Just as I was about to enter the lift, someone grabbed me aside para makapasok ang ibang tao.

I looked back to see Race staring at me intently.

Naguguluhan aking tumingin sa kanya.
"Why are you still here?"

He heaved a sigh. "Do you think I'll leave knowing you're pissed at me with no reason that I know of?"

Naging malikot ang aking mga mata. I'm being unfair to him. I should not act this way. From the very beginning, he already imposed where I should stand in this set up.

"I'm just.. I'm just not feeling well. I'm sorry if it bothered you. Sige na, umuwi ka na." Okay, best actress goes to me!

Agad siyang umiling. "No. I'm not going anywhere. I'll stay." Matigas nitong sambit.

I really am confused right now. He's acting.. weird. Para bang, bumabalik suya sa dating playful na Race. Matampuhing Race. Isip batang Race.

How I missed that side of him.

Lumamlam ang aking mga mata sa pagbabalik tanaw na yun.

Seasonal ba ang pagche-change mood nito? Malapit na Christmas. Kaya ba biglang bait na naman siya?

"You really don't have to stay. I'm alright." Tanggi ko rito.

Napasimangot naman siya.
"You're really fond of pushing me away now huh? Dati rati halos ayaw mong magkahiwalay tayo tuwing hinahatid kita. What changed?"

I rolled my eyes at him. Tado talaga. Eh siya kaya unang nagbago!

"Reality check Mr. Dela Cena ha. Ikaw kaya tong biglang naging monster! Ilang beses mo kong nasaktan, if ever di ka aware!" Pinandilatan ko pa siya ng mga mata. I don't wanna sound accusing but there it goes, agad siyang nag-guilty face.

"Don't apologize for it, Race. Ginusto ko to. Plus, pain made me stronger. It made me numb. Ayaw mo ba nun? Pag natapos ang hundred days, di na ako masasaktan pa dahil kumota ka na?" I was trying to throw a joke pero sineryoso ng mokong. His jaw clenched and for a while, natahimik siya. I took that as a cue para pumasok sa kabilang elevator.

Dahil di ko na talaga kayang pigilan pa.
I silently wept as the lift goes up. Hindi na siya sumunod pa.
Tama nga talaga yung kasabihang in every laughter, there's a tear after.

Yung nag umpisa kami sa isang masayang pagkakaibigan tapos biglang ganito ang kahihitnan.

I know it's my fault. Pinilit ko ang isang bagay na alam kong di talaga pwede. Pero di naman masamang umasa. Malay natin, mainlove pa siya sa akin.

Push lang beh. Para hopia ang supposed to be happy ending mo.

I wore a tight black tattered jeans at red rose crop top with choker.Tinernuhan ko ito ng ankle boots. I wore light make up and a messy hair bun.

Brit wore a royal blue fitted dress.

"Umiyak ka ba? Your eyes are puffy when you went home." Usisa nito habang nagda-drive papuntang club.

Wala talagang ligtas sa matang lawin ni Britannica.

"Wala. Nag usap lang kami ni Race. Dramatista lang ang peg ko ngayon. Parang ikaw lang." I kidded. Pero di ata bumenta. Di siya natawa.
