Chapter 2

Chapter 2: the decision

[pupunta ka naman diba?] kausap ko ngayon si Chloe sa phone.

"Bakit ba parang ang laking kawalan kapag hindi ako um-attend?" Totoo naman kasi, silang dalawa ni Kief pinipilit akong pumunta.

[hindi naman, mga slight lang,] hindi naman pero slight lang? Ano 'yon?

"Two palang ngayon, I'll check my sched, baka may gagawin nga 'ko sa araw na 'yon," pagpapaliwanag ko.

[sasama si Lana, ikaw lang kulang kapag hindi ka pumunta,] aniya.

"Anong ako lang? Sigurado marami rin hindi makapupunta roon,"

[lahat sila aattend, wala ka kasi sa GC kaya ayan tuloy,]

"Pake ko sa GC na 'yon, bahala si Pauline roon," nakakainis, ang laki ata talaga ng pagseselos niya sa 'kin??

Si Pauline, classmate ko dati noong highschool. President rin ng student council kaya siguro siya ang nag-aayos ng reunion na 'to ng buong batch namin.

[wow ha? Basta pumunta ka na please?] pagmamakaawa niya.

"Nakakainis, I'll text back o kaya I'll call back, I'll look at my sched first, bye." I ended the call.

Wala naman talaga akong ganap that day. I'm just scared to attend. I'm just afraid to see the person who broke me years ago.

I'm afraid to see the person I used to love. But what I'm more afraid of, is that maybe my love for him never died.

I'm scared that if I saw him again, I'll loose my self again, loving him.

I can't afford to loose my self again. It took me a long time and a long process to find my self again.

Nag-scroll nalang ako sa IG para naman mawala nalang 'tong iniisip ko.

I looked at some stories of my friends.

I came across Ina's story. It was a picture of the court, empty, with the caption saying 'justice should always be served'

She might've won her on going case already. We haven't even met yet, ever since I got back from New York. She was so busy that we can't meet. I just hope before I go back to US I'll get to meet her.

@kiefernandez messaged you

Ano ulit gusto nitong lalaking 'to? Wala ba 'tong magawa?

From: kiefernandez

Uy master! Bakit ka online sa IG?

Really? O my god, anong nakain nito?

Nag-tipa ako kaagad.
