Kasalukuyan kaming naglalakad ngayon ni Kai papuntang cafeteria, well Kai? He told  me to call him Kai I don't know why but Kai much more convenient than Zayn. Magkahawak ang mga kamay namin na naka kuha nanaman ng atensiyon ng mga tulad naming istudiyanteng nag-kalat sa koridor kasabay ng sari-saring bulungan nila ng kung ano-ano.

"Sila ba?"

"Suwerte naman nung girl"

"Hay sasaktan lang siya niyan"

"Ang sweet kaya nila they look good together"

"I bet, they'll never last"

Iba't-ibang bulong ng mga kapwa namin istudiyante. Na nakaka-kita sa eksena namin ngayon ni Kai.

"Don't mind them" Kai suddenly whispered in his usual deep husky voice.

Bago ako nakahugot ng lakas na loob na mag-salita ay nabalot muna kami ng nakakabinging katahimikan.

I stare straight to his eyes, as he raised his eyebrow. As if he's already expecting me to asked a lot of questions to him.

I let out a heavy sigh again before I start to speak.

"B-bakit mo g-ginawa yun?" pautal-utal na tanong ko sa kaniya, I don't know why I suddenly feel regreted after I said those words. I must be mad right? Hayy I don't know!

"Its Reign, Alessia Reign Ventura" malungkot na sabi niya lang na may halong lungkot sa boses niya.

"Ahmmm?? Reign? Aha! Alessia Reign Ventura, the leader of cheering squad" I said as a matter of fact.

"Ok Reign? Whats with her?" sunod sunod na tanong ko sa kaniya. I was about to take back my questions when he suddenly speak. Hay Mei shut your mouth! I bowed my head as I feel embarassed.

"She is my ex-girlfriend" he replied sadly that made me surprised, I raised my head again to stare at him. Ex? really? How come? Well they both have perfect looks. I can say that they look good together. But what happened? As much as I want to ask, I just shut my mouth.

He then sit to floor near the window, I just follow him while trying to comfort him even if I don't know how to start. Then I just decided to sit not that too near on him.

"We were so happy before, every day that God has given she make it complete for me. She become my world. I gave everything to her, I did everything just to make her happy and to be contented. I love her so damn much, she loves me too. We both love each other back then" pag-sisimula niya, but I didn't expect him to tell me that. So instead of asking him, I just listen to him.

"I wish were still together" pagpa-patuloy niya na para bang inaalala ang lahat ng alaala nila nuong mga panahong masaya pa siya, sila I should say. Why I feel strange, na para bang mas gusto kong nag-kahiwalay sila. Even if I feel sorry for him right now.

"But in just a snap of time, all of happy moments we have just gone replacing by sad memories. Days that I don't like to go back to, days that how I wish would have been just a nightmare. She broke-up with me without even giving me a fucking good reason. That time I feel like, Im so plain stupid!" malungkot niyang pagkukuwento at hindi niya namamalayan na unti-unti na palang bumabagsak ang mga luha niya. I handed him my handkerchief, he took it and wiped it with his tears.

"And then one day I saw her, I fucking saw her kissing with another man. And that man it turn out that it is my fucking best friend, my friend which I almost considered my own brother" galit niyang sabi that made me shocked, really its his best friend? I can't believe it.

Napakunot naman ako ng noo, as I remembered what he did a while ago "Eh bakit mo ko niyakap kanina?" nagtatakang kong tanong sa kaniya.

"Simple lang, dahil ayokong makita niya/nila akong nagluluksa habang siya/sila na masaya, dumaan sila. I saw them, together" galit na sagot ni Zayn.

"So you, because you are the only one that is here before, I have no choice and at this time I know they're both thinking that you are my new girlfriend" pagpapatuloy niya na may halong pang-iinis na sa boses. And that made me so shocked. So what he wanted to say? Don't tell me-

"Hah!? Eh bak-" hindi ko na natapos pa ang sasabihin ko dahil pinutol na niya agad ito.

"Yhup, so whether you like it or not you'll pretend to be my girl, baby" he said. Ngumisi siya bago tuluyang hinawakan ang kamay ko at hinatak pa ako papalabas ng aming classroom at sabay na kaming nagtungong cafeteria habang nakatuon ang lahat ng atensiyon sa aming dalawa. Now how regretful I am that I still stay here with him. I rather just let him be alone here than this.

"Remember may kasalanan ka pa sa akin at huwag ka na ngang choosy, as if I like to be with you" bulong pa niya sa tapat ng tainga ko na nagpakilabot at nag-patayo sa mga balahibo ko. Kasabay ng hindi ko maipaliwanag na kaba sa dibdib ko.

"Wow! huh! As if a also like to be with you too!" I exclaimed that made his head turn to face me which surprised me because our lips were barely touching now.

"You better shut up baby or else I'll kiss you here, in front of them" he threatened that made my hands tremble as I immediately cover my lips.

"Good job baby" he then whispered again. My God baby? really? Did he just call me baby again? Hayy!! How I wish this is just a dream.
