Kwentong Kolehiyo

Rebound

We were both in high school when we first met each other. I had a crush on you since then but you were the "heartthrob" and you were with your long time girlfriend so I know na wala akong chance sayo. So ngayong college, cfad ako while med ka. Wala akong kaalam alam sa nangyayare sayo kase you have no social media. But then one day, I suddenly bumped into you nung Paskuhan. Para bang lahat ng feelings ko sayo nung HS tayo bumalik. We talked and since that night the usual thing happened, palagi na tayong magkausap, nagkikita until we fell for each other. We always go out, hatid sundo mo pa ako. Everything was perfect. I was there for you everytime na naddown ka. And you were there for me too. Okay na lahat, pero bigla ka na lang di nagparamdam. I didnt do anything about it, di ako nagtanong bakit. I thought na maybe I wasnt good enough. Thinking na why would a guy like you ever like someone like me diba?

After a week, I learned from our mutual friend na nagkabalikan na kayo nung girl mo since hs. Ang sakit sobra. When i heard that parang gumuho buong mundo ko. Pero i have no right to get mad at you. Ano bang meron satin? Siguro i just saw things differently. Hinayaan ko kahit masakit. Kase syempre inisip ko na ah baka nga may chance tayo. But i was wrong.

After a month, you came back. You called me and you were crying. Sabi mo, you caught her cheating. Na may iba siya. Eto naman ako, todo comfort sayo. I told you that you deserve someone better and that everything would be okay. You were in pain. Hearing you cry, i know na sobrang nassaktan ka. Sobrang cinomfort kita. You told me na ayaw mo na sakanya. Na pagod ka na. Ako naman, inisip ko na baka nga eto na talaga yung chance so i took it. Again, everything was perfect. We were happy. You were happy. Hanggang dumating sa point na you were acting weird. Di ka na tulad nung dati na sweet, hinihintay ako matulog, gusto lagi ako kausap. Inisip ko na baka kayo na ulit. Lagi kong winiwish na sana mali hinala ko cause I believed in every single word you said to me. Pero again, you didnt talk to me. I decided to check your ex's ig and then there i saw na kayl na ulit.

I can't keep on being your option, Chase. Don't keep running back to me everytime na nalulungkot ka tapos iiwan mo na lang ako bigla. I deserve to know the reason why. You can't keep on making me fall tas bigla ka na lang mawawala. But thank you for letting me see my worth. Perhaps, we will always be a maybe, an almost. Timing never seemed right between the two us and maybe that's the universe's way of saying that we aren't meant to be. I hope the both of you are happy now.
