What Separates Us

19

(Janella's POV)

A new day for us but not a good one. Jane and me got back together and for that I am very happy, pero 'yung kung panong nasira kami at sa nalaman naming lahat kahapon, it pained me.

Kaya ito kami ngayon, Jane and I pretending na hindi pa kami okay. Just so dad will think na nag succeed siya sa gusto niyang mangyari.

Luna will tell him na hiwalay na talaga kami ni Jane, then after, she'll have to do a secret camera recording meeting with my dad para makuha 'yung pag amin niya na inutusan niya si Luna to do what she did. Pati na ang parteng she threatened Luna in exchange of Lili's safety.

She'll also have to confront him about what she found out. Kailangan makuha lahat sa camera ang pag confess niya, a big evidence against him.

Lili and Pao's mom will be Luna's lawyer, it's a shame na dad ko si Rex but I cannot change that, pero ang mga ginawa niya, makakaya ko pa sigurong ayusin at bigyan ng hustisya.

"ate Jea." Lili spoke beside me kaya tinignan ko siya.

"hmm?"

"alam kong magulo ang situation right now, pero kasi ate.. kailangan ko ng tulong." she said and I nodded at her.

Since kailangan ngang magpanggap na break na talaga kami ni Jane, hati ang grupo ngayon. Or more like, si Joj at Lili lang ang kasama ko. While Jane has Josh, Juls, Liz and Pao. Si Luna naman, she's somewhere, she's supposed to take videos and pictures right now as a proof na hindi na kami nagko-communicate ni Jane.

"buti nga sa kanya, siya nalang ang mag-isa ngayon.. tsaka yang best friend niya, though bakit anjan si Lili? eh yung kuya niya andun kina Jane." rinig kong tsismis ng isang estudyante.

Right. Kailangan ipakalat din sa buong school ang tungkol samin ni Jane, just so if dad tells one of his people na mag double check kung totoo sinasabi ni Luna, it wouldn't be a problem anymore.

Hindi nga lang mako control ang magiging reaction ng mga tao. Especially these people na hanggang ngayon bitter pa din sa fact na Jane and I are together.

"for sure naaawa lang yang si Lili sa kanya.. even si Joj, ikaw ba naman magkaroon ng best friend na zero.. like, walang pera, walang jowa, sino bang hindi maaawa diba?" another student said.

God. Kung pwede lang din talagang isampal sa kanila 'yung shares ko from mom eh baka umiyak sila.

"ate Jea, 'wag mo silang pansinin ha?" Lili whispered and I nodded.

"they make my blood boil, but alam kong walang mangyayaring maganda kung papatulan ko sila." I said and Lili nodded.

"by the way, ano ba 'yung tulong na kailangan mo?" I asked as I saw Joj na pabalik na dito from ordering our meals.

"pano mo ba malalaman kung genuinely gusto mo 'yung tao?" Lili asked and I immediately looked back at her.

She must be asking about Luna. Hmm.

"well, I honestly don't know. sa case namin ni Jane, it was easy for me to figure it out kasi my heart's not waiting for anyone eh, wala din akong ibang gusto.." I answered and she seemed surprised.

"you knew?" she asked, as if we're understanding each other.

Though totoo naman. I know about her feelings for Josh. The only reason why hindi ko din ma recognize na may feelings nga talaga siya for him is because she's different when she's with Luna or whenever si Luna ang pinag-uusapan namin.

"honestly, kahit ako naguguluhan sa'yo." I told her and she looked confused.

"oy, may cheka ako." Joj suddenly said as she sat in front of us.
