Chasing Heartaches (Shattered Pieces Series #1)

Chapter 23

It's been almost a month, I guess, since I last uploaded a chapter. Medyo naging busy kasi talaga ako sa modules at online class. Minsan ay hindi na ako umaalis sa harap ng module kaya ayon. Hope you like the update ㅇ ㅅ ㅇ.

Serious

Gusto kong umuwi sa bahay namin ni Windy para sana kumuha ng mga damit. Ayos naman na ang mga damit na binigay ni Ate Yhanna pero gusto ko yung mga comfy cloths. Sa bahay madami akong maluluwag na damit. Nandoon yung mga malalaking damit nila Yno na ina-arbor ko kapag nagpupunta ako sa condo nila. Nagnanakaw din ako noon ng hoodie kaya madami akong malalaking damit.

Uuwi ba ako o 'wag na? Baka kasi sisihin na naman ako ni Windy. Baka kung ano-ano na naman ang sabihin sa akin no'n. I'm not in the mood to taka everything in.

I pulled my hair and shout from frustration. Uuwi ba kasi ako?

My phone beeped while I was busy talking to myself. I pulled myself together and glance at my phone.

Who could have text me?

Tryne:

Good morning, missy. Update lang, buhay pa ako. And I won't attend to our classes today. Some errands happen.

I type, "Okay." as my reply.

Ano kaya ang nangyari sa lalaki na 'yun? May kinalaman kaya sa mama niya? Anyways, uuwi ba ako? Pero ayokong makita si Windy, but my laptop and other stuff are still there.

Binaba ko ang cellphone at nagpatuloy sa pakikipagtalo sa sarili kung pupunta pa ako sa bahay. My thoughts got interrupt when I heard my phone beep again.

Tryne:

I forgot to tell you, don't forget to eat breakfast before going to school and please eat your lunch kahit wala ako.

Tsk! Nasa kanya ba ang kanin at kaldero para hindi kumain ng lunch mamaya? Napakafeeling talaga nitong si Tryne. Anong akala niya, hindi ako kakain kasi wala siya? Tss, utot niya. Tryne is life, but food is lifer.

Me:

I'll visit our house later so it's okay. Ps: I'll eat my lunch don't worry ;)

The emoji seems out of place. Should I unsent my message? Pero walang unsent do'n gaga!

"Where's Tryne?" My classmate asked.

"He's busy," I replied simply, not wanting to talk.

I don't want to talk to people. The more they talk to me the more I got uninterested. Feeling ko plastic silang lahat.

The class went on without anyone bothering me. Pero nang mayari na ang klase ay hindi pa ako nakakalabas sa room ay hinila ng babae ang bag ko. Pasiring akong lumingon sa kaniya, kinunutan ko siya ng noo.

"Wanna hang out with us?" The girl in a high ponytail asked, hindi ko sila kilala kahit na roommates kami.

"No," I said blankly. There's no way I'll go out with them. I think they are living plastics.

"You're busy ba? I'm sure may time ka pa for hangouts 'di ba?"

"I'm not busy," I said nonchalantly, they're just not the people who I want to hang out with.

"Then why don't you go out with us?"

"I don't do hangouts," I said and walk out. Wala akong mahalungkat na record na close kami. Why are they suddenly approaching me?

"Hey! I just want to be friend with you. Make sure to come with Tryne if you are free." Pahabol na hiyaw nito habang papalayo ako sa kanila.

Umiling ako ng hindi sila tinitignan. Sabi ko na nga ba. Kung sasama ako sa kanila ay hindi pakikipagkaibigan ang gusto nila sa akin. They just want to be close with Tryne kaya nila ako sinasama. Ginagawa lang nila akong tulay. That is why I don't trust people. They are always two faced.
