For His Entertainment

Chapter Twenty-five

Why do I feel miserable?

Bakit parang ang unfair naman, bakit kailangan ako pa 'yung ganito ang nararamdaman? Ako na nga ang naagrabyado, ako pa ang umiiyak.

Nanghihinayang ako. Nasasaktan. Yet I can't bring myself to just get out there and believe him. Today is Day 4 without Spencer- or at least trying to avoid him.

"Hindi ka ba mag-eenroll?" Kim asked when I finally answered the phone after 8 missed calls. Napakapersistent din talaga ng babaeng 'to.

"Ugh, ngayon na ba 'yun?"

"You sound like shit, Ally. Keep yourself together!" Panenermon niya. "I'll be there in an hour, you better be ready kundi talagang kakaladkarin kita palabas tulad ng pagkaladkad ni Angel Locsin kay Mocha Uson!"

"What?" Umirap ako.

"Bumangon ka na d'yan! Paalis na ako ng bahay. Napakapabebe mo. Kailangan pa sunduin." She said before hanging up, wala man lang goodbye.

I sighed and went to the bathroom. Mabilis lang akong nagshower. Nagtagal ako sa pagpili ng damit na halos nilabas ko na yung buong closet ko, but I ended up just wearing the dress I bought the other day. I'm not in the mood to pair up at least two pieces of clothing.

After I applied my make-up, sakto namang may kumatok ng malakas sa pinto ko. I immediately opened it and found Kim.

"Good!" She eyed me from head to toe. "Akala ko kailangan pa talaga kita kaladkarin."

Umiling ako and went back to fix my hair.

We ate breakfast first then we went along to school.

"Have you talked to Chelssy yet?" She looked at me from the passenger seat. "O sineseryoso mo talaga ang pagmumukmok mo at wala kang kinakausap?"

I groaned and focused on driving.

"You're crazy! Mas malala ka pa yata kay Chelssy. Kung makapagmukmok ka, akala mo naman naging kayo." Natatawa niyang sabi.

"Hindi mo alam pinagdaanan ko sa gagong 'yun 'no. Mas malala pa sa pinagdadaanan ni Chelssy." I turned my car to find a parking spot. "Isa pa, hindi ko rin alam ang sasabihin sa kanila."

"Fine, whatever, pero mukha naman siyang seryoso." She finally said as we pulled over.

"Wow, close kayo agad para malaman mong seryoso siya?" I removed my seat belt. 

She stopped for a while. "Well, wala pa naman akong nakikita na sinuyo niya nang ganito."

I dismissed the idea. Nilalason din ng babaeng 'to ang utak ko, eh.

We proceed on the enrollment for the second semester. I feel tired the whole time. Puro pahinga lang naman ako sa bahay pero pakiramdam ko pagod na pagod ako.

"Girls!"

We turned to see Lyka and Irene approaching us.

"My God, ang tagal nating hindi nagkita-kita. We haven't heard from you since the issue with Theo." Ngumuso si Lyka. "What's happening?"

Kim just shrugged.

"Si Chelssy?" I asked, because honestly, I still am worried about her.

"Ayun, broken." Irene scoffed. "Seriously, hindi naman sila nagtagal, pero parang hindi na uusad buhay niya."

Yeah, right. What more pa 'ko na hindi naman talaga naging kami.

"We talked to Theo a while ago. Hindi na raw siya nanliligaw sa'yo?"

I shook my head.

Kim gave them a pat to signal them to shut the fuck up, and they did, finally. But not before I saw Theo approaching us.
