Bumalik ng magkasama si Jade at Althea sa kwarto nila ng madatnan nila dun si Lucas
Oh? Lucas? Bakit nandito ka? *curious*
Nagtatakang tanung ni Jade
Oh.. hey Jade eto dinalahan ko si Thea ng ointment para sa sugat niya
San mo kinuha yan?
Sabi ni Jade
Sa labas
Sa labas??
Oo naglakad ako pabalik sa pinakalabas pa kasi nandun yung mga tindahan
Sagot ni Lucas
Ahh.. kaya pala hindi kita napansin sa kwarto niyo kanina..
Sagot ni Jade
Wow Lucas ah para talaga sa taong mahal mo gagawin mo lahat ah.. nako Thea kung ako sayo ginagrab ko na yang si Lucas
Sabi ni Althea
Hahaha I don't think Lucas is her type
Pag dedepensa ni Jade
Uhm.. well actually if I haven't got a girlfriend Lucas would be my type *playing along* "kahit na hindi naman talaga.. haha but I guess I should just play along biruan lang naman"
*eyes widen* talaga?.. I didn't know na bisexual ka pala? *curious*
Yeah... I... actually am "hmm.. what reaction will you give me now Jade?"
Oww.. I see well.. *clears throat* Althea's right Lucas is your best choice hehe
"I can see through you Jade.. kahit sandali lang tayong nagkakilala.. I have learned so much about you and the way you can't look at me straight gives it all.. *smirks* she's bothered by the idea" *smirks*
Sabi ni Thea sa isip niya
Uh.. bakit ka na ngingiti? *curious*
Sabi ni Jade habang pinagmamasdan siya ni Althea
"What are you thinking Jade? Bothered ka ba sakanilang dalawa? *suspicious*" *slightly frowns*
Sabi ni Althea sa isip niya
Huh? Nothing natatawa lang ako anyway thank you Lucas ah for the ointment sana hindi ka na nag abala pa ang layo pa naman ng entrance
Uh.. hehe *blushes* okay lang.. para sayo naman eh
Nga pala Lucas.. nabook mo na ba yung tickets natin? *serious*
Biglang sabi ni Althea
Tickets? *slightly frowns*
Yes Thea.. Tickets.. we're going home A.S.A.P
Huh? *glances at Jade* kasama ka Jade?
Syempre kasama siya Thea.. ako naman ang rason kung bakit in the first place nandito siya kaya since sinundo ko na tong girlfriend ko pwede na kaming umuwi *sarcastic* right Jade? *emphasizes speech* *looks at Jade*
Y..yeah can't wait to go home
Ohh.. I see.. have a nice trip then.. "uuwi na pala si Jade.... *gloomy*"
Uhm.. Thea can we please keep in touch?
Biglang sabi ni Lucas
Uhm.. Lucas pasensya na ha.. I don't think matutuwa si Mika if hinayaan kong mangyari yun...
Ah ganun ba.. uhm.. kahit Japan number mo nalang.. para pag bumalik ako pwede kitang macontact?
Pasensya na Lucas.. if I did that.. ibig lang sabihin nun binibigyan kita ng chance.. and ayokong ma-misinterpret yun ni Mika
"I'm so freaking confused ! Ngayon naman all she talks about is Mika??? Pero kung makalapit siya kay Jade?? Hindi ba mas nakakaselos yun sa part ni Mika?? Well I'm Jealous of them ! Kahit na magkaibigan lang sila ! *groans* nakakainis ! Why do I feel like Thea's doing something I don't know about.. and Jade.. there's something wrong.. with her... *hurt* *confused* *frustrated*"
Sabi ni Althea sa isip niya
Uhm.. hindi naman ako manliligaw Thea.. gusto ko lang sanang makipag kaibigan.. yun lang no malice or any meaning to it at all.. masaya lang talaga ako a company mo... yun lang..
Uhm.. okay.. sige.. if friends lang talaga..
Yes !! Thank you *grabs Thea's arms* this is the best day ! Anyway babalik na ko sa room baka gusto niyo ng magpahinga
Napangiti si Althea na parang nagwagi siya samantalang si Jade ay tila walang emosyon sa mukha niya
Good night Lucas , see you tomorrow
Sabi ni Althea
Good night girls, Thea..
At ngumiti lang si Thea sakanya, makalipas ang ilang oras ay nag lights out na sila. Maya maya pa ay biglang nagsalita si Thea
Uhm.. Jade? Gising ka pa?
Mm?
I guess you can't sleep huh?
Medyo.. namamahay siguro ako..
Uhm.. Jade..
Yes?
Uuwi ka na ba talaga bukas?
Oo eh.. alam mo na.. may buhay din talaga ako sa Pilipinas and I need to return to it.. siguro eto na yung end nung panandalian na sinasabi ko noon hehe
*smiles* naging masaya ka naman ba? *concerned*
Oo naman thanks sa efforts mo kahit na minsan tinataboy kita
Hehe okay lang naging goal ko naman talagang pasiyahin ka bago ka bumalik sa totoong buhay mo
Hehe alam mo bang minasama ko pa yan nung unang beses kong narinig yan galing sayo
Oo nga eh but.. I hope it's clearer now na gusto ko talagang maging masaya ka
Yeah.. it's clearer thank you Thea naging worthwhile din ang pag stay ko dito salamat sainyo nila Jayden and Mika for making my stay here extra special
Hehehe mamimiss ka namin mamimiss ko yung pag mamaktol mo sa kwarto mo, pagiging tahimik mo, pag sspace out mo tsaka syempre yung mga tawa mo, ngiti mo and of course yung mga gala natin hahaha naging tour guide ako ng wala sa oras dahil sayo... *tears starts to fill* masaya ako Jade na nakilala kita.. alam mo ba? Nung unang magkita tayo sa hotel? Hindi talaga ako dun naka assign napadaan lang ako dahil may binigay ako sa front desk and nagulat nalang ako ng hatakin ako ng katrabaho ko hehehe
Talaga?? Ang galing naman maybe we were meant to be friends noh?
Yeah.. well I wanted to believe that hehe..
Parang napipilitan ka pa ah? Hahaha *chuckles*
Uy hindi ah ! Ahaha pero siguro nga tama ka we were meant to be in that same place and in that same time and in that same moment para matulungan kita hehehe.. kasi sobrang broken hearted mo hahaha oh and don't forget yung pag assign sakin sayo ng manager ko to think na hindi lang naman ako yung staff dun who can speak in english hehe nagkataon lang talaga na ako lang yung nandun..
Hehehe well then I guess I should thank the universe, sa fate and destiny? Hahaha
No, no I should be the one thanking them hehehe pero masaya ka naman na diba Jade? *serious*
Oo naman masaya ako if you're worried.. don't be hehe
Are you happy with Althea?
Oo naman.. Althea.. is.. my happy and at the same time sad pill you know?.. she can bring me happiness, confusion.., and pain all at the same time.. *sighs* actually I feel like everything is going too fast saming dalawa.. and it scares me...
Huh? Bakit naman? *curious*
Ganito din kasi yung nangyari samin nung una parang nagpadalos dalos.. although nung time na yun we can't really accept and admit it to ourselves.. and then everything blew up she ended up not knowing what she really want and so I end up flying here in Japan.. kaya ngayon.. parang natatakot akong mas ma attach kay Althea.. lalo na kung ganitong...
Ganitong ano?
*silence*
Ganitong ano Jade?? *curious*
*smirks* interesado ka talaga eh noh?
Oo naman ! I'm always interested in you
W...what?
A.. I mean interested ako sa mga kwento mo ! Hahaha
Ahh.. uhm.. okay well lalo na ganitong wala naman akong masyado pinang hahawakan kay Althea..
Hmm.. why don't you just trust her Jade? Mahal mo naman siya diba? "Parang ang sakit ng tanungin ko yun kay Jade ah hahaha kaloka ka Thea !!! Uuwi na siya pakawalan mo na ..."
Syempre naman mahal na mahal ko si Althea.. natatakot lang talaga ako.. *gloomy*
"Ouuccchhh... *sighs* yung alam ko naman yung isasagot niya hahaha haaayyy Thea itigil mo na lalo ka lang masasaktan..." uhm.. natatakot ka? Kasi?
Kasi minsan na kong nasaktan ni Althea.. I don't know if she knew about it.. but.. *sighs* nevermind.. the important thing now is.. I took a risk.. just to be with her again.. I just hope na sana it goes well this time..
*sighs* alam mo Jade siguro.. mas maging strong ka this time.. yung tipong kahit na anung mangyari kakapit ka lang sakaniya.. I mean sa ganitong klaseng relasyon kasi marami ang pwedeng humusga.. kumontra.. lahat na.. but always remember na.. ang pinaka importante is kayong dalawa.. as long as you love Althea.. and she loves you.. everything will be fine... *tears starts to fill* "alam kong eto ang best na mabibigay ko sayo Jade.. my friendship.. ngayon malinaw na sakin talaga.. kung ano lang ba dapat ako sa buhay mo.. I guess eto lang din yung gusto ng universe na gawin ko para sayo.. na tulungan ka.. na maging guide mo habang nandito ka sa Japan.. although I want to believe na we'll still have more than that.. but I won't hope too much.. but it's fun hoping to be together with you sometime in the future... you and Althea deserve each other.. how I wish I could also deserve you..."
Tama ka naman Thea.. siguro nga ganun na lang yung gagawin ko.. pero may pag ka mahina din kasi ako.. yun ang totoo.. but since you said it.. I guess I will try to do my best to hold on to Althea whatever happens.. come what may.. thank you Thea ah?.. you don't know how much courage, strength and confidence you're giving me.. all that pep talks.. all the encouragement.. all that support kahit na hindi mo naman talaga ako kilala.. thank you for your patience with me hehe kahit na hindi mo naman talaga obligasyon yung mga bagay na yun and also thank you for making me forget what hurts kahit na alam nating pansamantala lang yun.. you convinced me to be happy kahit na I can't find any reasons to be... kaya Thea.. I wanted to sincerely Thank you as in sobra because you stayed until Althea came back to me...
*silently sobs* you don't know how happy I am Jade sa mga sinabi mo.. I feel like I have really done my part
Anung part ka dyan?! Ahahaha hindi mo naman yun obligasyon baliw ka !
Well still it made me really happy Jade masaya ako kasi naging masaya ka dito and syempre mas masaya ako kasi alam kong isa ako sa dahilan kung bakit naging masaya yung pagstay mo dito ... and.. I'll admit.. everyday you became more and more.. im.. important to me kaya naging big deal na din sakin yung happiness mo..
Aww.. *touched* alam mo? You're the most sweetest person I've known all my life.. well apart from Althea hehe and Lucas hehe although they're different.. Althea being my girlfriend of course would be sweet and Lucas being my brother while you? I just met you and you filled me up with all those affection and care kaya in my judgement ikaw na ang pinaka sweet na taong nakilala ko hehe
Well you're worth it *murmurs*
Huh? Ano yun?
Wala hahaha matulog na tayo maaga pa tayong aalis bukas para maka habol sa flight niyo
Right ! Hehe
Good night Jade..
Good night Thea..
Sweet dreams.. *whispers*
.......
The next morning the girls were woken up by a knock on the door
Hey girls wake up, it's time to get ready
Sabi ni Jayden
Thanks JD *yawns*
Sagot ni Thea
Is it okay if I use the bathroom first?
Dagdag ni Thea
Yeah sure..
Sagot ni Althea. Pagkapasok ni Thea sa banyo ay umupo ito sa kama sa tabi ni Jade
*silence*
*notices Althea* Good morning love.. *closes eyes*
*awkward silence*
*opens eyes* is there a problem? *curious*
Sabi ni Jade
Jade.. masaya ka ba? *gloomy*
Huh? Oo naman bakit?
I mean are you happy that finally we're flying back home?
Inilagay ni Jade ang isang kamay niya sa pisngi ni Althea at sinabing
Of course I am.. bakit? Is there something bothering you?
Mm...
Love? I know you're sad.. what is it?
You finally noticed huh?
Hm? What do you mean?
Jade.. lately I've been thinking.. crazy things.. and I.. I think the least I could do it to tell you... *looks down*
And?... *listens attentively*
It.. it's about Thea..
What about her?
What is she to you Jade? Should I be worried?
Aww.. baby you don't have anything to worry about.. Thea's just a really great friend..
But she likes you doesn't she?
Well I don't know but I think she likes me as a friend
No Jade.. I know and I can see how she looks at you.. I feel off.. whenever you're looking at each other.. I feel like there's this thing that I don't see na kayo lang ang may kakayahang makakita.. I .. I feel like you have this kind of connection that I will never have..
Love we have our connection.. Thea's different.. she's special to me but not as special as you.. she became special to me because she-
Because she stayed until I came back to you? Is that it?
You heard what we were talking about?
Yeah.. last night.. hindi ko naman plinanong makinig.. pero nagising ako eh and so I happen to-
It's okay.. wala naman akong dapat na itago sayo eh you know babe.. Thea's been somehow became my support system when I came here and she helped me a lot..
I know that.. and I'm thankful for that.. wag ko lang malaman na may nararamdaman siya para sayo
*giggles* hahaha alam mo love don't take Thea too seriously ganyan talaga siya she would treat you like she has a thing for you and then the next day she treats like a joke get it? Nasanay nalang ako na ganun siya I think ganun lang talaga siya magpakita na nag ccare siya and at the same time treats you the other way around para hindi mo bigyan ng meaning ang mga ginagawa niya
"My God Jade ! How dense can you be??? Like seriously?? Ganyan ang tingin mo kay Thea?!! *sighs* I guess it can't be helped but to just let this go huh? *groans* anyway ang importante Jade doesn't feel anything for Thea..."
*giggles* don't worry baby Thea's clearly just a friend nothing more and nothing less? Okay natutuwa lang talaga ako sa friendship na binibigay niya sakin I mean isn't she the sweetest? Try to know her too and you'll know what I mean
Okay... I'll try to do that if our time allows it..
You can do that the next time love
I guess so...
Uhm.. does that clear your mind now love?
Yeah.. "a little bit I guess.. until we get home.. siguro dun lang ako mapapalagay talaga..."
After a few more moments
The bathrooms open
Sabi ni Thea
Oh.. thanks Thea.. I'll go first Jade.. or.. you wanted to go together?
Sabi ni Althea habang pasimpleng tinitignan ang magiging reaksyon ni Thea na tila wala namang epekto sakaniya ang pag aya ni Althea kay Jade
"These things shouldn't affect me.. Jade's happiness is what's important... *contented*"
Y..yeah sure love *embarassed* *shy* *blushes* *glances to Thea*
Pagpasok nila ng bathroom Althea quickly pushes Jade against the wall
*startled* a..anung? Bakit? Althea?
This jealousy is driving me crazy Jade.. that look you gave Thea, what does that mean?? *slightly frowns*
What look?? *confused*
You gave her a quick glance when you agreed to take a bath with me... what gives? Tell me?!
Love naman syempre nahihiya ako ano ka ba !
And then suddenly Althea pushes Jade harder to the wall burying her face to Jade's neck and then grips her shoulder tight
*confused* *shocked* love? What's going on? Nasasaktan ako
At sabay sinubukan ni Althea na halikan ang leeg ni Jade as aggresive as she can be na sobrang ikinagulat at medyo ikinatakot ni Jade
Love? Ano bang *struggles* ginagawa mo??
Althea continues until she gets down to Jade's chest hanggang sa itulak siya ni Jade malayo ng konti sakaniya
Hindi ko maintindihan yung nangyayari Althea.. but this makes me uncomfortable..
Nakayuko lang si Althea at hindi sumasagot ng may mapansin si Jade
L...love?
*sobbing* I'm sorry Jade... *crying* hindi ko lang alam kung anung gagawin ko sa nararamdaman ko.. alam ko namang hindi dapat ako magselos pero nagseselos ako !! This feeling is new to me.. and hindi ko alam kung paano ko to ihahandle.. I'm sorry... I just love you too much Jade.. I don't know how or what will I do if I lost you.. and I know that.. Thea's the closest person na pwedeng kumuha sayo sakin...
*eyes widen* *surprised* love please don't cry.. *heart pounding* "what have I done?" *confused* *lost* "what should I do?"
Sa sobrang lito ni Jade sa mga nangyayari hindi niya na alam ang gagawin niya kundi ang yakapin nalang si Althea ng mahigpit
I'm sorry... I'm sorry... I'm sorry Althea.. I didn't noticed what's bothering you.. hindi ko akalaing umabot na pala sa ganyan.. I'm really really sorry love... mahal kita.. and nothing can change that... please stop crying... I'm here.. nandito na ko ulit... please stop crying my love... *tears starts to fill* it was never my intention to hurt you and make you feel like this...
At tuloy tuloy sa pag iyak si Althea kay Jade na tila inilabas niya lahat lahat ng bigat na nararamdaman niya pati na din ang gumugulo sa isipan niya... pareho silang nagiyakan sa isa't isa habang nakabalot ang mga braso nila sa isa't isa..
