Martina's POV
Tama ba 'tong mga narinig ko? Operation: Find out Jac's Problem accomplished na nga ba? A–Am I his problem? Wait, I... I don't know how I should react or what to react. I... I thought, I could solve this problem. I thought.... You know, this is insane! This shouldn't be happening, this can't be.
“Friends, I think we should go—” Cara.
“No! All of you, stay!” I stated.
Naguguluhan ako, pero hindi talaga puwedeng mangyari ito. I need answers, things must be cleared.
“Make things clear to everyone who have heard what you've said,” Iris speaks what's on my mind.
I was just standing here, exchanging gazes with these Mondragons. It hurts seeing the two of them fight over this kind of bitch. Hindi bale na kasing ako ang saktan huwag lang silang magkasakitan. I hate seeing anybody or whoever I love battling over someone who doesn't deserve it, someone like me. They're making me feel like I am that important that even they're cousins — Dammit! I don't wanna ruin their oh, so fine relationship. Parang ipinagsisigawan naman nila sa mga nakakikita na ang ganda ko at napakabuti kong tao. I mean, you know what I mean! I don't deserve it.
“Babe, we should....” Lumapit si Matt sa akin pero umatras akong muli.
Siguro naaartehan na kayo sa akin, ano? Well, I can't blame you by hating me but you can't blame me neither. If you were on my shoes, you'll understand. I heard it, I have heard all of it. Jac, he is in love with me. Still. Then, Matthew and all the things he have mentioned, what are those? A–Anong....
“Martina, I am sorry.” Jac steps but just fall beside his cousin as I eye him full of confusion.
“What I need is an explanation,” I said vigorously.
I shut my eyes as I try calming myself. Nag-usap na sila tungkol sa bagay na iyon? I really don't understand what they were talking about. I open my eyes to face the two of them again and I really hope that this would end.
“Nag-usap kayo? Anong pinag-usapan niyo? What are you fucking talking about? Matt, Jacob, what?” mariing tanong ko sa mga ito.
I feel like exploding in madness already or because of whatever my emotions says as I wait for their answers. Different kinds of emotions are hitting me and all I want to happen to me now is to disappear in a blink of an eye. I want to escape, but I have to settle this. I'm mad and that won't change until I understand and hear them out.
“Mumsh, I think….” Iris held my hand but I ignored her.
“Diane, what is this?” I asked.
“Ayokong magsalita, mumsh,” she replied with a vague smile.
She's smiling but I don't know what her expression truly says. One thing is for sure, she's confuse more than I am.
“Jac, Matt, why don't you speak now? Ayan na ang pinag-aawayan niyo oh,” she told them before walking out of the room.
Sinundan naman siya ni Chezca. Parang gusto ko na nga lang din sumunod sa kanila pero kailangan ko pa ng kasagutan mula sa mga tao rito. I really hate what's happening.
“Martina, you are my friend….”
Friend.
“Exactly, Jac! So, what is this all about? I thought… I thought we were fine.”
Oh, please, somebody, tell my tears not to fall. I can't cry, I can't put too much stress to myself.
“It's still you, Martina. I thought so too that I am fine being just a friend of yours but it's not,” he said with a sullen face.
