The Man I Can't Reach (COMPLETED)

Chapter 42

"Thylane, gano'n ba talaga dapat 'yung gawin ko?"

"Yes, girl. If you don't want him to find out everything, then you should take my advice."

Wala sa sarili akong pabagsak na umupo. I'm now staying at the Secret House while talking to Thylane. Mabuti walang tao rito dahil ayaw kong marinig ng kung sino ang usapan namin ni Thylane. I even locked the door, just to be sure.

"That's so rude. Ayaw ko namang tarayan 'yung tao dahil hindi ako mataray..."

"You're not? Wow! Says the one who slapped me just because I ruined her so-called special cupcake. I can't believe you, Giziel!" She's breathing heavily while I pouted.

Kailangan ba niyang sabihin ang tungkol sa bagay na 'yon? She deserves it by the way. Childish mang pakinggan, pero kasalanan niya 'yon. Yuno and I was having a baking contest that time but Thylane ruined it as if its nothing. Dahil sa ginawa niya ay natalo ako ni Yuno.

"Shut it. Ayaw kong pag-usapan ang tungkol sa bagay na 'yan. Past is past. Move on ka na," I rubbed my temple while thinking how to escape this thing.

"Mag-move on ka na rin, Giziel. Try dating someone there. I know you can find a hot guy in Philippines. Or, why don't you date Yami? Based on his name, I think he's really Yummy." She even emphasized the word Yummy.

I knotted my forehead in disbelief. Yami is the leader of Zeravigne's Carol and that band is famous, internationally. I can say, they're all handsome but they're not my type.

"Do you think I'm gonna buy that piece of cake?" Kunot noong tanong ko.

Thylane may be a 22-year old woman, she's still full of nonsense in her mind. You should never listen to her words. Good combination sila ni Hershey dahil parehong nonsensers. Maybe I have to introduce Hershey to her.

"Yami is not a cake although a cake is yummy." She chuckled.

Napailing ako ng sunod sunod bago tuluyang ibinaba ang tawag. Bakit ba kasi siya pa ang kauna-unahang tinawagan ko? Does she have an idea about this thing? Sa pagkakaalam ko ay never pa 'yan nagkakaboyfriend, well, ako rin naman. We're both NBSB, and I'm proud, I don't know if she's too.

After the day when Jared punched Travin, I have no update until now. I tried avoiding Travin's presence because I'm not really comfortable and I'm glad there's a girl who likes Travin in our room so I switched seats with her. I can clearly remember her wide smile and unending thank yous on me while Travin's giving me a goosebumps because of his deadly glare from his dark eyes.

Even Jared. I haven't talked to him but I already talked to Faye. Sinabihan ko lang siyang pagsabihan niya si Jared na huwag basta basta makigulo sa akin. I don't like him butting in my own problem. And Faye said sorry to me too. Hindi niya kasi ako nadalaw o nabisita dahil busy daw siya. She's a nursing student and I understand her.

And about my conversation with Thylane, kinwento ko sa kaniya 'yung nangyari kay Jared at Travin so I'm seeking advice to her. She's asking me to act rudely on Travin. 'Yon lang daw 'yung nakikita niyang paraan para hindi mahalata ni Travin na hindi pa ako nakakamove on. Well, I moved on a lot...but not wholy. And I'm not gonna buy Thylane's shit. Masyado talagang rude 'yon.

I tried calling Faye, Andrea, and Jiyon about this matter but no one's picking up. Napairap ako bago bumalik sa room namin. Thankfully, the professor's not yet here. And thankfully, I can focus on my whole class because I'm comfortable. I'm only uncomfortable when Travin's beside me.

Nang matapos ang dalawa naming klase ay napapangiti kong niligpit ang mga gamit ko. My heart is beating very normal, I'm not feeling any nervousness, and that's because of the girl who's in love to Travin.
