Everybody Loves Somebody (Short story)

Chapter 3

@School

Papunta na ko lockers.

Nakita ko si Janice at Michael na naguusap nanaman...

They really get along well, but...

whatever

"Hey!" Ako

"Hey!" Janice

"Hello, Michelle." Michael

"Hi." Ako

"O sya pnta na tau sa room." Janice

Naglakad na kmi papunta sa room nmin. PE nmin ngaun, kya magbibihis kmi ng PE uniform nmin. After that nag warm up muna kmi tas pnatakbo kmi ni Sir, napagod na kmi kya nagpahinga muna kmi ni Janice.

"Hey Janice, gusto mo ba si Michael?" Ako

"What? No way." S'ya

"You can tell me the truth... because honestly, I don't like Michael anymore."

"What? Really?"

"Yeah... I was happy that Michael said he liked me, so I just got excited."

"...oh.. I started to talk to Michael because you started date him. And I thought that I couldn't because he was your boyfriend." S'ya

"Oh I see."

Love is so complicated.

Pagkatpus nun pnaubaya ko na lng s'ya kay Michael.

After that, they started to date. I was a little bit lonely, peo bgay nmn cla e. So I got happy just by watching them.

"Michelle bye bye!" Nagpa alam ng umuwi cna Janice at Michael

"Bye bye!" Ako

Ok... love is really complicated... last month I was really nervous and anxious, I was really inlove. Where did those feelings go? Where...

Apparently Michael likes Michelle from the next class, he actually told me. Last week.
