Alice's Pov

Kanina pa ako pabalik balik ng lakad Dito sa harap ng Bahay ni Sen Risa. This is it! Mag coconfess na ako sa kanya there's no turning back na, Ang layo layo ng biyahe ko kaya go na to.

I pressed the doorbell minutes later Sen Risa appeared

"Alice? What brings you here? Hindi ka nag Sabi na pupunta ka pala Dito edi sana nakapag handa man lang ako ng food" gulat nitong Sabi

"A-ahm Sen----"

"Halika pasok ka, mainit Dito sa labas" hinawakan ako nito para dalhin sa loob

"S-sen wag na Po, I came here to tell you something" I said nervously

"Are you okay? Your stammering Alice" kunot noo Nitong Sabi

"Sen, I've been thinking for these past few weeks about you"

Seryoso itong nakatingin saakin

"Sen Risa, gusto Po kita. Di ko ma explain kung bakit Basta I genuinely like you. It's okay Po kung mawalan Yung friendship natin but this is what I want to say Po and ayaw ko pong pigilan  cause it's so painful na mag tago ng feelings" sunod sunod Kong Sabi

Risa's Pov

Hindi ako maka process sa pinagsasabi ni Alice

She likes me too, Akala ko ako lang and I felt so happy with that. Pero what if naguguluhan lang siya? What if....

Tumikhim ako

"A-Alice wag kang mag padalos dalos, baka nabibigla ka lang"

"No I'm not Po, what I've said earlier is true" parang Bata na Sabi nito

"Alice think about it okay? Baka nabibigla ka lang on what you feel?"

"Y-You don't believe me Po?" Mahina nitong Sabi

I believe in you Alice! I like you too pero baka ikaw Ang magsisi sa huli baka maguluhan ka at parehas tayong masaktan

"S-sige Po Sen una na Po ako, pasensya na Po. I hope our friendship still remains after nitong incident. Sorry Po sa abala" tumalikod ito saakin at mabilis na lakad Papunta sa sasakayan Niya

A single word didn't come out on my mouth. Naguguilty ako, I like her too gusto ko din siya pero bakit ganito? Bakit Ang gulo?

Alice's Pov

I couldn't stop my tears from falling, Ang sakit sakit. I confessed pero Wala akong sagot na nakuha, Hindi ko kayang Magalit or magtampo Kase in the first place ako Naman Yung nauna eh. She may like girls pero I think I'm not fit on her IDEAL girls are.

Gabi na ng maka rating ako sa Bahay and i saw ate shiela cleaning the living room

"How did it go---oh" she was shocked on what my face look like, probably sabog sabog na ako

"It did not end well ate" I cried

Agad ako nitong niyakap

"Shhh, it's okay there's nothing wrong with that. Accept the rejection and you'll find someone who might fit on you" she comforted me

"Eh siya nga Yung gusto ko eh" maktol ko

"Come on Ali, wag ka nang umiyak I'll cook nalang your favorite sinigang na hipon how's that?"

I smiled while wiping my tears

"Thanks ate, I'll go upstairs lang to change my clothes" I said

"Okay, baba ka Dito Mamaya ha"
