"Thank you talaga, Justine!" bigla nalang akong niyakap ni Janella.
She's my bestfriend since grade 4. Pati nga ata kinakatakutan at mga nunal n'ya alam ko eh..
"Welcome..." nakangiting saad ko.
'di ako gaya ng ibang lalaki na kapag may gusto sa isang babae liligawan agad nila.
I'm not that typical guy na almost perfect.
Yes, may itsura ako pero maraming mas hihigit sakin....
Like Razel na nanliligaw kay Janella..
Razel is so handsome and rich.
but me? I'm only just a driver and maid son..
Alam kong kapag nanligaw ako kay janella pagtawanan pa ako and worst? baka masira ang pagkakaibigan namin.
I don't want that to happen... I can love her afar.
Alam mo yung pakiramdam na mahal mo s'ya pero 'di mo maamin kasi baka may magbago?
what they called it? Torpe.. Duwag..
Yes, am I. Pero kaibigan ko eh..
Ayos na 'tong status namin...
Lumipas ang araw na masaya...
Not until that day came...
Im with Janella but a one girl made us stop.
"Hey, Janella! may surprise si Razel sayo.." Excited na sabi nito...
Nagpunta kami sa field at may kumpulan ng estudyante doon...
Sisingit sana kami ng mahati sa gitna at mapunta sa'min ang mga atensyon nila.
And, andoon sa gitna si Razel, may hawak na boquet of pink roses and wearing his smile..
"Janella... You're the girl I want to marry. You're my everything..." inabot ni Razel kay Janella ang bulaklak..
May card doon na binasa si Janella.... I dont know what is that but I think nandoon ang mga nais sabihin ni Razel..
"Please, give me a chance to be your boyfriend.." saad ni Razel.
Lahat nag-aabang ng isasagot ni Janella..
and I know that she's gonna say yes...
"It's a yes.." pagkasabi no'n ni Janella agad-agad siyang niyakap ni Razel...
All of them are happy but me?
Hurting inside...
Pero walang may alam.
Because Janella don't know that I love her..
Before I cried infront of them, I turned my back and walk out...
And silently praying that Razel wouldn't hurt Janella..
UNTOLD FEELINGS
Janella's P.O.V.
Way back then, I'm happy to meet someone like Justine.
Halos araw araw niya akong pinapatawa and I can't help but to fall for him.
But there's so many hindrance...
My family and our lifestatus.. pero kung mahal niya din ako; I promise that I will fight for him..
While we were walking. Ashley stop us...
"Hey, Janella! May surprise si Razel sayo!!" Kahit ayaw ko siyang makita, I have no choice.
Razel is my suitor. Wala akong balak na sagutin siya pero nagbanta siya na he will kill Justine.
He's too rich and he can control anyone if he want too. I love Justine that much and I'm willing to sacrifice my happiness for his own sake..
Nang makarating kami sa may field may mga kumpulan ng tao roon..
Sisingit sana kami but those people gave us way..
and there I saw rayzel with a bouquet of flower and wearing his smile...
"Janella... You're the girl I want to marry.. you're my everything.." he said.
Tinanong ko ba? Inabot niya sa'kin ang bulaklak na may card...
'Try not to say yes...you know what i can do...'
'Yan ang nabasa ko sa card.."Please give me a chance to be your boyfriend.." Inaasahan 'kong hihilahin at ipaglalaban ako ni Justine.
but he doesn't..
"Yes..." After I said that, he hugged me..
"You love him that much, huh?" he sarcastically whispered..
I saw Justine in my pheripheral vision that he walked away..
I assume that he will fight for me and try to stop what's happening..
but he just only stand there... I only wish that nothing bad will happen to him.
AFTER 2 YEARS
I'm so happy that I saw justine again... Wearing his smile and laughing...
"You may now kiss the bride.." anunsyo ng pari...
Matapos iangat ni Justine ang belo palapit na ng palapit ang mukha niya kaya napapikit nalang ako...
It's so fucking painful! I'm hurting that I am not the bride...
6 months lang ang tinagal ng relasyon namin ni Razel and napagdesisyunan ko na umamin na kay Justine....
But it was too late..
He's so fucking engaged!
I remember what he said before..."Huwag mong sayangin ang time na umamin sa tao na mahal mo, lalo na kung alam mong mahal ka rin n'ya.. kasi baka dumating ang araw na sigurado ka na pero sya, may iba na..."
Yeah... it was all of my fault... if I only said my feelings before baka ako na ang bride n'ya...
AUTHOR'S NOTE
Love is sacrifice. Justine sacrifice for Janella's happiness. Akala niya ay magiging masaya si Janella sa piling ni Razel but he was wrong. Even he's hurt, he tried to move on and luckily he found a girl that he'd marry. On the other side, Janella sacrifice her happiness for Justine's safety.
That's how love works. Sacrifice for one another even it will take away your happiness.
