Chapter 70: Madness, Pain, Hormones

Rina's POV

Day 3 

          "I like you too, Rina."

          "I love you, Rina. Please come back to me."

          These words keep on running and running in my mind na parang sirang plaka lang na walang sawang nagrereplay.

          I never expected that. The JD I used to know will never say those word. Especially the word "please" and the "come back". That's two tabooed words combined.

          Someone like him will never beg a girl to be with him. Kayang-kaya niyang kumuha ng babae kahit na hindi siya magsalita. Just the mere fact that he's JD Villafuerte means magnet to girls, especially those desperate ones.

          It seems like he dropped an unbelievable bomb in front of me doon sa sinabi niya.

          After namin kumain, hindi na siya ulit nagsalita at binalik ako sa school.

          He asked me kung saan na daw ako tumitira ngayon and I unconsciously spill where I lived for the meantime.

          And again, I never expected him to say another tabooed words.

          "I'm glad that you seem safe."

          Tapos noon umalis na siya nang walang lingon-lingon.

          I snapped out of it after a minute or two staring on the nowhere horizon. Ilang beses kong kinurot at sinampal-sampal ang pisngi ko para lang bumalik yung utak ko sa kasalukuyan.

          Hindi ko alam kung naka-drugs ba si JD kaya niya nasabi ang mga bagay na iyon o nalasing siya doon sa wine na ininom niya.

          But my heart skips a beat when he said those words. Like I fall in love with the same wrong person over and over again.

          'NO! Rina, no! Pwede ba?! Snap out of it! Hindi tama 'yang nararamdaman mo! Tumigil ka nga! Nakalimutan mo na ba ang ginawa sa'yo ng tao na iyon?!'

          I shake my head sa sinabi ng boses sa utak ko.

          Tama. I should stop this crazy hallucinations. My heart is not skipping a beat doon sa sinabi ni JD.

          I'm not falling for him again.

          Never.

          I shouldn't...or I'll end up getting hurt again.

JD's POV

            "Hi!"

          I was expecting that I will see her knocking in my door again one day.

          Literally speaking, I see her face again. But not actually her. Not Rina.

          "What do you want?"

          Gusto kong magalit sa tao na 'to ngayon. Kung di lang siya bumalik at nagpakita sa akin, okay sana ang lahat. I won't end up having this kind of mess with Rina.

          "May I come in?"

          Her strong perfume almost kills my nostrils. It's not the same sweet smell Rina possessed.
