Taken For Granted

CHAPTER 2: The Story

Today's a Saturday. Rest day for me since I got classes only from Monday to Friday. Palaging ganyan ang schedule ko since first year. Time lang ang nagbabago. Today is not a good day for me, though. I woke up with namamaga na eyes. Dude, I obviously cried. AGAIN. It's been, what? Freakin' 3 weeks after.

I dunno why. Sabi nga nila you shouldn't waste time and tears for something or someone not worth fighting for and having. Well then, what to do? It still hurts.

Ayan sige simulan ko na yung real kwento. Okay? Hay nako. Baliw na nga ata ako. Iiyak. Tapos tatawa or ngingiti. But, can you just bear with me, please? Thankyyy!

Eh ganito kasi. We're classmates. BS Accountancy. Block 1.

So, ayun. He is kinda known sa school since he graduated High School dito. He finished with flying colors (as in with Honors... not with cape and whatsoever). I came from another school... Yonari Academy. Hey, I am not Japanese nor have Japanese origin ha? Wala lang International School lang. Di naman masama diba?

Well, I graduated wih flying colors, too. Yeah!!!!!

Our story started when we were in first year college. Unusually, not as good as others' story. He is actually so mayabang kasi noon and I am so Conyo daw that it's irritating. I know. Sorry. As in, the way he talks, walks and acts. Nakakairita! Like, the guy I would never thought I'd fall in love with. He's so full of himself. Psh!

Since were classmates, during vacants or even during classes, he would kick my seat's arm rest! And when I asked him to stop, he'd just grin. Nakakaloko minsan eh!!! Papansin na ewan. Palibhasa kasi kilala nga. And others say na gwapo siya. Maybe because he is chinito, maputi, matangkad, and as I have said earlier, he graduated here with honors.

You know, he used to court a really close friend of mine from another block. The fact is, he doesn't even know that I, and the girl he likes, were friends. So, when he knew about me and my friend...the douche made me his kin. Kainis kaya! Ang yabang tapos makikipagclose??? Kapikon. Duh?!

One day, nalaman ko na sila na pala ng friend ko. That's after a month(?) of courting. The friend's name is Nina Santiago, by the way. They already knew each other since they went to the same kindergarten. Well, hindi ko na ididetalye yung kanila. Story ko 'to eh! Hmph.

So, to make their long story short, syempre Nina is my friend. We've been High School classmates. Aba syempre she tells me every ka-sweetan ni Adrian sa kanya. Pinapabasa niya yung texts, she even shows me the gifts (flowers and stuff) even nung nanliligaw pa lang si Adrian until they're together, may gifts. Of course they had fights. And since Adrian is my classmate, I am always the one na kumakausap sa kanila... 'bridge' kumbaga. Para magkaayos sila. Laging si Adrian ang kinakausap ko just for Nina.

But, my thoughts (and feelings) for him changed in a moment I never expected.
