One shot story

Faith

“Faith”

“Ivannnnnn..”Napangiti ako ng sumampa si faith sa likuran ko.

“Yo.”I started walking again not minding the other students watching us.

“Ang sarap talaga asarin ng fangirls mo.”She laughed before kissing my cheeks, napahinto ako sa gulat.

“What? Don't tell me hindi ka nasanay sakin? Ivan I've been kissing your cheeks since elementary days natin.”Huminga ako ng malalim bago tumawa.

“Nagulat lang ako sa baho ng laway mo—ouch!”She was hitting my back.

We're always like this, halos hindi kamj mapaghiwalay ni faith, natutulog sya sa bahay namin katabi ko at ganon din ako sa kanila.

Walang malisya... But I woke up one day na iba na ang nararamdaman ko sa kanya.

When she smiles, I can feel my heart racing, when she kisses me, my world would stop spinning and all I can see is her.

All I can see is faith.

And I don't like what I'm feeling, ayaw ko na iwasan nya ako dahil dito.

“Bro are you really serious about ignoring and running away from faith?”I sighed.

“Sinasaktan mo lang sarili mo bro pati kay faith.”

“She's here again.”Mabilis na nagpunta ako sa kabilang room at kunwari'y nilalambing yung isa naming ka klase.

“Ivan ano ba! Iniiwasan mo ba ako!? I'm pissed!”I slid my hand on my pocket before wrapping the other on angel's waist.

“Faith, hindi naman always na ikaw ang kasama ko nakakasawa na kasi, and besides I need to give all of my time to my girlfriend.”Nakatingin lang Ito sa kamay ko na nasa beywang ni angel bago sakin.

“Ganon ba. I'm sorry sige I won't bother you anymore gusto ko lang naman magpaalam sayo na lilipat na kami sa London.”she left.

Napabitaw ako sa beywang ni angel at napatulala.

She's leaving.

“Ivan Hindi ka ba magpapa-alam? Aalis na sina faith.”I ignored my mom's banging on my door.

I was just staring blankly at the cieling, my heart and brain are in turmoil.

Bumangon ako at napatingin sa album na iniwan ni faith sa harap ng bahay.

Binuklat ko yun it was our pictures since we were young until nag college na kami.

I smiled bitterly remembering all our happy memories together.

As I open the next page I saw a bond paper.

Tumakbok ako palabas I saw my mom at the gate.

“Mom nasan sila?”

“Son akala ko ba—”

“Mom! Nasan sila!”Mom looked shocked.

“Umalis na patungong airport kanina pa—Ivan!”Sumampa ako sa motor ko at mabilis yung pinaandar.

“Please...”I was silently hoping Hindi pa sila nakarating sa airport.

“F*ck traffic! Bakit ngayon pa t*ngina.”Naghanap ako ng ma sisingitan para umusad.

Then it started raining hard.

“Damn it."I was almost losing hope when I saw a familiar car.

Nabuhayan ako ng loob at binilisan ang pagdrive.

Inunahan ko ang sasakyan and stopped right in front of it.

Mabilis akong bumaba pati na ang sakay ng sasakyan.

“What the hell are you—Ivan?”

“Tito I'm sorry I need to talk to her.”Sakto namang bumaba si Faith.

“Ivan..”Nilagpasan mo si Tito at hinila payakap si faith.

“Wag ka na umalis magpapa kasal pa Tayo diba?”I raised the wet bond paper.

“Nakalimutan mo kasi and you started liking other girls na.”She cried.

“I know, I'm sorry.. but one thing is sure ikaw lang Ang gusto ko faith.”I cupped her face.

“I'm just confused of my feelings and how to act natatakot akong mawala ka sakin, I love you since I don't know when it started.”

"I love you too..”My eyes widened when she kissed me.
