I don't know why..
I don't know how did it happen..
All I know is that..
I did... Fell in love..
With my Best Friend.
The problem with falling in love with your best friend is that you can't talk about it with your best friend...
Isang linggo na nakalipas after I confessed about my preference. But I'm lucky enough na hindi nagbago ang treatment sa kin ni Franki. She's still the best friend I knew. Kaso habang tumatagal lalong lumalalim..
"Hey are you even listening to me?" nagising ang diwa ko at tila pinapapili ako if anong magandang damit na susuotin niya.
We're here at the mall para mag shopping. Nahila niya ako coz she needs to buy a dress daw for the upcoming event sa Campus.
"pareho naman na maganda." matipid kong sagot dito.
"huh? So ano nga?" nakakunot na ang kilay niya, yari na..
"kahit ano suotin mo sa diyan bagay sa yo." nakangiti lang ako sa kanya habang siya naparoll ang eyes..
"you're unbelievable haaaist." sabi niya sabay talikod sa akin..
"huy wait Punky san ka pupunta huy eto naman joke lang eh." hinawakan ko siya sa braso para humarap sa akin.
"stop making fun of me, di na nakakatuwa mga banat mo eh." naku ito na nga mukhang nabad trip ko na siya pero bakit parang ang saya ko na nagsusungit siya nowadays.
"see? Hay naku, its no fun here anymore." pumiglas siya sa hawak ko at dali daling lumabas sa clothing store.
Patay wala na siya sa mood magshop.. Think Diana, what should I do??..

A few moments later...
Nandito na kami sa car ko pero di pa din kami nakakaalis sa parking lot. Kanina ko pa siya sinusuyo na para bang magkasintahan kami. (how I wish)..
"Uy Frances Margarett Russell, sorry na. I just wanna have fun, I didn't mean to have it that much. Pansinin mo na ko.. Sige ka di ko papaandarin tong car." pagmamakaawa ko dito na kanina pa walang imik.
"e di wag bahala ka dyan.." tumalikod siya na nakakibit balikat. Ang cute niya parang bata haha.
Wala na kong nagawa, di na ko natutuwa sa pagtatampo niya pati ako unti unti na ding nawawala sa mood.
So I started to turn the engine on. Di pa din siya kumikibo.
Music starts to play... (All to well by Taylor Swift)
I walked through the door with you, the air was cold, But something 'bout it felt like home somehow and I Left my scarf there at your sister's house, And you still got it in your drawer even now.
Oh, your sweet disposition and my wide-eyed gaze. We're singing in the car, getting lost upstate. The Autumn leaves falling down like pieces into place, And I can picture it after all these days.
And I know it's long gone, And that magic's not here no more, And I might be okay, But I'm not fine at all.
'Cause there we are again on that little town street. You almost ran the red 'cause you were looking over me. Wind in my hair, I was there, I remember it all too well.
Franki's POV
Nakakainis na siya. Sobrang mapang-asar. I don't know saan nanggagaling yung energy niya parang hindi nauubusan. Tulugan ko nga.
Bang!!!!
I suddenly woke up when I heard her car door banged as soon as she closed it.
She went out and I watch her walking towards a Burger Machine.
Few moments later..
Pabalik na siya handling a paper bag. So I tried to act asleep as if na di pa ako nagigising.
"Hey Franki here's your burger oh." I heard her voice while tapping my shoulder.
"huy, ano na gising ka na sige na habang mainit pa tong burger." as she wakes me up.
"haaays.." I heard a deep sigh from her and then turned into a deafening silence.
Di ko na matiis na hindi siya pansinin kaya...
"akin na yung burger ko" I was about to get it in front of her steering wheel kaso ang bilis ng reflex niya.
"Oops, too slow Franki!!" nakuha niya agad at itinaas pa ng bahagya.
"that's mine give it to me!!" as I tried my best to reach it from her hands.
"No hahaha, kanina ko pa binibigay sa yo to ikaw tong aayaw ayaw diyan haha, abutin mo kung kaya mo haha.." can't believe this girl maiiyak na kakatawa ang kaninang napakaseryoso niyang mukha..
"No it's mine akin na kas....." bigla akong natigil nang magtama ang aming mga mata..

Suddenly the world seems stop turning. It feels like I saw my soul deep in her eyes. And just by a few seconds it felt like it's forever.
I didn't realise that we're now too close to each other. I never noticed that til I felt her warm breath.
I was snapped when she started speaking
"Ahem.. Hmm. Oh ito na yung burger mo." sabi ni Diana as she turned her head by the window.
"thanks." me looking away from her.
