Dillenna Heera's Point of View:
Two months. It's only two months away and I will be leaving the country. Nakakaexcite! The only thing that's bothering me now is the place where I'm going to head to. It was really supposed to be Japan or England or—whatever... everywhere but not those places. To ease the boredom of my eight more weeks of stay, I just enjoyed myself serving water to the basketball players. It's fun. Really fun. Tss.
"Look at Theon! Pinapalibutan na naman siya ng mga babae—Oh! Sorry Heer—"
"Hey, it's okay. He's no longer my husband, remember?"I chastised, rolling my eyeballs at her.
For a week of being with these weirdos, I've learned their names and some nonsensical little stuffs about them. Anyhow, that one, that was Charlene. Being tactless is her nature. Tss.
"Heera, are you really sure you don't feel anything at all about him?" Glysdy asked with questioning eyes scrutinizing me. With that, she took a glare from me.
"For a thousandth time dear, I'm really sure. He is really nothing. He's just an ex, no more, no less."
"Hanggang ngayon kasi hindi parin kapani-paniwalang wala na kayo. You were the couple everyone looked up to as the perfect pair ever—"
"Really Hannah? Because the last time I checked, there is no such thing as perfect in this world full of mistakes. Girls, can you just move on like I did? Let's not talk about trashes and anything that stinks, alright?"mataray na saad ko sa kanila.
"Right."they all said in unison.
Perfect then. That's the great thing of being with the weirdos, they just agreed with me that quick. No hassles.
"Omg! I can't contain it. Sorry Heera but he's staring at you now!"
"Ivy! Quit it already. Just look away!"pangaral naman agad ni Hannah.
Nakakairita din talaga sila eh. Kapag ang Theo—No bad words allowed! Yeah, like I ever forget. When it comes to that creature, these weirdos can't keep their mouth shut and it's tempting me to kill them right away.
"Anyway girls, I really have to go. Sumunod nalang kayo sa gym if you want to see the boys balling."I said while I rolled my eyes.
" Bye Heera."
Mabibilis ang hakbang ko patungong gym matapos makapagbihis. From where I was, I can spot Liam already on one of the benches. Few pews from him seated Amity whose eyes are fixed at me or is it someone from behind me—
Because I'm stupid, I looked around and ended meeting a pair of eyes gazing at me. Tinaasan ko siya ng kilay at saka nagpatuloy sa paglalakad. Umayos ka Dillenna. It's three weeks already. Nakaya mo no'ng una, ngayon pa kaya? Ano naman kung nandiyan na naman siya? Hindi na naman siya mahalaga sa'yo. He's nothing but a trash.
"Dillenna."
What the fuck! He can't talk to me! He can't just call my name as easy as that! Ugh! Napapikit ako sa sobrang inis. Why are my feet not moving!???? What the hell is wrong with me?
Dillenna, don't be stupid! Move. Go. Go. Go—
"Heera! Kanina ka pa namin hinintay."Matthew interrupted.
Oh! Just in time, you're incredible Matt. Shoving away the frazzled feeling lately, I walked fast towards him. Inakbayan niya agad ako.
What the fuck was that Dillenna? Ang akala ko ba matapang ka? Ano 'yon? But it was really different. Yes, we've seen each other everyday but he never called me nor tried to talk to me. That was just really unexpected.
"Are you okay, doll-face?"bulong ni Matthew nang makalayo na kami sa entrance ng gym.
"I'm fine. Of course."
"Are you sure—"
"Matt! Like what the hell! It's just him! He's nothing to me!"naiinis na bulyaw ko at saka siya iniwan.
Dumiretso ako kay Coach. Ang sunod na ginawa ko, it's purely out of my plans. Pero huli na ng marealize ko ang ginawa ko. Nakalayo na ako sa gymnasium. Oo, nagpaalam akong mag-absent. For what reason, shit! I'm such a stupid weak woman! Ano nalang ang iisipin niya? Na hanggang ngayon, naapektuhan parin ako sa kanya.
"Fuck!!! Ang tanga mo Dillenna!"I cussed.
Patakbo akong pumunta sa parking space. Nang makapasok na ako ng kotse ay hindi ko na pinigilan ang sarili kong humagulhol. Kung gaano ka-bigat yong nararamdaman ko nang hindi niya ako kausapin matapos ang lahat, doble ang bigat at sakit ng dibdib na nararamdaman ko ngayong narinig ko ulit ang boses niyang tinatawag ang pangalan ko.
Bakit ganon? For the past few days, ang tapang-tapang ko. Ilang ulit ko siyang nakasalubong nang hindi nate-threaten sa kanya. Ilang ulit kong nakaya ang panoorin siyang may kasamang iba. Tinawag lang niya ang pangalan ko, ganito na ako ka-hysterical. For Fuck's sake Dillenna, umayos ka!
With clenched fists, I was about to strike the steering wheel when a call interrupted me from my drama.
"Baby? Are you okay?"nag-aalalang tanong ni Liam from the other line. Nanginginig ang labi ko sa pagpigil kong humagulhol. "I saw you rushing out from the gym. What was that? Is anything wrong baby?"
It's the tone of my Liam, my bestfriend. Iyon ang tono niya kapag nag-aalala ng sobra sa'kin. And that endearment of his na matagal kong hindi narinig sa kanya magmula ng malaman kong buntis si Amity, na-miss ko 'yon. But I just really hate them all right this moment.
"D? Where are you? Pupuntahan kita."
"I—I am fine. I'm on my way home. 'Wag mong iwan si Amity, baka kung ano pa ang mangyari sa kanya."
Not letting him any more words, I turned off the phone and ended the call. I closed my eyes and heaved a deep breath. Nang idilat ko ang mga mata ko, I was greeted with a face I just want to forget a few seconds ago. I beeped the car to signal him to go away but he didn't move.
"Wag ako ang hamunin mo Crawford."bulalas ko at saka binuhay ang engine ng sasakyan.
Akala mo ha, sasagasaan talaga kita kung hindi ka aalis. Don't make it so easy for me. Para malaman mo, ito ang gustong-gusto kong mangyari mula ng araw na 'yon. Ang tuluyang mawala ka nalang hindi lang sa buhay ko, kundi sa mundong 'to. I honked the car again. Hindi parin siya umalis sa kinatatayuan niya. Humigpit ang pagkakahawak ko sa steering wheel. Hinahamon mo talaga ako! Courageously, I lifted up my foot from the clutch pedal and pressed on the gas.
"What the fuck!"I hissed when I hit the brake.
Even with my shiverring knees, I headed out from the car to confront him.
"What the hell! Do you want me to kill you Crawford!!!!? Because it's the thing I really want to do!"
Napamura ulit ako nang marealize kung gaano nalang pala kalapit ang distance niya sa kotse. Kung pumikit ako kanina, baka wala na siyang malay ngayon.
"Sumagot ka! Baliw ka!"singhal ko habang hinampas ko siya sa braso. "Buwiset ka! Gagawin mo pa akong kriminal! Ano'ng problema mo sa buhay!!!!"
"Babygirl..."
Napatigil ako nang marinig ang boses niya. I can't cry here. Pinigilan ko ang sarili kong 'wag humagulhol. Umiiyak na pala ako. Kusang nagkuyom ang mga palad ko. Tinigasan ko ang puso ko at sinalubong ko ang mga nagmamakaawa niyang mata.
"Gago ka, Theon!"I blurted out as I slapped him right on his face. "Don't you ever call me that again!"
