I Fell For The Bitter Girl

021 || Our Little Secret

Lany's P.O.V

Andito kami ngayon sa rooftop ng bahay nila Lilac, nakatambay at hinihintay na dumating sila Andre at Lync dala yung pagkain namin.

I'm still stuck with last night. Well, hindi ko parin matanggal sa isip ko ang ginawa ni Chris. He hugged me, to the point na hindi na ako makahinga. I don't understand what he did, and why he did it. I have no idea what's going on with him, and I don't care enough to find out.

And then andiyan din yung fact na Kean called me "HIS GIRL". Like hello? That's a big deal for me. I mean I know he was just trying to protect me and all that, pero hindi ko lang kinaya. I don't even know why it's a big deal, but it just is. That's the thing that's mostly bugging me from everything na nangyari kagabi. I keep thinking about it.

"Girl, nakikinig ka ba sakin?" Shaira shouting at me. See what I mean? Hindi ko parin maialis sa isip ko lahat ng kagabi. I need to process it all. I haven't even told the girls anything yet.

"Huh? I'm sorry, ano 'yung sinasabi mo?" I said, trying to be more focused.

"Why are you so distracted, girl? " Sabi ni Jean.

"Hindi ka pa nagkwento samin about what happened with Kean last night." Excited naman na sabi ni Lilac. Di ko pinansin yung tanong tsaka ako humarap kay Shaira.

"What were we talking about again?" sabi ko nalang as an answer.

"Well, pinag-uusapan namin yung hitsura ni Reya nung hindi niya mahanap kagabi sa Grand Party niya yung sarili niyang boyfriend." Natatawang sabi ni Shaira.

"Hindi lang yun, napansin ko na kinausap niya si Kean nung tumayo siya para hanapin ka." sabi ni Jean na pabulong para kami lang nakakarinig. Na-curious ako sa sinabi ni Jean. Nilapitan ni Reya si Kean? Well hindi ako magtataka. That's Reya after all.

"Ang nakakatawa doon hindi siya pinansin ni Kean, iniwan din sa kaagad tsaka ka hinanap. You should've seen her face." sabi ni Lilac at sabay sabay silang natawa. Natawa ako ng mahina, pero the truth is, I'm flattered.

Umalis siya sa party, where siya ang honored guest ni Reya,  just to find me, save me from Chris and take somewhere I could be more comfortable. I felt na nag-init pisngi ko sa iniisip ko. Kean cares about me, he's so kind to me. No Lany, not again. We can't have another heart break.

"So girl, baka naman gusto mong magkwento diyan?" sabi ni Jean.

"Yeah give us details!" Tili naman netong si Lilac. Tahimik lang si Shaira. I think she's trying to read me. Hindi pwedeng malaman ni Shaira ang ginawa ni Chris. Inisip kong mabuti ang sasabihin ko, at the same time composing myself para hindi makahalata si Shaira.

Shaira is my best friend since elementary, solid kami, We met Lilac and Jean in our first years of highschool. She's been by my side through thick and thin, that's why ang dali para sakanya to read me. Malalaman niya agad kung may tinatago ako just by looking at me and observing me.

"Well I went out sa isang private pool malapit sa party hall to get some fresh air. And then biglang dumating si Kean asking me why I was there." Dahan dahan kong sinabi. I don't want to make a mistake at masabi na nag-usap kami ni Chris and he even hugged me.

"And.....?" sabi ni Shaira ng seryoso.

"Well nung bumalik kami ng party hall, he asked me if I felt uncomfortable at Reya's party. I nodded so he asked me if I wanted to get out of that place." I casually said.

Tumili naman itong si Lilac at Jean, si Shai naman nakatingin lang sakin. I know she's trying to figure out what I might be hiding kaya I continue.
