Lauvien:
Guys
Sa November 3 na siya ililibing.
Shanaia:
God, I can't believe this.
Bibiyahe na agad ako bukas pabalik ng Manila
Nakakalungkot isipin na nawalan na talaga tayo ng kaibigan 😭
Evelyn:
This still feels like a bad dream. Ang hirap paniwalaan.
Our group's not called Four Cheese anymore. It'll be just us three from now on ☹️
Shanaia:
Mula ngayon, it'll be painful to eat Four Cheese-flavored pizza kahit na favorite pa natin 'to 😭
Grabe, ilang araw na akong umiiyak!
Evelyn:
Same
Every time I remember a memory with her, my tears just burst.
Kahit pa nasa public place ako.
Shanaia:
Ikaw, Love?
Kumusta?
Lauvien:
Hindi na ako makaiyak
Naubusan na 'ko ng luha.
Ang bigat sa puso.
It's even more frustrating when you want to cry your emotions out but you can't anymore
Ang sakit sakit.
Evelyn:
Sobra.
Lauvien:
It's just hard losing someone you've spent the most of your time with
Shanaia:
Stop it, you're making me cry again!
Lauvien:
Sobrang bigat sa pakiramdam
And guys, may sasabihin ako.
Evelyn:
About your promise?
Lauvien:
Yes
Evelyn:
Go.
Lauvien:
Both families agreed that I'll do it. Sabi nila, it's for Kylo's recovery.
His condition stabled na but they don't know yet when he'll wake up. Basta it can be any time from now daw.
Shanaia:
Shit, mababaliw talaga si Ky kapag nalaman niya 'yung tungkol sa girlfriend niya 😭
He'll lose his fucking mind
Lauvien:
When he wakes up, they can't risk him going crazy when he finds out about Cath's death. They don't want him stressed over that fact.
Dapat daw emotionally, mentally, and physically stable lang siya during the process of recovery.
Evelyn:
So that explains why you need to temporarily hide the truth.
Lauvien:
That's why they want me to lie. It'll be temporary, they said. Ilang weeks lang daw or months. Depende kung kailan maka-fully recover si Ky.
Lahat tayo... magsisinungaling tayo.
Lalo na ako.
Shanaia:
Bale habang nasa America siya, dito ka sa Pilipinas.
You'll pretend that you're Cath.
Lauvien:
Yeah. To save Kylo, I have to lie that she's still alive and well to encourage him to heal... to give him hope.
But I also know that someday, he'll find out that I'm the one responding to his messages for a lover he didn't know was already dead.
Someday, he'll be really mad at me.
Siguro hinding-hindi niya ako mapapatawad.
