Volleyball

2 Years Before Everything

August 15, 2015

"Aira! Halika na! May training pa tayo," sinulyapan ko ang aking relo at napagtanto kong 3:20 pm na pala.

"Mamaya pang 4 o'clock yung training 'di ba? Sige, una ka na, may gagawin pa kasi ako. Alam mo na, girlfriend duties," sagot kong may matamis na ngiti kay Alyana, ang team captain ng women's volleyball team.

Since pinalabas kami ng maaga ng professor namin, may 40 minutes pa ako bago magtraining. 3:30 pa kasi 'yong totoong dismissal namin.

Titingnan ko kasi kung pinalabas na ng professor 'yong klase ng boyfriend ko. Hindi pa kasi siya nagtetext pero 3:00 naman ang labas niya.

Media kasi ang course niya habang ako naman ay Psychology at 3:00 ang dismissal nila kaya by this time, nagtetext na siya sa akin na lumabas na sila.

Syempre as a girlfriend, I would worry kung hindi ko alam ang mga whereabouts niya.

So I started to walk going to my boyfriend's block. I decided to text him while walking.

To: My Boyfie💖💕

              Babe, nasan ka? Pinalabas na ba kayo ng prof? Text me back kung nadismiss na kayo. Iloveyousomuchbaby💕

Sa totoo lang, medyo nagiging cold na kasi si Karl, my boyfriend, these past few days.

It's not that I don't trust him, but his actions make me feel uneasy.

'Yong parang, lagi siyang may excuse para maka-iwas sa 'kin.

I mean, I'm a pretty smart girl kaya I notice those little details that people don't give time to look at it.

Kung akala niya na hindi ko 'yon mapapansin, pwes, mali siya.

Halos lahat ng galaw niya, nababasa ko. That's why I took Psycology as my course.

I could always sense na may tinatago siya sa 'kin kasi minsan tinatago niya ang phone niya as if may ayaw siyang malaman ko.

Dati, sobrang sweet niya.

That was a long time ago.

A long, long time ago.

He used to buy me chocolates everyday.

He used to call me several times just to check if I'm okay.

He used to text or call me until we felt sleepy.

And most of all, he used to always kiss me on the forehead if we part ways, but now, he doesn't even take a chance to glance at me.

I was so close to his block when I heard kissing sounds from the back.

Umiral naman ang curiosity ko kaya tiningnan ko kung ano 'yon.

Holy mother of-

"Fvck." I whispered.

Fvcking shit.

Well, congratulations to me. Why? It looks like my prediction is correct.
