CAY'S POV

Athlete's night.

To: Jeric Teng

Hey. Bestfriend. Can you pick me up later? Pwede sumabay? Manong Kiko kasi has to drive Mom tapos coding ako today. Is it okay? Para naman din we can catch- up. Miss you already.. :)

From: Jeric Teng

May inutos pa sa akin si Mommy bago ako punta.. Sa apartment nalang ako nila Tata magpapalit. Sorry.

To: Jeric Teng

Sige its alright. I'll just get a cab. See you later. :)

Jeric's been weird this past few days... or let me scratch that. He's acting REALLY weird for the TWO WEEKS. First, Kapag tinetext ko sya, its either he would reply really lame na parang di worthy of me replying or even not reply at all. For my entire life, Jeric has always been the one who would make kulit to me.. trying to make a conversation everyday odd it may seem. He would text or call me eveyrday, kahit kakakita lang namin. Sabi niya its like catching up with his bestfriend. Kaya nasanay ako. Second, kapag nagkakasalubong kami around UST or nakiki- train siya sa Tigers when I'm on duty, he would just smile at me or when I start to make a conversation, he would tell me na he's in a hurry and leave. Lame. Third, kapag naman may lakad ako with his siblings, he would ditch us because he says he has important things to do... Since when does 2K matter the most to him? Minsan nakakatampo.

Dear Earth, what did you do to my bestfriend? I miss him already. Please send him back to me.

@tengjeric: You're still the best clown in the whole wide world, @copyKat. See you later! :)

@copyKat: And ikaw, still uto- uto!! Catch- up part two? Treat me naman, Mr. Baller!!! :) @tengjeric

@tengjeric: I don't allow girls to pay for me... Its a date then. Lols. Shall pick you around 6pm. @copyKat

@jericfortuna: Uyyyy. Sino may date later? @tengjeric @kimkaizen @aljonmariano @clarkbautista9 @kevferrer #IbaNaYan

@kevferrer: Uyyy, bagay @copyKat @tengjeric <3 #TengMoves #GalawangJeric

Inutusan pala ni Tita Susan.. Yun pala date lang. DATE. Sino ba tong Kat na to? Ilang days ko narin ka- exchange ng tweet to ni Je. Jeric didn't even mention her to me. Eh, paano niya sasabihin di nga kayo kinakausap eh. Di ka kinakausap. Is she the one Jeric referring to as someone she loves? Why didn't he tell me then? Baka naman the girl asked her to stay awat from me dahil nag- seselos? Or maybe, Jeric is tired of you and your world. Bakit hindi man lang niya ako ma- text, matawagan or even tweet? Hay Jeric Teng. Why do you all this things to m?

Manang Rosa: Cay, mag- prepare ka daw. Dadaanan ka nalang si Kiko bago siya sumunod sa Dadi mo. May lagnat ka parin ba?

Cay: I'm get ready na po. Okay na po ako.. Thank you Manang!

I prepared myself for the athlete's ball. I originally didn't plan to go here lalo na hindi ko naman kasi kasama si Jeric. Nakakahiya dahil di naman ako athlete. Pero Coach Pido asked me and my fellow PT interns to attend it anyway since we are part of the 'team' and included in their family. This ain't my first time to attend this ball.. Jeric would always bring me as his date for the last four years.. But this year, on our last year, no Jeric Teng as my ball date, no Jeric Teng in suit in tie to fetch me. I don't have my bestfriend beside me tonight. So I guess I'll just enjoy the night with my fellow interns. :)

Sam: O my god Cay!!! You look so stunning tonight ha. You don't have a date? *stunning*

Cay: Going stag today. *laughs* Alam mo namang I can't bring LA. Awkward! Tara, let's be each other's date! :)
