MY EX IS THE NEXT?[the bitter tale]

Rain

I gasped. The drop tower will start in seconds.
Napansin 'kong nanginginig si Timothy so I looked at him. He's afraid of this type of rides.
"Pwede ka namang bumaba, if you can't handle to ride in this." He opened his eyes.
"No. Sasamahan kita." I chuckled.
"Fine."
"STAAAAART!"

I smiled as the ride stopped.
"Timothy! It was fun! Isn't it?"
Tumakbo sya sa gilid at nagsimula nang sumuka. I laughed. This is fun.
"Are you alright?"
He nodded.
"Dyan ka lang. Hahanap lang ako ng gamot."
Biglang may magandang ideya ang sumulpot sa utak ko. Eh kung umuwi na ako? I'll get his car? No. Hayaan mo sya dun.

I laughed. I'm so wicked. But I like it.

Pinara 'ko 'yung bus at sumakay na. That guy, he deserves this. Pero parang nagigulty yata ako? No. Hindi. Hindi ako marunong nun.

I sighed. How if I sleep? It's still 10 in the morning. I'll just sleep until I get home.

Binuksan 'ko 'yung gate ng bahay namin. Trying my best para hindi ako mapansin ni Mama.
"Kylene." I snapped, nakaupo sya sa garden at parang hinihintay ako. Alam nyang uuwi ako?
"I can't believe you can really do this."
"Surprise Ma! I'm home!" I hugged her.
"Go back to Timothy, he's waiting for you." She sighed.
"Nakalimutan mo na ba ang magandang asal? Bakit mo sya iniwanan?"
"I can't bear to be with him! Can't you understand,Ma?"
"Kung hindi mo sya kayang mahalin ulit, atleast be friends with him. He loves you." I smiled.
"Ma, nakalimutan mo na bang ang ginawa nya sakin noon? Niloko nya 'ko,Ginago nya ako Ma!"
"Patawarin mo na sya anak! Nagmamakaawa ako sayo!" I laughed.
"How can you do this to me,Ma?"
"Isa lang ang rason 'ko. Gusto kitang makitang masaya ulit."
"I am happy."
"Balikan mo si Timothy, nakakahiya sa kanya."
"Alright, if that will what make you happy." I stormed out of our house. 5PM na. Huwag 'mong sabihing naghihintay pa din sya sakin dun? Ang tanga nya naman. Nakakainis na.
Bakit hindi nalang sya umuwi? Ano bang problema nya? Wala ba syang common sense?

Habang nasa bus ako, the rain started to fall.
Biglang pumasok sa isip ko 'yung araw na iniwanan ako ni Timothy, ganitong buwan din 'yon. March.

I laughed. Parang biglang bumaliktad ang mundo, dati sya 'yung umiiwas sakin.. Ngayon ako naman 'yung taboy ng taboy sa kanya. Dahil mahal na mahal ko sya, ngayon sya naman 'yung nababaliw sa kakaisip 'kung paano ako babalik sa kanya.

Hindi mo talaga pwedeng i-predict ang mangyayari pa lang. Madaming bagay ang pwedeng magbago at nagbabago. Walang bagay ang permanente.

Bumaba ako sa bus, gabi na. 9 or 10 something,nababasa na ako. But I have to find Timothy for the sake of my mother. I know she'll bother me until I've found Timothy

Bukas pa rin ang Sky Ranch. Pero iilan nalang ang taong makikita mo. Dahil na din siguro sa lakas ng ulan. Saan ko naman hahanapin ang lalaking 'yon dito?

Bumalik ako sa may drop tower. Pero wala sya dun. Nasaan kaya sya? Hindi talaga marunong sumunod! Inis!

"Kai?" I looked back, "Is that you? You're already back? For me?"
Basang-basa na sya. Humaharang ang blonde nyang buhok sa mga mata nya.
He approached me and hugged me.. na naging dahilan para makonsensya ako.
"I knew it, You can't leave me here alone." He chuckled. He's still happy. How can be happy? Pinaglaruan ko sya.
"Why did you..."
"Hmm?"
"Why didn't you go home?"
Tears started to run down my face. Pero pinipigilan ko na malaman nya. Ayokong isipin nya na umiiyak nanaman ako dahil sa kanya.
"Sabi mo kasi babalik ka.. And once you promise.. I know you'll definitely do it."
I hugged him back.
"Timothy you make me feel bad."
"I love you, Kai."

Tahimik lang ako sa kotse habang nagdadrive sya pabalik sa hotel namin. Nakokonsensya ako. Kahit na alam ko sa sarili ko na hindi naman kasalanan 'yung ginawa 'ko. He deserves it.

"Are you alright?"
He asked. Nakatulala lang ako sa labas ng kotse, hindi ko alam ang sasabihin 'ko sa kanya. Nakokonsensya ako. And he's doing good making me feel that way.

"Ah.. yeah."
"Is there something bothering you?"
"You." I looked at him.
"What? Why?"
"Why do you have to act this way?"
I hissed. "May balak ka nanaman 'bang saktan ako? Please,I beg you. Stop it."
He smiled at me.
"You don't understand, Kylene."
"Then what?"
"I love you."
"Faker."
"I love you,please believe me."
I sighed. "Kung ipagpapatuloy mo pa 'to,baka tuluyan na akong mahulog sayo." He smiled.
"Really?"
"But in the other hand, Kilala na kita. You'll be everything I wan't, You'll be perfect to my eyes. Until you get me back, and when that happens.. You'll break my heart again." He sighed.
"Hindi ba pwedeng kalimutan mo nalang ang nakaraan?"
He ask.
"No."
"Then I'll make you forget it."

When we entered the hotel, hinawakan nya ang kamay 'ko. Then smiled at me.
"I just wan't to say I love you."
"Yeah.. Yeah whatever."
He smiled at me.

Biglang may music na nag-play, tinignan 'ko ang loob ng kwarto na nirentahan ni Timothy. Roses all over the room, confetti and a dinner table. May isang bote ng wine, tablespoon set, dalawang wine glass at mga pagkain.

"Take a seat, my lady."
Umupo ako. Kinikilabutan ako sa ginagawa nya. How can he be so perfect despite of my filthy attitude?

"Kylene.. Eat the food now." He commanded. I nodded. Kinikilabutan talaga ako sa mga pinaggagagawa ng lalaking 'to. But I shall control myself. Stay away from getting myself inlove with him.. again.

"What is this that you're doing?"
I ask. He smiled at me
"Can I ask you something?"
Nagsimula na kaming kumain dalawa. Dinner date? So sweet. Lalo akong nakokonsensya sa ginawa 'ko. Great (_ _ )
"Yes. Tell me now."
"Can you give me another chance to court you?"
I gasped. How can he? Akala ko ba deal lang 'to?
"I thought we're only in a thirty-day-deal?"
"Answer me."
"No."
He gave a me a weak smile. Just to remind everyone, he is still Timothy Mojares. Sinaktan nya pa din ako kahit anong mangyari. Niloko nya pa din ako at ginago noon.
"I see, you still hate me."
"How can't I? Maisip 'ko pa lang 'yung mga ginawa mo sakin noon hindi na ako makahinga."
"Maybe I shall ask some other time. Pag medyo napahupa ko na 'yung galit mo."

Kumain kami ng tahimik. Tapos may mag dumating na waiter at nilinis 'yung kwarto.

"Goodnight Kylene."
I did not responded. Siguro nahihiya na syang tumabi sakin ngayon. Good thing, natututo na syang mahiya.

"Still,I love you."
