I love him but I rather not be..

11: Sympathy of a Friend

: Elaine’s POV:

I ran, ran away as far as I can, anu bang mali ang ginawa ko? Why is Daniel so sudden naging ganun saakin? Umiiyak ako hindi dahil sa kamalian ko kanina, I cried because the attitude he showed to me. Tumigil ako infront of the org room, di ko na kaya masyadong mahirap ma absorb lahat nang nangyayari, I know drake was behind me all the time though hindi ko sya pinapansin alam ko na nagaalala sya sakin.

He came towards me and he came down in me, hindi ko na alam kong paano pa ako mag rereact sa mga nangyayari sa paligid ko. I hugged him, that’s what I think I can do for myself and then umiyak ako ng umiyak. Ngayon lang to nangyari sakin, umiiyak ako, oo lalo na pag about sa kanya, pero yung umiyak ako dahil sa kanya? No it never happened to me.

Elaine it’s all right, hush my lady I don’t like seeing you like this.

He patted my back to make me calm, ang init ng kamay nya it’s like he’s passing his life force to me, I don’t want him to stop for now..

i..i.. don’t know what I di-d..wrong D—r-ake, why is he doing this to me, utal utal akong nagsalita because tears was just running to my face like I was the famous falls around the globe.

You did nothing wrong Elaine it’s just that emotion came first when you encountered each other, Elaine if I were you, rest today and finish it early tomorrow, your hands its shivering, we both know that Art can’t be pressured and forced right?

He smiled at me, he looks so calm, I was sobbing all the time, and yet kinakalma niya ko ng maige.

You know what, let’s just go to the mall and release all the stress you feel, treat ko naman, okay ba yun?

Tumango na lang ako, hindi ako makapagsalita dahil hikbi ako ng hikbi. Tinayo niya ako and he helped me walk, hawak niya ang kamay ko, I felt his warmth and I feel safe with him..

: Daniel’s POV:

She walked out on me, I regret what I did, hindi ko alam kung bakit ganito ako ngayon, all of a sudden naiinis ako pag nakikita ko yung Drake na yun. I know what I did was wrong pero kahit kailan hindi ako inalisan ni Elaine, she was the only one who I can ever be okay with. Pero hindi ko naisip yun, that was the first time I saw her pale, parang may bumabagabag sa kanya. I was speechless when she left, pero nung nakita kong sumunod si Drake sa kanya, I feel so furious again, bakit ba ko ganito? She has a lot of male friends pero pag sa kanya ewan ko ba!

Are you alright Daniel? Hayaan mo siya, maybe napahiya siya kaya umalis, she’s worth it you know, we told her the deadline so it is her responsibility to finish it..

I know Lorris, hindi mo kailangan ulit ulitin, and besides you don’t have the right to say that to her, bestfriend ko pa rin siya, and even you, your still not finished with your research diba? So what gives you right to say those things? naiinis ako, badtrip na nga ginagatungan pa.

Sorry Daniel I was just—

Yeah right, nevermind Okay guys since we’ve just heard Ms. Elaine we shouldn’t be having problems by now, I just a summary report for the events and the guest speaker’s availability

Asan na kaya ngayon si Elaine, is she alright? Okay parin kaya kami?? I need to talk to her I need to settle things down with her, I can’t stand a day na hindi kami naguusap even thought were just best friends..

I was walking through the parking lot, hinihintay ko yung sundo ko, when I noticed someone so familiar, I got nearer and have a better view, si Elaine pala yun she was so pale and her eyes are sore because of crying, lalapit sana ako, when that Drake guy showed up.
