang ako okay?

May iba pa syang sinabi pero mas mahina na sa natural na usapan nila knowing na they are with her parents.

Yes, I will babe. Thank you.

Sure. Smile na po ikaw please.

And I felt her deep sigh.

And I think that's my cue to wake up.

Naiinis ako.

At sa sobrang inis ko naiiyak ako.

Kaya kailangan kong tumalikod sa kanila.

Bakit?

Ewan ko din.

Di ko na to mapaliwanag.

Pero isa lang sigurado.

Sobrang masakit na po.

So I acted like I woke up and sit with my knees on my forehead.

I want to cry without them knowing.
