My eyes flattered open, pinahid ni Shun ang mga luha ko.

"Now, now, hushh.."

"Shun.." I sobbed.

I really missed him. Tuwing umiiyak ako o nalulungkot there he was to comfort me.

Shun is like a brother to me. He is like a God's gift that given to me.

"Hulaan ko, are you crying over a guy?"

Over a guy?

"Am I right, Julia? I have a cussing-rule. Just date them and if hindi talaga mag work just dumped it!", there was a humorous tone in his statement, and despite the pain, I couldn't help but smile.

Hinampas ko siya sa balikat. "Player! Palibhasa playboy."

Humalakhak ito. "At least, I treat my girls like a princess. Fair and square."

"There is always karma.", diniinan ko pa ang salitang karma. "Makikita mo rin ang katapat mo!"

Ginulu-gulo ni Shun ang buhok ko. "So, care to tell me what happened?"

"It's Zyle. He.. he.."

"Do you like him?"

"Of course, not! You know how much I hate him!"

"Then, why are you crying?"

Nalilitong tiningnan ko si Shun. Ano ba ang gusto nitong iparating? Nilaru-laro ko ang daliri ko. Naguguluhan ako.

"It's because-- I don't know!", I practically shouted. This conversation adding to my headache.

Shun rolled his eyes. "Your confused. Then, what about Hunter?"

"Hey, how'd you know him?"

Shun raise his eyebrows. "Everyone knows him. His the famous black prince."

"I'm not interested in him either!"

"Do you feel anything about these men? A feeling that something weird?"

"Feelings?", I asked, furrowing my brows. Humalukipkip ako,"Don't lecture me, Shun. Ikaw dapat ang nasasabihan. Gayahin mo ang twin mo na in love lang sa isa."

Shun smiles. "I'm one sided in love."

Shun's face become more serious. Ako naman napataas ang kilay. Hindi makapaniwala sa sinabi nito. He's a typical playboy-- a cassanova. Kaya naman malaking bugtong para sa akin kung sino ang nagugustuhan nito.

"You mean, you like her? As in LIKE her?"

"She's my first love."

Naalala ko tuloy nung elementary kami. Kapag may nambu-bully sa akin he rush over to rescue me. He's my hero. My knight in shining armour. Kapag nadadapa ako he comes over for my aid. Kung umiiyak ako he will tell me jokes. Ironic, isn't it?

He laughed when he noticed I was spacing out.

"Sino?"

Ngumuso si Shun saka bumulong sa akin. "Secret."

Sumimangot ako. Ayaw pa talaga i-share?

Shun grabbed my bag."Come on, ihahatid na kita sa room mo."

"Julia.."

Gulat na napatingin ako sa kinauupuan ni Shanna. Finally turn away from my daydream looking at her. "Why?"

"May problema ka ba? Kanina ka pa tulala diyan."

Hindi ako kumibo. Tama, nawiwindang ako sa mga sunud-sunod na pangyayari sa buhay ko. My mind went back to what happened at the library when I saw Zyle and Lizzy kissing!
