Past

"RAZE! RAZE IS HERE EVERYONE!"

Agad na sumalubong saakin sila Speed. Speed is grinning from ear to ear as he see Aaron beside me.

"I bring someone with me. I hope it's fine, Speed?"

"Aaron Turner. Of course!"nakipaghandshake si Speed kay Aaron and they seems like they know each other for a long time.

"Madalas kaming tumambay ni Turner noong mawala ka bigla. And honestly alam ko din kung nasan ka these past 2 years."Speed try to laugh as if he's gonna get away with his confession.

"The fuck, Speed? All this time you knew Raze whereabouts?"hindi makapaniwalang tanong ni Eron.

"Akala ko magkakaibigan tayo dito? Bakit hindi mo sinabi, Speed?"tanong naman ni Aries.

"Badtrip kasi ako kay Greg nun. Gusto ko siyang mabaliw kakahanap kay Raze."tumatawang sagot ni Speed at nagpeace sign pa sa mga kaibigan. Sila Aries at Eron naman kulang na lang ay bugbugin nila si Speed.

"But I wonder if Greg found Raze. I mean I found her.  Kaya hindi impossibleng nahanap din siya ni Greg."napapaisip na singit ni Aaron.

Natigil ang tatlo at napatingin kay Aaron bago nalipat ang tingin kay Greg, may hawak itong bote ng alak. Nag-iwas ito ng tingin saamin.

Napalunok siya."I found her."He told, painfully.

"Oh? All this time you knew where is she but you never talk to her to get her back?"Eron asked curiously.

Greg lick the side of his lips before he looked down.

"She's happy there."he smiled. But it didn't even reach his eyes like how it used to.

I am trying to ignore what I've noticed since I'm back. Greg seems a litte off like he's not the Greg I used to know.

Gregory back there is a playful one. He loves playing around.

But the Gregory in front of me, he looks lifeless.

"Kaya pala madalas kang wala dito kasi nandoon ka kung nasan si Raze."tila may napagtantong deklara ni Speed.

"I fucking knew it! Alam kong hindi mo magagawa iyon kay Raze. You lov---"

"Stop it right there, Eron. I'm sorry but I don't want to talk about the past. Kung ito lang ang pag-uusapan natin I'm sorry but I'm leaving."I bite my lips unconsciously.

Naramdaman ko naman ang marahang pagtapik sa balikat ko ni Aaron.

Wala ng suot na cast ang kabilang braso niya he can freely move.

"I'm sorry I started it."he said shyly.

Bumuga ako ng hangin bago napailing.

"I'm sorry guys. I appreciate this. But I'm afraid I can't act and talk about what happened in the past."I smiled apologetically."Excuse me. I'll just get a drink."

"Samahan na kita!"Speed smiled at me.

"I always admire you, Raze."sinulyapan ko si Speed. He handed me a drink."I thought myself that Gregory is a lucky bastard and an asshole for letting you go."

"It's actually my fault so I'm not really blaming Greg."I shooked my head slowly, I drunk the bottle I'm holding."I should have known Greg specially his reputation."I chuckled.

"You know I hate Greg for what he did to you but I'm also still shipping the two of you."

"Silly. Greg and I...we're just now a past. What we had it's all in the past."
