"Okay na ba 'yan?" mahinang tanong niya. Tumango ako.
We had to make a Tiktok together to debunk that we're not on good terms. It was almost real because he was good in the Tiktok that we made. Para naming niloloko ang mga fans pero ito ang sinabi ng management and we had to follow.
"Tayo naman," ani Yours.
Okay na sila, okay na rin kami, we had to. He went back but he became quiet. He did what Coach said. He did not bug me anymore, he did not make any attempts. We're casual.
"Pagod na ako, Yours. Pwede na magpahinga?" mahinang tanong niya.
Nagulat si Yours doon at pumayag din. "Okay," sagot ni Yours.
Dumating na si Seryn at binati kami. It's been three days since she arrived here. She kept visiting us, visiting Sev every night. Nagi-stay sila sa kwarto ni Sev until Sev will fall asleep at aalis na rin si Seryn pagkatapos. I don't know what they're doing but Seryn just said he misses Sevyn but three days in a row, it's like a mandatory and an obligation.
"Hi Nova," kumaway siya sa akin. Ngumiti na lang ako.
Today is the start of the playoffs. Tapos na rin ang practice namin pero si Sev at may dalang bag at aalis silang dalawa sa bootcamp.
"Saan kayo?" tanong ni War.
"Nandito si Mama at Papa, nag-rent kami ng bahay dito. Doon muna matutulog si Kuya, miss na namin eh," nakangiting sagot ni Seryn. I felt like it was a fake smile. I kept seeing that smile and it wasn't genuine.
Si Seryn na ang nagbitbit ng bag ni Sev. Nasa likod lang si Sev at hinihintay si Seryn.
"Wag niyo ako i-miss agad ha! Mga three days bago ko ibalik si brother!" Nakangiting sabi niya at nagpaalam na.
Yumuko na lang si Sev at nagpahila na kay Seryn. Sinundan ko sila at nasa labas sila at naghihintay ng Taxi.
"I'll book you a cab guys," sabi ko sa kanila. Pareho silang napatingin sa akin. Seryn just smiled and shook his head.
"Nakapag-book na po kami. Waiting na lang po," ngiting sabi niya.
I am starting to hate her smile. It's fake. It's like she's just acting.
Hinawakan niya ang kamay ni Sev at nakitang pinisil 'yon. Dumating na ang Taxi at kumaway na rin si Seryn sa amin. Sev waved too and smiled. It was the same smile with Seryn. I hate it.
"Nakakainggit rin ang pamilya ni 'ter, no? Buo tapos mahal na mahal siya," Yours said when I went back inside. The atmosphere went quiet. War is looking at the blank space, thinking.
"Bakit nag-rent pa ang pamilya niya dito? Parang matagal silang magi-stay dito?" tanong ni War.
"Baka oo? Susuportahan ang lahat ng game. Malak ang tiyansa nating makapag-Finals. Mukhang dadalhin tayo doon ni Hunter." Yours laughed and shook his head.
I looked at Knight and he's just quiet, looking at the blank space.
We dispersed and we went to our rooms. Sev's room is a bit open so I went to close his door but my feet stepped in his room.
His room was clean and the arrangement changed. I didn't almost recognized it. Parang babae ang nakatira sa kwarto. Maybe Seryn cleaned her room? Pero hindi naman makalat sa kwarto si Sev so I don't understand.
Lumabas na rin ako doon at pumunta sa kwarto ko. I visited our video that I posted in my account. There were a lot of comments saying that they felt relieved that we're together again but some are saying that we were doing it all for the sake of acting.
