Soiree's POV
"Ganto na naman ba tayo Calvin? Last time I caught you flirting with someone else, wala akong sinabi, sinarili ko lang yung sakit. And now...." hindi ko na naituloy yung dapat kong sabihin. My heart has been stabbed by the same person many times but I decided to stay right beside him. Simply, because I love him, way too much.
"Ree, I am a damn songwriter for pricks sake!" he exclaimed.
"So you are supposed to sleep with every artist na gagawan mo ng kanta dahil lang sa song writer ka? Oh come on Calvin! How could you!" I've been screaming the words that has left unsaid for a long time. Hindi siya umimik.
"Bakit si Ten? Bakit si Mack? Bakit si Khaos? Nakikihalubilo din sila sa mga artista kagaya mo but I never heard one of them slept with their artist! TANGING IKAW LANG! AM I EVEN WORTHY TO YOU? MULTO BA AKO SAYO? AM I AN ORNAMENT THAT IS SUPPOSED TO BE HANGED AROUND WITH YOU? Pagod na pagod na pagod na ako Calvin! I've been dealing with all your craps for the very long time and the astonishing fact is that I dealt with those all by myself." I cried myself out, punong puno na ako.
"Soiree, I am sorry" he held my hands.
I hope it still be as effective like before, but it isn't.
"Hanggang dito na lang ang kaya ko, Calvin. Let's not see each other again. I hope you take a good care of yourself" mabigat man sa loob ko pero kailangan kong gawin to.
I've been a martyr I guess. I walked away, away from him. Tuloy tuloy ang pag-agos ng luha sa mata ko. I never really imagined myself breaking up with him.
I dialed Mack's number and luckily she picked up.
"Hey" bati niya. "Mind having a drink with me?" aya ko, pumayag naman siya.
Naghintay ako sa tent malapit sa Ainsoft, she arrived in just a couple of minutes.
"What's wrong?" she asked. "Mugto yang mata mo. Don't tell me pinaghiwa ka na naman nila ng sako sakong sibuyas. That's lame. Overused" dugtong niya.
She's a friend who knows me well, among Celestene and Khaos, Mack knows me very well.
"Baliw, you're making me laugh" sagot ko pero imbis na tawa ang kumawala sa labi ko, hagulgol na lang ang lumabas.
Lumapit siya sa akin, niyakap niya at hinaplos haplos ang likuran ko.
"I.... already gave up, Mack. I am sorry" I vocalized.
"Hush.. you did the right thing. I am sorry for advicing you to hold on." kumalas siya sa pagkakayakap niya sa akin. "Ano ng plano mo?"
"Aalis muna siguro dito. Magpapakalayo." sagot ko naman.
"Aalis? Saan ka pupunta? Don't tell me you're going out of the country" she asked.
"Ahjumma, mekju" (Madam, beer) request ko agad naman dumating yung order namin.
I opened it at sinumulan na ang pag-inom.
"Maybe yes. Maybe no. Do you know some place here na tago?" I asked.
"Uhm yeah, but I also want to keep that place hidden for some reasons. But I know someone that can help." sagot niya at nilabas niya ang phone niya.
"Who?" I asked.
"Ten" she answered. Hinayaan ko siyang tawagan si Ten but to our failure, ayaw niyang mainvolve sa kung ano man ang nangyari between me and Calvin.
