Love story ended in a tragedy
  Part 1

"I think, I'm falling hard and deep. Yung mga tingin n'yang nakakatunaw!" Eto na naman tayo,
Karidad and her love stories.

"You really like that man you're talking about huh? " Tanong ko sakanya, she nodded with a smile on her face. "Paano ka namin tutulungan kung pangalan lang ang alam namin? We should see his face or what. "

"Ralda, kahit hindi na natin tignan o ano, we're here to support Karidad no matter what. We're friends, remember?" Lihanna said, point taken alright.

I sighed, "okay, what are your plans? "

"I want him to notice me, " Karidad then batting her eyelashes.

My mind is trying to analyze the situation, "O-Okay, but how? "

           
Lihanna have us a rakish smile, "I have one. "

Oh no, guide us please. I don't want to embarrass myself.

______________

We're currently standing here at that's Quorcan favorite placa according to Karidad. She's really serious. Nice, kamakailan lang ay may tatlo s'yang crush na basketball player tapos lima sa chess club and etc..

"So, ready? You'll give this to him Karidad. " Lihanna instructed. I stared at them, bored. Wala naman akong maitutulong dito. "And because Esmeralda is a good club officer, she will take charge of everything. Kunwari mapapadaan s'ya tapos may iuutos sa inyong dalawa ng crush mo." Halos magsuka ako sa sinabi n'ya, bakit ako?

"What?! " I shouted.

"Please Esmerelda, just this one!" Karidad pleaded, ano pa bang magagawa ko?

Fantastic, napaka supportive naming kaibigan yehey! Note the sarcasm. Makikipag argumento pa sana ako nang mapadaan ang isang lalaki, nagmamadaling nag ayos si Karidad bagamat nakatalikod ito at hindi ko makita ang mukha sumakay nalang ako sa plano nila.

"Saan ako pupwesto? " I asked Lihanna, the mastermind. She then pointed the direction kung saan ako kuno susulpot.

On my peripheral vision, I saw Karidad heading at that Quorcan's direction. Nakaupo ito at pabebe namang naglalakad si Karidad then she handed her lunch box on that man.

Wow, lakas maka korean drama.

"Ahm, Hi Quorcan, para sayo. " and she gave the box, "Niluto ko 'yan " what? I made that! "May crush kasi ako sayo. " Wow, woman what a straightforward confession.

In my place, I can see that the man is smiling. Nakita ko ang senyas ni Lihanna and I sighed.

Lumakad ako sa gawi nila, acting like a strict officer when I'm not, without looking at them cause obviously I'm nor really interested, "You two! Clean this place." I instructed at them, earning a giggles.

Akala ko ba plano 'to?

"Wala talagang patawad, hindi uso ang lord patawad sayo. " Nanalaki ang mga mata ko. That voice, is damn familiar.

Parang robot akong tumingin sa lalaking gusto ni Karidad, and fuck siya nga. The guy who bump me yesterday.

I frozed couldn't construct even a sentence, ramdam ko ang pagsiko ni Karidad, thank god because that revive me from my flying thoughts. "No question! Clean this place! " and I turned my back on them as I walk.

Damn heart, why are you beating so fast?

______________

Days past like a blur, basta umiwas ako. I feel unsafe when I'm seeing him. Hindi maganda 'to.

Our teacher gave us future sheet, what a weird name. There are different questions personal or not. I'm almost done, yung future and dream profession nalang.

I want to be Aquanauts hindi ito alam ng iba, Aquanauts are like Astronauts but they differ from the sense that aquanauts set out to discover the underseas with the root word Aqua.

But, I don't think I can do it, masyadong komplikado ang buhay ko para magawa ang mga gusto. When I finished college, I'll work under our company who manage the Family Tradition. Because I'm the unica iha of Montemoriados family, that made me the Heirness.

"Esmeralda! " Sigaw ng kung sino kaya napalingon ako, it was Lihanna together with Karidad who's now crying... crying?

I narrowed my eyes on hair, she look like mess, "Why are you crying? " I asked her worriedly.

"Quorcan dump me! " Then she glared at me like I was the one at fault. "Because of you! Nag effort ako pero ikaw ang gusto n'ya! I envy you, wala kang ginagawa. Subsob ka sa pag aaral, you're boring but why the hell he likes you?! " She blurted,  si Lihanna ay hindi alam kung ano ang gagawin hihimasin ba ang likod ni Karidad o pupuntahan ako.

Damn, bakit ako ang nasisisi? Wala akong ginagawa like she said!

"So why are you blaming me? " I asked her calmly, walang magagawa kung parehas kaming mainit ang ulo.

Don't add fuel on the raging fire.

"I don't know. I'm sorry pero lalayo muna ako. " Then she walked away, that's it.

"I'm okay. " Lihanna looked torned so I signal her to see Karidad.

I can manage alone.. Yeah, alone.

February 14
Hearts Day

One month past, malapit na kaming mag graduate but me and Karidad are not in good terms.

I hate it when someone is mad at me when I couldn't get their point. Hindi ko alam kung sasabihan ko ba s'yang mababaw o insecure? Afterall she's my friend. Bahala na.

"Nagtatago ka na naman. " Asked by the man. I sighed, bakit s'ya nandito?

I looked up at him from the book I had been reading out loud, the breeze from outside flipping the window curtains softly, fresh air. "Ano na namang kailangan mo? You dump my friend and told her you like me. Are you out of your mind? Pwede mong sabihing hindi ka interesado sakanya, pero sana lang hindi mo na ako dinamay. "

"I'm sorry, " my eyebrow shut upward.

"Sorry? My friend and I are not okay. Hindi ako mapagpatawad okay, you just did a huge damage. Dinamay mo pa ako. "

He held his nape, looking away. Drama nito? " I'm actually planning to confess my feelings pero hindi pa nga ako nagsisimula galit ka na agad. Basted na ba ako? " my mind froze, it was unexpected. I thought it was excuse to shush Karidad away.

I want to embrace this feeling, Can I?

And that day, I decided to be selfish.
