You told me I was a beautiful soul that fixed you. However we didn't know what will happen next.
*Ring ring*
I tiredly pick up my phone as I am really sleepy pa. " Who the flap is calling me this time?! Agh!" i put my phone at my ears and "Hello? Who are you?" ang ingay sa other side line ah. "Helloooo???" I sit up kasi naiinis ako, napakunot noo ako. Tawag tawag?? Di naman sumagot? Kainis natulog pa nga yung tao- "Via? Still there?? I mean sorry ito kasi si Ma-- ano bah!! May kausap ako oh ang clingy mo..." Pabebe always tubg si Zheck hays. I facepalm with her pabebe mode, and immediately realize. Ah so meron siya ila Zheck? Hmmm.. my heart is thumping slowly but i feel it cracked. "Sino kausap mo babe? Ibang lalaki yan noh?" i heard a deep voice but so soothing for me.
How i really miss that voice.
"Hindi si Avi-" i quickly hanged up the phone without saying anything.
Humiga ako at nakatulala sa ceiling. Avialenna wala kang ginawang masama, you're so humble Avia. Ginawa mo lang kung ano ang tama okey?
I smiled realizing na ginawa ko kung ano ang tama, kung ano dapat gawin para di masira ang pagkaibigan namin ni Zheckenna.
"Don't hurt her my love, as what i did to you." Di ko namalayan na tumulo na pala ang mga luha ko sa pagkasabi ko nun. At diko namalayan na nakatulog nako dahil sa pag iyak."I promised you that i will be a good man for you.." he cried infront of me while saying many words to make me stay.. to stay for him.. for us...
"I'm sorry ayoko na talaga... Pagod na pagod nako thinking na..." I looked away not wanting tumingin sa mga maganda niyang mata. Mga mata niya na hindi na sakin tititig, mga mata na kumikislap sa tuwing napasaya ko siya o napasaya niya ko... He put his arms around me and push him lightly. "Babe... I love you so much..." he cupped my cheeks and he sob *crack* i can't take this anymore, na sa tuwing nasasaktan siya nasasaktan din ako, I'm really sorry but i have to do this.
"But i don't love you..." I removed his palms that held my cheeks. "What?" he ask with his deep voice. I looked up to him and said " sorry but..." it broke my heart when i said the next words...
"Go find another lady... H-hindi tayo p-pwede.."
Napagising ako sa naging panaginip ko, ano ba yung panaginip ko? I held my chest, it's beating so fast gosh! "I should take a wash" i got up at kinuha ko towel ko.
As i finished washing my face someone is calling me. And i remember the night that Zheck is calling me with her lover na ang likot likot. I smiled at that, but either way it broke my heart. I shake my head ridding the thoughts.
*Ring ring*
I flinch when my phone rang again. I immediately get my phone at sinagit ko without looking sa caller's ID. "Hello? Ano kailangan mo?" i think my tone sounds too harsh. "Ang harsh mo naman beh" i widened my eyes and apologize "oh sorry Lean-- i mean Leana, hehe ano yun??" I furrowed my brows. "Wala ng paligoy ligoy pa, punta ka sa coffee shop na paborito mong puntahan kasi may meeting diba? And be quick kasi kanina oa kami dito ikaw nalang kulang... Kaya mo naman in 20 mins? Total di naman masyado kalayo---" i cut him off with "what" di pako nakaligo at ba't di nila sinavi sakin tu kahapon nong nandito pa sila? "Leana... Mga 30 mins okey lang ba? Kasi---" he cut me off again "Just be quick okey? And someone is here, the one you got away" he hanged up immediately. Napatulala ako sa sinabi niya sa last.
The one you got away?
