Paoline POV
"Can i kiss you?"
Ang lakas ng kabog ng dibdib ko dahil hindi ko alam kung pano ako magrereact sa sinabi ni zed. Palapit na siya at kitang kita ko paano nya ako tinitigan.
"Uy look at the stars o ang gaganda"
Sabi ko, mukhang naawkward din siya so we ended up talking about the stars again. Bakit ang weird ng nararamdaman ko? This is not my first to encounter this kinds of people pero itong si zed he makes me uncomfortably weird.
Then he suddenly looked into his phone.
"Ahh itong ex ko naghahabol nanaman saakin pero ayaw ko na talaga"
Sabi niya, i stared at him blankly kase naman i have no idea how their relationship got ended all i know its been a month nung break up nila.
Zed mackenzie POV
"Hey i dont like commitments"
Sabi bigla ni paoline, i smiled cause i feel the same way. Nung una nga i just only want to fuck this girl so bad. Pero if im staring at her theres something that i just cant touch her, shes something that i want to protect. I feel so responsible around her plus i always miss her when shes not around. Still i dont like commitments and i really like where this is gonna go.
"Ako din i dont like commitments"
"Pero i accept friendships a"
shes so precious my outside world is blurry when im around her.
I like the way she drinks beer and sit with me in this rooftop around 1 am and talk about weird things. Umaga na pero naguusap padin kami we both saw the sunrise and she admired how the sun rise. Sabi niya she has allergies when the sun is too hot.
"Ano uwi kana ba? Hatid na kita sa labas"
I offered and she agreed hinatid ko siya sa gate namin at pinasakay na pauwi. I was smiling the entire night and went straight to bed. Its really good and it feels so comfortable.
--
Kagigising ko palang i already texted her and she always replies so fast. I dont need to ask her where she is cause i know shes always at her bed lying. Shes a lazy girl and i find it cute. Sabi niya pupunta daw siya ng manila. Dun palang sa sinabi niya i already miss her. Walang araw na i didnt text her or called her nung nagpunta sya ng manila for three days.
Lumabas ako para magbasketball nang nagulat ako sa nakita ko, my heart got crashed into pieces hindi ko na alam gagawin ko. I was silent for a moment and i tried to stop my tears. At that moment all i can think is "freya"
Si freya ay backride ng ibang lalake sa motor. I am silent when paoline texted me.
"Si gray may iba na daw sabi sakin ng kaibigan ko"
She was crying on the phone and binababa nya, i dont know how to react because parehas kami ng situation. I kept on texting her but she cant reply well dama ko yung sakit sa mga text palang nya saakin.
Text
Zed: hey calm yourself
Paoline: zed i cant
Zed: im here, i know
Paoline : i really cant zed it hurts sobra
Paulit ulit yung sinasabi niyang i cant kahit anong sabihin ko sakanya. I feel so bad i cant do anything right now shes too far away. I just want to hug her and i cant .her world is really falling apart. Why would a guy do something like this to her. Sabi niya uuwi na daw siya, finally. I cant wait to hug her. The next day dumaan nanaman si freya dito and the guy was staring at me i cant react instead i looked at her.
Come home paoline i need you.
