Kath entered her car and smiled.
O, ano ngayon? You think ganoon ako ka-easy? Buti nga sayo. Hmp. Dapat i-tawa ko nalang to.
She opened her phone and posted another tweet. “If you can’t make it better, you can laugh at it.”
Before people start asking her questions again, she turned her phone off.
While her car was heading back to the hotel, Kath stared out the window, contemplating.
I feel slightly better now.
She thought of DJ and everything that has happened the past few days.
“Should I break up with him?” she said aloud.
But the mere thought of losing him scared her.
Kath noticed her driver looking at her through the front mirror.
“Naku, narinig nyo po ba yun, Kuya? Kalimutan niyo po yung sinabi ko” she said quickly.
“Naku, ma’am, pwede po ba ako magsalita? Kung hindi niyo po mamasama-in”
“Ano po yun?”
“Para sa akin po, bigyan niyo lang po muna siya ng panahon at pagkakataon na humingi ng patawad sa kung ano man yang ikinagagalit mo. Alam niyo po kasi nakikita ko naman po kung gaano niya kayo kamahal... at alam ko rin naman po na mahalaga siya sayo. Sayang po kasi ang relasyon niyo, pinaghirapan niyo po yan na ipundar... nakita ko kung paano ninyo yan pinaglaban noon... tapos dahil sa isang problema eh, susuko na kayo agad.”
Kath became silent.
“.... Pero, Nagtatampo po kasi ako, Kuya.”
“Normal po yang tampo2x, ma’am. Ganyan po talaga. Lilipas din yan. Ang kailangan ninyo dalawa ay ang mag-usap ng maayos.”
“Pero ayaw ko pa po cyang maka-usap.”
“Ayos lang yan, ma’am Kath... eh di kausapin mo nalang siya paghanda ka na.”
“Hmmm...”
Kath nodded and her driver smiled.
“Thank you po, Kuya.”
Sa ngayon, hindi pa ata ako handa.

DJ sat down on the couch and sighed. He is waiting for the director to call him for his next scene.
The memory of Kath’s angry face haunts his mind. Ms. Mataray is back. Akala ko di ko na cya makikita ulit. Sanay kasi ako sa malambing version niya. At yun naman talaga ang mas gusto ko.
He opened his cellphone and started reading Kath’s text from a few days ago.
“I miss you and I love you, Daniel John Ford Padilla. Even if di ko maamin yan sa lahat ngayon, alam ko sa puso ko, yan ang totoo. Good night.”
DJ stared long and hard at the text message.
Aaaahh! Yun na yun eh! Wala ka talagang kwenta, Daniel Padilla! Ikaw tong may gana magtampo, pero hindi mo rin naman pala kaya! Nasaktan mo pa tuloy si Kath. Sana hindi mo nalang siya sinaktan!
“Alam mo, parang galit na galit ka dyan sa cellphone mo. Kung makatingin ka naman, kulang nalang sunugin mo yan.” A production assistant said.
