JUST MAYBE (UNDER REVISION)

CHAPTER 6

"OHMYGOSH!"

Napapitlag si Eerina sa biglaang pagsigaw ni Irish. She glared at her. She's busy thinking about what will she do next para mapansin ni Knight. It's been week since she stop bothering him. Namimiss na nya si Knight. Tapos itong katabi nya ay bigla bigla na lang sisigaw.

"Bakit ba sumisigaw ka dyan?" She's still glaring at Irish who's still looking at her phone.

"Look! The twins are coming back." Napatingin sya sa phone nito at nanlaki ang mata nya.

From: Bitchy Zai

We're going home for good bitches. Missya guys muwah!

That's the text message she just read. Oh no! This is disaster. Her bitch cousins are going home. Nagkatinginan sila ni Irish at tumawa. Damn. Masaya to.

"Come on. Let's tell them." she can help but to laugh.

She can't wait to see the others reaction. She's smiling from ear to ear but it's suddenly faded when she saw who's coming. Napaiwas sya ng tingin. Her heart is in pain again seeing the two looking and smiling to each other. Naramdaman nyang hinawakan sya sa kamay ni Irish. She looks at her and smile telling that she's fine but she's really not.

"Should I stop chasing him? He looks so happy with her." she whispered and a tear fell.

Iniisip pa lang nya na ito nga ang mahal ni Knight parang pinilipit na agad ang puso nya. Ganun ba kaayaw sa kanya ni Knight at nahulog ito sa iba? Maybe they're right. Kahit gaano pa katagal ang pinagsamahan nyo ng taong mahal mo kung hindi ka talaga nya kayang mahalin mahuhulog at mahuhulog ito sa iba. Maybe, just maybe this is the time for her to stop chasing him. She can't make him fall for her whatever she does and it's hurt. Hindi siguro sapat na mahal mo lang ang isang tao kahit na anong effort ang gawin mo kung talagang ayaw sayo wala ring kwenta.

I should never fell in love with him in the first place. Never ever love someone you know who can't love you back. Never ever fell in love with your bestfriend because it sucks.

TAHIMIK na kumakain sa canteen si Eerina. Malalim ang iniisip habang nakatulala sa malayo. She's alone. All her friends have class. She sighed. Iniisip nya kung talagang titigilan na nya si Knight dahil sobrang nasasaktan na sya. Pero mahal mo sya diba? Bulong ng puso nya. Nasasaktan kana kaya dapat tumigil kana. Bulong naman ng isip nya. Naistress na napahawak sya sa ulo nya.

"Argh. I can't decide." bulong nya sa sarili nya.

Nagulat sya ng biglang may nadapa sa gilid nya. Natapon ang mga dala nitong pagkain. Nanlalaki ang mata nya ng makitang si Freya ito. Lumapit sya rito.

"Hey. You okay? Let me help you."

Hahawakan na sana nya ito para makatayo ng biglang dumating si Knight na humahangos.

"What the hell did you do to her?!" biglang sigaw nito sa kanya.

"What?" halos pabulong nyang tanong. Masama ang tingin nito sa kanya pero agad ding binawi at dinaluhan agad si Freya.

"Ohmygod! Don't tell me you're thinking that it was my fault kaya sya nadapa?" hindi sya makapaniwalang napatingin kay Knight.

"Bakit? Hindi ba?" Malamig na sabi nito sa kanya.

"Knight. I was going to help your girl na makatayo."

"Stop pretending. Alam kong galit ka sa kanya." nanggigil na sabi nito. Hindi sya makapaniwala.
