Chapter Seven: Den's problem

Chapter Seven: Den's problem

ALYSSA
It's been a month since nagaway si Den at sila Amy. Since that, kami nalang ni Den ang laging magkasama. Ako, siya, and si Ella. #TeamBesh. Hahaha. I realized one thing. Infatuation lang pala yung feelings ko for Kris. So in the end, hindi ako brokenhearted. Ang inaalala ko is Den. This past few weeks kasi she's been aloof to me. Pero hindi naman siya ganun kila Ella and sa other teammates namin. I wonder why? May problema ba siya? Hmm. Anyway, first semestral is almost over. UAAP is just around the corner, so lahat ng teams ngayon sobrang busy na sa training. Lalo na kami. Training sa umaga, tanghali, gabi.grabe diba? Sobrang busy namin. Meron pang finals. Gosh, stress overload. After talaga nito, i'll treat myself a drink. Haha! *bell rings* Yeah! Break na namin.

"Den, you up for lunch? Sabay tayoooo"

Sent. I textes her. Para naman may kasabay ako maglunch. I know her sched kasi kaya i know na free siya ngayon.

"Hey, Aly. Sorry we have a meeting with my blockmates e. You go ahead ha? Sorry. Babawi ako. Promise! :* "

Tsk. Ayan nanaman siya. Lagi na yan ganyan. Dati nama kahit may block meeting sila, she will ditch that para lang samahan ako. Ngayon, feeling ko she's just making that as an excuse. Nakakatampo ka na Den. Tsk. Makapunta na nga lang sa BEG.

(BEG)
Dito nalang ako kakain. Ang daming tao sa canteen e. Too much irritation. Pagpasok ko, nakita ko si Den kasama si Ella. Naguusap sila kaya di nila ko napansin. Tsk. Block meeting pala Dennise ha?

"Ells! Den! I thought may block meeting pa kayo?"

"Ah.. Eh.. Ano uhm. Nakancel.. Wala kasi yung isang kablock namin. Sorry Ly."

"Bakit nandito ka Aly?"

"Ah. Wala. Dito sana ko kakain ng lunch. MAGISA. Wala kasi akong kasama e."

"Oh. Sige. Una na kami ni Den ha? Magpapasama ako sa Rizal Library e. Bye Ly! "

"Ano, uhm.. Ly, bawi ako bukas ha? Bye!"

"Tsk. Kahit wag na. Bye."

Nakakainis. Feeling ko may tinatago tong dalawa na to sa akin eh. Hmmm.. Bahala siya sa buhay niya. Wala akong panahon makipaglaro sa mga ganyang bagay. *Phone rings*

"Hello?"

"*Sniffs* Uhm.. hello Ly?"

"Ate gretch? Oh bakit? Wait, are you crying?"

"Uhm.. Can you please go to the dorm? i just want someone to talk to.. please.."

What the hell happened to ate gretch? My break's done. I still have one class to go, which is philosophy. The hell i care with that subject. Ate gretch needs me.

"Alright, ate. I'm coming. But hey, please don't do aything stupid okay?"

"Okay ly. Thanks.. *sniffs*

I'm on my way to dorm when I suddenly bumped into Den.

"Hey ly! Sa dorm ka punta?"

"Ah yeah. Ikaw? Tumawag si Ate gretch eh."

"Oh. Ako rin sa dorm. Pasabay ha? Sorry pala kanina Aly. Si ella kasi eh nagpasa pa."

"No worries. Dennise, may problema ka ba?"

And with that, i saw her body stiffen. As if i asked her something horrible. I think i already know the answer.

"Uhm.. Yeah.. But don't worry. It's just about my self. :)"

"Okay."

(Dorm)
"Ate gretch, we're here na!"

"Ate gretty! Where are you?"

"Aly, you sure na nandito si Ate gretch? Parang wala naman tao eh.

"Yea yea. She called me and said na puntahan ko siya sa dorm. Wait, i'll check her room. "

Paakyat na ko and nakita ko na open yung door ng room ni Ate gretch and ate fille. Bumungad sa akin si Ate gretch na nakahiga sa sahig at nakakalat yung bottles of beer. Shit!

"Ate gretch! Hey.. Ate, wake up!"

"Aly, is everything alright up there? Nandyan ba si Ate gretch?"

"No. Den, help me please? Ate gretch did something horrible. Padala na rin ng meds and coffee. Thanks den!"

"Ate Gretch, wake up. We need to get you cleaned up baka maabutan ka pa ng ibang teammates natin"

"Ugh.. Aly? Wha..what happened?"

"i don't know. You called me, remember? And you were crying. We went to check up on you kaso ito nakahiga ka na sa floor."

"Bakit ka ba kasi naginom at dito pa sa dorm, ate gretch? Wala ka bang klase?" -Den

"Ganito talaga pag broken. And wala akong klase kasi free cut namin. Thanks, AlyDen."

"Broken? Porke broken iinom agad? Hindi ba pwedeng idaan sa usapan nalang?" -Den

"You know Den, minsan kasi its better to end up being drunk that to talk about it ng paulit ulit. At may mga bagay rin kasi na hindi na talaga nadadaan sa pakikipagusap. " -Aly

"She has a point, Den. "

"So ganun? Broken din ako, kaya kailangan maglalasing din ako?"

"BROKENHEARTED KA?!" -Aly/Gretch

"Ah eh ano.. Hindi ah! Sarcasm lang yun no!"

Tsk. Wahtever den. I gotcha this time. So, that's your problem. Broken ka? But why? Hmm. Another thing to find out: Kanino at bakit.

"Ahhh. Okay okay. Defensive ka agad besh. Nagtatanong lang kami ni Ate gretch eh. "

"Oo nga baby den. Hahaha!"

"Tsk. Bahala nga kayo jan."

Aba. Nagwalkout? Mamaya ka na den. Si ate gretch muna.

"So, ate gretch. Wha is your problem ba talaga? Spill it out. Or you want me to guess?"

"You can't guess, Aly. Haha!"

"Try me."

"Okay, guess what?"

"Ate fille and you broke up? And si ate fille and teckers na. Right?"

Natawa ko bigla kasi yung singkit na mata ni ate gretch, lumaki bigla. O.O. Hahaha!

"How did you know?! May nagsabi ba sayo?!"

"Nope. I just.. Ah let's just put it this way. I'm a great observer. I can see the way you both stare at each other's eyes. There's love and lust. Kaya hindi na ko magtataka if maging kayo man which is nangyari nga and now you two are over and she has a boyfriend na. Masakit, ate gretch?"

Biglang may tumamang pillow sa mukha ko! Aba! Batuhin ba naman ako ng unan eh siya na nga tong kinocomfort ko!

"what the hell was that for, Ate gretch?!"

"Gago ka e. Kita mong nagluluksa na ko dito tapos magtatanong ka pa kung masakit?! Tanga lang Ly? Magiinom ba ko ng ganito kung di ako nasaktan? "

"Oh. You have a point"

"Hahahahahahahaha!"

Sabay na kaming nagtawanan.

"Tara let's clean this up na. Baka maabutan pa tayo nila Dzi. Suyuin mo na si BESH MO. Haha. Go Aly."

I just groaned at her last statement. Bahala si Dennise sa buhay niya. Napakasungit eh wala naman akong ginagawa sa kanya.

~Part two of chapter seven will be on its way. Hahaha. Someone's excited sa update eh. Here it is! :) Enjoy. #CliffHanger
