Ikatlo

"Paano kapag isang araw nalaman mong hindi pala talaga ikaw ang mahal ni Thirdy?"

"Edi tatanggapin ko."

Tatanggapin ko kasi gusto ko sya at gusto ko masaya sya.

"Bei, bakit hindi ka pa magmove on? Halata naman eh that Ikatlo doesnt like you anymore."

Maki is right. Halata naman na talaga na hindi na nya ako gusto. Halata naman na talaga that i am just his long time crush. Crush lang.

"What if one day you wake up and Thirdy knocks on your door naman tapos confess na ikaw pa rin, anong gagawin mo?"

"I would be glad but confuse kasi im gonna ask him, bakit ngayon lang."

Maki is asking me right now random questions. Nandito sila sa bahay 'cause we're gonna have a sleepover. We miss each other na. We do this naman often kapag may free time. Thats the magic of highschool barkada.

"Would you accept his love?"

"I dont know. I have given him more chance naman to prove himself to me. Sya lang naman talaga ang magulo eh."

I told them while hugging my pillow.

"Right Bei, magulo nga sya."

"Pangarap ka nalang ba? O magiging katotohanan pa. Bakit may mahal ka nang iba." Maki sang that song and i just smile. Pati OPM sumasali samin.

"He likes that cheerleader." Cel stated blankly..

"Obviously Cel. Post dito, post doon. Flex na flex girl."

Recently, napapadalas ang post ni Ikatlo sa cheerleader na 'yon. Almost everywhere he goes, kasama nya 'yon.

"They are barkada." I told them.

"Barkada nga lang ba?"

"Or barkada pa ba? You know what there are two ideas there. Barkada nga lang ba,as in hanggang friends lang or barkada pa ba as in papasok na ba sila sa ibang level."

It was Maki. Ewan ko ayokong mag-isip kasi ako lang nasasaktan sa huli.

"Are you theatened Bei?"

"Yes and No. Yes cos they have so many similarities. No cos i know my worth. Kapag hindi kami, edi hindi kami."

"Pero kahit hindi kayo sya pa rin ang gusto mo."

I like Ikatlo. I really like him but how would i say that its him already if he is not sure of me?

"Wag kang matakot Bei. Lagi naman syang bumabalik sayo." Cell added.

"Maks, Cel, lagi nalang bang dapat bumabalik sakin? Bakit ba hindi sya magstay? Pwede ba 'yon na laging bumabalik?"

Consistency is the key but somehow Thirdy failed it.
