Months have passed since that very unfaithful night. Ilang months na rin ako nagtatago sa kanya. Hindi na ko sumasabay sa kanya every morning. Tuwing tatawag siya, sandali lang ako makipagusap. Pag pupunta naman siya sa house wala na ko magagawa kundi entertain siya. Alangan naman ipagtabuyan ko ung tao. Eskandalo! Teka, bitter ba? Haha. Hindi naman!

So after months of pag-iwas I finally decided to give our friendship another try. Napagod na din kasi ako kakatago. And besides, naubusan na ko ng alibis and excuses. Hehehe. kaya balik sa dati ang drama naming dalawa ngayon. As usual napansin ‘toh ng barkada at nakiusosyo na naman sila.

“Kayo na ba ulit?” tanong nila.

“Hindi.” I simply answered.

“Eh baket ano…”

“We’re just friends. Balik sa dati.” I said cutting off their sentence.

“Bahala ka.” yun na lang nasabi nila.

Friday, movie night namin. Syempre excited ako kasi marathon ngayon ng mga scary flicks like The Ring Series, The Grudge and all the likes. Ang venue namin ngayon is sa house nila, may bisita kasi si mommy sa house that night.

When I got to their house, I saw him in the entertainment room, nag-aayos.

“Aba! Himala! Nagaayos ka ha? Bakit dito tayo? Hindi ka na naman nakapaglinis ng room mo noh?” sabi ko na medyo nangaasar pa, habang tinutulungan ko siyang mag-ayos.

“Ano ka?! Malinis kaya room ko. Nasira kasi VCR ko sa room kaya dito tayo ngayon. Tsaka…” hindi na niya natapos yung sasabihin niya kasi biglang may dumating na girl na may dalang chips and dips. Impossibleng bagong maid kasi napakasexy naman ng suot nya to be a maid’s uniform.

“Hi! I’m Twinx. Lagi ka sa akin kwento ng best friend mo!” sabi nung girl. Eh di napilitan na lang ako mag smile. Aba naman!! Sino ba ‘tong bruhang to na feeling close agad! >_<

[A/N: Twinx, @multimedia]

“I’'ll just get some more chips.” sabi ni Twinx. Wow! Hanep sa pangalan! Twinx! Ano ka chocolate? -___-

When "chocolate” left, I looked at pare na nakatakas ang kilay at alam na niya kung ano ibig ko sabihin.

“Pare,” sabi niya, sabay akbay sakin. “Alam ko hindi ko nasabi sayo na pupunta siya kasi I was not sure kung okay lang sayo kaya sinama ko na lang siya. Gusto ko kasi meron munang approval ng best friend ko bago ko siya… you know.” he continued, as he playfully played with my hair.

“Fine! Pero remember, kaya tayo nagkaroon ng movie night, for us to spend more time together. Just the two of us. Diba?! Sacred night nating dalawa 'to eh.” sabi ko in a tone na nagtatampo na nagpapacute.

Pero he just looked at me with pleading eyes, saying, “please…” so wala na ko nagawa.

“Fine! One chance lang! I’ll stay pero I don’t want this to happen again. Okay?!” I said.

He just hugged me and gave me a peck on the cheek. “Thanks pare, you’re the best!” sabi niya.

Hindi na ko nakapagsalita kasi biglang umeksena ung twinx. Kusa na ko lumayo after that. All throughout the marathon, tahimik lang ako unlike pag kaming dalawa lang, pagtatawanan pa naming dalawa yung mga nangyayari kahit na drama. Kahit na he’d come up to me and say something funny about the movie, I’ll just smile and not discuss things any further.

Sobrang ilang na nga ako sa situation eh, tapos eto pa ‘tong twinx na umeeksena. Ano kami? Close? Please lang noh. She tried approaching me nga eh and make small talks. I just smiled and tried to cut all her little chitchats short. Tapos grabe pa siya makadikit kay pare! Grabe!! Hindi ko na siya natake! Hindi kinaya ng powers ko. >.<

So I texted Sheryn. After a few minutes lang, dumating na si Sheryn. I bid the two goodbye and headed for the door na when he got hold of my hand.

“Alis ka na agad?” he asked, mukhang worried nga siya about me eh, which kinda made me feel good.

“Yah, punta ako kila Ashley. Emergency eh. May nasira sa thesis namin, kaya we have to start all over again.” that was my excuse. I know it was lame but I can’t think of any other excuse eh. Buti na lang nakiride na din si Sheryn.
