September (Seasons of Love Series #1)

CHAPTER 2

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA"

Sige lang tawa lang kayo riyan. Mabilaukan sana kayo.

"Pero in fairness ha, ilang araw mo rin iniyakan 'yon." Nagpupunas pa ng luha itong si Hailee.

"Minahal niya rin naman kasi kahit na ganoon ang pag uugali ng taong 'yun." Sagot ni Sab. Thank you Sab dahil naiintindihan mo ako. "Pero ang weird pa rin talaga." Okay binabawi ko na.

"Makatawa kayo akala niyo naman ang perfect ng mga relationship niyo ah!" I mean, sino ba ang may perfect na relationship? Every couple has their own ups and downs, they have their own petty and big fights, some couple needed to end their relationship for God knows what reason even though they don't want it but they have to. Some people sacrifice, some people tend to let go because the more they hold on and fight the more their relationship slip away. Or maybe it's just me who had a lot of failed relationship that made me think this way.

Hailee scoffed. "Mahiya tayo kay Sab, tatlo lang naging relationship niyan kaysa sa atin."

Na agad naman sinegundahan ni Aika. "Hoy! Hindi rin naman marami ex ko ah! Kayong dalawa," tinuro pa kami ni Hailee. "Kayo ang maraming ex diyan 'no!"

I smirked. "Ayan pa rin si Skylar ang champion sa pa kontian ng ex."

"Don't call me that." Uh oh, Sab is using her cold voice. I smiled sheepishly.

"Ah oh, isa pa 'to bitter din." At dahil sa sinabi ni Hailee, nag bubugbugan na sila ngayon. Pinapanood nalang namin sila ni Aika, bahala silang dalawa riyan. Natigil lang sila dahil tumunog ang cellphone ni Sab.

Sinagot niya naman agad pero hawak niya pa rin ang buhok ni Hailee, ayan pahaba pa ng buhok ang bilis tuloy mahila. "Yow?" She squealed making us confused. "You're here na? Akala ko ba susunduin kita?" Biglang nawala ang ngiti niya. "Oh, okay sige. Ingat, see ya later." Binaba na niya ang phone at binitawan ang buhok ni Hailee.

"He's home Eka, what now?" A million dollar question I couldn't even answer.

I shrugged. "I don't know, I mean.. we're good. I don't know if we're friends? Ex lovers? Or just strangers. Who knows."

Aika sighed. "Well that's hard. To not know where you stand in his life."

That's what happens when you did something impulsive from the past. Everything that we do does have consequences, I learned it in a hard way though. Like, all of my escapades, all of the boys that I used to play with backfired and just like that— it scarred me way too deep.

"Ang nega naman ng vibes natin dito, stress na nga ako sa school works pati ba naman sa mga itsura niyo ngayon?" Biglang sabi ni Sab.

"Truth! Dapat nag iinom tayo e." Ani Hailee.

"Ang aga aga alak nasa utak mo, ano na ba bloodtype mo ha? Red horse? Empi? Fundador? Black label? O baka tequila?" Pambabara ni Aika kay Hailee.

"Gin lang." Tatawa tawang sagot ni Hailee.

Tumayo na si Sab at kinuha ang bag niya. "Tara na, gala nalang tayo tutal wala naman na akong susunduin."

Tumayo na rin kami lahat para sumunod sakanya. "Convoy nalang tayo?" Tanong ko.

Umirap sa akin si Sab. "Ay hindi, iwan natin yung tatlo tapos isa nalang gamitin natin."
