Bea
Hindi padin kami naguusap ever since that almost accident. Iniiwasan ko siya and I noticed na the more we spend time apart, the more I see them hang out.
Yes, I admit. It frustrates me somehow. This feeling is so foreign to me when it comes to him. Never in my life did I Imagine I'd feel this. But maybe hanggang don nalang yon. Ayokong nafrufrustrate, ayokong madaming tanong sa isip ko na hindi masagot sagot, ayokong ganito ang nararamdaman ko towards it. It's... scary.
I never worry whenever he's around other girls or when we don't hang out. I'm cool whether we're together or not. ngayon lang... naging iba. Maybe this is what I was scared to feel. Thirdy having a girlfriend at nagiging totoo na.
napasabunot ako ng slight sa buhok ko. I groaned.
You know what? I don't care.
I heard someone place a cup on the table and the sofa moved a little. I opened my eyes and saw my dad reading something in the newspaper.
"It's so early nakakunot agad yang mukha mo" he said without looking at me.
"Nakakainis lang kasi" sabi ko
"The problem is that you lack communication" seryoso niyang sabi still without looking at me.
"Huh?" confused kong tanong. Did I lack communication?
"By the way, he's outside waiting. Thought you'd want to know" napaupo ako ng deretso.
"Who is outside?" mas lalo akong naguluhan kay dad. Pamysterious!
"Who pa ba? Thirdy of course. duh" he said and sipped on his coffee
"Dad! where did you learn that?" He shrugged. Tumayo na ako and walked towards the door.
Wait.. baka he's only joking tapos I look excited pa.
I rolled my eyes and walked back. Naabutan ko siyang nakasandal ang isang arm sa backrest ng upuan. like he was waiting for me to come back.
"You were kidding. Hay nako, dad." frustrated kong sabi.
"Excuse you? Why don't you check?" he said sabay balik sa pag basa ng newspaper.
Parang bata! I swear ugh.
Naglakad ako pabalik sa front door. Tamad kong binuksan ang pinto expecting na joke lang naman talaga yon pero naabutan ko si thirdy na naka pamulsa while leaning on his car. When he heard the front door napatingin siya saken and our eyes met.
Oh, calm yourself Beatriz. Naglakad ako papunta sa may gate and he stood up.
"What are you doing here?" I asked crossing my arms.
He opened the door for me. I raised my eyebrows, "What?"
"Can you get in?" mahinahon niyang sabi.
When I got in I wore my seatbelt. Safety first. I asked what he was doing here hindi man lang ako sinagot! He just told me to dress up.
"Where are we going ba?" curious kong tanong when he got in and started the car.
"Basta, madami. Are you ready?" he said smiling
"Do I have a choice?" sabi ko then rolled my eyes.
"Yes? I told you na-" I cut him off.
"Whatever" He started driving. så
I didn't know where he was taking me and he wouldn't tell me kaya di ko na pinilit. Why am I even here? Hindi bat Im mad at him? Hay nako
We're stuck sa traffic ngayon and his playlist isn't helping. I disconnected his phone and changed it with mine.
"That was a good song" mahina niyang protesta.
"Excuse you? my ears bled after hearing it," I said.
He commented "sungit" and raised both his hands to surrender.
"Okay... okay. You're the boss" he said shaking his head.
I played Sunday candy.
"Namiss mo ba ko?" I asked out of nowhere. I wasn't looking at him, instead nakaharap ako sa binatana. But I knew napalingon siya sa tanong ko.
"Maybe not. It looked like you had company to keep you busy." dugtong ko.
it was dead silence for a minute or so.
"But it would always be different with you. So to answer your question, yes, I did miss you... sobra." whispering the last few word? or words? I don't know.
"of course you'll say that."
"Kasi totoo." seryoso niyang sabi.
Alam mo if there's something I learned sa internet, It was what I read. Kung gusto mo makita, puntahan mo. Kung mahal mo, paramdam mo. Kung gusto mo kausap, tawagan mo. Kung miss mo, puntahan mo. Stop wasting time. Wag puro salita! My god speaker ka ba?
Nilingon ko siya at tiningnan ng mabuti. His eyes were focused on the road.
Maya maya my phone rang.
"Hello?"
"Hey, asan ka?"
"Why?" I asked.
"Wanna hangout?" yaya niya.
"I can't. I'm with.." bitin ko sa kausap sabay tingin kay thirdy na nilingon din ako, "Im with thirdy, eh. we are off to somewhere."
"Ah.. okay! Take care, Bea"
"Yeah, you too" I said before dropping the call.
After the call, I received a couple of text messages from him.
I heard him sigh before asking a question.
"Sino yon?"
"Aj" I answered truthfully. He nodded.
"Bakit daw?" his elbow was resting on the window while rubbing his chin.
"He wanted to hang out daw" I said.
From: Aj
You're with him? I guess you guys are okay already? Take care, beadel.
To: Aj
Yeah, I guess. Thanks! You too
From: Aj
Are you free later though? For dinner?
To: Aj
I don't know, really.
From: Aj
Hmm okay. I get it.
After replying I kept my phone.

FanfictionA best friend. Thirdy Ravena was only a best friend to Bea de Leon. At least that's what she kept telling everyone. It's not until she reads this thread her fans made about them. Confused? Why is she confused?
