Diecisiete - Thunderstorms

3 weeks, that's what we had together.

It was painfully amazing knowing that we owned the world with that span of time.

But just like any imperfect story, everything shattered in front of our eyes.

***

[GAB'S POV]

Isang buwan ko na ring hindi nakikita si Dani.

Everything went downward spiral after we ran away...

Alam ko na may consequences ang ginawa namin but I didn't know it could get this worse.

Mark: Hey...

Ang kapatid ko nalang talaga ang meron ako ngayon...

Gab: Oh?

Mark: You don't look so good...

Hindi kasi ako makatulog at makakain ng maayos ng walang balita tungkol sa kanya... Hindi naging maayos ang pag-alis ni Dani.

Mark: You should get some sleep...

Gab: Di naman ako inaantok...

Mark: Kailangan mong magpahinga... it's been weeks since I last saw you in your room...

Gab: Sus... okay lang...

Mark: Okay then...

Ilang araw na din kasi akong naka tunga-nga dito sa pool area.

Wala lang... di ko alam kung bakit trip ko dito...

Mark: You can use my phone if you want to call her...

Gab: Wag na... alam ko namang wala yung phone ngayon...

Mark: Then go to her house...

Gab: Alam mo namang banned ako dun diba?

Mark: Well, what you guys did was horrendous! I wouldn't blame her parents...

Gab: I know...

Mark: Alam mo naman pala bakit mo ginawa?

Gab: Mahal ko siya eh...

Mark: That doesn't justify anything...

Gab: Alam ko... alam ko naman talaga sa simula pa na mali yun...

Mark: You could've acted as the mature one...

Gab: Hay nako... wag na nga nating pag usapan yung mga bagay na hindi na natin mababago...

Mark: How come it's easy for you to say that?

Gab: Ewan...

Mark: Muntik ka na kasuhan ng kidnapping for fucks sake!

Mutik pa akong gawing criminal ng parents ni Dani... mali ba talagang mahalin ko ang anak nila? Ano ba talagang kulang sa'kin? Ganoon ba ako ka walang kwentang tao?!

...

Gab: Hindi naman natuloy eh...

Mark: Still! Ikaw kaya ang mag su-suffer...

Gab: It's not like I'm not suffering right now anyway...

Mark: Ughhh... whatever... you guys are complicated...

Gab: Alam ko...

Mark: Dami mong alam, wala ka namang na so-solve!

Gab: Edi sorry na ha? Sadista ang author ng buhay ko eh!
