Definitely My Happy Pill

Chapter 5

Maurine Antheia's POV

It's been 2 weeks since Zepp and I became best friends and swear, he's a very solid best friend! Btw guys, It's Saturday and kakatapos lang ng training namen.

I'm with Cams nga pala kase diba pep din siya and siya na yung pinaka close ko sa team kase nasa iisang circle of friends lang din naman kami.

"Mau can we talk? I really want someone who I can open up about this." She said at umupo muna kami sa may bleachers. Bat parang kinabahan ako bigla?

"Ano yon Cams?" Nagtanong agad ako pagkaupo na pagka upo namin.

"I just want someone na mapag k-kwentuhan about Migs and I." I just listened to her as she continue talking.

"Mau, I don't know how to get over Migs." I don't know what to feel the time she said that so I just did nothing.

"He's been my boyfriend for 1 year and 5 months and he's actually my first. He's a very sweet, caring, understanding and protective boyfriend that I couldn't wish for more. We're both so happy and contented that time. But one day, we both changed. I also don't know why and what happened. You know, I love him but I got tired. I think that maybe he's too much for me that's why. But I'm not the only one who changed remember? He also did. Bigla nalang siyang nanlamig. I tried asking him what happened pero he keeps saying na don't mind him. And then boom, one day he just broke up with me without telling me any reason. That hurts alot Mau. Ansakit kase I thought na our relationship is in a right timing. I thought my heart is right, na I'm with the right person in a right place and timing. Pero hindi pala. Things aren't right that's why people change. That's why we changed. But the problem is I don't know what I should correct, how can I make things right if I don't know what's his problem? What's our problem? Ang hirap. Ang sakit. And I'm still stuck in that pain. In the past." Then she already burst out of tears.

Wala akong nagawa kundi icomfort lang siya. Kase ano ba naman magagawa ko? Sino ba naman ako para magbigay ng opinyon sa bagay na wala naman akong kaalam-alam? Siguro kailangan ko muna ding marinig yung side ni Zepp. Siguro naman I need to hear both sides para magtugma yung opinyon na ibibigay ko sa kanila diba?

"Cams, just let it out. Crying is not a sin. Pero siguro kailangan ko ring marinig yung side niya bago ako magbigay ng opinyon sa inyong dalawa. Don't worry, I'm always here to listen to you." Hinihimas ko yung likod niya para kahit papano mahimasmasan siya.

We parted ways when she stopped crying. She thanked me and said babalik na siya sa dorm. And me, I wanna talk to someone. To Zepp.

"Hey, namiss mo ko no?" Ayan nanaman siya sa kahanginan niya. Inakbayan niya ko habang naglalakad papunta sa bench na malapit dito sa kinatatayuan namin.

"Ewan ko sayo! May gusto kasi akong malaman. Can you tell me?" I asked then he looked at me straight in the eyes.

"What do you wanna know? Sasabihin ko."

Umupo kami sa bench at huminga ko ng malalim. Wooh! Kaya mo yan Mau. You can do it!

"Can I hear your side? Please tell me about what happened between you and Cams,," Wooh! I finally said it. Yumuko ako after telling that. I'm scared he'll refuse. He pinched my cheeks which made me look at him. He smiled, then looked away.

"Cams is my first ever girlfriend, and we're both too young. Aside from being beautiful, she's smart, talented, protective, sweet and so caring. She's actually a girl that a guy would dream of. I loved her so much that time. But we both changed. She's becoming unproductive day by day. And I'm also getting tired. Maybe because we're a perfect couple I guess, that's what people are saying. But aside from getting tired, there's also 1 reason. 1 fucking reason why I let that very special person go. Our parents became enemies in business. She knows nothing about that. My dad knew anything between us, he supported us so much but after our parents became enemies, he said na makipag break na ko kay Cams. Of course I refused. Naging cold ako sa kanya that time. Then her dad called me saying na kapag di daw ako nakipag break sa anak niya, he'll never make Cams decide for herself. And I don't want him controlling his own daughter so I let her go. I knew him. Kapag ayaw ni tito, gagawin niya lahat makuha lang gusto niya. So I let her go. Alam mo yun, I can fight for us but I can't afford seeing her suffer. I choose to let her go for her to have her own freedom, even it's breaking my heart that I need to control myself for her not to be controlled by others. And I think I've chosen the right decision. Look at her now, even though her heart is not yet totally free from the past, she can freely do something. And me, don't worry about me best friend, I'm okay now. Thank you." He smiled then hugged me. Pinatong ko yung baba ko sa balikat niya.
