Secret Love Song (JhoBea)

Chapter 6

BEA'S POV

"What the hell are you doing here?!" I shouted at her and she just gave me her f*cking paawa look.

"I just thought you...want...me...here." She was just about to cry so I don't have a choice now but to keep myself calm.

"Diba sinabi ko na sayo na wag kang magpapakita kay Loui-- kay Jho?!"

"She have to see me. It's for her own good." She plainly said kaya napahawak nalang ako sa ulo ko.

Ugh. What now? Alangan namang iwanan ko tong babaeng to dito sa labas?

"Fine. Just don't talk to her."

Hinila ko siya papasok sa venue. Malayo palang kami ay kitang-kita ko na agad si Jho na kausap si Jia.

Bigla namang kumapit sa braso ko si EJ. I stared at her as if I'm saying to let me go but she just smiled and tighten her grip. Sheesh.

Napatingin ulit ako sa gawi nila Jho pero wala na yung teammates namin. I was about to go to her but an a**hole just sat beside her.

I unconsciously took a deep breath. "Let them talk. Marci just missed her, you know."

Hinila ko siya palayo kung saan hindi kami makikita ni Jho.

JHO'S POV

"Just look at them. They look happy."

Kanina pa ako naiinis dito sa kinauupuan ko dahil sa nakikita ko. Grr. Kung makakapit naman yung babaeng yun akala mong ahas. Bwisit!

Dagdag pa tong Marci na to na kanina pa bulong ng bulong sa tabi ko. Parang bubuyog.

Biglang hinawakan ni Bea si EJ at naglakad palayo. Okay? Argh!! San naman pupunta yun?!

"Kainis." Bulong ko sa sarili ko.

"You were sayin?"

"Tigil-tigilan mo nga ako Marci. Bakit ba ang kulit mo? Di ba sinabi ko na sayo, ayoko sayo. Anong salita ba ang hindi mo maintindihan dun?!" I crossed my arms out of frustration. Nakakainis kasi. Para bang nananadya pa siya!

"You know I can't do that." He took a deep breath kaya napatingin ako sa kanya. "You're mom told me to take care of you. Malaki ang utang na loob ko sa kanya kaya hindi pwedeng hindi ko gawin ang pabor na hinihingi niya."

"Okay. Given na malaki ang utang na loob mo kay Mama but seriously?! You don't have to annoy me like almost everyday! I can take care of myself. I'm not a kid anymore." I looked away and sighed. "Besides, Bea is with me. What could happen?"

"You can't trust her."

Napakunot ang noo ko dahil sa sinabi niya. What does he mean? "Kung sinasabi mo yan para layuan ko siya at mapalapit sayo, well sorry, it's no use."

"Just...trust me."

"The last time I checked you're not trustworthy anymore."

"Pwede bang kalimutan nalang natin yun?" He looked at me directly in the eyes. I can feel his pain, his sadness, his...emptiness.

But no. Wag kang magpapadala sa paganyan-ganyan niya Jho. "Sorry. Just leave me alone."

He sighed and stood up. No words, he just walked away.

I'm sorry Marci, but we just can't be friends again by now... Maybe tomorrow, or the other day...just not now.

"Jho! Say hi Jho!" A guy just approached me with his phone.
