Like Sign Repel (OneShot:BxB)

Prom

[AN: Hey guys. It's been a long days...or should I say months since I last updated BECAUSE I LOVE YOU. But then I am here starting up a new one. Well, actually it's just a short story anyway. So yun nga gumawa ako ng kakaibang story that I've never done before. It's a new genre for me. But before you say something, I would like to clarify things up-I'm not a bi or the likes. I'm just inspired to write this one as a tribute to the escalating members of their community. So have fun ]

***
The rhythm of the woebegone music is communing my melancholic heart at this very point of my malapropos life.

***
"And now it's time for you to pick a partner and dance together in the dulcet music" The master of ceremony utter.

For some it would probably be the best moment of their lives akin to the point where you notch a regalia...but for me, it would be my greatest crestfallen.

Noon ay iniisip ko na ito ang pinakaespesyal na araw para sa amin ni Spiel. Ang araw kung saan sasayaw kami sa saliw ng malumanay at punong puno ng pag-ibig na tugtugin. Ang araw kung saan masisilayan ko ang kakisigan niya ng walang pag-aalalang susumbatan kami ng karamihan. But it all turned up into mare's nest.

"Ken, I know you are in great pain now but I guess you need to accept the fact" Ayesha aver with much concern and sympathy reflected in the orbs of her dark eyes.

She's my bestfriend. My bestfriend that I once considered my precious chum. But one day I woke up, she's now the person that I wished I never bumped upon.

"Ayesha, would you?" The man in his teenage years wearing a white tuxedo offers his hand unto her. He's very attractive with such attire together with his kempt hair. I know, I shouldn't feel this way but I cannot help myself in loving him. I cannot help but hold on to the promises we made to each other. You said you would always love me even the millennia would passed by. What just happen to that promise? Am I the only one who keep on clenching that?

"Oh sure babe" Ayesha replied and once again, she looked at me with the same eyes. Iniwas ko ang aking mga tingin upang di mahalata ang nagbabadyang luha na pilit kumawala sa maaamo kong mga mata.

Both of them walk on the dance floor. Iniwan nila akong mag-isa. Iniwan nila sa himpapawid na walang mga bagwis. Paano? Paano ako makakalipad kung ganun? Paano ako makakamove on kung ganun?

...and the instruments started to play. Everyone in the dance floor cherished every split second that their body waves accordingly. Including them. My best friend and my boyfriend ...Spiel. Oh I should correct myself for being clodpoll. Ex boyfriend I should say.

Habang tinitingnan ko silang masayang sumasayaw, pilit tinutusok ng sanlibong karayom ang aking puso. Paano? Paano ito nangyari? Noong araw ang saya naman namin ah. Bakit? Bakit ganito? At ang masaklap pa, sa best friend ko pa. Paano ko maaatim ang ganitong sitwasyon?

Habang kay tamis ng mga ngiting kanilang pinagpapalitan, heto ako't nakaupo sa bakal na silyang ito at hinihiling na sana ako na lang ang taong nakahawak sa likod ng kanyang leeg habang hawak naman ng matikas ngunit malambot niyang mga kamay ang aking beywang. Hinihiling ko na sana ako nalang ang kasayaw niya sa ilalim ng napakagandang musikang ito. Na sana ako nalang ang kapalitan niya ng matitimyas na ngiti na tila nangungusap sa isa't isa kahit hindi ibinubuka ang aming mga bibig. Na sana ako ang iniisip niya habang sumasayaw at aming binabalik-tanaw ang mga masasayang alaala na sabay naming nililikha. Hinihiling ko na sana ako na lang...ako pa rin ang laman ng kanyang puso... Ako nalang sana...

Nais kong sapakin ang aking sarili dahil sa katangahang alam ko namang masasaktan ako ngunit pinilit ko pa ring dumalo sa promenade na ito. Pinilit ko pa ring pagmasdan ang kaligayahan ng dalawa kong minahal. At sa katangahang iniisip at hinihiling ko ang mga pangyayaring alam ko namang imposible. I know it's far-fetched but why I still... Why I still love him? Why do I still love you Spiel?

Hindi na nga tuluyang maikubli ang mga luha sa aking mga mata at tuluyan na silang bumabagsak na animo'y wala ng bukas. Pinagtitinginan na rin ako ng mga tao sa loob ng hall na ito. Maging ang tugtog ay tumigil pati ang mga sumasayaw. Kabilang na ang dalawang taong dahilan ng aking pagkabiyak.

Silence covered the entire hall and all the eyes are on me. Wala na nga akong ibang magagawa kundi harapin ito. I should take the risk and bare the consequences. Dahil ito na lamang ang natitirang minuto ko para sabihin sa kanya...para ipaalala sa kanya.

I wiped my tears and walk towards them. I am now the center of attention but who cares.

Nilapitan ko si Spiel and I open my mouth "Spiel..."

I saw how his expression shifted into confusion. As if we've never met each other. As if he didn't know my entire existence.

He looked around and later pointed himself. "Me? Uhmm excuse me? Do I know you dude?"

What he reacted really twinged my heart. Remembering me not was the greatest forlornness someone could have. Hindi na niya naaalala ang mga masasayang pangyayari naming dalawa. Hindi na niya naaalala ang pangako niya sa akin. Napakasakit na makitang ang lalaking kasama mong mangarap na magkaroon ng engrandeng kasal  at habang buhay na  magkapiling ay hindi ka na maalala.

"Spiel please remember me. Please remember your promises...our promises to each other. Please bring back that memoirs. Please Spiel. I am the person you love the most. I am Ken, your forever baby...and you are my forever daddy Spiel. Please do remember those times you said you love me. Please" muli na namang bumugso ang sakit na aking nararamdaman at bumuhos ang naguunahang mga luha sa aking pisngi.

"Spiel remember? I am the person you love. You promised me a grandeur wedding. I was your first love, not my best friend Ayesha... Its me Spiel, it's me." nakita ko ang pagluha ni Ayesha habang tinitingnan ang kalunuslunos Kong sinapit sa likod ng Amnesia ni Spiel.

"Dude, sorry I don't know you. And what you are talking was really nonsense. Tsaka nakakadiri dude. I know I have amnesia but alam ko that Ayesha was my first love and I can feel it in my heart,...not a gay? Hindi ako ganun dre. I don't and I won't be in a relationship with a gay...with you. We are not compatible. Your male and so do I. Remember this, like sign always repel" at sa mga binitiwan niyang salita ay mistulang gumuho ang pasan pasan kong mundo.

I flashed a smile. I know I couldn't have him and maybe it would really a goodbye. Tumalikod ako sa kanila and walked away.

Sa ika sampung hakbang ko, I looked back and looked at him with a teary eyes. I mouthed the word na alam kong di ko na masasabi pa. ' I love you,...and I always do'  at sa mga segundong yun, I felt that I fell on the floor and everything went black.
