unique's point of view.
Magdalena is officially my girlfriend.
What a big fuck up.
Okay, i had fantasies of her stripping down her clothes in front of me, but you know. It's in the past. Feelings are just like people, they change too.
Not everything starts right and ends right. In fact, we were never right. We're just kids who are always wrong but thinks they're right.
The movie was finished an i am satisfied. I am so glad that the money we thought we wasted actually paid off!
Nakaakbay ako kay Magda at sabay kaming lumabas ng sine, "Uy, diba si 'Ter yun?" Turo niya doon sa lalaking nasa bilihan ng damit kasama si... Zild.
I'm not saying they are boyfriends but they are boyfriends.
Great fucking job.
He's laughing so hard as if it was the end of the world. His mouth was wide open na titipong papasukan na ng langaw yung bibig niya.
"Ah, ano kaya ginagawa niya dito?" Sabi ko, "siguro bumili ng damit, uy! si Zild rin pala ulit kasama niya! Best friends talaga sila 'no, Unique?"
"Hahaha, best friends talaga."
"More than friends sila!" At bigla akong nagulat ng may yumakap sa braso ko at bumulong.
It's her again.
"Unique? Anong nanyari sayo?" Pagkaway ni Magda sa mukha ko. "Ba't ka gulat?" Sunod na tanong niya.
"W-wala naman! Tara kain tayo!"
"Kala ko magkakape pa tayo?"
"A-ah, okay-- saglit."
Lalo siyang kumapit sakin nung umuutal na ako na sumagot kay Magda. Kung kailan naman oh.
Kung kailan kailangan ko ng madamayan, wala siya. Pero kung kailan may kasama ako o talagang gulong gulo ako, dadating siya para lalo akong paguluhin.
"Wag ka magalala, Unique! Makukuha't makukuha mo rin si Blaster! Ingat ka kasama yung taong hindi mo naman mahal!"
"See you mamayang gabi!" At nawala siya bigla.
Tangina.

I dialled Blaster's phone number, a voice very familiar answered the phone.
"Hello?"
It was Blaster.
"Uhm, it's Unique."
"Be very fast ha, Dad and Mom's coming home. Okay, bakit ka napatawag?"
"Come over?"
"No."
"Oh- okay. I understand, goodb--"
"No! How about the place went to? the park! I mean it's been like.. a month since we haven't seen each other."
"Yeah, how about at midnight?"
"Uhm, i'll try my best to escape from Dad and Mom. I'll really try my best."
"See you later night."
"See you."
"Goodbye."
"Bye." And he ended the call, my hands shaking as i put down my phone.
"Fuck."
"Kumusta naman?" Tanong niya na parang kabute na bigla biglang sumusulpot.
"Fucking okay! Nice! The day is fine!"
"Siguro kasi tinawagan mo si Blaster 'no? Kawawa naman si Magda, getting cheated on with a boy." She said with a pitiful tone.
Silence covered the whole atmosphere and my curved up lips turned into a frown.
"Okay, you go get the man of your dreams. Ingat!"
She disappeared at the speed of sound.
I exited my house and went to the park and while i was walking, I thought of things. Like am I cheating on Magda?
Yes, i am.
My fault for asking her to be my girlfriend.
I glance at my wristwatch, the time says 11:12 P.M. and it's pretty fast.
The walk to the park takes about 16 minutes at minsan, kung tinatamad ako; mga 20 minutes siguro.
Kumusta na kaya si Magda ngayon?
Alam ba niya pinaggagagawa ko sa buhay ko?
Siyempre hindi, kasi halos pagkatao kong totoo ay hindi ko mapakita sa kanya. Nakakabobo lang.
Girlfriend ko siya pero parang minadali ko agad?
Kasalanan ko naman.
Halatang gusto niya ako, pero halata bang hindi ko siya gusto?
Sobra. sabi nung alter ego ko.
Medyo nakakatawa lang.
Nang makarating ako sa parke, nakita ko si Blaster na kumakaway sa akin. Kumaway din ako pabalik at ngumiti.
He smiled back.
Umupo ako sa tabi niya at agad kong naramdaman ang malamig na damo.
It was windy and i felt like always wearing this jacket actually paid off na kahit mainit suot ko pa rin.
"Kumusta?" Tanong niya habang nakatingin sa taas, admiring the stars-- i assume.
"Okay lang."
"Kayo na yata nung Magdalena noh?" Sabi niya na mukhang masaya.
"Paano mo nalaman?"
"Nakita ko kayo sa sine na magkahawak kamay, tapos umakbay ka na sa kanya."
"Stalker ka?"
"Hindi, nagkataon lang."
I stood up, putting my index finger on his forehead, moving it down to his lips.
"What are you doing?" he asks, confused of what i'm doing.
"I miss the taste of your skin."
