She left me, again.

Naiwan ako ritong naka-yuko habang naka-upo rito sa sofa na inuupuan niya kanina.

Alam ko it's my fault kung bakit nagkaka-ganito kami ni athena. Ako naman talaga yung mayroong kasalanan kung bakit kami nagkaka-ganito.

Because of this, nasira ang pagkakaibigan namin ng ilang taon. Sinira ko ito dahil lang sa kagaguhan ko.

Naging manhid ko. Sobrang manhid ko para di ko mapansin ang mga efforts na ginawa ni athena dati para lang ikakasaya ko.

" oh, Ricci! Where is athena? " nagulat naman ako nang biglang magsalita si george.

" i don't know. Lumabas eh may pinuntahan ata " nagdadalawang isip ko na sagot.

" ah okay okay, kumain ka na ba, Ricci? Join us here oh " pang-aaya ni george sa akin.

" no, I'm already full. " i answered na may mapait ng ngiti na naka-plaster sa aking mukha.

" okay, sinabi mo eh " George said while chewing his food.

Makalipas ng ilang oras na paghihintay rito sa pagbalik ni athena ay nabigo ako. Hindi na siya muling bumalik rito sa board room.

Napag-desisyunan ko na umalis na. Wala na rin naman akong gagawin rito.

" uhm, excuse me, george? " tugon ko nang ako ay tumayo at naglakad papalapit sa kinaroroonan nina george.

Kaagad naman akong nilingon nito, at sabay sabing " yes? "

" I'll go na may pupuntahan pa kasi ako "

" di ka ba kakain? Niramihan pa namin itong order for you "

" no, thank you. I'm already full " naka-ngiting wika ko kay george at tumango naman ito.

" I'll text you nalang kung may biglaang meetings or what. "

" okay "

Kaagad naman akong lumabas ng boarding room. Hindi na ako nag atubiling mag elevator because it takes time pa.

Nang makarating ako ng parking lot ay kaagad ko naman hinanap kung saan naka park ang aking sasakyan.

To be honest, wala naman akong plans for this day.

To be honest, Hindi ko alam na si athena pala ang designer ng fashion show na nag invite sa akin to be one of their model for their event.

I went directly sa athlete's den to find out kung kamusta na ba ang gym.

Nang makarating ako sa athlete's den ay nadatnan ko na nagwowork out ang mga younger brothers ko even riley.

Time flies so fast. Yung tipong di mo namamalayan na unti-unti nang nagbabago ang lahat. But everything happened and changed for a reason. May mga dahilan kaya yung ibang bagay ay nagbago na ng tuluyan.

Napatigil ako sa aking pagmumuni-muni ng makaramdam ako ng isang tapik sa aking kaliwang balikat.

It's dad.

" are you okay, sahia? " my dad asked

" y-yes naman po. "

" oh, it's good to hear. I thought that you're not okay " sambit ni dad at pagkatapos ay naglakad naman ito papabalik sa kinaroroonan ng aking nga kapatid.

I went straight to the locker room to change my clothes.

Habang inaayos ko ang aking mga gamit ay napatigil naman ako ng biglang sumagi sa aking isip ang sinabi ni dad kanina sa akin.

" are you okay, sahia? "

" oh, it's good to hear. I thought that you're not okay "

Okay lang ba talaga ako? Or I'm just lying again?

Shit ricci! Umayos ka nga. Okay ka. Okay na okay ka.

Pero ramdam ko talaga na hindi eh. What the fuck ricci? You're one hundred percent okay. Okay?

Am i too in denial on what i really feel?
