Prince Charming Mayabang

35. friends

Gaille's POV

Pagbukas ko ng pinto niyakap ako ni V. Wow ha! Anong trip nito?
And so, I hugged him back.

"Thanks sa hug." -sabi ko sa kanya. Gusto ko ng hug ngayon eh. Coz you know, I'm feeling lost! I dunno what to do too. My mom called me through my phone awhile ago.

"Okay ka lang?" -tanong ko sa kanya. Parang bata kung yumakap eh.

"Gusto lang kitang ihug." -sabi nya.

"Ayy? Sige, bitawan mo na ako."

"Thank you for always being there for me." -sabi niya sa akin.

Napatingin lang ako sa kanya. I looked directly to his eyes. He's so gorgeous and all. I'm so blessed na naging kaibigan ko siya.

"You're welcome." -sabi ko sa kanya.

"Please, give me a chance." -sabi niya sa akin.

"A chance?" -tanong ko sa kanya.

"To be your boyfriend, the real one." -sagot niya sa akin.

What's with him?

I can't be with him anymore. He's already engaged and I should know my limits when I'm around him. In fact, palihim akong nagkakagusto sa kanya.

"No, we can't." -sagot ko sa kanya even though I want to.

"Why?" -tanong niya.

"Look, you're engaged. I know your family have many plans about that girl for you. Ako lang siguro ang sagabal sa inyong dalawa." -sagot ko sa kanya.

"No, you're not." -hinawakan niya ang kamay ko.

"Gaille, pwede pa." -sabi niya sa akin.

Hindi ko alam ang sasabihin ko.

"You should only now focus to Kaylee."

Natahimik siya sa sinabi ko.

"You want me for Kaylee now?" -he asked me and I nodded.

"In fact, I'm starting to like her." -he said placing a smirk on his lips.

If he likes Kaylee, why would he ask me for a chance? Is he fooling me?

"I was asking you for a chance because I don't want to continue this feelings for Kaylee." -sabi niya.

Damn! You can't do anything but think of that person if you really have feelings for her or him. Akala ko gusto niya ko? Well, siguro guni-guni lang yun. Noh?

"You have feelings for her?" -tanong ko sa kanya.

"Yeah. I guess..." -he answered and I just nodded at him.

Me, I'll just keep my feelings for V. I'll just do anything to protect him as a friend. It's my pleasure to be his friend though. I never thought we could be close like this.

"In fact, she is my first and all. Dahil din sa kanya hindi ako nagseryoso sa mga babae. I thought si Lucy na talaga ang solusyon para makalimutan siya pero hindi pala." -sabi niya.

"Then you came, I always forgot thinking about Kaylee when I'm with you but then she unexpectedly came. Akala ko hindi na siya babalik." -dagdag niya.

"So?" -tanong ko sa kanya for more.

"I think, I know what's my final decision." -sagot niya.

"Ano?" -tanong ko.

"To not let go with Kaylee anymore." -he answered and then he ran out of my unit.
