Dear Diary

Day Thirty-Eight

<Tina>

What's up with these people?

Ano bang mga pinagkakaguluhan nila?

Tinanggal ko yung isang paper na nakapost sa mga wall at lockers.

"Congrats to Gale Gonzaga! We're proud of you!"

Oh.My.Gosh.

Are they serious?

This can't happen. She can't be more popular than I am.

I crumpled the paper at naglakad na papunta sa mga friends ko.

"Oh girl! Bakit parang hindi na maipinta yang mukha mo?"

"Wala!"

"Hahaha. Nakita mo ba yung mga posts ngayon? Ang galing ni Gale no--"

"Rachelle??!!"

"What?"

"Can you just stop talking about it? Yan nga ang reason kung bakit ako ganito ngayon e"

"Huh? What's your point?"

"Nothing. Wala lang. I just don't feel it. Ayoko! Ayoko siyang maging mas sikat saakin"

"Girl, ikaw parin naman ang most popular--"

"Yeah yeah yeah. Pero, I must do something about this"

"Huh? Diba, friends naman kayo ni Gale? Why can't you just be proud of her?"

"Friends? Ha-ha-ha. You're kidding right?"

"Ano nangyayari sayo Tina?"

"I saw her with James yesterday sa park"

"Then? What's the big deal? Malay mo nagkita lang sila"

"I don't know. Pero I feel something e."

"Hay.. I think you're just over reacting Tina"

"I am not!"

"Yes you are!"

"Hay... I thought you're my friend."

"I am."

"Then bakit parang you're on HER side?"

"I'm no one's side, Tina"

"Ok fine. Basta, I can't let this happen. Let's go!"

"(-_-)"

<Gale>

Takteng yan!!!! Bakit paos ako ngayon?? Pag gising ko bigla nalang wala akong boses at pipiyok piyok pa ako. Tsk!!!

"Gale. Congrats"

"Hi Gale"

"Gale! Way to go!"

Yan ang mga bati saakin ng mga tao sa school ngayon. Wow. Hindi ako sanay. Napapangiti nalang ako. I feel like a star. Dati I was a nobody, now, I'm somebody. Haha.

"Ang galing talaga ng bestfriend ko!"

"Hahaha. Thanks. Hindi parin ako makapaniwala e--"

"Gale! Gale!"

"Ui Francis!"

"Nakita mo na yung mga posters?"

"Oo. Ang sarap nga ng feeling e"

"Hahaha. You deserve this"

"Ano ka ba. I couldn't have done it without you. You also deserve this"
