Together Forever

CHAPTER one

"Ma'am please let me join the volleyball league." I pleaded.

" Okay, since I know you can do it, I will allow you. But please, know your responsibilities as a editor in chief." I smiled widely and thanked her.

I thanked ms. Cruz and then I go back to our classroom. I didn't expect that she'll allow me, 'cause last year she didn't allow me.

When I'm already sitting, I immediately get my phone and chatted my MU on RPW.

To: Jaden Stroam
Hey, pinayagan ako ng coach ko magjoin sa volleyball league.

I turned off my phone ' cause our teacher came.

By the way, I'm Hasmin Dela Vega, I'm 15 years old and I'm studying at Bonifacio high school and I'm at grade 10.

I have an RP account and I have someone special in there and he is Jaden Stroam. But the sad thing is he have a girlfriend and yes, I'm his third party.

*****

Our class is already done but I can't go home yet because we need to make our school news paper about the buwan ng wika   happened last week.

"Hasmin, saan ka kakain?" My friend, Radelyn asked me.

"Uhm, Imma eat at the canteen nalang siguro." sagot ko naman sakanya.

"Wag na don 'te! Sa tapsilugan nalang tayo kumain!" sabi naman nya sabay hatak sakin.

"Tss, fineeee! Wag mo na ko hilain baka mabali pa buto ko!" sabi ko sakanya at nagkunyari pa kong naiinis.

"HAHAHAHAHAHA! May buto ka pala? Kala ko puro taba ka lang!" binatukan ko naman sya dahil sa sinabi nya. Inaasar nya kong ganon dahil chubby ako.

"Ay wow! Hindi ka ba mataba?" sagot ko naman sakanya.

Nang makarating na kami sa tapsilugan, nagorder agad kami dahil we need to be back in our school at exactly 4:20pm. It's already 4:00pm nang dumating ang order namin.

While we're eating biglang nagsalita si Radelyn. "Hasmin, kamusta kayo ni Jaden?"

Tumikhim muna ako bago sumagot, "We're fine naman." but it's a lie, I'm good at pretending.

"Nakipagbreak na ba sya sa girlfriend nya?" she asked.

"Hmm, not yet. Natatakot daw syang masaktan yung tao." sabi ko sabay subo ng pagkain.

"Kaya okay lang kahit ikaw yung masaktan?" tanong nya ulit.

"Shut up." hindi ko na makayanan ang pag tatanong nya kaya naman binilisan ko na ang pagkain at ganun din naman sya.

Nakabalik kami sa school at exactly 4:20pm, she already said sorry to me and me to her.

6:00 pm and we're already done, we're going to publish this tomorrow.

Palabas na sana ako ng school ng biglang may tumawag sakin, "Hasmin!" nilingon ko sya at nakita ko si Trixy.

"Oh bakit?" tanong ko sakanya.

"Bukas daw dapat kasama ka na sa training ng volleyball." I nodded and nagpaalam na akong aalis.

While I'm on my way home someone suddenly called me. I looked at the screen and it was Jaden, I immediately answered his call.

*phone call

Jaden: Hey, where are you?
Hasmin: On my way home.
Jaden: May kasama ka ba?
Hasmin: Wala eh, nagmilktea pa sila.
Jaden: I wish I was there para may kasabay ka.
Hasmin: Aww thanks.
Jaden: Thalia, I miss you so much.
Hasmin: I miss you too. Btw, have you read my chat?
Jaden: Ha? Wala ka namang chat sakin.
Hasmin: Ah, baka dinelete nanaman ng girlfriend mo. Kailan mo ba kasi sasabihin sakanya? Hanggang kailan mo ba ko ipapakilala sakanya bilang BUNSO mo?
Jaden: Thalia naman, alam mo namang mahirap pa yung sitwasyon.
Hasmin: Yeah right, I'm sorry. Imma drop this call na.

*end call

Hindi ko na sya hinintay magsalita, naramdaman kong tumulo ang luha ko kaya agad ko itong pinunasan.

*****

Nang makarating ako sa apartment ko, agad akong dumiretso sa kwarto ko. Magisa lang akong nakatira dito, mayroon ako kasambahay pero pumupunta lang sya dito every 6:00 am hanggang 6:00 pm.

Ulila na 'ko dahil namatay sa car accident ang parents ko, mayroon silang iniwanan sa akin na negosyo. Pero mapupunta lang yun sakin pag nag 18 years old na ako, kaya si Uncle Rey muna yung nagmamanage non at binibigay sakin yung pera.

Nagpalit ako ng damit at bumaba na ko sa kusina, tinignan ko yung nakatakip at nakita ko yung niluto ni manang kaya naman agad na rin akong kumain.

*****

Nang matapos akong kumain, hinugasan ko na yung kinainan ko at umakyat sa kwarto. Humiga ako sa kama ko at binuksan yung cellphone ko.

Wala naman masyadong nagchachat sa RA (real account) ko, puro group chat about sa school, tapos yung dalawa kong group of friends.

Kaya inonline ko na yung RPA (role play account) ko, merong chat dun si Jaden kaya naman agad ko iyong binuksan.

From: Jaden Stroam

Thalia, I know this is hard for you. But please, don't be impatient. This is hard for me too, I don't want to hurt the both of you. Just stick with my promises, you're the one that I love. I promise that I'll break up with her as soon as possible. Iloveyou!

To: Jaden Stroam

I'm sorry, I become impatient again. I believe in you! Iloveyoutoo!

Nagscroll ako sa facebook and I saw Kharlie tagged him in a post that has caption " 'Til death do us part." and Jaden commented Iloveyou on it.

It breaks me, he can't even tag me in sweet post. Ang hirap palang maging sidechick lang, lagi ka lang anino. Hindi ka maipakilala bilang girlfriend. Laging ang pakilala nya sakin, ay baby sister nya.

Lagi akong inaaway ni Kharlie dahil nagseselos sya sakin, gusto nyang layuan ako ni Jaden but hindi pumapayag si Jaden dahil mahal nya daw ako as baby sister nya.

Tuminog ang messenger ko senyales na may nagchat, I thought it's Jaden. But it was Steve.

From: Steve Dwight

Hey, how are you?

I was about to reply but Jaden chatted me so I opened his message.

From: Jaden Stroam

Don't ever reply to your ex, I'm warning you Thalia.

To: Jaden Stroam

Whyyyy?

From: Jaden Stroam

I'm freakin' jealous!

To: Jaden Stroam

HAHAHAHAHAHA! Seloso!

From: Jaden Stroam

Tawag ako.

Hindi pa man ako nakakareply pero tumawag na sya.

Nakatulog nalang ako ng kinakantahan nya ko, at nakatulog ako ng may ngiti sa labi ko.
