Stripped | Raze×Ash #PrimoAwards2018

Wakas

His side.

Love exist in the world, they say. I can say also that. But the woman I loved ay meron ding mahal. How cruel the world, right?

Every time I saw her pretty face and innocent smile, I'm like a crazy dog who's smiling also.

"Kuya, anong pangalan mo po?" She asked one time because she task as a secretary in our group.

"R-azer Jade Montebello" I said. Tamango siya at sinulat ang pangalan ko. I am amazed that she was inches by me. I want to caress his face.

"Ganito ba ang spelling?" Tanong niya sa akin. Ni hindi lang siya naintimidate sa titig ko.

"Hindi U, O dapat." Sabi ko sa kanya.

Pinalitan niya pero naging 'Muntebullo' ano daw?

"Hindi ganyan, dapat-" hindi ko na natapos ang sasabihin ko dahil binigay na niya sa akin ang papel.

"Ikaw nalang, mahina ako sa spelling." Hinawakan niya ang kamay ko at binigay ang ballpen.

That's the first time I touched her bare hand. It was like sheer clothes, sobrang lambot. She was clumsy.

I thought that was the starting point but isn't. Palagi silang magkasama ni Carlos. Ni hindi nadin niya ako kinakausap dahil wala naman kasing interaksyon na nagaganap sa subject na 'yon.

I was stucked in loving her kahit na may girlfriend ako. I do girlfriend pero kalaunan na hinihiwalayan ko. Ito na ba ang karama ko dahil sa pananakit sa kanila? Sinasakat ng taong mahal ko ang puso ko kahit wala naman siyang ginagawa. How pathetic I am.

Alam kong mali ang gagawin ko pero dahil mahal ko siya gagawin ko ang lahat mapunta lang siya sa akin. Yes, I am selfish. Gusto ko akin lang siya. Dapat akin lang siya.

I asked Stacy her ex-bestfriend a favor. Half of me was ready to do it but the half was full of conscience. I'm a stalker of her, kahit na maliit na bagay na gusto niya ay alam ko pati narin ang nangyari sa pamilya niya.

"Then, ano namang makukuha ko sa gagawin ko, ah?" Stacy asked. I narrowed my eyes. Alam naman na niya ang sagot bakit ko pa sasabihin.

"Well, if you doesn't like it's okey."

She's an actress in the whole time when she's with Ash. She envy Ash.

"Stop of what? Di mo na ba ako mahal?" They way she begged in front of Carlos my heart was in excruciating pain.

Mahal na mahal niya talaga ang pinsan ko. Sana ako nalang. Sorry, Ash. I'm here but I'm invisible dahil hindi makita ng mga mata mo na andito ako.

"I want Ash. I need her. I love your girlfriend."

An extremely punch Carlos gave to me. Puno ng poot ang mga mata nito. Kung si Ash nagmamakaawa na bilikan siya ni Carlos ako naman magmamakaawa at magmamakaawa ako hanggang makuha ko siya.

"How dare you!"

"Ibibigay ko sayo lahat ng mana ko. I will give you the resorts in Tagaytay and Palawan."

"How can you do that when lola was only see you. She will.."

"I can do about that don't worry."

And guess what? He agreed. I know my cousin at  ko matanggap na ganun lang kadali sa kanyang ibigay sa akin si Ash. She is like most precious gem, a sunshine, a gift. But aside, I was very happy.

Kung ako gahaman si Carlos naman ay tanga. Ang tanga diba?

But in every happiness there's a counterfeit of sadness. And damn it. She just gave a stare na parang nandidiri siya sa akin.
