Chesca Dellosa's POV
Everything hurts. My head, my arms, my legs, MY WHOLE BODY. Kakauwi ko lang from hospital and I have these bruises all over my body. Exact a month before my classes starts. I'm back to school pero I have these .. ugh bruises ... PESTE.
ANG TIGAS KASI NG ULO KO.. ANG BILIS TALAGA NG KARMA.
"Mam Chesca! May bisita po kayo!"
"Come in"
"Ches!! OMG! Are you okay? Ano saan pa ba masakit?" Tarantang tanong sakin ni Mae. Her face is really worried after seeing my bruises.. scattered all over my body.
"Don't worry Mae, I'm okay, sugat na lang yan" I assured her.
She hugged me tight. She's really my bestfriend since Highschool. God knows how much I love this girl.
"Sabi ko naman kasi sayo wag ka mag drive. Pwede naman magpa-drive ka na lang kay Mang Jun!" She scolded me.
"I know it's my fault. Ang tigas ng ulo ko. Nakalimutan ko wala na ko sa America at nasa Pilipinas na pala ko. Masyado ko kasi dinala pagka independent ko dito sa Pilipinas kaya eto" Nakaka frustrate kasi makita lahat ng bruises ko all over my body ngayon nasisi ko na talaga ang sarili ko.
"You know it's too late na sisihin yung sarili Ches, The damage has been done. Look at yourself. Just make sure na you'll visit your derma para sa mga bruises na yan. God knows how much you take care of your skin and your crazy obsession with those beauty products tapos in a snap biglang ganyan. Nakaka stress ka talaga Ches!!"
"I know. I know. It's fcked up. But I'm going to do that soon."
"WHATEVER the details about your accident please just let it pass Ches, I don't want to hear the whole story parang feeling ko anytime soon my stomach will not take it"
"Okay. I get it no tragic car accident story" And we both laugh
"Drop it off Ches, So kelan mo plano magpakita kay Marielle and Kath? Those two were crazy calling me yesterday para malaman kung totoo ba yung mga tweets mo or something. And I told them na if ever you're here I know magpapakita ka samin. Maybe you're just busy with Tito and Tita ang tagal mo din naman kasing nawala."
Marielle. Kath. Mae
My 3 bestfriends. My Assumption friends. God knows how much I miss the three of them. I left the three of them when I decided to migrate in States. I'm too childish for my actions back then. I didn't care. All I wanted to do is to escape. Escape from all of the things that hurted me. I never cared about anything back then feelings ko lang ang mahalaga. Isa lang ang alam ko noon " Nasaktan ako ng sobra at walang nakakaintindi sakin" Kaya ako lumayo and I'm thankful my parents agreed with my decision. And now I'm back maybe for good? I don't know too kung babalik pa ba ko sa America dahil masyado na ko nasanay sa buhay ko doon na mag-isa. Pero nakakapagod din naman bumalik-umalis-bumalik-umalis. I'm not yet sure in staying here after all. Kaya lang naman ako bumalik kasi sa Mom and Dad ko. I miss them so much kahit na binibisita nila ko doon iba pa din yung feeling na kasama ko sila. I have no concrete plans here in the Philippines madali lang naman ulit bumalik sa States kung gugustuhin ko. My plans is just... going back in a regular school here in the Philippines. And I chose Ateneo.
"Ches, you're spacing out! OMG"
"Sorry... Ano ulit yung sinabi mo?"
Mae shook her head. "Gutom na ata yan eh. I'm asking you na to give Marielle and Kath a call. I'll give you their numbers. Tell them what happened to you about that accident shit thing. And nga pala I saw your x--- Oh I saw your uhm" She stutter I know she's hiding something
"You saw? What did you saw? Or should I say Who?"
"It's nothing, Some of our uhm. F.f.f.friends back then"
"You're not a good liar Mae. 2 years na nga tayo hindi nagkita hindi mo pa na-practice yan."
"Okay. Okay FINE CHES! I saw your ever ANGELIC FACE EXBOYFRIEND WITH A DEMON ATTITUDE" She said. She still hates Jeric.
"Jeric?"
"Sino pa ba? May iba ka pa bang ex? Or baka naman may tinago ka pa samin ha"
Binato ko siya ng unan. "Baliw. What did you told him?"
"Eager" She smirked. "Wala about you going back home, About you fixing your shit together, About you maybe getting back together"
Umiling ako.
"Hindi na. Tama na yung ilang taon kong pagdudusa. Tama na"
"Mabuti alam mo" Sabay kaming natawa ni Mae.
"I know you're hungry. I'll bake you something? I grab some baking stuffs before I came here. I know how much you miss my specialties" She smiled at me.
"Of course Mae. I've been craving for that in States"
Mae is the best baker. Not because were friends. Really she is. When I left she studied baking and all of the stuffs. Before she graduated high school her mom helped her to put up a business. Vanilla Cupcakes. Inc. Because her specialty is Vanilla Cupcake.
"How's Vanilla Cupcakes?"
"It's doing good by next moth were gonna open our third branch. Buti na lang nandito ka na. Lagi kasing si Kath and Marielle lang ang present. Don't worry I'll tour you on our 2 branches Ches!"
"Really? Omg business minded ka na talaga! I'm excited for your third branch Mae!"
"Ako pa. So ano tara? Let's bake?"
"Yep sure"
