Eyven's POV
He’s worried because I have some nasty memories with that tree house, but I just ignored him, the truth is, gusto ko din bumalik sa tree house, I just kinda missed it..
Ven: tara na, gutom nako
We all went to the backyard of the school, and saw the big tree house, as we enter the house, lot of memories came back to me.
The maids of Kiefer were preparing lots of foods for us, then Kiefer started the conversation while we were eating.
Kiefer: this place has lots of memories of my childhood,
Rain: like what?
Kiefer: I have my best friend whom I shared lots of memories here, this is our hiding place whenever we did a crime together,
Sophia: crime?
Kiefer: pranks,
We all laughed together because of Sophia’s expression, it’s hilarious..
Rain: where is he now?
Kiefer: I don’t know, his family moved somewhere and since then wala na kaming communication, I barely remember his face, but I still remember his name, Jay Rodriguez,
Sophia: Rodriguez? Gel it’s your surname right?
Kiefer: really?
Gel:y-yes
Then Rain grin at me, I suddenly feel nervous
Rain: you told me before that you once have protected a girl here right?
Nanlaki mga mata ko nung marinig ko yun,
What is he doing?!!
Kiefer: yes, di ko na din siya maalala, di ko na din alam kung nasan siya, her name was Eyven Nichol,
I saw Sophia’s hand stopped moving and looked at me,
Kiefer: Eyven, if your surname was Nichol, I might have mistaken you for her,
Ven: r-really?
Rain: what she looks like before?
Kiefer: she’s ugly..
Gel and Rain started laughing, I saw Kiefer’s confused face,
Kiefer: what? What’s so funny?
Rain: no, nothing, just continue,
Kiefer: and weird niyo, anyway, like I said, she’s ugly, she had her bangs covering her eyes, ang taba pa, then ang tapang parang lalake, after I protected her she kicked my thing,
And once again, they laugh so hard about it, sa sobrang inis ko kinurot ko sa tagiliran si Gel and I glared rain, then they stopped laughing,
Ven: it’s not right to talk about someone in the past..
Kiefer: huh? What are you saying?
Ven: n-no, I mean, I feel sorry para dun sa girl na PINAGTATAWANAN NG DALAWANG TO!
Rain: sorry na,
Gel: nai-imagine ko kasi,
Sophia: enough na guys, lumalamig na pagkain ohh,
While we were eating, Gel started the conversation again,
Gel: Kiefer, how did you meet Sophia?
Kiefer: it was my mother who introduced her to me, then my mother said, she’s your girlfriend,
Nakita kong humigpit yung hawak ni Sophia sa kutsara niya habang nagkukwento si Kiefer,
Kiefer: even though it was an arranged relationship for us, I like her
Nung marinig ko yun, ako naman yung humigpit ang hawak sa kutsara ko,
Sophia: okay, enough talking about our relationship, it’s kind of embarrassing
Kiefer: what’s embarrassing about our relationship?
Sophia: because it’s just an arranged relationship,
Kiefer: ya, but I like you, there’s nothing wrong with it right?
Ang sakit sa tenga ng conversation nila but I endured it, then Gel held my hand to comfort me,
Rain: tumigil na kayong dalawa, may mga single dito oh?
Kiefer: sorry na,
Sophia: anyway, let’s finish our food na,
After 20 minutes, natapos kaming kumain, di ko alam kung namamalik mata lang ako o hindi but I saw Kiefer looking at me for about 5 seconds. Since walang teacher, umuwi kami ng bahay, hinatid ako ni Gel,
Gel: una nako, sleep well okay?
Ven: may pupuntahan ka pa?
Gel: ya, business matters,
Ven: okay, ingat,
Then Gel kissed my forehead, he actually don’t do this
Ven: what’s wrong?
Gel: nothing, I just wanted to kiss you, sige, pumasok ka na sa loob
Then he drove away..
