Kath's PoV

Posible bang bumalik ang hindi na dapat bumalik? At itong nararamdaman ko, dapat ko nga bang iwaglit? Dahil sa tuwing sila'y aking nakikita, ako man ay napapangiti, sa likod nito ay may tinatagong pighati.

Corny as it seems, but I composed it on the spot inside my smart brain and as I compose it, I feel like I've been watching tons of flashbacks about them.

What did I ever do wrong to witness this again?!?

"What can you say Twinkie?" Tanong ni Chris kay Seychelle.

Magkahawak pa sila ng kamay.

Twinkie...

That word reminds me of everything..

"Truly fascinating, wide and spacious. I might get lost in here." Sagot naman ni Seychelle ng nakangiti.

They look so happy... So sweet and so full of love kahit na kakasimula palang ng relasyon nila.

"Hindi ka maliligaw dito. I'm here, 12th P.S is here and Kath is also here. Right, guys?"

Lumingon sa amin si Chris.

" OO NAMAN!"

" KAMI PA!"

"JUST CALL US AND WE'LL GO STRAIGHT TO YOU!"

"ANYTHING FOR OUR MASTER'S GIRLFRIEND!"

Sunud-sunod nilang sagot maliban sa akin.

"How 'bout you Kath?" Tanong sa akin ni Chris.

"H-ha? Oo naman. Nandito lang kami kaya sureball na hindi ka maliligaw." Sabi ko kay Bhest.

"Aww.. Thank you guys!" Pasasalamat niya.


Nagpatuloy kami sa paglilibot. Sa totoo lang, ideya ito ni Chris na ilibot si Bhest sa St. Claire kasama ako at ng 12th P.S. since transferee kasi siya dito.

Ang sweet talaga nila and I can see in their eyes that they love each other especially in Chris' eyes. He never smiled like that to anyone, not even to me. Why the hell am I bothered about it anyway?Talagang iniintroduce pa niya si Bhest sa mga professors at sa iba pang staffs dito sa University. Pati ang mga facilities at hallways ay binabanggit din ni Chris sa pagtu-tour niya. At mukhang pati ang 12th P.S ay nageenjoy din sa pag-tour sa kanya.

Actually, they all seem to like Seychelle. It's like she became our breather when she arrived since our lives has been gray ever since Karisse vanished into thin air.

I smile bitterly.

Hindi dapat ganito ang nararamdaman ko pero simula nang maging sila, bumabalik ang ganitong pakiramdam ko. Ang pakiramadam na parang may inagaw sa akin at ang pakiramdam na wala na naman akong muwang sa kanila.

But Seychelle is not Karisse. I am certain of it. And Chris must probably mistaken that her ex and Seychelle are one. And if I know better, I think he still loves Karisse.

Kung ako siguro ang minahal niya, hindi niya mararanasang masaktan ng paulit ulit.

Kaso hindi naman yun ang nararamdaman niya para sa akin. In his eyes, I'm just a friend. Nothing more and nothing less.

Could it be possible that she's really alive? Kung siya nga, diba dapat galit ako sa kanya dahil iniwan nya kami? Iniwan niya si Chris!

If only she knew how much pain and agony he went through. He was so devastated. Like his heart was shattered into dark pieces of yesterday.
