My Bestfriend's Girlfriend (JhoBea)

Part Thirty Eight

After that incident, I told Bea that we should be more careful. No more hookups in the car, no more midnight dates and babawasan na muna niya ang pagpunta sa condo namin.

Of course, she isn't good with the idea at first. Marami pang nangyaring discussion, minsan pa ay nilabag niya yung pinagusapan namin and still visited me without my permission.

Siyempre nag-away kami but then she eventually agreed with what I want and gave in.

"Pati ba naman ngayon, Jho? It's my championship game. I need you." She said over the phone.

She wanted to go over here sa condo kasi at sabay ko silang ihahatid ni Jaja sa venue ng game nila mamaya just like what happened during the first game.

"Hey, I know you'll do good. You don't have to be nervous." I said.

I heard her sigh. "Ok, fine. I'll just see you at the arena then."

"Bea.."

"Oh tapos Bea na lang ngayon? Pati ba naman yun.." She said in a low voice.

I chuckled. "Baby."

She didn't say anything.

"I love you." I said.

Wala pa rin akong narinig mula sakanya. I checked the call and it's still ongoing pa naman.

"Huy, wag ka na magtampo jan, love. Konting patience pa please?"

I heard her sigh again. "Oo na sige na."

"I love you. Good luck sa game mo later. Get it, champ."

"Ok." Sabi niya lang.

"Baby, please understand. Come on, focus ka sa game later ha. I'll be cheering for you."

"Out loud?"

"Lowkey. Pero alam mo naman di'ba na ikaw lang chinecheer ko. And hey, I'll be praying for you all throughout your game. Prayers are powerful kaya." Sabi ko naman.

"Oo na oo na."

"I love you, my champ." Panunuyo ko pa.

"I love you too." She said and put off the call.

Hay. I feel so sorry but this is what needs to be done. If we want to keep this, dapat wala nang makaalam pang iba bukod kay Jema. Para din naman sa amin ito eh.

"Oh bakit ka nakabusangot jan, ate?" Jaja entered my room.

I gave her a quick look before going back to typing a message for Bea.

"Wala naman. May nabasa lang ako sa twitter." Pagpapalusot ko.

"Omg. Nabasa mo rin?" She sat on my bed.

I looked at her, confused. "Ang alin?"

"Ay hindi ba iyon ang nabasa mo? Ate Bea is a hot topic on twitter." Jaja said.

"Ha? Bakit?"

Jaja sighed and get her phone on her pocket. "Well, because of the incident that happened between her and the referee last game. Hindi lang yun. Pati yung Thailand contracts niya ay issue. Some are saying na kapit lang daw kay Jia or binayaran daw ng Ateneo yung clubteams sa Thailand."

"Eh mga siraulo kaya nga nag-Thailand para kumita tapos babayaran?" Jaja added and shook her head.

She showed me her phone where hate tweets on Bea are showed.

"Weird lang din kasi nagkausap si ate Bea at yung referee after the game but there are still a lot of hate na binabato sakanya." Sabi pa ni Jaja.

I scrolled down the tweets. Grabe naman ang mga ito. How can they judge a person na sa TV lang nila napapanood?
