Sabrina's POV
He promised me... He promised me na hindi niya na ako ulit iiwan. He promised me na sasamahan niya akong lumaban.
He promised me.
But I guess, I'm wrong.
Nagkamali na naman akong umasa sa kaniya. Tsh... Sino ba kasi ang nagsabing umasa ako sa kaniya ulit?
Sinaktan niya na ako noon, posibleng saktan niya ulit ako ngayon.
At ito na nga ngayon, sinaktan na naman niya ako.
Sabi niya tutuparin niya na ang promise niya. Pero bakit, pinako niya ulit.
He made me realize that he cannot do the promise he said. Pinako niya lang lahat iyon. Ni isa, wala siyang tinupad.
Hindi ko alam pero napunta ako sa Facebook account niya. Friends pa rin kasi kami sa Facebook.
At napatingin ako sa bio niya at may nakalagay na 'Stephanie'. At may nakalagay na August 8 sa baba niyon.
Ito na ba yong ipinalit niya sa'kin? 2 days pa lang kaming break, tapos may girlfriend na siya? Ang bilis naman yata niyang makahanap.
Hindi niya ba ako minahal, at ganoon na lang siya kadaling makahanap ng iba?
Dahil sa inis ko ay shinut-down ko ang cellphone at inihagis ko ito sa lapag.
I don't care kung mabasag iyon.
"Sabrina, kain na tayo." Sabay katok ni Kuya Red.
"Mamaya na lang kuya, busog pa ako." sagot ko.
"Are you okay in there?", worried na tanong ni kuya.
"Yes kuya. I'm... Fine."
"Okay... Bumaba ka na lang, kapag nagugutom ka na. Wag kang magpapalipas ng gutom."
Hindi ko na siya sinagot at pumunta ako sa veranda.
I saw David na dumaan sa harap ng bahay namin. At titig titig sa'kin.
What's his problem?
Umiwas ako ng tingin, pero titig na titig pa din sakin si David.
Pumasok na lang ulit ako sa kuwarto at kinuha ko ang gitara ko at pumunta sa veranda at umupo. At tumugtog.
I looked up at the sky...
🎵 I bet this time of night you're still up.
I bet you're tired from a long hard week.
I bet you're sitting in your chair by the window looking out at the city.
And I bet sometimes you wonder about me.
Bakit?
Bakit nagka-ganito ang lahat?
Bukas na ang midterm namin, paano ako makakapag-review kung may gumugulo sa utak ko? Kung may problema ako?
Papalapit na rin ang birthday ko, pero bakit puro kamalasan ang natatanggap ko?
🎵 And I just wanna tell you
It takes everything in me not to call you.
And I wish I could run to you.
And I hope you know that every time I don't
I almost do,
I almost do.
🎵 I bet you think I either moved on or hate you
'Cause each time you reach out there's no reply.
I bet it never ever occurred to you that I can't say "Hello" to you
And risk another goodbye.
🎵And I just wanna tell you
It takes everything in me not to call you.
And I wish I could run to you.
And I hope you know that every time I don't
I almost do,
I almost do.
A tear fall down from my eye.
🎵 Oh, we made quite a mess, babe.
It's probably better off this way.
And I confess babe,
In my dreams you're touching my face
And asking me if I wanna try again with you.
🎵 And I almost do.
And I just wanna tell you
It takes everything in me, not to call you.
And I wish I could run to you.
And I hope you know that every time I don't
I almost do,
I almost do.
🎵 I bet this time of night you're still up.
I bet you're tired from a long hard week.
I bet you're sitting in your chair by the window looking out at the city.
And I hope sometimes you wonder about me.
Pinunasan ko ang luha ko. At tumingin sa langit.
Ang tadhana na lang ang makakapag-sabi kung tayo nga ba talaga, David...
Siguro nga tama si Mommy. Hindi ko pa talaga kilala si David.

"Hayaan niyo na. At least nag-break kami is may dahilan." sabi ko.
"Yeah... Just go with the flow lang." Andrea said.
"Kung kami, edi kami... Nothing change with that naman diba?", tanong ko.
"Oo nga. At saka yong Stephanie na yan, rebound lang yan ni David... I'm telling you." sabi ni Lyn.
"Yeah... Mas maganda ka doon SIS." Rose emphasise the word sis.
"Magbi-break din sila at babalik din sayo si David. Tiwala lang." dagdag pa ni Mae.
