Cedrick's POV
"You made a news man. Kayong dalawa ni Cassey and that incident few days ago ang hot topic sa school newspaper. " sabi ko habang paupo. "What an unexpected confession of yours"Pagpapatuloy ko pa. Nandito kami sa bar nila. Pagkatapos ng nangyari sa school ground, balik na naman siya sa dati, drowning himself into drunkiness hanggang sa makatulog nalang siya. Araw araw ganito kaya naman bilang kaibigan niya, I'm here to help him clear everything in his mind. Alam kong naguguluhan pa siya, hindi niya alam kung ano ba ang gagawin now that he has finally fallen for her. Madali lang sana kung wala siyang boyfriend pero hindi ganun ang sitwasyon ngayon. She is with a man whom she really love, her first love to be clear.
"I knew it. Sabi na nga ba may gusto ka na sa kanya. I told you pare. So kailan pa?" I uttered again but he just ignored my words. Tuloy lang siya sa paginom. He seemed broken, hurt, pained and frustrated. Who would have thought that the man who used to make girls cry and the reason for their broken hearts is the one who is tormented now. Isang Cassandra Fernandez lang pala ang katapat niya.
"what?" tanong niya. Hindi ko kasi mapigilang hindi mapangiti kapag naalala ko 'yung mga kwento niya, kalimitan ang topic ay tungkol kay Cassandra.
"wala lang pare. I just remember what you said before. Sabi mo, you will make her fall for you, to see if she is just like anybody else or not.. .but it seems like baliktad ang nangyari. You are the one who have fallen for her" Sabi na nga ba, simula ng makilala niya si Cassandra, unti unti na siyang nagbabago. He never liked to talked about his girls and what they did. Iyon ata ang unang beses na nagkwento siya ng tungkol sa isang babae. The way he smiled as he said her name at 'yung mga pinaggagagawa nila were enough reason to say na tinamaan nga talaga siya sa kanya. Hindi ko naman siya masisisi, maganda naman talaga kasi si Cassandra.
"so what's the next plan now?" pagiiba ko sa usapan. I want to know what would gonna do now. It would become hard for him to have her dahil na rin sa boyfriend nito.
"wala" he just lamely answered. He's being really different now. Not the usual him pagdating sa mga babae.
"wala? pagkatapos ng breaking news na confession mo, wala ka nang gagawin? Hindi ganyan ang isang Tristan Ezekiel Mike. Bigla nalang susuko sa true love niya? Walang torpe satin pre"
"anong gusto mong gawin ko?"
"Win her. Make her yours. Make her realized whom she really belong." Tiningnan niya lang ako saglit and smirk. A smirk not for success or anything good but to hide his pain.
"ayoko nga"
"huh?"
"why should I forced myself to someone who doesnt like me. There are plenty of fishes in the ocean"
"but she's not an ordinary fish you can anytime have. Ikaw na nga mismo ang nagsabi, she's different...she's special" Natigilan pa siya saglit pero hindi na siya nagsalita. Ipinagpatuloy lang niya ang paginom ng alak.....
Pagibig nga naman....

Cassey's POV
Days turn into weeks. It's been how many days since that flabbergasting incident. Mike and I havent really talked to each other. Hindi ko na rin siya madalas makita sa campus. If ever we accidentally see each other, iwasan lang ang nagyayari...
Honestly, until now I still can't believe on what he just said. He likes me? No, he loves me? Talaga? I still can't find his reasons for that matter.
