Something Special (Dela Cruz Cousins Series #1)

Chapter 05

Chapter 5

Missing.

As I watch him walk away, I saw a red balloon flying up in the sky.

Will I be like that balloon? Freely roaming and doing something i want? What is my purpose in this world anyway.

Matagal ko itong sinundan ng tingin, hanggang sa mawala ito sa paningin ko ay nanatili akong nakatingin sa langit.

Nanatili akong nakatingin sa langit kahit na wala namang especial dito.

I then unconsciously sat on the bench near me. Naputol ang pag-iisip ko nang marinig ang bell, na sinasabing kailangan ng tumuloy sa klase.

Probably by now they're already arguing and fighting. For me siguro, yung tampo ko kay Kio is not that serious, but yung kay Dy?
It's pretty out of the picture. I'm cool with him na. Tampo lang siguro talaga ako.

I sometimes can't understand those two. Kulang na nga lang ay magiging manghuhula na ako kakaisip ng kung anong nasa isip nila.

She can forgive naman na Kio e, it's just a little misunderstanding. Hindi ko mawari kung ano ba talaga ang point ng galit ni Candy kay Kio. Is it about our friendship na or something else? I want to interfere but i can't, it's about them na.

These past few months rin kasi, pansin ko iba na ang pakikitungo ni Candy kay Kio. I can see it. Does she love him? She has feelings for him? Is yes, then, she's fucked up.

Sa tagal ng pagkakaibigan namin ay may lihim na pagtingin siya kay Kio? Matagal na kaya? How come she hid it for months, rather years?

Kahit naman dati pansin ko rin, but i didn't care. I was neutral. We we're young, how should I know?

And it seems, Kio doesn't know. For him, he's probably frustrated and there's a lot of things coming inside his head.

Well.... Ganon rin siguro mararamdaman ko.
I'll be so frustrated at him/her.

Hays. Kaya pala these past few days, Candy was gloomy. She was sad. Remember when she slept on my house. Muohang malungkot, dinahilan pa yung mark.

Anyways, i hope they can figure things out.

Naputol ako sa pag-iisip ng biglang nagring ang bell ng school, sign na i should head back inside, to well, obviously, study. Duh?

-----------------------------------------------------------

After class, i never seen or heard of Candy again. It seemed she ditched class. Well, i haven't seen her kasi sa class so siguro nagcut class. I haven't seen Kio too. Don't tell me they ditched together?!

And hindi man lang ako sinama? Charot.

Syempre nag-usap yung dalawa. Ang tanga naman Lia.

Anyways, I'm currently on my room. Ang bilis 'no. Nasa bahay agad ako. Dumeretso kasi ako sa bahay agad. Hindi na ako like nagstop kung saan or pumunta kung saan.

Alam ko kasi na maya maya andyan na si Candy, drunk. Syempre naglasing yun. Magtaka ka pa.

Speaking of the devil, here she goes ringing on the doorbell.

I hurriedly ran down the stairs to open the door. Ang akala ko si Candy ang nasa pinto, to my surprise, i saw Lucas. What the fuck.

The nerve of hin to come at my house, in the middle of the night.
