Allison Montecello: The Highschool Sweetheart turned Bitch

Chapter 4: First Move

PATRICE's POV
10:00 na ng gabi at wala pa rin si Nathalie?! Where is she na ba?!

By the way, I'm Patrice Tippy Delos Reyes. Nathalie's bestfriend.. Actually, Allison Nathalie Montecello yung name niya.. Pero she doesn't like "Allison" anymore, kaya Nathalie na yung tawag namin sa kanya.. That's also her screen name..

Anyway, she told me na dadating siya before 9! Pero bakit wala pa rin siya?!

Tinawagan ko siya, hindi naman sumasagot..

*krring krring* *krring krring*
Shaun calling...

S-si.. Si Shaun?? Biglang tumigil yung puso ko.. Masakit.. Masakit pa rin..

Gaaah! I hate you Shaun!!!" Tinapon ko yung phone ko pero sa sofa lang naman..

Gaaah! I hate him!! Bakit niya ba ako sinasaktan nang ganito?!?! Napapaluha na ako nang biglang may kumatok...

Paglingon ko, akala ko kung sino.. Si Nathalie lang pala!

"Best?!" Sigaw ko sa kanya

"Yepp??" Sagot niya sakin habang tinatanggal niya yung sapatos niya..

"What time is it??!" Sagot ko like nagagalit ako!

"Don't you have a watch best?" Sagot niya sa'kin .. Pshhh.. Pilosopo.

"Best.. Wag kang pilosopo! Bakit ngayon ka lang??!!"

"Best. I'm tired okay? Scold me the first thing in the morning.."

Mukhang pagod nga siya.. Tsk..

"Hayssst.. Okay.. I would let it go lang muna.." Sabi ko sa kanya..

She smiled to me..

"Thank you best.. :)" tapos hinug niya ako..

Then may binulong siya sa'kin..
"You're the only friend that remained true..."

ALLISON's POV

I'm in the mall.. Luckily, Pat did not actually scold me or what.. She just asked me what happened.. Well, I told her that I met my ex-bestfriends, ex-friends, and my ex-boyfriend.. Tss.

That piece of junk.

While I am looking at the bags section, I heard a familiar voice..

"Yes..--Ok ok-- uh huh.."

"Oh... If it wasn't my bestfriend..."

Now, I'll begin with you..

"Hi Christina! What a coincidence?! What are you doing here??"

"Oh hi Nathalie.. May date kasi kami ngayon ni Rico eh.." She smiled.

I acted as if I was confused..

"Rico?"

"Rico Calvaro.. Nandun siya nung party eh.. Hmmm tingin ko nakalimutan mo na.. Pero it's okay! Makikilala mo ulit siya..!" She assuringly told me..

"Okay.. So, where is he?"

"Chris.." A boy suddenly called Christina from our back..

"Rico!!" Then she hugged him.

Tss. Too much PDA.. Akala ko ba naghiwalay na sila??!

" nga pala, Ric, this is Nathalie.. Remember??" Christina said.

"Hi.." Tss.. Rico is the complete opposite of Christina..

If she's way too talkative, then he is way too silent..

Yep, i know them.. Christina WAS my bestfriend right? When we were still in 2nd year highschool, they've been couples for a year then before they could even have their anniversary, Christina broke up with Rico..

I knew why.. And I'm using it against them..

"Hmmmm Nathalie??" Christina broke the silence.. "Gusto mo bang sumama sa date namin?"

Ohh.. It would be such a pleasure..

"Why not?" Then i smiled..if you know what I mean.. ;)

RICO's POV

"Chris." Tinuro ko si Nathalie.. "What is she doing here?"

"Ehhhh.. Nagkataon na nandun siya sa department store.. Kaya ayun, nagkatagpuan kami.. Ehh, okay lang naman na kasama siya diba??"

"Okay lang.." Sagot ko sa kanya..

Hindi lang talaga ako komportable pag nandyan si Nathalie..

"Nathalie, ano yung order mo?" Tanong ni Chris kay Nathalie.."

"I'll choose the Chef's finest.." Sagot niya..

"Ikaw Ric, anong gusto mo??"

"Ikaw bahala.." Sabi ko sa kanya..

Ngumiti siya sa akin at tumingin sa menu..

Sanay na si Christina sa akin.. Kilala niya ako bilang isang tahimik na tao at di ako masyadong palangiti.. Pwera nalang kung mga kabarkada namin yung kasama ko.. Dun lang ako nakikisaya talaga.

Habang naghihintay kami sa order namin, biglang may tumawag kay Chris kaya't in-excuse niya ang kanyang sarili sa amin ni Nathalie at lumabas lang muna ng resto..

Biglang nagsalita si Nathalie.. "How many months have you been together?" Tanong niya sa akin..

"3 weeks palang kami."

Oo, 3 weeks palang kami kasi pagkatapos ng halos 10 years na panliligaw, 3 weeks before lang niya ako sinagot.. Naiintindihan ko naman kasi noon pa man, mayroon na talaga siyang mahal at pinagpipilitan ko lang naman sarili ko sa kanya.. Pero pagkatapos ng 10 years na paghihintay, sinagot na niya ako ulit..

"You know what? You're stupid.." Binaba niya yung juice na kanina pa niya iniinom..

"Don't get me wrong okay? Christina told me at the party that you've been courting her for around 10 years?!" Bulalas niya sa akin.. "And she just made the both of you official after her boyfriend broke up with her??

Is that even legal??"

Sinagot ko siya.. "Anong point mo?"

Lumapit siya sa akin dahil may ibubulong siya.. At nabigla ako sa mga sinabi niya..

"Hindi kaya't panakip-butas kalang??"

Pagkatapos nun, dumating na si Chris at napaupo sa upuan niya..

At aaminin ko, nasaktan ako sa sinabi ni Nathalie...
