Beardy's Love Imagines (One shot stories)

Powerless

"You said manonood ka."

She said habang nakahalukipkip ang mga braso.

"Look, I just can't leave kanina. Biglaan yung practice."

"Pero nag promise ka kasi."

Alam ko na naiinis na siya kasi pikon na ang boses niya and at the same time I know that she is fighting tears to fall.

"Look Bae, yun ang consequence namin kapag natalo kami sa game right? That instead of having our day ahead after the game is hindi, we need to practice instantly."

I am almost pleading, kasi ni hindi man lang niya ako tinitignan, inilalayo niya pa ang braso while I am trying to hold her.

"Alam mo ba yung feeling na natatalo na nga kami tapos tuwing titingin ako sa side nila Dani wala ka doon, hintay ako ng hintay, gustong gusto ko ng maiyak pero pinipigilan ko lang."

They lost game 1 to La Salle kanina lang, I promised her to watch the game dahil umaga naman ang game ko, at hindi ko naman inaasahan talaga na matatalo kami.

"Sorry na talaga Bae, wala naman gustong mangyari yun."

"You could have excuse yourself to Coach Tab, bakit ako? Lagi ako nasa games mo, I even volunteer pa na mauna sa scrimages just to be able to make it to your game kahit 4th Quarter na."

"Bae naman, sinusumbatan mo ba ako?"

"Alam mo ba ibig sabihin ng Bae? It means BEFORE ANYTHING ELSE, kaya wag kang maka BAE BAE diyan."

Napikon na ako, kahit yata anong paliwanag ko wala namang mangyayari eh.

"Ok, Bea hindi lang ikaw ang natalo today. I know the feeling pero don't make me feel too bad naman sana dahil lang hindi ako nakapunta sa game mo, hindi ko naman sinasadya yun,  at lalong hindi ko sinadyang magpatalo para lang hindi ako makanood sa game mo."

I stood up, look at her one more time, wala siyang reaction at naka tutok lang ang mga mata sa pader. Kung galit siya, well disappointed ako, at pareho lang kaming physically and emotionally drained.

"Aalis na ako, total wala ka naman yatang planong pakinggan ako."

She didn't said or do anything. Hindi na ako lumingon at naglakad na palabas ng Eliazo pabalik sa parking ng sasakyan ko, uuwi nalang muna ako ng Cainta. Badtrip!

Maddie's POV:

Bea has been struggling kanina pa sa spiking, napipikon na siya alam ko, she was never smiling and repeatedly signaling Coach Tai to give her another round.

Mich: What is her problem?

Madz: I kinda have that same question in my head now.

Jho: I think Papi Turts nanaman yan.

Jules: Why do love to be that hard?

Ana: Sira! Hindi naman noh, look at Jia naman and Jho both happy.

Jules: Well then she's different pala.

Mich: Oh well look who's coming.

From sitting on the gym floor we all look at the direction of the gym door. Papasok na ang Ateneo Basketball Men's team. I look for Turts and yeah by the look at him mukhang may LQ nga sila. Naka simangot ang loko at mukhang beast mode.

ALE: Hi Turts!!

We gleemly greeted him, pero isang matipid na ngiti lang ang sagot sa amin. At dumiretso na sa kabilang side ng gym.
