It Was Always You

I woke up on the right side of the bed. I felt so pumped up, because this will be the day that I will meet my ex again. Mika changed, I guess it's because of me breaking her so much.

We didn't end up pretty good, actually. It's like one of the movie scene that Mika caught me and Trinca kissing. Hindi naman kasi ganun yung talagang nangyare, I mean, yung iniisip nya. Mika was so stubborn, that she didn't even want to hear me explain. I ran after her, thinking that she would still let me speak. But in return, I got a slap from a volleybelle. After that, I drove all the way to Bulacan to get her back. But her mom told me that Mika left with her sister.

Masyadong dramatic yung break up namin, but the truth is, I still love her. Trinca and I went out for a few dates and we became together again. Even if Trinca was already my girl, I still miss Mika. One time, Trinca saw dialled numbers of Mika. Syempre, girl's instict ang magalit at magselos.

Kaya rin siguro hindi ako masyadong nasaktan sa break up namin ni Trinca, is because di ko sya ganun ka mahal. And the scheme I made, it's just for revenge. Hindi naman ako papayag na maiwan ako ng babaeng yun. I would have Mika again, back in my arms.

"Paps, where you goin'"? Thirdy asked when I stepped outside my bedroom.

"Hittin' the gym. Sama ka?" Then we both head to the gym.

We were on the treadmill when Thirdy opened about the "wedding" thing.

"Kuys, why Ate Mika? I mean, you have a  lot of exes naman diba! Hahaha!"

"Baliw ka! You know, Mika's the most special among all those girls." Thirdy just shook his head off.

"What made her special, huh?"

"It's for you to know! Hahahaha!" We both laughed.

"You know what, I don't get you. Si Mika pa ang napili mong balikan, yung ex mong galit na galit pa rin yata sayo!"

After that, we went to our house in Cainta. My parents lived there with Dani. Thirdy and I live in a condo unit near Libis. Our mom was really flabbergasted when she opened the door for us.

"Boys! Bakit di kayo nagsabi? Come in!" We kissed mom in her forehead.

"Ma, naisipan lang naman namin ni Kuys. Saan si Daniela?" Thirdy looked for Dani.

"Manong, you look.. good!" Mom scrutinized me.

"Mom, gwapo na ako. Matagal na!" Natawa naman kami parehas. Mom's cooking lunch pala so I joined her in the kitchen.

"Kayo naman kasi, di kayo nagsabi! I should've cooked your favorites."

"Ma, no need. I have my favorite girl right here." Then I gave mom a quick hug.

"Ako di mo na favorite?" Dani entered and give me a very very tight hug.

"Dani!! Syempre kayo ni mommy ang favorite girls ko!"

"Nakakatampo kayo ni kuya Thirds ha! Ang tagal nyo ng hindi dumadalaw dito!" Dani punched my arm.

"Here I am now, happy?"

"Very happy! Hay, namiss ko tuloy din bigla si Ate Miks." Dani sighed. Nagkatinginan kami ni Thirdy.

"Nakakausap mo pa ba sya?" I asked Dani.

"Oo naman! Ka-snapchat, ka-viber, ka-tweet pa nga eh! Bakit, inggit ka?" Dani playfully smiled at me.

"Hindi ah! Saka kami rin kaya naguusap din, diba Thirds?" Thirdy just nodded.
