Unexpectedly [KathNiel]

💘 7 | Consequences

DEAN

I've met her again...

Ewan ko rin kung bakit hindi siya nawala sa isip ko nung una ko siyang makita. I can't help but think there's something about her that other girls don't have.

The guys accepted them to be part of our group. Para naman daw medyo balance yung girls and boys sa tropa. I don't mind anyway.

"Guys, orientation's already starting. Tara na!" Biglang sabi ni Peter.

"Teka lang Dash, si Kath?" Tanong ni Ariella kay Jule at Malia. As I've observed, they're really close to each other. The four of them.

"Magpapahangin daw muna siya diba, kasi medyo nahihilo daw siya kanina?" Hindi siguradong sagot ni Malia.

"Nandun siguro sa field. She likes the atmosphere there." Jule said. Nahihilo? Baka buntis? Ha Ha Tawa na kayo. Tsk!

"Let's go!" Aya ko sa kanila since they're not moving.

"Susunod na daw siya. She replied to my text." Pinakita ni Ariella yung phone niya samin.

Dumiretso kami sa hall na pinagdausan ng orientation at buti na lang hindi kami na late.

"Dun tayo." Shaun pointed an empty row in the middle.

"Hi, Dj!"
"Cute mo Dj!"
"I miss you, Dj!"
"Dean, ang gwapo mo talaga!"
"Shaun, ang gwapo mo din!"
"Enrieque, pa-picture!"
"Pa-hug Dean!"
"Trevor, akin ka na lang!"

"Excuse me... girlfriend here." Humarang naman si Jule sa harap ni Trevor kaya napa-simangot na umalis yung nagsabi nun. Trevor just laughed at her girlfriend.

"Peter, ang--"

"Oops, Oops, Oops! Wag mo na ituloy. Makakatikim ka sa galit ko." Malia glared at the girl who's hitting on her boyfriend.

Good thing I'm single this time. I don't have to undergo that thing because recently, I just let go of her for good.

I just realized that she's serious about her decision of leaving me before. Ngayon lang ako natauhan.

Remember the first time I met Katherine? I know you did.

That park where I first met her, where I confessed my love for her, where she said she loved me. The park who witnessed our love for each other. And the one and only park who also know how broken I was when she said she loved someone else's.

I would love to reminisce more but I can't be sorrier to myself. I need to forget and move on. She's happy right now. I should be happy with my life now too right? That was already years ago. I should move on...

That's why I started to love cars to divert my attention.

"Sikat pala kayo dito?" I smirked at Ariella's question. She seemed to notice those girls screaming our names.

"Masanay ka na Dash." Malia answered. Ayaw niya kasi yung dinudumog kami. Ayaw niyang nalalapitan yung boyfriend niya. I understand her. I should be. They're my friends.

The host of the orientation started her introductory speech. As usual, welcome back samin, welcome sa mga bago... Inaantok tuloy ako.

"At this juncture, we will now proceed to PIU's tradition. Let's all acknowledge the presence of the person who got the highest grade on the entrance exams last week..."

Kung hindi lang a-attend si Dad sa event na ganito, I would love to just sleep and kill time on the SR.

"...For this year, she's a transferee and of course a girl. She's a BSBA Major in Marketing Student..."
