Crazier [a text talk novel]

01

"First heartbreak? *thinks* parang wala pa."

"Ricci was a happy memory kasi eh. He's growing as a person even more when I got out of the picture months ago, same as me. It may not be his intention to lead me on and end things na, but I'm proud of his growth. Oh diba? Parang ex, pero hindi. Sabi sayo okay na ko eh!" *makes face*

"I'm proud of him like I've always l been. Mukha lang siyang itlog sa haircut nya, but he looks so happy more than he's ever been. He's destined for UP, I know he'll excel and succeed. Find and be found by love, kahit nakalampas na ko. Joke lang!"

"Hintayin ko daw sya at hihintayin nya ko na matapos namin mga pangarap namin sa buhay. That was closure, I'm certain. I saw it in his eyes. His words meant something more, and I knew he knows I won't be happy about it. That night in Rizal was the last time I saw him and talked to him. He cut connections, blocked me and even ignored me in person. I was okay about it at first, but I realized I was and won't be able to absorb it fully. It was my reality of life. I was okay but never realized how quick everything escalated up to that point. Okay lang naman, basta mas okay siya. Basta wala syang regrets and it makes him feel more liberated."

"Any plans of reconnecting? Do you plan to attend one of his games soon?"
*umiling*
"I might gravitate back to him. Baka rin may makita akong di ko magustuhan dun. Basta. As far as I know he's good, then I'm good too. Okay na yun. Alam nya naman yun. Nakasuporta lang ako dito. Di nya kita, pero nandito lang ako. I will always look after Ricci. He'll always be a happy memory. He broke my heart, pero di nalang sya counted." *nods* "Wala na yun. Okay naman na siguro kaming pareho sa kung nasaan kami ngayon."
