"Vent it out now actress" Ichi said. We're on Bombongan again, sa aming tambayan meeting place o kung ano man ang magandang tawag sa lugar na to.
I was silent, looking from nowhere. Then naalala ko nanaman ang sinabi ni Isaiah
"Because....I care for her. She's like my sister. Alam mo naman yun di ba Saia?"
Tang na alam ko nga ba? Pero bakit sinasabi ng isip ko iba ang pagkakaalam ko? Ang alam ko he cares for me coz he thinks I am special to him to the point that he thinks that I am more than a friend. I assumed that. And it hurts. SAIA grabe ang tanga tanga mo lang.. Asyumera ka kasi feeling ka go DIE!
I kicked the bench a couple of times then stop realizing that it hurts.
"Hahaha sipain mo ba naman yang bench eh, masakit yan talaga" then laughed
I look at him sharply then he stops laughing.
"What do you think is the reason why we're here again?" he openly asked
"I don't know? To swim on the mud till we die?" I said
"Yeah that's the one. Wait what?"
"Or walk like a model in the middle of the road then wait for a truck then let yourself hit by it?"
"Huh?"
"Or maybe climb on the tree then jump. Ah you'll just have bruises when you try it. Tsk. Oh and-----"
"What the heck Saia? Do you want to let yourself killed?"
"A bit?" I murmured
"Hay .... you're broken"
"I am"
"Mentally"
"What do you mean by that?"
"Nothing"
"Aside from your killing-yourself-reasons, I do have my own reason why I want to stay here especially when I'm pissed off, annoyed, bothered, sad, mad, angry or other words aside on those that I mentioned" then he look at me. He seems serious on this matter, I wait for him to continue what his reason are. It slip on my mind, why of all the places he's keeping on stopping by here. What might be his reasons?
"Well it's because it was relaxing here"
Nagsalubong yung kilay ko sa sinabi nya. We're on the national road tapos may mga dumaraan din naman na vehicles papasok at mausok din pag nasa may bukana kami and he think that this place was relaxing?
"Really?" I asked looking unsatisfied
"Oo."
"Well if you say so. If you think this place looks relaxing despite on the fact that it was polluted and everything, hindi kita pipigilan" sabi ko
"I'm always venting out here when I'm bothered or pissed off and just want to leave my problems behind a bit"
"More like of meditating yourself or something?"
"Exactly." he answered lively
"Ok"
His smile fades away after he saw me. I guess I look very bored.
"Shout" he said
"Ha?"
"I said shout"
"Are you ordering me to shout?"
