Take Me Back

Chapter 3

It's Saturday Morning nang tawagan ako ni ate Fille para i-inform ako sa baby shower nya in her second baby. Close kami ni ate Fille dahil inaanak ko si Ino, her first baby at teammates din kami sa Ateneo Womens Volleyball Team.

*Kringgg..Kringgg..Kringgg..*

"Hello ate Fil! How are you and my inaanak? Masayang bati ko sa kanya.

Pagdating kay ate Fil, binabago ko ang attitude ko dahil mabilis makahalata yun. Alam nya yung nangyari samin ni Kief, pero ni minsan hindi nya ginustong pag-usapan dahil alam nyang di makakatulong sakin.

Pero pag-usapan man o hindi, masakit pa din eh. Nandun pa din lahat ng alaala. Kaya pag sya ang kausap ko, I need to act as if I'm really happy but deep inside it almost kill me.

"We're okay naman Ly, medyo bumibigat na si baby girl sa tyan ko, Hahahaha." Sagot naman nya habang tumatawa.

"Basta if you need anything else ate, you can always call me ha?" I said while smiling fake as if she sees me.

"Oh my! Buti na lang nasabi mo yan. I almost forgot the reason why I call you" natatarantang sabi nya.

"What's with the call ba ate Fil? Do you need my help?" I asked.

"I just want to invite you and the Team Besh tomorrow, it's my baby shower for my baby girl eh. And I want all of you to be a part of it." Masayang sabi nya.

Nagaalangan man, pero pumayag na din ako.

"Okay ate, I'll inform the girls." I answered.

"Osya! Sige na. Babye na, asahan ko kayo bukas ah. 5:00 ang start ng program." She said.

I just nod and said, "Okay."

The call has ended.

The day went so fast, and now it's already 8:00 pm in the night. I went to the nearest bar here in my condo, it becames my hobby. Go to bar at 8 o'clock and drink until midnight or until morning, just trying to forget everything. Alcohol became my sleeping buddy, when I started to waste my life 3 years ago.

I am wearing a sleeveless dress and a heels and I put some makeup on my face. I always look pale and my eyebags are so damn big! Because of lack of sleep.

Di ko balak magpaabot ng umaga dito dahil nga may party akong pupuntahan bukas, until midnight lang ako. I was drinking na may lumapit saking lalaki, based on his voice I know it's Alfred Valbuena of UP.

"Hey Phenom!" Bati nya.

He knows I hate it when he calls me Phenom, co'z it reminds me of everything about Kief and everything that he did.

"Can you please stop calling me names, and you shut up! I want to be alone." I said irritably.

Di ko naman talaga sya sinusungitan madalas, may pagkapilyo din kasi tong isang to eh.

"Grabe pala ang nadulot sayo ni Kief noh?" He said seriously.

"Wait, what did you say?!" Naiinis na ako sa kanya. Pumunta ako dito para kahit papano makalimot ako kahit sandali tapos ipinapaalala nya pa.

"Ang layo mo na nga talaga sa dating Alyssa na kilala namin. Tama nga si Den, ganun kalaki ang epekto nya sayo."

Natauhan ako sa sinabi nyang yun at bigla na lang syang tumayo. Di ko alam ang sasabihin ko sa kanya, dahil nagu-guilty ako na pati sila pala naaapektuhan ko na.

"Sorry." Tanging sabi ko sa kanya nang hindi man lang tumitingin sa mga mata nya.

"Ly, andito kami. Sya lang yung nang-iwan sayo pero pati kami naaapektuhan ng galit mo sa kanya." Sabi nya at tuluyan ng umalis at iniwan ako.

Ganun na ba talaga kalaki yung pinagbago ko? Na pati mga taong concern sakin, tinataboy ko na. Sorry lang ang kaya kong sabihin dahil kahit ako hindi alam kung pano pipigilan to eh.

Uminom lang ako ng uminom hanggang sa malasing ako.

Pasensya na po kung medyo bad girl ang ating phenom dito. Dala lang po talaga yun ng sakit na naramdaman nya. Continue reading po..
