Michelle's POV
Nauna nako kay Rhian because I'm supposed to assist her.
Literal ko syang inalalayan kasi tanga siya at di marunong maghanap ng safer path kasi madalas nalang syang nadudulas at natatapilok.
We held hands the entire time just to keep her balance hanggang sa nakahanap kami ng isang malaking puno na pwede naming masilungan temporarily.
Grabe, it's only been 45 minutes pero pakiramdam ko parang katapusan ko na sa sobrang hingal ng pag-akyat, patarik na kasi ng patarik ang mga dinadaanan namin.
Rhian also took the time to interview each pair about their past and current experience sa pag-akyat ng bundok nato.
Una nyang tinanong si Laura at Vaugn.
Umupo naman sa tabi ko si Den habang busy naman si Luis sa pakikipag-usap dun sa magkapatid na foreigner.
Nagreretouch naman ng make-up si Sela at Abby.
"It's been a while since the last time we saw each other." Open ni Den.
"Yeah, college." Sabi ko.
"By the way, how's Ly?. I haven't seen her around din." Sabi niya.
"Well, she's doing fine naman. Medyo busy sa career pero nagkikita naman kami every once in a while." Sabi ko.
"After this pala LA and I are celebrating our 4th year anniversary, punta kayo. And your girlfriend as well--" Sabi ni Den.
"Girlfriend?."
"I mean Rhian, isn't she your--"
"What? Ew! Of course not tsk. We're just colleagues. Actually, we're here for work." Sabi ko.
"Oh, I thought--kasi diba, naging rumor na rin yan nung college?."
"What rumor?." Takang tanong ko.
Di kasi ako updated sa mga chismis sa campus before dahil nga focus ako sa studies para malamangan yung impakta.
"That the two of you are actually a thing. Syempre, after you came out as bi parang inassume ng iba na siya yung girlfriend mo since kayo yung madalas nagkakasama dahil officers kayo ng student council. Madalas pa kayo magtalo, literally a couple thing. Anyways, who was your girl back then?." Sabi ni Den.
"Minsan, may mga bagay talagang di na dapat pinag-uusapan. Lalo na't matagal nang tapos. And I would just like to clarify na di ako nag-out. I was outed, there's a difference." Sabi ko nalang.

Rhian's POV
"Thank you." Huling sabi ko sa couple at eto na nga, tumuloy na rin kami sa paglalakad but this time parang medyo dumidistansya na si
Michelle sakin.
Tsk. Ano na namang problema ng babaeng to?.
Hours passed and I feel like each of my body parts will fall off anytime soon.
5 PM na at sa wakas nakakita na rin kami ng medyo patag na bahagi ng bundok kung saan ay pansamantala muna kaming mamamahinga ngayong gabi.
Michelle helped other women cook for dinner habang iniinterview ko parin ang ibang pairs while ginagawa ang kanya-kanya nilang tasks like slicing vegetables at pagsisibak ng kahoy.
