Just A UniPhant Story

"Kanina pa namin kayo hinahanap!" Alice exclaimed as she saw Ella and Gabb who just entered the resort. The two looked at each other, Gabb on the other hand gave their captain a smile.

"Sorry ate gusto ko kasi icheck yung coffee shop malapit dito." She shrugged draping her left arm to their captain's shoulder. "Eh nakita ko na busy kayo kaya si ate Ella lang naisama ko." Secretly Gabb winked at Ella making her blush. Since its only Gabb knows about Sela and Abby and now her they can't tell their captain why they suddenly disappeared.

"Sus! Kunwari ka pa sa busy kami, gusto mo lang masolo si Ella kaya hindi ka nag aya." Skribikin broke into a huge smile sending thousands, no actually it felt like a million butterflies inside Ella's tummy.

"Shhh secret lang natin yun ate." The trio head inside with Alice telling the duo to join them as they will start the volleyball game with Gabb wanted to play while Ella told them that she will just watch the game.

"San ka galing? Nawala ka bigla." Gia asked as she sat next to Ella, grabbing her towel she proceeds to dry her soaking wet hair. "Hanap ng hanap sina captain kanina."

"Gia alam ko na nararamdaman ko para sakanya." Ella said earning a confused look from Gia. "Alam ko na, sure na ako sa nararamdaman ko." Ella was overwhelmed, she is now sure what she is feeling for the younger girl. Her eyes glued to Gabb, loving how the latter jumps or run just to to hit the ball. When Gabb smiles she cannot help but to break into a smile too, Gia watching her friend makes her heart melt seeing how Ella's smiles so bright because of the latter.

"In love ka sakanya yun ba yun?" Gia said catching Ella's attention, slowly Amat nodded her head. "Buti naman at na figure out mo na yung nararamdaman mo para kay Gabb." There is a short pause both of them watching the friendly game of beach volleyball.

"So anong plano mo?" Ella pouted a little. "Aamin ka ba sakanya?" Shaking her head she sigh.

"In love ako sa kanya oo pero mas pinapahalagahan ko yung friendship namin." Bringing her knees close to her chest she rest her chin to her knee. "Baka mamaya kapag umamin ako sakanya, ma reject lang ako at masira yung friendship namin."

"So okay kana sa friends friends nalang ganun? Okay na sayo kung anong meron kayo? Okay lang na friend ka lang niya?" Gia asked her eyes focused at Ella.

"Oo okay na ako sa kung aning meron kami, di ko kakayanin kung yung anong meron kami ngayon mawawala dahil lang sa umamin ako at nag hangad ng more pa sa friendship." Ella stood up facing her. "Basta ang mahalaga napaparamdam ko sakanya na mahal ko siya at isusuport ko siya kahit anong mangyare." Shaking her head Gia watched as Ella joined the girls in the water.

"Hay nako Ella napaka clueless mo talaga." Standing up she joined them following Ella in the water.

"Okay eto na." Ella heard Gabb's voice followed by a laugh that she guessed from Rans. Inching closer to the balcony's door, she made sure not to make any sounds not wanting to disturb the two.

"Sige go shoot." She wants to know what Gabb wants to say so she stays quiet gripping on the hem of her shirt.

"I have feelings for you." Her eyes widen, she knows how close Gabb with Rans but she doesn't know that the younger girl has feelings for Rans. "Di ko alam kung kailan basta I just suddenly felt it. I just suddenly realized how much you mean to me..." Tears started to build in her eyes making her vision blurry. With her heart aching, her vision blurry she ran out of the room slamming the door closed not minding if Rans and Gabb will hear it. As she turn in a corner she bumped with Dana and Jem.

"Ella bakit ka umiiyak?" Dana asked pulling the taller girl for a hug.

"Lala anong problema?" Jem look so worried but Ella just continues to cry. "Doon tayo sa room namin." Jem pulled Ella to their room with Dana shaking her head as she follows the two.

"Okay bakit ka umiiyak?" Jem asked as Dana gave Ella a glass of water to calm down. Ella drank the water giving the glass to Dana who sat in the bed in front of them.

"Gabb." Dana and Jem looked at each other. "I am in love with Gabb." Ella smiled making Dana and Jem to widen their eyes. They know how close the two but doesn't know that Ella's feelings is more deeper than they thought. "Ngayon ko lang narealized pero di kami pareho ng nararamdaman." She chuckled shaking her head, fighting the tears that are threatening to fall.

"Anong ibig mong sabihin?" Dana asked frowning, she sets the glass on the side table.

"Narinig ko na nag uusap sila ni Rans." She took a deep breath. "Narinig ko din na nag confess siya, di ko na kaya, kaya tumakbo ako." With that Ella broke down again crying, this time much harder than before. Jem and Dana looked at each other, Jem on the other hand pulled Ella for a hug.

The girls are called as it was dinner time, Ella looked at Dana and Jem.

"Sa inyo ako makikitable." She said earning a hug smile from the couple. Looking around Ella spotted Gabb with Rans laughing together. She felt a pinch on her heart, looking away she tries so hard to ignore the two.

"Uy ate Ella!" Hearing Gabb's voice Ella closed her eyes before turning her attention to Skribikin.

"Gabb, Rans." She gave them a smile but still feeling jealous especially with Rans clinging to Gabb's arm. Dana and Jem watched the trio and looked at Ella.

"Uhm Ella kukuha na kami ng foods." Nodding she smiled at Dana.

"San ka pala galing kanina? Hinahanap ka sakin ni ate Gia kanina." Gabb said grabbing three plates both giving Ella and Rans. Quickly she turns her attention to the food resting on top of the table.

"Sa kwarto lang nina Jem." Ella quickly put foods on her plates before turning to Gabb. "Sige maiwan ko na kayo." Before the younger girl can speak she quickly left making her way towards the PikaBabe's table. As she sat she let out a sigh.

"Parang sasabog ang puso ko." She mumbled but Dana and Jem heard it. "Ganito pala ang feeling kapag nagseselos." Even though she's smiling the couple in front of her still can see how hurt she was. "Anyways kain na tayo." Trying to cheer herself she proceeds to eat but as if even her taste bud is affected as she cannot really taste the food and the feeling on her heart became unbearable. As if her eyes being magnified by Gabb, she saw Rans laughing with Gabb smiling hitting the short haired girl on the shoulders.

"She looks happy naman at yun ang importante." She though tearing her eyes away from the UniSoy couple.
