The Break-Up List

3 Get a Makeover

Sunday and it's 'me' time day. Grabe, I feel like it's been a while since I got my alone time. Iba pala talaga kapag single ka at kapag may boyfriend ka na. Well, secret boyfriend for me.

Some girls, they can cope with the differences of being a single and having a special someone to take care of. They can still do things that can make them feel alive and at the same time they don't neglect their duties as a girlfriend. I envy those girls who are sure of what they want, those girls who do not forget their goals even though may mga boyfriends na sila.

And then there's me. Sa akin kasi ever since Reed came in my life I forgot everything. Sa kanya ko lang nafocus ang lahat nang time and energy ko because that time I thought he's the only one that matters. Or maybe it's my insecurities talking. I thought if I did everything, if I could give him everything he wants, if I made him my priority, maybe just maybe he won't leave me for the next best thing.

He did.

Perhaps, I did not satisfy him in any way only Elyse can do. I sighed and looked at my bedroom. Too many memories and I feel suffocated.

Dito kasi kami nagchichill ni Reed after classes or kapag may lakad kaming magkakaibigan dito siya minsan tumutuloy after. Of course, patago lang. He will climb on my window every night or maybe if he felt lonely kasi alam niya na nandito lang ako para sa kanya.

I can't concentrate on what I am reading kasi katext ko si Reed. That guy can send butterflies to ransack my tummy. Yes, I've had my fair share of flings pero si Reed, siya lang talaga yung pinakaseryoso to the point na I consider him as my boyfriend. No, walang ligawan na nangyari, it just.. clicks. My mom knows about him, though.

From: Reed Jensen

Wala, bored. I miss you. Damn. I miss your lips, babe.

And I'm squealing right now. Reed and his words. Like what I've said, bihira lang yan magsabi nang feelings niya so every time he did nagfafangirl pa din talaga ako. Siya kasi talaga 'yung nakacaught nang attention ko the first time Brea introduce me to her friends and that includes Reed. Yung feeling na you don't know each other, I don't even know him but I'm pretty sure he will make a big impact on my life. How did I know? Hindi ko din alam.

To: Reed Jensen

Why? Wala ba sila Vince to keep you company? I miss you, too.

Syempre kahit kilig na kilig na ako, I still need to keep my cool.

Reed: Nandito, nambababae na naman sila nila Cason. Jax is drunk already. Pahirapan na naman sa paguwi 'to.

Ako: Baka naman pati ikaw sumasama sa kanila ha?

I can't help but to question him. Syempre, I have the right naman siguro 'no? I don't know if our friends know something about 'us'. Siguro may alam sila but because of Reed's complications hindi nila kami matanong.

Reed: No, babe. Behave nga lang ako dito, e. I'm with Pierce. I wanna be with you after this party. Can we meet?

Yung puso ko sobrang saya. If only we could always be like this. Haaaay. I'm so inlove with this guy.
