Isabel Beatriz De Leon

Five years, but I still haven't heard from her. Nakakamiss yung mga tawa, ngiti, yung mga yakap at halik, kahit yung mga tampuhan moments namin. I remember those times when we hug in the middle of the court, kahit sa MOA Arena, San Juan Arena o Araneta pa yon. I just miss her.

Sa loob ng limang taon siya lang yung naisip ko, that feeling when you feel like you're slowly getting crazy, but you're not. That's what I am feeling for the last 5 years and still have been.

I shouldn't have stood at the corner of the airport and looked at her walk away.. I should've ran and stopped her from leaving. I should've done something, but I didn't.

Minsan naiisip ko kung ni minsan ba naisip niya ako o kaya yung mga memories with the team ~ memories with me. Nakakamiss lang yung mga memories with the team ~ with her. Speaking of the team, lately we haven't seen and talked with each other for a while. It's been a year or so, I think.

In that five years I graduated from college, which was two years ago and now I am working with my dad's company as a the head of the management team. In which we supervise the implementation of the stock markets and the stock exchange for the company, and also the shares and/or shareholders of the company.

Anyway, I am on my way to Ateneo to check out the girls, a.k.a my former teammates. Well, Saturday naman ngayon kaya I'm free until tomorrow.

I parked my car on the same spot were I usually park it way back in college. Hays, just like the old times. I miss this. Grabe.

Bumaba na 'ko sa kotse ko at naglakad papasok ng BEG habang dala-dala ko yung duffle bag ko. Pero hindi pa ako nakakalayo sa kotse ko, mga five steps away from it.. Napahinto ako.

~ • Flashback • ~

On the way na kami sa BEG, I'm with Jho and we're riding my car, well I am driving 'coz nakasakay lang siya. Hahaha. Galing kasi kaming bahay dahil nag sleepover kasi si Jho sa amin and kauuwi lang namin ngayong Monday morning. Obviously, morning training again as usual and even sa hapon meron din.

I'm driving and I can't quite focus dahil sa kaingayan at kakulitan ni Jhoana Louisse Agno Maraguinot. Nagiging childish na naman po siya. 🤓😜

Bea: Jhoana! I'm driving kaya...

Pano ba naman kasi she's poking my cheek. Pano kung sobrang ma-distract ako tas nabangga kami or something.

Jho: Beatriz! I'm driving kaya...

I frowned. Now she's doing it again, she's mimicking me especially when nang-aasar siya.

Bea: Stop copying me. Arggh!

Jho: Stop copying me. Arggh!
