PATH TWENTY-TWO

A/N: Ay hindi mo keri may update ako for today's video, enjoy reading galaxies! Lovelots!

"Xirid."

"Frank?!"

ANONG GINAGAWA NIYA RITO? BAKIT HINDI KO ALAM NA NARITO SIYA? Grabe makapag worry ah. Kala mo talaga.

Paano na lang kapag nakita siya ni Zean, juice colored nga naman oh.

"Bakit nandito ka? Bakit hindi ko alam na pupunta ka?" I asked once I recovered myself.

"Uh, sorry about that, hindi ka kasi nag-reply sa text ko at hindi mo rin sinasagot tawag ko, and kahapon pumunta ako rito, sabi wala ka raw. Kaya naman pumunta ulit ako ngayon kasi nag-aalala ako sa 'yo." Ang haba ng explanation ah. I felt sorry for him.

Napasapo na lang ako sa noo ko at umiling, ano ba naman 'yan Xian!

"Gosh! I'm sorry, hindi ko na kasi ginamit 'yung phone ko, tinatamad na rin kasi ako. And may pinuntahan lang ako kahapon." I explained to him.

He just nodded at me, inalok ko siyang kumain ng breakfast baka hindi pa siya kumakain nakakahiya naman.

"No, it's okay, sumaglit ako sa Starbucks kanina, I already ate there." He said while smiling.

Nakakahiya anong gagawin ko? Should I tell to him na si Zean ang pipiliin ko? Ang hirap maging maganda, ang hirap na may ma-reject ka.

Dumating si Ysmael, patay na, botong boto 'to kay Zean e, baka sungitan niya si Frank or kung anong sabihin niya. Pero umupo lang ito sa kabilang sofa at nanood ng T.V.

At dahil mukhang hindi kami makakapag-usap ng maayos dito, mabuti pang yayain ko na lang siya sa backyard.

"Tara sa backyard, may sasabihin ako sa 'yo." I plainly said.

Maybe it's time, para hindi na rin siya masaktan at umasa pa. Habang naglalakad kami sa maliit na hardin dito sa backyard. Nagsimula na akong magsalita.

"Frank..." The first word came out from me.

He faced me and smiled at me. "So, ano 'yun? May sasabihin ka ba? It's important?" He asked continuously.

I took a deep breath.

"Uhh, sorry Frank..."

Gosh, I'm so nervous! Took a deep breath again.

"I already made a choice."

I looked away and closed my eyes. But my eyes just opened widely when I heard what just he said.

"So, it's Zean? Am I right?"

How? How did he know? Boys instinct? Or sobrang obvious lang na si Zean talaga ang gusto ko? I felt sorry for him, really bad.

"It is ok Xirid, I already knew it, at alam ko na kahit wala akong pag-asa sa 'yo, sinubukan ko pa rin, thank you for giving me a chance to prove myself to you."

Nakakahiya, nakakakonsensya. Ayoko ng ganito, pero I need to make a decision.

"I'm sorry, Frank." Naiiyak ako damn!

"No, you don't have to, be happy, alam kong magiging masaya ka sa kaniya." His smile was broke! Ayoko ng ganito, ayokong makasakit!

I'm sorry, Frank...

He faced me again. "You deserve each other. Congrats." He said plainly.

He turned his back at me and said. "Sige, uuwi na ako."
