One more shot, another round. Let's make a night you won't remember. I'll be the one you won't forget. - Timber
Chapter 24
Maybe in my past life I was a nice person. Or maybe I was someone that was taken for granted. Or maybe, just maybe, I'm the kind of person that's in between. Cause the way people see it, what you are on your past life would be the opposite of what you will be on your present life.
In my present life, I betrayed that one person who trusted me. I betrayed that one person who was my helping hand in all the troubles I've been through.
"Kim.. I'm sorry." Hindi ko alam kung naintindihan ba niya yung sinabi ko dahil nahihirapan na akong huminga dahil sa pag-iyak ko.
Hindi siya sumagoy, bagkus, hinigpitan niya ang yakap niya sa akin at hinimas ang likod ko.
At that moment, pakiramdam ko bumalik na kami sa dati. Ako na ulit si Ciara at siya na ulit si Kim. Magkaibigan. Magbestfriend. Magkasamang lumaki. Magkasamang napasok sa paaralan. Sa mismong oras na yun pakiramdam ko nawala ang isang napakalaking tinik sa pagkatao ko.
"Okay lang. Kalimutan mo na yun." Kim comfortingly said.
"Let's eat, ladies." Brian said behind my back. I caught a glimpse of him and he was smiling happily. Para bang masaya din siya kasi bati na kami ng bestfriend ko.
A while after, we were waiting for our food to be served. Brian did most of the talking. Puro business matters lang naman yung sinabi niya. Wala ba siyang buhay outside the office?
"Bat ba puro trabaho yang sinasabi mo? Hindi ka ba nauumay? On the job ka na nga ng 24/7, hanggang dito ganun pa din?" Reklamo ni Kim.
Nginitian nalang siya ni Brian. And then silence fell again.
Biglang tumunog ang phone ni Brian. "Excuse, I just need to answer this." Then I saw him grinned at me.
After Brian left nagpatuloy lang kami sa pagkain ni Kim. No one dared to talk first. I wanted to start the conversation pero hindi ko alam kung paano.
"Ciara.." Kim said, breaking the silence between us. I looked at her and she's smiling.
And all the guilt that I have in me flashed right before my very eyes. Why it all started with Terrence. Why did It happen. Why did I betray her?
"How are you?" She asked, still smiling.
Alam niyo ba ung feeling na sobrang laki ng guilty feeling na nararamdaman ko, pero yung taong kausap ko, okay na. Parang wala na siyang pinoproblema. She's happy.
While I was left to be in misery.
Tumulo ang luha ko.
