"Let's take a pic!" Sigaw ng isa kong kaklase kaya naman nagsigawan silang lahat at nagtipon-tipon para kumuha ng groupie.

I smiled and pose like what my other classmates did as the camera was in the high angle.

Pagkatapos ay niyakap ako ni Camille habang suot-suot namin ang puting toga at cap. I hugged her back as I laughed when Diana joined us.

"Congrats, Hannel! We did it!" Nanginginig na ani Camille.

Diana kissed our cheeks and smiled warmly. "I love you, both. Congratulations!"

"Bitches, I love you, too."

Parehas silang napatingin sa'kin na para bang alien words ang sinabi ko dahilan para tumigil ang mundo nila.

"What a bad mouth, Acosta. You're ruining the moment..." Naiiling na ani Camille.

"Dapat ay may graduation din sa pagmumura..." Ngisi ni Diana. Umirap ako. Galing naman sa puso 'yon! "But I think that's the sweetest word I've ever heard today. Bitches."

Humalakhak kami at nag yakapang muli. Inilabas namin ang mga cellphone namin para kumuha ng picture dahil ip-post daw ni Diana sa kaniyang Instagram account.

Humampas ang pang umagang hangin na nagbigay sa'kin ng kakaibang maginhawang pakiramdam. Tumingin ako sa paligid at napapangiti.

Every parents are smiling ear to ear as the evident that they're proud, and every students are overwhelmed hearing the greetings of their parents and hugged them tight.

Wala ng sasaya sa pakiramdam na ma-appreciate ang paghihirap na ginawa mo, na sa pagbati lamang ay tumatalon na ang puso mo. That there are someone you could share your happiness, that you could share your achievements with.

Inilibot ko ang paningin sa paligid. He really left. I didn't even hear his name in our graduation ceremony as they gave us the certificate and medals. His presence isn't also here. No one even try to question his absence.

As if no one ever know who he is. As if he never existed at all.

Napapikit ako nang lumakas ang hampas ng hangin sa aking mukha dahilan kaya nagulo ang nakalugay kong buhok habang suot ang sumbrero ng toga.

I waited, Blair. To know your reasons, at least to hear it from you. But I think... right now... I am obeying what you said. I am letting you go. I don't want to be this stupid who wait and let my world stop just to wait for you.

I'm freeing myself from stupidity.

"Hannel, alis na ako, ah? Hinihintay na ako ni Van at Mommy sa labas, e." She kissed my cheeks and waved her hands. Tumango lamang ako at ngumisi.

Nililigawan na ni Van si Camille at hindi ako makapaniwalang dumaan talaga siya sa magulang ni Camille! Not that it was impossible. I mean, sa tagal kong pagkakakilala kay Van. He had a lot of exes back then but heck, he never tried to do that courtships thing!

Nagpaalam na rin si Diana at may importante pa raw siyang aasikasuhin. Pumunta ako sa pwesto ng pamilya ko kung saan nakikipagkwentuhan sa mga Montazon. Sinalubong ako ni Hazel at binati. Hinawakan ko ang malambot at maliit niyang kamay at sabay kaming naglakad palapit kina Mommy.
