CHAPTER 2

CHAPTER 2: PRODIGIOUS HUNTRESS

S H A N A

My head was still pondering the words he spatted yesterday. Like a voice record repeatedly playing on my mind. Hera, my closest friend was continue babbling about the guy he just met on the other day. Hindi ko na naririnig ang mga sinasabi niya dahil sa isipin na 'yon. I was too clouded on my thoughts that I don't even know where I was.

"Tapos 'yon.." untag niya. "Kaya hanggang ngayon nalilito pa rin ang puso ko. Hays! 'Di ko na nga alam ang gagawin eh."

'Yung huling pangungusap na sinabi niya lang ang pumasok sa utak ko. I blinked my eyes a few times and shook my head off.

"Uy, okay ka lang?" she asked.

"Hm-mm.."

"Para kang lutang?"

I shot a deadly glare and shook my head. Hera is a human shit detector, kahit hindi ko direktang sabihin sa kaniya ang kalagayan ko. She knows when I felt different, I guess its one of her flaws.

"Narinig mo ba 'yung sinabi ko?" nakangiting tanong niya.

"Nope."

"Eh? Ang haba haba ng talumpati ko! Halos abutin na ko ng isang oras para lang sabihin sa'yo 'yun." angal nito. She pouted her lips, she thought of that way as a cute movement. And I'm not.

"Who cares about that bastard anyway? He can cheat whenever he want. You don't deserve him. How many times did you forgive him? Four or five? Whatever the answer is, stop hanging around him." I advice. Nilapag ko ang dalawang katana sa center table para mamayang gabi.

"Paulit-ulit niya kasing sinasabi sa 'kin na magbabago na siya, and everytime he does aakalain mong sincere siya."

"And guess what is the foolest part? Pa ulit-ulit mo rin siyang pinapatawad. He's taking you for granted. Alam niya kasing papatawarin mo siya kaya pa ulit-ulit ka niyang niloloko. Tss. Tanga!" If only I could slapped Hera para gisingin siya sa reyalidad at sa mundo niyang ginagalawan. Hindi sana magiging sarado ang utak at mata niya sa mga ganitong bagay.

She was extremely reckless when love is concern, puro puso ang kaniyang pinapairal. Para bang siya lang ang human being na walang utak pag dating sa ganitong bagay. Not even thinking what the possible circumstances may happen.

She flocks around those hot guys she met along the way and end up defeated and ruin in the end of the day. She never learned.

"Fine! Tanga na kung tanga, I guess ganoon talaga ako."

"Matagal na." walang buhay na tugon ko. Matapos kong pakintabin ang dalawang katana, isinuksok ko ito sa kulay itim at magkakrus na sisidlan, na nakadikit sa likod ng damit ko.

"Masisisi mo ba ako kung puso na ang nagdikta?"

"Tss! Walang iba na dapat sisihin diyan sa katangahan mo. For the fact, its not your heart who tells you na magpakatanga ka ng paulit-ulit sa kaniya. You, yourself is to blame, nothing else." pasigaw kong sagot.

"I guess that's how it works. Sadyang bulag ako para makita ang katotohanan." she pouted.

"Tch! Hindi ka bulag, Hera. Nagpapakabulag ka sa nararamdamang hindi naman dapat. You're always gave me petty excuses to cover up your foolish deeds when it comes to love. Your reputation, and the way you see love is not supposed to be that way." humugot ako ng malalim na paghinga at nagpatuloy. "Tulad sa pagsusugal, bakit ka tataya kung alam mong matatalo ka? Katangahan ang tawag 'don. Unless iba ang trip mo sa buhay, you used to be the toy of those players. Why don't you turn the tables and be the manipulative player, in that way you could open your eyes from the fake dreams."
