Kabanata 3

Lately, lagi kaming nagtatalo ni Bea. Kahit simpleng bagay lang ay pinagtatalunan pa namin. I'm so close to leaving her but I can't. Alam niyo yun? Yung kahit na dahil lang sa away kaya kami naguusap ay okay lang.

It was already 8pm and I'm here sa Gesu. Trying to figure something.

"Oh, hi Maddie."

I looked up and saw Ish. "Hi."

"What's up? You look really tired ha?"

I smiled at him. "Tired. Practice."

Natawa siya. "Buhay student athletes."

"Sucks, right? Pero mahal natin ang sports natin."

"Right. Hey, it's late na. Aren't you gonna comeback sa dorm?"

I shook my head. "Dito muna ako."

"Okay. But text me when you got home. Okay?"

I nodded. Ish went out and I was left with no one. I sighed. This is the down side of being alone. You've got time to think about all of your decisions; that were made and about to make.

Sometimes, there are things na ayaw mong mangyari but fate will play his part and will broke you into pieces. Sad but that's the truth.

"What are you thinking nanaman?"

Sa sobrang gulat ko dahil sa nagsalita ay napatayo ako. "Kaaaaat!!!!"

Tumawa siya bigla. "What?"

"What are you doing here?"

"I looked for you. Kasi Bea wasn't there and you too. I thought you were together."

Napailing nalang ako. "Impossible."

"It is. Remove the IM." She emphasized the word IM.

"Ewan ko sayo."

"No, seriously. Bea's nowhere to be found." Kat said. "Jho's looking for her too."

"Labas na ako doon, Kat."

She sighed. "Still, she's our batchie."

"Ano naman gagawin natin?"

"Let's look for her."

"No."

"Maddie!!!"

"Kat, I said no."

"Why?"

"Ayoko ng away, Kat. I just want a peaceful night."

"Do you think it'll be a peaceful night if Bea's missing?"

"Bea's not missing, Kat."

She sighed. "Why are you so hard on her?"

"I'm just stating the fact."

Magsasalita pa sana siya nung biglang magring yung phone ko. I was hesitant to answer it kasi it was Bea. Kat looked at me.

"Answer it."

Wala naman akong choice kundi sagutin yung tawag.

"Hello?"

"Good evening ma'am. Is this Madeliene?"

"Uh, yes? Who's this?"

"Ah, ma'am this is Trixie. Valkyrie's manager. The owner of this phone is drunk."

"What?!" Napatayo ako bigla sa sinabi niya.

"She was crying and telling somethings po. We can't calm her kaya tinawagan po namin ang nasa speed dial niya. Can you come over po?"
