Chapter 21 

Too late 

Just when I was just about to take risk, It's too late for me now, I'm on my way to the R.U because Mary told me to wait for her sa malapit na cafe so I agreed, for the whole week I didn't hear anything about Drake. I tried to avoid him expecting that he will look for me but he didn't. 

So for the whole week si Mary ang nakakasama ko at nakikinig sa'kin. Irene is too busy and pag hindi naman laging pagod at gusto lang matulog at ayoko na makadagdag pa. So, I'm with Mary all the time kahit na alam kong busy siya. 

I don't know but I really feel bothered right now, but I don't know the reason. 

"Girl!" I look at the entrance and I saw Mary running towards me. 

"Kalma lang," I said and laugh. 

"Hindi pa kayo nagkakausap ni Drake di'ba? So wala ka pa talagang alam." she said and sit in front of me. 

"Why? Ano ba meron?" I ask. 

"Ayun yung malanding playboy na yun, kalandian yung isa sa school beauty ng school!" She said at feeling ko may sasabihin pa siya so I let her. "Actually, after ng pag-uusap natin kinabukasan nakita ko sila hindi ko sinabi sayo dahil baka katulad lang din ng dati na kinabukasan wala na pero hindi, they been together for a whole week now." she added and I feel a pang in my chest to what I've heard. 

"Hindi ko nga alam bakit school beauty tawag sa kanya, hindi hamak na mas maganda yung dalawang Rheinford!" Mary said and I feel her look at me with worry in her eyes so I gave him a smile but my eyes are saying otherwise. 

"Sorry," she said at umiling naman ako sa kanya. 

It's not her fault, alam ko naman na hindi niya sinabi dahil alam niyang masasaktan ako so I understand her. Pero kahit naman hindi niya sabihin malalaman ko pa din at masasaktan pa din ako. 

Nang paalis na kami sa cafe I didn't expect to see Drake with the girl na sinasabi ni Mary. Drake saw me first and he gave me a smirk. The smirk that turn my world upside down. Because that smirk is like saying me something na hindi ko gustong malaman. 

Nilagpasan lang nila kami and I know Mary saw how Drake smirk at me. 

"Let's go!" sabi sa'kin ni Mary at hinila na ako palabas ng cafe. At saktong paglabas namin biglang may nagmessage sakin. 

From Mister:

I found her, it's your turn now, Miss. 

Parang gusto kong ibato ang phone ko. Sa laro din pala na ginawa ko ako pa din ang talo. Ako a din! Dahil kahit na hanapan niya pa ako ng lalaki diyan, siya pa din ang hahanapin ko! I didn't know that I also lose this game. I thought I will also win. Pero sa dalawang laro na nilaro namin laging si Drake ang panalo. Siya lagi! 

Kailan ko ba mararanasan manalo? 

"Hannah," I was about to speak when I break down. Hindi ko na kayang pigilan pa. Ang sakit sa puso. Bakit ako lagi ang natatalo?  I feel Mary hugging me while I was crying outside of the cafe. Buti na lang hindi naman ganun kalapit sa cafe and I know Drake won't see me because he's too focused on that girl. "Ano ka ba naman, pati ako nasasaktan sayo!" Mary said. 

"Hannah? Oh gosh, girl!" inangat ko yung tingin ko and I saw my two friends running towards me. 

"Ano nangyari? Bakit ka umiiyak? Mary?" sunod-sunod na tanong ni Raffy at inalalayan din akong tumayo. 

"Hannah, are you okay? Wag mo nang subukan sumagot ng yes dahil hindi ka iiyak ng ganyan kung okay ka! Sino nang-away sayo?" Zaira said and help me wipe my tears.
