TAMING THE BEAST [ongoing]

K A B A N A T A 1

It's been a year since I left that place where those memories that we've shared will be forgotten...

5 Years Earlier

Leigh's point of view;

I'm preparing our food for dinner at walang ibang ginawa si keila kundi pilitin ako sa kung anong gusto nya which is just irritating me.

"Leigh come on sumama kana pleaseeeee?? It's been a while since nag hang out tayo with Katherine, and this will be the last dahil she said that she'll be moving this year sa U.S kayaaa don't be KJ okay??"

"Pano kung mangyari nanaman yung nangyari last month huh? She'll just make fun of us so please be reminded of what she did nung last time na sumama tayo sa kanila." Keila is my cousin and we're living under the same roof, iisa ang pinagtatrabahuhan naming kumpanya which is G.walker corp. kaya nag decide kami na mag renta na lang ng isang apartment for two people para medyo makatipid. We're far from our family pero umuuwi kami every holidays and everytime na may occations dahil namimiss rin naman namin sila at iyon na lang ang mga panahon na nag kakasama sama kami papalagpasin paba?

"Leigh ano kaba people change, she just wanted a goodbye celebration, besides she's still one of your friend at humingi na sya ng tawad sa nagawa nya satin okay? Kung ayaw mo naman makipag hang out sa kanila let's just go there and goodluck her for her new journey before she leave for U.S."

"Correction, Ex...ex friend."

She just sighed and stop pestering me. I looked at her at masasabi ko sa itsura nya na kinokonsensya nya ako. Napairap ako sa hangin at huminga ng malalim.

"Oo na....pumapayag nako tsk!"

Kung maaari sana hindi talaga ako papayag dahil alam ko namang Katherine is not considering us as one of her close friends anymore and it's the same for me dahil sa issue namin when we're just in college. Pero itong pinsan ko kung umasta akala moy tinurukan ng sampong anesthesia dahil sa pag ka manhid! Hindi marunong makiramdam.

Bigla syang ngumiti ng parang baliw at tumakbo bago ako yakapin.

"Ahhhhhhhhhh!!!!! You're the best cous!!! HAHAHAHAHHAHA!!!"

Binalik ko na ang atensiyon ko sa niluluto ko, napailing nalang ako ng marinig kong paulit ulit humahalakhak si keila.

"If I know lalandi kalang don."

"Oyy.....hindi ahh hihihihi."

Napairap nalang ako dahil sa kagagahan ng pinsan ko....diyos ko nung nagpasabog siguro ang langit ng kalandian at kabaliwan nag dala pa siguro to drum.

Eksaktong 8pm ng nakarating kami sa club kung saan gaganapin ang goodbye celebration kuno ng bruhildang si Katherine. I looked at keila and saw her grinning from ear to ear, I just rolled my eyes at her at pumasok na kami sa club. Keila is older than me, she's already 25 years old while I'm 21 but she's acting like a child so how am I going to consider her as my older sister?

Ng makapasok na kami sa bar pumunta kami sa reservation area and ask kung saang room nadoon sina Katherine. After we asked, someone guided us paakyat sa 2nd floor , dinala kami nung babae sa VIP room. Keila opened the door at nauna syang pumasok sa loob kaya sumunod nalang ako sa kanya.

Napairap nalang ako ng makitang nakikipaglampungan si Katherine with jake which is my ex boyfriend na syang pinag awayan namin when we're in college, if I know pinapunta nya lang kami dito para ipamuka sakin na sila padin ng malandi kong ex.

Pero matagal Nakong naka move on kay jake, masyado lang talagang ma effort tong si Katherine dahil kahit tatlong taon na ang lumipas iniisip nya parin na naaapektuhan ako sa pinag gagagawa nya.
