G's Point of View:

After my last conversation with Khei, hindi na namin nabanggit pa ulit ang tungkol kay RC. She didn't even give me the chance to mention his name. Naiintindihan ko naman siya eh. Gusto lang niyang tumigil ako sa kakaasa. Ayaw lang niyang nasasaktan ako. Honestly, I can deal with the pain but not with a life without him. I'd choose a lifetime of pain with him than a lifetime of freedom from pain without him.

"Baby!"

Sabay na napalingon kami ni Khei nang marinig si Fyle na tinatawag ako. Shemaaay. Why haven't I reprimanded him about that endearment? Now, it's too late because Khei is now showing off a sad face. What annoyed me are these flirty girls giggling over him. As if! Specter would never like them!

"I miss you, babydoll!" he whispered when he leaned forward and handed me a red rose.

Hindi ako nakagalaw. Nakatoon lang ang tingin ko kay Khei na pasulyap-sulyap sa'kin at sa bulaklak.

"Hey? Why are you so surprised? It's not like this is the first time I've done something like this."

True. He always gives me flowers or buys me the things I love but I would just consider them being him. He annoys me and makes peace the next. Today is exactly not anything like those days.

"Bunny, are you okay?"

Isang tikhim mula sa likuran namin ang nagpagising ng ulirat ko. I don't have to look around to see who it is, I can recognize him instantly.

"G. Mauuna na siguro ako. RC and I are going to talk about something important," pagpaalam ni Khei.

Hindi ako sumagot. Tinanggap ko nalang ang iniabot na bulaklak ni Fyle sa'kin.

"T—Thanks, Spec."

"It's time to go home. Shall we go?"

Tinanguan ko siya. Agad na tumayo ako at dahil mas mabilis ang mga hakbang namin ni Fyle, naunahan namin sina RC at Khei na makarating sa parking lot.

"Hoy. Ok ka lang?" tanong ni Fyle nang makapasok na kami sa kotse.

"O—oo naman."

"D'you like the flower? Ninakaw ko 'yan sa school garden niyo. Haha. Sinita nga ako nong guard," tumatawang kwento niya. Sinubukan kong makitawa pero tila napansin niyang pilit iyon.

"Sira ulo ka talaga kahit kailan."

"I'd rather be one if it could make you smile than to be sane and become the reason of your pain."

Heto na naman siya. Bigla-biglang sumeseryoso. Nakakaasar dahil kinakabahan ako sa tuwing nagiging ganito siya.

"Spec? Um... What do you think of Khei?" I asked to divert his attention.

"Are you referring to cupcake?"

"Why would you call her cupcake? She's not anything that looks like food. My bestfriend is pretty!"

He laughed at my statement defending Khei.

"Chill." He even raised his hands up as an act of surrender. "Her chubby cheeks make me think of cupcakes and she's sweet."

"She's adorable but cupcakes aren't chubby, you jerk."

"Not for me."

"She is really adorable though."

"That, too."

"And she's irresistibly cute."

"Yep."

"Charming."

"Very."

"Will you court her and make her your girlfriend?"
