You Will Love Me Back

Chapter 4: Left

Garreth's POV

I was busy playing with my guitar. I was so bored then ng biglang may kumatok sa may pinto ko at sinabing pinapatawag ako ni mommy. I recognized nana Lucy's voice. May naghihintay daw sa'kin sa labas. Napakunot naman ang noo ko at napaisip kung sino naman ang maghahanap sakin. I haven't told my friends yet na nandito na'ko sa bansa. Oh well, maybe my mom? no doubt.

"Who is it  nana ?  tanong ko.

Si Ma'am Rysse po sir.

"Rysse? why in hell would that girl visit me here? She heard the news that fast huh!?. My mom told her, I'm sure. Bilib naman talaga ako sa radar ng babae'ng yon!." Sabi ko sa sarili ko.

"Ok nana. I'll go down in a bit!" at naramdaman ko'ng umalis na sya.

" I never liked that girl but I know she has this thing for me. It might sound awful but I can feel it like any other girls did and she's not an exemption. 

 If that's animosity I feel towards her, then I can't help it. I don't know but she annoys me too much. It's been years but my feelings for her didn't change. She's irritating!

"She's bipolar! I don't know why she acts bad to others  while good to me. I can still remember those days na nagpupunta sila ng family nya  dito sa bahay, one time I caught her playing with a friend of mine at nakita ko'ng sinabunutan nya ang kawawang kaibigan ko at pinagbantaan.

" You deserved that! It's your fault! You don't mess with me at wa'g kang magsusumbong kung ayaw mo'ng makaaway ako!" dinig kong sigaw nya.

Tumakbo naman ang kaibigan ko palayo. 

" Bakit mo sinaktan ang kaibigan ko?!" "Ano ba'ng ginawa nya sa'yo?! "Sigaw ko sa kanya habang lumalabas sa lugar na pinagtataguan ko.

"S'ya-Sya kasi  Garetth, hinila nya yung buhok ko" pagdadahilan nya.

"Hindi yon ang nakita ko"! Ikaw, ikaw ang humila ng buhok nya! Who gave you the right to hurt my friends? It's not the first time you did it, but many times! I couldn't even count it. Sagot ko sa kanya ng pasigaw.

"I'm sorry but it's not my fault!"  Naiyak pa sya  at ang among nagpaliwanag sabay takbo at nilagpasan ako.

"How dare she lied?!", kitang-kita naman na sya ang nanakit.

 ---------------------------------

I took a shower and fixed my self. Sinadya ko'ng tagalan para mainip sya at umalis na. I don't like seeing her here  anyway.

Few moments more. I decided to go down.   I moved my eyes and check where they are in the living room. There I spotted a figure, and from the looks of it, it's her. and she's  busy chit-chatting with my mom. Napakunot ang noo ko.

She looks taller now and well mukha na nga syang dalaga, still bland as she is. 

I'm about to run to the door when mom called me. Napapikit ako sa inis. 

Lumapit ako and kissed her then left. Never did I glance at the girl beside her. I knew she's looking but I didn't give a damn. Parang sinisilihan ako at gusto ko na agad umalis.

It's a childish act and I look like a fool for my attitude. I just don't like her. That's it!. I need not elaborate ' coz me, myself couldn't explain it either.

Clarysse's POV

Hindi ko rin malimutan ang nangyari kanina. Kahit pa ilang beses ko'ng sabihin sa sarili ko na okay lang, still naiinis parin ako. Can't he be atleast a little civil?.  It's been years! Para naman akong may malaking kasalanan at nakakahawang sakit para di man lang nya tingnan at pansinin. He's just so full of himself at naiinis ako sa sarili ko na bakit hanggang ngayon sya parin ang gusto ko. Siguro nga alam nya kaya sya nagi-inarte at nagpapakipot. Parang ako pa ang lumalabas na lalaki dito. It's just so damn unfair!
