ZACH
I’m on my way to the school entrance – guard house. May kailangan daw kasi akong pirmahan for the equipment na ipinasok sa audi---
“I didn’t know that you’re such---“
“Just shut up.”
May napansin akong dalawang tao sa second kiosk – maybe a couple doing their thing.
Hindi ko na sana papansinin co’z ayoko namang maging KJ sa students pag walang teachers, but---
“You want this.”
“Fourth ano ba.”
Lumapit ako para masigurado...
And hell.
It’s Fourth...
With Greg’s date Francine.
They’re making out like whores.
Bigla kong naalala si Joey.
Fourth, you’re an as shole
Nandilim yung paningin ko.
I clench my fist and it’s shaking because of anger.
“Fourth.” I called, pagharap na pagharap niya. Agad ko siyang sinuntok sa mukha.
Narinig kong sumigaw si Fran – pero ewan, wala na akong paki.
“Zach...” Fourth said with disbelief.
“Ga go ka pala talaga eh no?” Inangat ko siya at sinuntok ulit. “Hindi ka na talaga magbabago ano?!” I glared.
“Zach, she seduced me!” He protested. “She--- she---”
“And you fu cking as shole! Nagpadala ka naman!” Sabay suntok ulit sa kanya.
Nasa sahig lang si Fourth – hindi ko alam kung bakit hindi siya tumatayo o lumalaban. Ang alam ko, saming apat – siya ang pinaka magaling sa away.
“So all along, niloloko mo lang din pala si Joey?! You told me you were serious about her!---” Sabay hatak sa kanya at tulak sa may column ng kiosk. “Ako naman ‘tong si tanga naniwala sayo?! Ha! Sasaktan at paglalaruan mo lang din pala siya!” And pushed him again.
“What the heck Fourth?! I trusted you! Sabi mo iingatan mo si Joey---”
“Why the hell are you acting like this?!” Sabi niya sabay tayo. “You’re over reacting pare. This? It’s normal for me and you knew that.” He said with his irritating angst. “What’s with the sudden burst?!”
“I don’t fu cking care, as shole!”
“Ha! You’re acting really strange...” He stopped. “So... you like Joey!---” He’s about to punch me back--- Pero pinigilan ko yung fist niya.
“And so what? It has nothing to do with you idiot!” Sabi ko sabay tulak sa kanya ng malakas.
“You... you like Joey?” Fourth asked with shock all over his face.
“It’s not just about Joey...” I said in defense – sh it. Ano bang sinabi ko? “Alam mo namang nililigawan ni Greg si Fran eh!”
