"And I don't like you too..."
Those words pierced through my heart. It didn't leave my mind until I got home, until the next day and the following week. Paulit-ulit siyang tumatakbo sa utak ko. I never knew that those six words could hurt me this much.
I cried hard that night thinking how he made me feel special and loved and it all turns out to be nothing. He didn't like me at all.
Damn, that hurts big time!
I tried to act normal when I'm at school. It's hard, hell yeah, he's my classmate for Pete's sake! There are times that I approached him but he's too firm, I eventually got tired.
"Wag ka mag-alala, mahal ka no'n." nagugulat na napatingin ako sa nagsalita.
Bumalik sa akin ang eksena kung saan sinabi iyon ni Gab at nauwi sa isang date. That time was so special to me. If I can only turn back time, I would.
Nabuhayan ang loob ko sa pag-aakalang si Gab 'yon pero hindi..
It was Ivan.
Magkapatid ba sila at pareho sila ng sinasabi?
I let out a heavy sigh as I saw Ivan and not Gab. But to my surprise, Ivan lifted my chin and cupped my face.
"I noticed that you're sad over the whole week, is there any problem?" He stare directly into my eyes, it was as if he's trying to read my soul.
Nakita ko naman sa 'di kalayuan sina Gab at Vienna nakahawak pa ang lalaki sa baywang ni Vienna.
Damn! What a torture!
Agad sumama ang mukha ko dahil do'n.
"Hey. What's wrong?" tawag pansin ni Ivan na mas lalo pang inilapit ang kaniyang mukha sa akin.
"Nothing." I looked away trying to hide the pain I've been feeling.
"Are you sure?"
"Y-yes." nautal ako nang makitang magka-holding hands ang dalawa, napalingon din naman si Ivan sa mga ito.
"I'm sorry, I didn't know they're here. Do you want to go somewhere else?" I was taken aback by what he said.
Does he know?
"It's because of him, right?"
"H-how did you k-know?"
Shit. Am I that obvious?
He just shrugged his shoulder and pinched my cheeks. Agh!
"You dumb ass! It hurts!" I tried to get revenge but he caught my hand and that caused our face to get closer.
He's practically kissing the tip of my nose! I'm relieved that it was just the nose!
Napasulyap naman ako kay Gab na paalis na, hawak pa din nito si Vienna habang ang bag ng dalaga ay nakasukbit sa balikat niya.
How sweet.
"I'm with you but he's all you can see.." Ivan pulled his face away from me.
He look...sad.
"Ha?" He was whispering something so I didn't really heard him.
"Nothing! Come, let's fix your face. You look like a mess!" Tatawa-tawa pang ginulo nito ang buhok ko.
Ginantihan ko naman siya ng sama ng tingin pero ang loko tatawa-tawa pa ring inakay ako patayo.
"A beautiful mess." His smile is so alluring, I can't help myself but to smile back.
