She's My Ex-Girlfriend (Revising)

SMEG 8: What is Need to be Done is to be Done

Ariane's POV

I wish he'll be. I wish he already changed. I don't want to think that he's just challenged about me. I hope he'll not make me as a rebound from his past.

I wish he won't do what he did to his ex and my ex did to me. Because I'm tired of hurting.

"But you still have feelings for him, don't you?"

I'm trying to fix myself from being broken because of my past. But no matter how hard I am trying to, I can't. Maybe, I really don't want to.

It's painful to admit but I know I'm still into him. I still love him. How can I unlove that guy if in every single thing I can remember him?

He's not worth it. He's not worth the tears. He doesn't deserve me.

That's the thing I wanted to keep in my mind but I don't. It's really hard to move on. It's not that easy to fall out of love.

And of course, he's my first love.

If I can teach my heart to like Ryan rather than Kevin, I will. But I can't.

"Yes, I do. But don't worry, Ryan. Time will come there's nothing left for him."

He nodded. "By the way, what's his name? I want to know his name."

"Kevin. Kevin Corpuz."

He smirked. "Kevin Corpuz. Okay, Ariane." I just smiled.

Ryan's POV

After 2736749 years dumating na rin sina Sean. They said sorry for being late, umattend pa daw kasi sila ng klase.

Chael hugged me. "I missed you Ryan. Ajujuju." And he faked crying like a baby. Oh, d4mn.

We laughed including Ariane. I hugged him back, trying to ride on his joke. "I missed you too, baby boy." And we all laughed harder.

"Tumigil nga kayong dalawa. Nakakapangilabot mga pinaggagagawa niyo, e." He annoyingly said. We all laughed at him.

Inasar ko siya. "Fafa Sean! I missed you, oh my gosh." And Chael did the same. Patuloy pa rin kami sa tawanan. Tumawa na din si Sean at nakisakay sa kalokohan namin.

"Guys, hindi nyo ata napansin, this gorgeous girl with me."

They both looked at Ariane. Si Ariane naman, nahiya. Ang cute niya.

"Hi Ariane." My friends greeted her and they led their hands to Ariane.

"I'm Sean."

"And I'm Michael."

Ariane took their hands one by one and gave them a friendly smile. "Hi. Nice meeting you both."

Sean's POV

"Hi. Nice meeting you both."

"Ganda, dre." Chael whispered.

I have to admit. Yeah. She's really beautiful and gorgeous. I wonder Ryan would fall for her. And, I think, she's really nice, huh. Bakit siya isasama ni Ryan if not?

I just ignore Chael's whisper.

"Tara na guys. Nagtatagal na tayo dito," aya ko sa kanila.

"Tara let's!"

AJ's POV

I'm on my way to Kaye's. And traffic na naman, as usual. Tsk.

After few minutes, I arrived. I'll bring her to SU. Tsk. SU's really far from St. Venice. Bakit kaya doon siya pumasok? Ang alam ko sa De La Serna naman pumasok sina Tita. At least, malapit lapit 'yon sa St. Venice.

"Hey," bati niya sa akin at hinalikan ako sa pisngi.

"Let's go, babe," aya niya sa akin. Naglakad na rin siya papunta sa kotse ko.

But before she could open the door, I asked her, "Kaye, bakit sa Stanford ka pumasok? Hindi ba sa De La Serna naman pumasok sina Tita? Ano meron doon? Bat hindi ka makaalis doon?"

She shrugged. "Hayaan mo na 'yun, babe. I'm just really sorry for not leaving the school for St. Venice. Let's go."

I wanted to be convinced with her answer but I can't. It's just not really convincing. I want to know why.

For Pete's sake! Kung wala namang importante para sa kanya tungkol sa Stanford, bat hindi niya magawang lumipat sa St. Venice? Or kahit sa De La Serna man lang? Para sa akin?

Why is it so hard for her? I know there's a reason behind it. Is it because of her ex-boyfriend? Ano? Naguguluhan ako!

"No, Kaye. I won't accept your answer. Bakit hindi ka makaalis sa Stanford? Is it because of your fvcking ex-boyfriend, huh? Is it? E kung dahil sa kanya, bakit di ka pa umalis? 2 taon na tayo pero wala akong kaalam alam tungkol sa past love life mo! Bakit hindi ka nalang lumipat sa De La Serna or sa St. Venice?"

She didn't say anything but she's already crying.Tumingala ako dahil nagpipigil akong umiyak. Hindi ko gustong maging mahina ngayon.

"Is it really that hard for you? Bakit hindi di mo magawa para sa akin? At alam mo ang mas masakit? 'Yung ang past mo ang dahilan kung bakit di ka makapagsakripisyo man lang para sa akin! Umuwi ako ng Pilipinas dahil gusto kong makasama kita. Pero 'yung paglipat lang ng school di mo magawa? Dahil ano? Dahil ng p*tang*na mong ex-boyfriend?!"

Hindi ko na napigilan at napaiyak na ako. She tried to hugged me pero nagpumiglas ako. "You know what? I don't really feel you love me! Mahal mo ba talaga ako, Kaye?!"

"Of course, I do! I love you, AJ!"

"Really? But you didn't love me enough, Kaye! Kaya kong gawin lahat para sa'yo pero ikaw, 'yon nalang ang hinihiling ko noon pa man sa'yo pero di mo magawa. Ipinangako ko sa sarili ko na hindi na ako babalik ng Pilipinas dahil maaalala ko lang ang masakit na nakaraan, pero nang dahil sa'yo. Nang dahil sa p*t*ng*nang pagmamahal ko sa'yo, ginawa ko!"

Pinunasan ko ang luha ko. "This would be the last time I'm seeing you and I will be with you."

Napakunot ang noo niya, "What do you mean, AJ?"

Hindi ako sumagot at tumalikod nalang ako. I guess she already know the answer to her question.

She cried harder, she's like a pent-up volcano. "No, d-don't do this to me, AJ. We both love each other! D-dalawang taon tayo tapos itatapon lang natin dahil ng Stanford? No, AJ, please..."

Uminit lalo ang dugo ko sa sinabi niya. Itatapon dahil lang ng Stanford? 'Wag niya ako lalong ginagalit.

"What's need to be done is to be done. Everything's over between us. We're over. So please, I badly don't wanna see you again."
