Why Can't We Be? (Completed)

Chapter 34

'Kiely POV'

Sabay sabay kaming kumain ng lunch, habang panay ang talak ng dalawa at kami naman ang tega pakinig ni Jensen sa dalawa. Kasi as we believe bawat taga salita dapat may tega kinig kahit nakakabagot pero kakayanin, kahit nakakairita pero kakayanin, kahit ansarap ng sapakin pero pipigilan.

"I really love Kiely's suitors na talaga"-aniya Livvy

"Kasi bunganga mo mapupuno palagi at tiyan mo mabubusog, palagi"- aniya rin ni Valerie habang ngumunguya, kala mo si Livvy lang matalaw dalawa pala sila.

"Hep! Hindi lang yan at makakatipid Pako palagi, isipin mo yun"

"Kasi inot ka Ateng Livvy, inot na inot sa pera"-saad naman Ni Jensen na ikinasang-ayon ko.

Tama naman kasi, napakainot kala mo naman walang pera. Sumubo uli ako ng makita kong tumayo si Archer sa table nila ay agad din akong tumayo

"Teka, CR lang ako"

Binilisan ko ang paglalakad upang Sana maabutan si Archer ngunit bigo ako.

"Asan na yon? Hindi naman siguro tikbalang yon para mabilis mawala?"-parang baliw kong Kausap sa sarili ko

Lalakad na sana ako ng may humila sakin papasok sa Women's CR at isinara pa niya ito. My heart pumped very fast when I face the guy who brought me here inside the CR.

"Why here? Are you afraid to let Students know that we communicate? That we flirt? That we have something?"-taas kilang kong saad.

Hindi sa nag q-question ako sa sarili niya kong bakit ayaw niya kong ipakita sa ibang tao na nagkaka-usap kami, kasi alam ko naman ang rason.

Either, hindi talaga niya hilig ang mga babae like his group or maaring si Cathalia din ang rason?.

"What happened to your hand?"

Sa lahat ng tanong ko sa kanya, yan lang ang sinabi niya.

"Ako una nagtanong so answer me firstly then I'll answer yours too"

"Fine!"-matalim niya akong tiningan bago uli nagsalita

"I just don't want them to know that there's this girl that I'm link in"

"Eh bakit hindi ba totoo?"

"You know our group Kiely, we hate girls"

"If you hate girls then you probably hate me then?"

Nagtiim ang bagang niya, na ikinairap ko sa kawalan.

"One question at a time Kiely nasagot ko na ang una mong tanong, now answer my question"

"Fine"-ngumiti ako sa kanya ng nakakaloka "I had a fight last-last night"

"Why?"-seryoso niyang saad na mahihimigan sa tono ng pananalita niya ang pagkadismaya at pag-aalala

"I just like to"

"Why do you like to?"

"Because it's fun"

"Why that it's fun?"

"Because you don't care at all Archer"

"Why that I don't care?"

Tinaasan ko siya ng kilay, gusto yata nito ng laro sa tanong tanong na yan.

"Because we're nothing"

"Do you think we're just nothing?"

"Bakit? Meron ba? Meron ba akong assurance na sakin ka lang titingin? Na sa akin ka lang talaga mahuhulog? Na sa akin ka lang magmamahal?"

"Focus on my question Kiely, don't ever lie to me, before I ask you, I already know, I have my ways to know the truth and lie, I hate liers"

"Fine! Ginulo ako ng ex ko, gusto niyang makipagbalikan, It happened at bar"

"I know, I was there and I saw everything"

"Alam mo naman pala, bakit mo pa ako tinanong?"

"Because I wanted to hear it from you"

"You don't need to hear it from me, kung alam mo na, wag mo ng itanong, if your trying to measure my honesty, I'm sorry but I love lying"

"Probably the reason why I hate you at very first beginning"

"Hate me then, atleast I love you. I'll be more thankful for your hatred because it giving me reason to love you harder and deeper"

"I don't need to hate you cause I already love you"

Ngumiti ako agad sa sinabi niya, hearing those words are enough for me, Ewan ko ngayon lang ako nabaliw sa isang to ng ganto.

"Do you love me Archer?"

Seryoso niya akong tinitigan na para bang sinusuri ang Kabuuan kong mukha.

"I never thought that I would love such a girl like you, I never know what happened to my mind to love a girl like you, no words can explain how happy I am being with you, and no words can explain how my love for you was"

Hinawakan ko ang kaliwa niyang pisngi gamit ang kamay kong walang benda.

"I never thought on falling inlove with a guy like you, I know I am not enough for you and I will never be, but I'll promise to love you until my last breath"

"You don't have to say a promise, I'll be the one to do it, People might be perfect but in my eyes you're perfect enough to be my wife"

Mas lalo akong nangiti sa sinabi niya.
Ni hindi pa nga kami magkarelasyon iniisip na niya agad ako bilang asawa, masyadong masipag magpaasa itong si Archer din noh?

"Sometimes I ask myself, you ain't enough for me because We can't be"

"Why can't we be?, Kasi ganto lang ako? Hindi ako kasing talino mo? Hindi ako kasing bait mo? Hindi ako kasing perfect na anak na katulad mo? O kasi hindi ako yong ideal girl na iniisip mo?"

Umiling siya at hinawakan ang magkabila kong pisngi.

"That was my first thought nong nag confess ka sakin na you love me, but nawala yon lahat nong pinafeel mo sakin na worth it kang mahalin na worth it kang pagbigyan ng pansin. I know I judge you at very start kasi akala ko this was all a game"

Biglang may sumagabal sa lalamunan ko ng marinig ang salitang Game.
Remember Kiely this was all a game, pinagpustahan niyo lang si Archer.

I clear my throat

"This was never been a game, falling inlove with you Archer was never a game from me"

He smiled at me at niyakap niya ako ng mahigpit na mahigpit, para yata akong maiiyak ngayon, Ng dahil sa konsensya at nagu-guilty ako sa mga pinag-gagawa ko sa kanya.

"Isa lang pinanghahawakan ko ngayon, You love me and I love you"
