Flappy Bird.
"I hate you more than I hate this bird."

Me playing flappy bird:
" You flappy peice of sht. "
" I DIDN'T EVEN TOUCH IT. "
" Oh my god. "
" Fck. "
" I'm going to kill everything you love. "
" YOU DON'T EVEN LOOK LIKE A BIRD. "
"Hey Maddie, meet at the club xx?" I stopped playing flappy bird and binalik ang cellphone sa bulsa ko. Then I saw Elberth, standing over there looking like a god. He looks hot and gorgeous. No one can resist him. He pushed his body to me, now we're closer. Oh ghod.
"Sure. Omg I love you na Elberth." I answered in a flirty way. That's the Maddie Lopez way. Flirt, slut -- you can call me what you want. It's your mouth, you can say what you want to. I have the looks - the looks of the goddesses, pinaglihi daw ako ng mommy ko kay Aphrodite, the goddess of beauty. I have the body, pang coca cola in bottle. Looks can be decieving.
I heard the school bell rings. Time for classes. Umalis na si Elberth and papunta na sana ako sa classroom when I heard someone talking to me.
"Dumikit lang, nahulog na agad? Parang Flappy Bird lang ah." Nakita ko si Riaun leaning on the wall. Inirapan ko lang siya at pumasok na sa classroom namin. I don't care, that's me afterall.
He's Riaun Ramos, the typical perfect student of the school. He's always the top of the class, his grades are perfect but he's not a nerd. He's a bully, a moron. Classes ended. Whoo, time to party! This is my usual routine. Going to clubs, flirt to boys, kissing, you name it. As usual, the slutty and flirty attitude of mine so get used to it.
"Flappy bird. You are like that bird, everybody hate you." Lumingon ako then I saw Riaun again. Tumaas ang kilay ko? Do I look like I care kahit everybody hates me. Idec. Again, inirapan ko lang siya and patuloy sa paglalakad. Nagpapasalamat talaga ako na hindi niya na ako sinusundan.

"I'm breaking up with you Maddie. Afterall, everyone says you're a bitch." Napatigil ako sa pagsayaw when Elberth nagsalita. Yeah, naging kami kanina lang. I sighed, as usual. Everyday, this happens. Magiging kami then breaking up with me. I'm like toys, parang laruan ako. Kung nasasawa na sila, they just gonna throw me away.
Lumabas na ako sa club xx. I can't -- I've had enough. Umiyak ako, a tear fell in my precious eyes. Every night, everyday, I shed thears. Who says wala akong feelings? Na I'm a robot? Emotionless? You got it wrong, tao ako. May feelings din ako.
Kinuha ko ang phone ko and naglaro ng Flappy Bird. The latest trend game. Habang naglalaro ako, patuloy pa rin tumutulo ang mga luha ko. Stop it tears.
Game Over.
This letter, fck you. Fck this building, fck these bushes, fck you. Fck this little guy, fck youuuu. This dumb ass bird, get on my last damn nerve, like damn. I'm so sorry for my mouth. But I wanna shout and curse at this moment. Game over naman ako sa Flappy bird. 10 yung score.Sucks right? Yeaaah.
"So how's my ex girlfriend?" He emphasize the word 'ex'. I look up and saw Riaun. Yeah, he's one of my ex boyfriend ko. Sa dinami ng mga boyfriend ko naging isa na siya doon. Too complicated ang mga bagay noon nang naging kami.
I didn't answer him and continue playing Flappy Bird.
"You know I hate you more than I hate that bird." He said. He's referring to the bird na nilalaro ko. Hindi ko pa rin siya pinapansin. Daling-dali ko pinunasan ang mga luha ko, baka makita pa ni Riaun and ito and call me a stupid.
"Kung titingnan mo nga naman. Flappy bird ay parang buhay. You come in all alone, trying to learn how to fly and make it all the way to the end. You don't what you're looking for of why you want it so bad but you keep pushing. You dodge obstacles and lift up over barriers as you search for what you're looking for. And kahit it mus be really frustrating and sa mga oras na impossible, you always get up and try again."
Napanga-nga ako sa sinabi niya. He knew all along na meron akong feelings? He must be watching me or not, stop assuming Maddie. He's my first boyfriend, my first of everything. It must be cliche. First kisses, first hugs, first date, first flowers, first valentines, and all along.
"Flappy bird isn't the only thing that's hard, Maddie." He said looking in my eyes.
"Ano ang ibig mong sabihin?"
"Flappy bird ay parang buhay ulit. It's easy to fall and fail but it's hard to move on and succeed." Tatayo na sana ako na meron pa siyang sinasabi. "Naging bitch and slut ka ba ng dahil sa akin? Tell me." Sasagot pa sana ako when his lips met my lips.
It's useless. My lips that lie. Even if I dont's say it. Mahal ko pa siya.
"To fall for you is just as easy as fall in Flappy Bird." He said. I remained silent.

"Maddie, Flappy Bird ka ba?" Riaun asked me. Ito na naman siya, naglolokohan.
"Bakit?"
"Dahil .."
