I dressed up nicely because Kuya Karl dragged me to his friend's business event. Ayoko sanang pumunta because this isn't really my world pero I still pushed myself.... just to see Nate.

Since we got back from our secret weekend trip,we now have constant communication and we still go out.  Yes, exclusively dating. I don't know how to label this pero okay lang sakin.

Basta makasama ko sya, nakukuntento na kong maging masaya.

*phone beeped*

NATE: You look pretty tonight.

ME: Ikaw din, you look good.

Kahit hindi kami magkatabi, I feel that he's just beside me. Bukod sa tanaw namin ang isa't-isa, we're exchanging text messages. Ang sarap pala maging teenager ulit no? Yung para kaming teeny boppers na hindi pwedeng mahuli ng magulang. Lol

To be frank, this party is boring for me. I don't understand a thing. But because of Nate, I feel satisfied.

******************************************

Nakakainis hindi ko makatabi si Monique. Syempre nakabakod na naman ang bestfriend kong si Karl. Parang kapatid na niya talaga yun kung mag-alala para sa kanya. Well that's a good side though.

I'm just looking at her secretly, oo exclusively dating kami. Pero iniisip kong magpropose na sa kanya to be my girl formally.

My feelings for her just keeps getting better and stronger each time, lalo na pag nagkakasama kaming dalawa.

Gusto ko na talaga syang lapitan. I want to hold her hand and escape with her from this boring party.

"Sorry pare. I didn't know she'll be here."

I got distracted with what Paolo has said.

I turned my head and realized what he was talkign about........ damn. All of a sudden she'd be here?

It's Misty.... with another man. Ilang buwan ko syang hindi nakita and I didn't even get a valid reason from her. Tapos sa ganitong paraan pa sya magpapakita? What for?!

People here start to whisper. Wow. Siguro para sa kanila ako ang kawawa ngayon. Well they're wrong. I still remember the pain but I'm not hurting anymore.

Pero hindi ko gusto ang ganitong eksena. Pati ang pride ko nawala noong iniwan niya ako sa altar. i don't want her to do that to me twice. I think I shall live first.

Tumayo ako sa upuan ko at dumiretso sa garden na may dalang baso ng alak.

"Nathan.. Okay ka lang ba? Tama na. Don't get drunk please."

"Monique please hayaan mo muna ako."

Nakasunod pala sya. Ayoko pa namang makita niya akong parang affected. Oo affected ako pero hindi dahil mahal ko pa si Misty.

"Pero Nate tama---"

"Ano ba Monique, I said leave me alone first!"  I just want to be alone. I'm so sorry. But I'm okay, I promise.

"But when I see you get hurt, it hurts me."

----------------------> OH..OH... TSK.

"I'm not hurting. Wala sakin to, okay? I'm just keeping my pride! She took it all away from me! "

 Fck what did I just do? The beer really hits my head. Hindi ko na-control ang temper ko. Halo halong pagkagulat at galit ang nararamdaman ko. At sa kanya ko nabuntong yun. I'm stupid! Really stupid!!!

Hindi ko sinadyang masigawan o mapagsalitaan si Monique. Nabigla lang ako. But it's too late to apologize. She ran away. Hindi ko na sya nahabol.

*********************

Nasaktan ako sa inasal ni Nate kaya agad akong tumakbo paalis sa lugar na yun. I immediately drove myself back home..

Oo aaminin mo, when I saw Misty nakadama ako ng kaba na mabaling sa kanya ang attention ni Nathan. And yes, I am right. Dahil kitang-kita ko sa mga mata niya na nasasaktan sya ngayon.

Unang beses niya ulit nakita ngayon ang ex niya, worst is she's with another man.

Lalapit na sana ako sa kanya ngayon kahit nandyan pa si Kuya Karl sa paligid pero bigla syang nagpunta sa garden. And again, he shouted at me. He wanted to get rid of me. Sobrang sakit.

May aasahan pa ba ako ngayong nakita ko kung gaano pa rin kaapektado si Nate sa ex niya?

*phone rings*

MOM: hi anak. I miss you. Nasa Japan kami ngayon ng daddy mo.

ME: (inayos ko muna ang boses ko bago sumagot kay mommy) really mom? I miss you more. Kayo po ni dad.

MOM: do you wanna drop by? Kahit isang linggo lang, spend time with us anak.

ME: sige mommy. I'll be there tomorrow. I'll catch a morning flight.

MOM: Okay anak. see you. Mag-ingat ka.

Hindi ko alam kung tama ang desisyon kong pumunta muna ng Japan. Pero sa ngayon gusto mo munang lumayo. Hindi makapag-iisip si Nate kung parati akong abala at pahirap sa kanya.

I want to unwind, and besides I miss my parents so much.

*fast forward to Japan*

It's been a while since the last time I saw my parents. Kaya heto, todo bonding kaming tatlo. Kahit lagi silang wala, ni hindi ko naman naramdaman na mag-isa lang ako. They always make me feel loved and wanted.

Ilang araw na rin ako dito sa Japan. So far nag-eenjoy ako. Kahit paano nagkakaroon din ako ng chance na ayusin ang business ko, marami akong nakuhang fabrics and supplier for my boutique.

"Anak, are you okay?"

"Yes mommy. Sorry ha busy lang ako sa pag-aayos nitong fabrics."

"We're proud of you. You're making your own name anak. Pero dapat magboyfriend ka na din ha."

"Si mommy talaga. Siguro it's not yet for me to have a boyfriend."

Nasamid ako sa sinabi ni mommy. Bigla ko tuloy naalala si Nate. Naalala niya kaya ako? Hinanap kaya niya ako? o baka busy naman sya sa kakaisip dun sa Misty niya.

Oo nga pala, hindi ko naman sya boyfriend. He just said to give it a try. But he didn't said he loves me. He just started to like me. Then I don't know what happened after. :(

A/N:

AWWWW.. UMALIS NA LANG BIGLA SI MONIQUE. HINDI MAN LANG SILA NAGKAAYOS BEFORE SHE LEFT.

WILL THEY STILL BE OKAY? SEE U ON THE NEXT CHAPTER! :)
