Jeron: Nakakahalata na kasi ako eh.
Thomas: A-Ano naman yun paps?
Jeron: Kasi yung mga kinikilos mo, ibang iba. Nakakapagtaka lang.
Thomas: Look, Je. I don't wanna cause any trouble between you and Mika. Ang akin lang is -----
Jeron: Teka. Ano pinagsasabi mo?
Thomas: Ano ba pinaparating mo?
Jeron: May mahalaga kasi akong itatanong sayo.
Thomas: Ano?
Jeron: Basta kahit anong mangyare, bestfriends parin tayo ha.
Thomas: ("Wait. Is he serious? Bakit ang chill niya?!")
Jeron: I can accept you. Whatever you are.
Thomas: ("Ano daw?")
Jeron: Mahal mo ba -------
Thomas: Oo.
Jeron: ("Shit. It is real. Kala ko biro biro lang..")
Thomas: Dati ko pa tinatago yung mga niraramdam ko.
Jeron: Paps, I'm sorry. Pero alam mong lalakeng lalake ako. At si Mika lang yung mahal ko.
Thomas: ("Wait. What?")
Jeron: We can still be bros right? After all, may pinagdaanan rin naman tayo.
Thomas: ("What is he talking about?!")
Jeron: Nakakahalata na kasi ako na clingy ka na sakin. And when I'm with Mika, parang selos na selos yung muka mo. I hope you understand na ------
Thomas: Wait, hold on. Anong pinagsasabi mo?
Jeron: Come on. Stop pretending. Alam kong noon mo pa tinatago yung feelings mo para sakin.
Thomas: WHAT?
Jeron: Diba bakla ka?
Thomas: *chuckles* Are you serious?
Jeron: Gusto ko lang ma clear out between us.
Thomas: *chuckles* Bro, there is no US.
Jeron: *pats thom's shoulder* I know it's tough. You'll get over it soon.
Thomas: *binatukan si je* I'm not gay!
Jeron: What?
Thomas: Di ako bakla. Are you kidding me? I mean.. ganito ka-gwapo, bakla?!
Jeron: *binatukan si thom* Mmm. Lumakas bigla.
Thomas: You really thought I was? *laughs*
Jeron: Yung mga kinikilos mo kasi! *laughs*
Thomas: Tss. Ewan ko sayo. Tara pasok na tayo. Kala ko iba yung sasabihin mo sakin eh, kinabahan tuloy ako. *chuckles and walks papunta sa room, leaving je behind*
Jeron: Ano ba akala mo?
Thomas: *nagstop sa may pinto* .......
Jeron: Huy!
Thomas: Ah eh. Wala wala. Forget what I said. *walks in the room, leaving je outside*
Jeron's POV: Hmm.. Can it be? Aish aish. Stop it Jeron. Thomas is your bestfriend. He won't do such a thing. It can't happen....... It WON'T happen.
After their break, pumunta naman agad ang mga boys sa room ng girls. --- @ Girl's Room
(A/N: Forgot to mention... Sila Mika, Ara, Cienne, Steph & Kim lang may alipin)
Mika: Psst, Kim.
Kim: Oh?
Mika: *nguso kay steph & van*
Steph & Van;
Steph: Nakakaiyak naman tong pinapanood natin. Haha. *wipes off tears*
Van: Oo nga eh. Haha. *sniff*
Steph: Haha. Ang cute mo! *pinches van's nose*
Van: Aray aray aray! *smiles*
Cienne & Jikko;
Cienne: Jikko, alika nga dito.
Jikko: Bakit po?
Cienne: *whispering something to jikko*
Steph & Van;
Steph: *laughs*
Van: Ang cute naman ng tawa mo, parang bata. *laughs*
Steph: Ah ganun? *kiniliti si van*
Habang nagkukulitan ang dalawa, bigla nalang tinapunan ng volleyball ni Jikko si Van sa ulo.
Van: Aray! Sino nagbato nun?
Jikko: It was her idea! *turo kay cienne*
Cienne: Baka kasi nakakalimutan mo kung sino nililigawan mo eh, pinaalala ko lang. *fake smile*
Mika & Jeron;
Jeron: Miks. Tama na, pagod na ako.
Mika: Wag ka tumigil.
Jeron: Eh kanina pa to eh!
Mika: Kaya mo yan.
Jeron: Ikaw kaya mag masahe ng paa? Yung totoo miks, naligo ka?
Mika: *binatukan si je* 1 more hour!
Kim & Gian: (naka simsuit at humarap sa mga tao sa kwarto)
Everyone: Ano ginagawa niyo dyan?
Gian: See, Kim and I made a deal. Palakihan kami ng mga muscles. If I win, siya na yung alipin ko. And if she wins, ako parin alipin niya.
Bullies: *nagkatinginan* GOOD LUCK!
Gian: *looks at kim*
Kim: *evil grin*
So they started to show off their muscles. Sad to sa but Kim had much more muscles to show off. Haha!
Boys: Wawang Gian... *laughs*
Mich: Grabe. Mas batak pa to si Kimmy kaysa sa boyfriend ko.
Everyone: *laughs*
Gian: I'll get you for this, Kim!
Kim: Kung kaya mo! *belat*
Everyone: Owww! Hard! *laughs*
Van: Apply cold compress to the burnt area. *laughs*
Ara & Thom;
Ara's POV: Kanina pa tahimik tong si Thomas ha? Mukang problemado eh. Matagal tagal na rin siyang nakayuko. After 3765787867456676 years, nagsalita na rin siya.. Pero mukang seryoso.
Thomas: Can we talk outside?
Ara: Ayoko nga, Baka rapin mo lang ako.
(A/N: Rapin? Tama ba? Lol. Basta you get what I mean haha.)
Thomas: Asa ka naman noh. Basta, sumama ka nalang sakin.
Ara: Ano bang paguusapan natin?
Thomas: Something... important.
Ara's POV: He started to pull my hand patayo at palabas ng kwarto. Andun parin yung spark. I still tingle everytime he touches me. Why?
Outside the room ---- They were by the window sa may hallway
Ara: Bakit mo ko dinala dito?
Thomas: I want to apologize.
Ara: For what?
Thomas: For being a jerk. For being such a baby.
Ara: Thom, I don't understand.....
Thomas: *holds ara's hand*
Ara: H-Huh?
Thomas' POV: I couldn't help myself. All the pain I hid from her and from everybody, started to show off by tears.
Thomas: Nagdududa ako.. Nalilito.
Ara: Na ano? Na tao ka? Ako rin, nagdududa.
Thomas: Ara, I'm serious. I love you.
Ara: ......
Thomas: But..... I'm inlove with Mika too.
Ara's POV: That moment. That moment when you just stand there... Clueless, hurt & confused. Just standing there, crying. Like an idiot. Hoping what he said wasn't true.
Thomas' POV: Not a single word was uttered.... Just tears.
Thomas: I-I can't do this.... *runs away & leaves ara*
Let's follow Thomas... Tumakbo siya papuntang kwarto nila. He got his bags and left. Balik tayo kay Ara.
Ara's POV: He left me standing there.... Alone & afraid. Questions started to struck my head... Hurtful ones. But the one that struck me the most was... "Bakit si Mika pa?"
That. That made me sit there by the window, crying. Thinking to myslef that I'll never be good enough.... That I'll never be better than second best.
.... Meanwhile ....
Thomas' POV: I don't know where I'm going. Wherever my feet can take me. As long as it takes me far from here. I just need time to think. Time to unwind... Time to find out the real me. Cuz' I'm tired of everything. Tired of being confused. Tired of being... tired.
Haharapin ko si Ara. Haharapin ko si Jeron. Haharapin ko si Mika. Haharapin ko silang lahat. Maybe someday.... Just not now.
Hours later.....
@ Girl's Room
Kim: Teka asan yung dalawa?
Cienne: Baka nakipaglandian lang sa labas! *laughs*
Van: Wait, check ko sa room namin.
Everyone: ANG DUMI NG UTAK MO VAN! *laughs*
Van: Hey hey hey. Wala akong sinasabi. Kayo ang madumi ang utak! *laughs* (leaves)
Mika: Check ko nalang sa hallway. (leaves)
Pag punta ni Mika sa may hallway, ayun nakita nga niya si Ara. Nakatiklop ang mga legs at nakayuko ang ulo habang umiiyak.
Mika: Ara! *tinabihan si ara*
Ara: *hugs mika* M-Mika...
Mika: Ano nanyare?!
Ara: S-Si Thom. *cries*
Mika: Ano ibig mong sabihin?
Ara: *kwinento ang nanyare*
Mika's POV: Nothing's worst than seeing your bestfriend crying infront of you. Lalo na at alam mo na kasalanan mo kung bakit pumapatak mga luha niya.. Kung bakit siya nasasaktan ngayon.
Mika: I-I'm sorry. *cries*
Ara: *wipes of ye's tears* It's not your fault.
Mika: It is. If it wasn't for me, it wouldn't have ended up like this. Kung hindi ko lang -------
LS: *biglang sulpot* W-What's going on?
Hindi nakasalita ang dalawa. Bigla namang dumating ang mga boys except kay Van.
Boys: Have you guys seen Thomas? Woah... Ara? Mika? Why are you guys crying?
Ara & Mika: ......
Mich: Wala parin ba?
Van: *biglang sulpot* Uhm guys.....
May pinakita na note si Van;
Paps,
Maybe you guys are wondering where I am. Too be honest, I don't know either. I just need time to think. I hope you'll understand. I'll be back...... Soon. Hopefully, I'll be able to confront you guys when I'm ready. When I can finally think straight. Don't worry, I won't do anything stupid.
P.S Don't bother looking for me. I'll be fine. While I'm gone, please take care of Ara for me, as well as the other girls.
- Thomas
