That Guy With A Phantom Fiancé

Phantom no. 17

Carfel's POV

I was broken when he always tell me their story. On how he fall in love, and on how he wanted me to help him in courting her.

It was painful. Very painful. And I think I couldn't stand it anymore with these heartbreaks that I felt starting from God who rejected my wishes and to my best friend that I fell in love with.

I tried to be happy for Him, yet I couldn't.

I even made him an idiot with his outfit, and to the songs that I choose to play... for her to reject him, yet it is not what happened.

It turned out that his love is finally getting married. And she even invited him to attend.

I know his hurt.

Yet, what I felt is the opposite.

It's selfish,

I know.

But I love Him.

Can you blame me?

I am happy that my best friend, the man that I fell in love with, got rejected by the love of his life.

"Carfel ba't ganun? Gwapo naman ako ah! Mabait, masipag, mayaman, torpe nga lang, pero bakit ganun? Bakit kung kalian handa na akong sumugal saka pa siya magpapakasal?" naiiyak niyang sabi habang umiinom nang alak.

tinignan ko siya nang mabuti. He's a mess.

Yung dating Jude na kilala at minamahal ko...

Parang namatayan at ayaw nang mabuhay kahit kalian.

I completely understand him.

I felt the same way when I suddenly realize that I love him and he's in love with someone else...and that someone isn't me.

Nilagok ko ang isang basong tubig na nasa harapan ko. Habang siya, nakasubsob ang mukha sa lamesa at parang lasing na.

At dahil gabi na rin, siguro kailangan ihatid ko na tong lalakeng toh sa kanila. Baka maabutan ako nung nanay niyang kalahi ni Daldalita.

Kung makadada pa naman yun...

Akala mo wala nang bukas.

"uy! Jude! Uwi na tayo!" sabi ko kay Jude habang niyuyog-yog yung balikat niya.

"uggghhh!"

But he just groaned.

What a Jerk!

-___-+++

Napabuntong ako nang hininga...

No choice, kailangan ko siyang buhatin. Wala pa namang ibang tao dito sa Bar na toh kung di yung mga staff na lang. at puro babae pa!

Pasara na kasing tong bar na toh, nung niyaya akong maginuman nitong Jude na uminom ng alak... halos ayaw kaming papasukin kanina, pero nung ipinakita ni Jude yung shapa niya...ayun!

Halos dito na kami patirahin.

-____-'

Grabe sila!

Sinuportahan ko si Jude sa pagtayo at paglalakad palabas. Muntik na nga kaming matumba dahil sa sobrang bigat ng gagong ito!

Ng makalabas kami, hindi ko alam kung sinapian ng masamang espiritu itong si Jude dahil nagsimulang kumanta at tumawa...
