[b]CHAPTER 14: [i]The Truth be told then... Go home [/i][/b]
I basically sat in the drive way.. alone, in the dark. It was so freaking cold that night, or maybe I just thought it was.. I didn't know what to feel, sadness or happiness. I actually really wanted to talk to him, find out if it was all true.
After about 5 minutes of thinking, hoping and praying that he might approach me, my dad arrived to pick me up. I went off to my destiny (out of the city). My friends kept crying, as if they were never to see me again. Cha got so mad at me cause she said "happy party dapat toh! ginawa mong despedida!" but then hugged me so tight as if i was never coming back (which was probably the case). I was gonna go off and study in Manila (parent's choice... and mine. we all agreed that it was best to study there, and we all wanted a really bright future for me). That night was crazy.. sad.. happy? And absolutely confusing. One thing though that i was sure of, was that my friend's really loved me, and they showed it. I wish he would do the same.
When I got home, I put my phone aside so I could concentrate on packing up. I just had to pack up my clothes anyway, still hard if I'd forget something. I had to go to Manila immediately to setup my stuff and fix my other files. Plus, I joined the varsity team of our school, and unexpectedly.... training started during the summer.
After about 2 hours, I finally finished packing up. I checked my phone if anyone texted and wow... somebody sure did. He even missed called me! Uh-oh
He had exactly 77 messages, asking me if I was pissed with him and him saying that he was sorry (probably thought I was cause of my not replying). He even had 17 missed calls.
Oh wait, what's with the "7" you ask? It's my favorite number and our "monthsarry". With the jokes? Yeah, cause it's my favorite number. Haha. So anyway..
I texted him and said "Hey! I'm not mad. I could never be.. Why would I? Sorry for not replying, I was packing up. But i'm texting you now! Aren't I?
"
Took him a while to reply.. But he finally did: "No need for you to appoligize. I think it's the other way around.. Packing? Wow. You're really leaving huh?"
S: Yup. No choice.. plus, I really want this.
Suddenly, my phone rang and he called me up! I had to answer, right?
He spoke in a flash.......
K: I know. And that's a great thing.
S: Hehe. Anyway.. Why would you think I'm mad?
K: Sungit mo kasi kanina. Di ka namamansin. Taray! May sasabihin pa man din sana ko sayo..
S: Hah! Di kaya! [(hehe yeah right, pansin niyang iniiwasan ko siya!? cool)] Hmm. ano sasabihin mo?
K: Hmm. Pagbalik mo naman. Sigurado namang magkikita pa tayo.
S: Eeeh. Bahala ka nga!
K: Hehe. Sige na nga.. Ano, totoo yung mga sinabi ko nun.
S: Alin?
K: Yun nga! Sayang. Niligawan sana kita. Saya siguro!
S: Ulul.
K: Ano! Seryoso kasi! Alam mo! Nagustuhan talaga kita! Gusto talaga kita!
S: No joke na ba toh?
K: Oo, Sum. As in. Nuon pa. Inaamin ko, as in sobrang gusto kita. Pero hindi ko kasi maintindihan! Ikaw ba, di mo ba ko nagustuhan?
S: Hindi..
K: Ay..
S: Nagustuhan hindi.. Gusto pa kita.
K: Talaga? Shet! Sayang talaga! Alam mo, paulit ulit kong sinabi nun diba? That i'm gonna love you forever. Pero ano nangyari! Wala!
S: Wow! So ako may kasalanan na iniisip ko bawat isa sa mga sinasabi mo sakin joke? Ha! Galing mo talaga.
K: Di ako makikiapgaway sayo.. lalo na kung ito ang pagaawayan natin.
S: Bahala ka..
K: Lam mo, Sum... Kung mas maaga lang talaga sana.
(at this point, naiiyak na talaga ko)
S: Bakit ba too late na? Pwede pa naman diba?
K: Hindi. Too late na talaga.
S: Bakit?
K: Siympre! Kung nun pa edi parang, hindi madaling mawala yung feelings! Alam mo yun? Matagal na edi sigurado nothing could go wrong kasi nga ang tagal na natin. Eh kung ngayon diba?
S: I disagree with you completely. Para sakin, pwede pa.
K: Hindi na. Wag na. Hayaan mo na please. Alam mo, ikaw rin lang ang mahihirapan. Tayo ang mahihirapan. Manila ka pa man din. Alam mo ba kung gaano karami gwapo dun!
S: Oo. Pero iba ang "gwapo" sa "love". Diba?
K: Siguro.. Ewan! Oh.. Asan ka na?
S: Bahay parin. Ikaw?
K: Papunta.
--BEEEEEP-- binabaan ba naman ako!?
At ayun, may kumatok sa binatana ko! Nagulat pa ko as in grabe! May veranda kasi sa bintana ko, imaginine mo yung sa High School Musical 1, nung pumunta si Troy sa bahay ni Gabriella, parang ganon. Haha.
At ayun, nagusap kaming masinsinan. Umiyak ako, umiyak siya. Nagpapasalat ako kay Lord at walang nagising or sumilip sa room ko. Inexplain niya lahat, yung pagsinasabi niya mga crush niya, pinapaselos lang pala niya ko. Na pagkausap niya sila Will tas nilalait niya mga nagiging kafling ko. Lahat sinabi niya, at siyempre, lahat sinabi ko na rin. Inexplain niya sakin kung gaano kahirap ang long distance, at kung gaano kasakit kung may masamang nangyari. Inexplain niya sakin how much he really loved me, and how hard it is to find a girl like me. I asked him "If i'm really what you say I am, then why don't we go for it?" Pinipilit ko talaga! Cos i really wanted this. But he insistead that we not. I asked him "Ano na mangyayari?". He replied, "Sabihin mo nalang na minahal mo talaga ko. At ako, minahal talaga kita. Kelangan nalang tanggapin. Kung sa future, malay natin diba? Pero ngayon, pakasaya ka nalang. Magingat ka rin sa love love na yan, think din muna, bago mo sabihin love mo ang isang tao. Diba? Yun din sinasabi mo sakin.. I guess that's also one of the reasons I was too afraid to tell you. Na maybe hindi pa time, or maybe..... I'm not good enough for you." and I replied "Never. Pero sige. I agree with you na. Maybe you're right. Bahala na si Lord.. Sige 'I loved you'".
He told me to go inside already and he told me to go to sleep cause I still had a long day ahead of me. Biyahe na ko mamayang madaling araw. We hugged each other and once again, said goodbyes like we were never gonna see each other again. That hug was tight, loving and one of a kind. One that I might never feel again...
