Chris's POV

"Cause, I like her. I like Sharon, a lot." My guts was right, this guy likes Sharon, I clinched my fist after hearing what he just said. "But, I can't have her. You know what, I'm very jealous of you, no I envy you. The way she talks about you, you really sounded so special to her. Doon palang, I said to myself that I couldn't replace you. I'll make things clear to you Chris, magkaibigan lang talaga kami ni Sharon and it hurts me to say this but the person she love and still loves is you." He made toss sa dalawang dala niyang canned bear. "Cheers. Here, you can have it." and he handed me the canned beer at umalis na.

She still loves me, then bakit. Why is she holding back? If that's the case I'll make a big move, ako na talaga ang lalapit sa'yo Sha.

I woke up dahil sa sinag ng araw. What the hell happened last night? Arggh.. my head, don't tell me nalasing ako kagabi. Wait nahatid ko ba si Sharon kagabi? Sh*t! Wala akong maalala.

I hurriedly went downstairs and saw everyone having their breakfast.

"Finally, gising ka na. Have some breakfast." Jerrick offered.

Umupo ako sa bakanteng upuan at uminom ng tubig. "What the hell happened last night?" I asked.

"You don't remember?"

"Takte Jay, wala talaga akong maalala."

"You simply got drunk, ano pa bang bago." Gab exclaimed.

"How about Sharon, hinatid ko siya last night, right?"

"Seryoso ka, wala ka talagang maalala?"

"Claire, wala talaga? Tell me, hinatid ko siya di ba?"

"Nope, hindi mo siya nahatid kagabi. Kami ni Jerrick ang naghatid sa kanila ni Kier John kagabi." Claire said.

"My ghadd... bakit ba ako nagpakalasing kagabi?"

"Alam mo last night, you're having a blast. May video pa nga ako ehh..."

"Huh? What do you mean Gab?"

"Too bad hindi mo na maalala, but that's okay may video naman ako."

"Don't tell me may kagag*han akong ginawa kagabi."

"Well, just kept shouting na you really need to celebrate, ganun pala talaga sa feeling na makagraduate ka na. Can't wait na maexperience ang ganung feeling. Alam naming wild ka and all kapag lasing, but may ilalala pa pala yun. At tsaka gusto mo talagang magswimming kagabi." she immediately laugh out loud. "Para ka pa ngang bata na nagpumilit talagang magswimming kasi hindi ka namin pinayagan. Last night was really priceless, and glad to have a full video of last night.

"You better delete that video Gab."

"Come on, hindi ko naman ipopost yun. Pang-remembrance lang."

"Ewan ko ba sa'yo, pasalamat ka masakit ulo ko na ayaw kong mawaste ang energy ko at makipag-argue."

"By the way Chris, I already told Sha about our 2 day unwinding and she said yes. And one more thing, Kier John's going with us."

Okay na sana, bakit sasama pa yung kupal na yun.

Kier John's POV

The whole barkada of Sharon are putting their stuffs inside the car trunk when we arrive, kaya we did the same, we put our stuff inside the trunk.

"All set? Wala na bang nakalimutan?" Jerrick asked. "Okay, let's go." and we all went inside na.

The whole trip was fun, we all share some fun conversations, even Jerrick who is driving is nakikisali sa mga pinag-uusapan namin.

"So how did you met Sharon, Kier John?" the girl Gab, asked me.

"Aahh... we met at the hospital."

"Hospital? Out of all places sa hospital talaga? What would be Sharon doing sa hospital?"

"Aahh.. that's because Sha..." I couldn't continue what I was about to say 'cause Claire cut me off.

"Ano ka ba Gab, doctor kaya ang Kuya ni Sha, si Kuya Jeff."

"Aahh.. oo nga pala. So anong ginagawa mo sa hospital Kier John?"

"Ahmm... I was preparing for my laser eye surgery. I was suffering from astigmatism."

"Pero okay ka na ngayon di ba?"

"Yup, never been better."

"Glad to hear that. So, since nagkasama talaga kayo ni Sharon sa States we thank you for being by her side sa times na wala kami."

"No worries, actually I should be the one who should be thanking her. She made me trust the operation and to have faith that it'll be successful. And thank God, it did."

"Glad to hear that. Alam mo you're cool. From now on part ka na ng barkada ahhh... kaya don't be awkward towards us. Isipin mo nalang na we're all different versions of Sharon, ganern."

We all laughed sa sinabi ni Gab, she's cool.

"That'll be weird, pero sige, I'll think of it that way."

After a while everyone went silent it seems like nakatulog na sila. I notice that Sharon, right next to me is swaying. I was about to place her head over my shoulder nang maunahan ako ni Chris. I just wear my headphones at went to sleep na rin like the others.

***

We arrive na sa beach house ng Lolo ni Chris. Woahh, the seabreeze feels nice. Sha and I are feeling the seabreeze together dito sa may pantalan. I'm really thankful for meeting her.

Separate yung rooms ng boys at girls. After we put our stuffs next to our respective beds ay we all went outside and took a swim, sumunod naman ang mga girls.

In a short period of time I feel comfortable with them, I never really had friends my whole life, not until I met Sha. She was my very first friend.

***

Night came, after dinner we all went to bed since all of us are tired from the trip and all the  swimming we had earlier, plus we have the whole day tomorrow. So we'll enjoy tomorrow till our hearts content.

Sharon's POV

I got up early to witness the sunrise. Any minute now, my eyes was mesmerize when the sun starts to rise. I'll always remember this scenery.

"Figured out na you'll be up first."

I look at Chris and smiled at him. "I'm close to fullfill my bucket list." hindi ko na napigilan ang maiyak.

"Wait, why are you crying?" he asked in a panicked tone. He quickly wiped my tears.

"Sorry, I'm just happy kaya naiyak ako. Tears of joy lang 'to."
