Jhoana
After Kianna left, minutes after dumating naman si Nico. Sumakay naman ako sa kotse niya.
That's one thing Nico doesn't have. He never opened the door for me. But it wasn't a big deal to me.
My mind is occupied with Kianna and Bea.
"Hey babe, you okay? You're spacing out." Nico
"Ha?" Jhoana
"I'm asking if you're okay. Kanina ka pa tulala, is there something bothering you?" Nico
"Uhm wala naman. I guess I'm tired and maybe effect din ng hangover. But I'm good." Jhoana
"You want to eat?" Nico
"Uhm, take me home I think I just need sleep besides I'm still full." Jhoana
"Okay love pahinga ka diyan, I'll wake you up pag nasa condo mo na." Nico
But it's a lie. Not tired, I guess my mind is really occupied with what I saw.
I shake my mind off it. Ano naman kung magkasama sila?
I tried sleeping but no luck. Tahimik lang naman na nagdridrive si Nico. He didn't bother me for the whole ride.
Nakadating naman na ako sa condo.
"Hey babe, do you mind if I want some time alone?" Jhoana
"No worries babe. I know you're tired from work and the preparation. I understand get some sleep." Nico
"Don't get off. Get some rest na lang din okay? Text me when you got home." Jhoana
"You sure? Hindi na kita ihatid?" Nico
"Hindi na, I can manage babe. Sige na." Jhoana
"Jho, I love you okay? Please remember that." Nico
"I know, I love you too Nico. I'll be fine, I just need some rest." Jhoana
Inintay ko namang umalis ang sasakyan niya bago ako pumasok sa condo building ko.
Tomorrow is Sunday and I don't have enough rest. Tapos may pasok na uli sa Monday. Two more months for this account tas wedding naman. It's exhausting.
My phone beeped.
Text Message Notifications
Nico: Babe I'm already at the house. Get some sleep mkay? Puntahan kita diyan bukas. I love you.
Isabel: Hi! Nevermind what I said. Are you busy?
~~~
Wow did Isabel just replied to me.
I composed a message to Nico saying goodnight and such.
Jhoana: Hello, not really why? Kauuwi ko lang.
I cleaned up myself it's 5pm. And I'm tired
Bea: Want to grab dinner with me?
Jhoana: Lol. Why?
Bea: Wala lang. Baka lang gusto mo.
Jhoana: Pass. Have fun with your dinner.
Bea: Oh okay. Good night Jho. Sorry for bothering you.
Hindi ko na naisipang magreply because I'm really tired. I just found myself lying in my bed and fall asleep.
~~~~
I woke because I find myself in an uncomfortable position. Hayyy sasakit na naman likod at braso ko nito.
I checked my phone.
And I haven't got a single message. Lol who am I kidding.
It's already 4 in the morning. Grabe almost 12 hours tulog ko.
It's sunday and there's nothing to do. But to lie in my bed all day.
I sent a good morning text to Nico. He'll probably go here later for sure.
I sat myself infront of the TV. I'm still tired jusko.
To wake myself up. I prep myself for a morning jog. Saw my inbox that the girls are planning to have a morning jog at Ateneo by 6am.
I picked up my bag, where the necessary things should be.
With an empty stomach i found myself driving sa kahabaan ng Katipunan from BGC. Buti na lang it's sunday, walang traffic.
I called Ponggay asking their location. They're at BEG, waiting for the others.
Pinark ko naman car ko near sa BEG. Hay nakakamiss naman maglaro para sa Ateneo.
I immediately saw Ponggay and some trainees ata.
"Sino pang pupunta?" Jhoana
"Deanna's already parking her car. She's with Jules and Ate Ells. Tapos nasa loob na sina Ate Jia." Ponggay
"Oh sige. Pasok ako sa Gym ah baba ko lang gamit ko." Jhoana
"Sige lang jhowjhow take your time." Ponggay
I saw the girls setting up the net. And I saw Bea too.
"Good morning Jho." Bea
"Good morning guys." Jhoana
dedma lang.
"Ako na lang mag good morning sayo Bea, Good Morning Bea!" Ate Ella
"Good Morning Ate Ells." Bea
"Tara warm up na for jogging tas tune up game tayo sa Team." Ate Ly
We started warming up by partners. Like we used to before. We don't want our body to be sore. We started running after that and play like the old days sina Deanna.
"Cute no?" Ate Ly
"Ang alin?" Jhoana
"Wag ka titigan baka matunaw yan." Ate Ly
"Sinasabi mo Ate Ly? Hahaha san si Ate Den?" Jhoana
"Sleeping Beauty, bed rest na she's 7months pregnant. Hopefully I finished the project first before the baby will come out." Ate Ly
"Ate Ly, anong sikreto niyo ni Ate Den? Since college kayo ano?" Jhoana
"Secret on our relationship? Wala sigurong tamang recipe para diyan. But mostly need sa relationship eh yung Honesty and Trust. I'm always honest with her with my feelings. We always communicate and I love how she trust me in everything. And I'm glad na umamin ako sa kanya before. Siguro kung hindi, baka maging ninang na lang ako ng baby niya hahahaha." Ate Ly
"Ang swerte niyo naman. Sana all." Jhoana
"Why all of a sudden? You're getting married in a few months right?" Ate Ly
"Yeah. I'm happy naman with him." Jhoana
"Oh happy naman pala eh. Ano bang problema kasi parang di ka satisfied sa sagot mo?" Ate Ly
"I don't know." Jhoana
"Naguguluhan ka kasi nandiyan yung past? I heard you still love her. What's stopping you?" Ate Ly
"Di na kasi pwede Ate Ly. Engaged na ako. I don't want to hurt anyone. Besides she doesn't remember naman." Jhoana
"Eh baka naman in the end ikaw ang masaktan diyan sa desisyon mo sa buhay. Sinong mahal mo?" Ate Ly
" i love them both Ate Ly." Jhoana
"Alam mong hindi pwede na mahal mo sila parehas kasi at the end of the day alam natin na may mas lamang." Ate Ly
"Natatakot ako." Jhoana
"Natatakot ka saan? Sa posibilidad na baka mahal ka din niya? Na baka mali ang naging desisyon mo at di ka naghintay? Sabagay walang kasiguraduhan yung pagbalik niya, it's a miracle. Pero would you really lose this chance to be with her again? Have you tried talking to her?" Ate Ly
"I've been avoiding her? Ayaw ko nang gulo. Anytime pwede kaming makita ni Nico. And I have seen him mad when it comes to Bea." Jhoana
"There's nothing wrong with talking Jhoana. And you know it." Ate Ly
We were interrupted when Ponggay shouts
"Guys breakfast?" Ponggay
"Let's play best of three. Whoever loses will treat breakfast." Jia
Everyone agreed to it.
"Think about it Jhoana. We both know you still love her. And you're afraid to admit it. Give yourself a treat, choose the one who will make you happy in the long run" Ate Ly
Nagsimula na kami maglaro.
And my thoughts are just wandering around kung dapat ko ba siyang kausapin. But really there's nothing to talk about to begin with.
Do I just come up to her and say, why would you be back when everything feels right.
WHY?
We finished the game and ang team nina Bea ang nanalo even if we have Ate Ly. Jia and Bea's connection are still the best.
"So ayun guys, ang napag-usapan breakfast!! Yehey!! much better to find an opponent partner niyo tas yun na lang manlilibre sa inyo. Bet?" Ponggay
"Bet! Dibs kay Ly!" Ate Ella
"Kay Deanna ako!" Jia
"Jules! You got me!!!" Ponggay
"Kitttykatt! Partners?" Maddie
"fine!!" Kat
"Ayumi. sagot kita." Jaycel
"Double meaning ata yon eh hahahaha!" Deanna
"Ayieee" ALE
"Dani, join ka na kay Ella, libre na kita." Ate LY
"Yaman naman ni Capt! Ako din" Maddie
"Uy ikaw Ate Jho? Sagot mo na si Ate Bea!" Ponggay
"Ayown! Champion naman ng breakfast na to." Ate Ella
"Ha?" Jho
"Sabi ni Ponggay si Bei ililibre mo kasi wala siyang kapartner." Ate Ella
"Uy kahit hindi na. Nakakahiya." Bea
"Huy Jho libre mo na si Bea, talo naman kayo eh." Ate Ella
"Ate Ells, it's fine, wag na Jho. Salamat." Bea
Kanina pa ako wala sa sarili. Bakit naman kasi di ko pinansin kanina. Attitude teh? Ayan tuloy ayaw na ata ako makasama.
"Huy anong ginawa mo? Bakit ayaw ni Bea?" Ate Ly
"Pano kasi naggood morning kanina si Bea tas di niya pinansin, baka napahiya. Ito kasi si Jhoana ang attichoda parang di sweet last month." Ate Ella
"Oo nga Ate Jho, past is past na naman diba? Kausapin mo na." Deanna
"Hey Bea! Sabay ako sayo, wala pala akong dalang kotse. Libre na lang kita ng breakfast." Jia
"Sige babe, wait lang shower lang ako." Bea
"Ayan mabagal ka, naunahan ka tuloy. Kung ako sayo, kikilos na ako." Ate Ella
Everyone went to the bathroom to clean theirself up.
Simula kanina pa niya ako di tinatapunan ng tingin.
Wala na ata akong ibang ginawa kung hindi iturndown lahat ng sinasabi niya.
"Jho, alam mo naman na bestfriend kayo ni Bea before diba? Bago man mangyari tong lahat nang ito. Wag mo sanang sayangin." Ate Ly
Naglabasan naman na kami sa BEG at pumunta sa kanya kanyang sasakyan. Ako kasakay ko si Ate Ells as usual, ang hilig makihitch ride.
Habang naglalakad papuntang parking lot lumapit sakin si Ate Ella, makikichika na naman yan.
"Gurl umamin ka nga sakin bakit di mo pinapansin si Bea?" Ate Ella
"Ha?" Jhoana
"Luh narinig mo ako, wag ka magbingi-bingihan diyan." Ate Ella
"Ano ba yon?" Jhoana
"Sabi ko bakit di mo pinapansin si Beatriz." Ate Ella
"Ahh. Di ko alam, baka natatakot ako." Jhoana
"Natatakot? Ano yan multo?" Ate Ella
"Ate Ells, natatakot ako, natatakot na baka magkatotoo tong takot na nararamdaman ko. Natatakot akong aminin sa sarili ko na mahal ko siya at gusto kong bumalik siya sakin. Pero alam mo naman na Ate Ells na hindi pwede diba?" Jhoana
" Jho ikaw lang ang nagkukulong sa sarili mo sa takot. Alam mo na pwede pa, natatakot ka lang na iwan si Nico dahil mahal mo din siya. Pero sa tingin mo kanino ka mas sasaya. Jho I've seen you at your happiest with Bea. And I've seen that again last month.
Better make a right choice Jho. Sa dami nang umaaligid kay Bea, hindi ko na alam kung may babalikan ka pa pag nagpatagal ka pa. Tingnan mo si Jia ngayon, kinabukasan nandiyan na si Selina and I heard she's out with Kianna yesterday. Teh sinasabi ko sayo di lang ikaw ang babae na nagmamahal kay Beatriz" Ate Ella
Bea POV
Nauna akong lumabas sa BEG at inintay sila sa parking lot.
Habang naghihintay ako sa kanila, nakakarinig ako ng tunog mula sa mga sasakyan.
And I've heard that sound before.
Chineck ko bawat sasakyan namin. And I heard it from Jho's car.
Nakita ko na ring papalapit sila.
Kaya tumakbo ako papalapit kay Ate Ella.
"Ate Ells, there's a bug in Jho's car." Bea
"What do you mean?" Ate Ella
"A bug, it's a monitoring device that can hear people's conversations." Bea
"What???! Are you sure?" Ate Ella
"What's wrong?" Deanna
"May bug daw sa kotse ni Jho." Ate Ella
"I'll borrow her keys. Wait lang." Deanna
Deanna got the keys making some lame excuse.
Me and Deanna searched for it.
"What do you think you're doing with my car?" Jhoana
"Uhm may chinecheck lang Ate Jho." Deanna
"Kailangan pati si Bea?" Jhoana
"Nagpapatulong lang ako Ate Jho, wait lang saglit lang to. May hinahanap lang kami." Deanna
"No! Get your hands off my car, that's like invasion of privacy ano ba?!" Jhoana
"Jho saglit lang daw oh." Ate Ella
I can see that she's pissed right now.
"Ano ba Isabel? Hindi ka ba titigil diyan? I said stop right? Hindi ka ba marunong makaintindi? Tumigil ka na! " Jhoana
I already found the bug hidden in her car near her gas pedal.
"Tumigil ka na"
Just as she said those words, trigger some memories.
Lumabas na ako ng sasakyan niya at hinarap siya.
"I'm sorry for bothering your privacy. But I can understand naman na you don't want to be bothered, kanina pa. I get that. But you don't need to be rude infront of me, infront of our friends. And by the way, you don't need to thank me for saving your life.
Here's a bug planted in your car.
I'm out. Sorry for like ruining your day kanina pa." Bea
"Kayo na lang guys magbreakfast, wala na ako sa mood. Una na ako" Bea
Nagsimula na ako maglakad papunta sa kotse ko. At nagsisimula na akong makaramdam ng pagkahirap sa paghinga.
"Huy Ate Bei, breakfast na tayo. Tara na libre na kita." Deanna
"Next time na lang Deanns, nasira na mood ko. I need to drink my meds na din. And I think I'm gonna have an episode right now." Bea
"Wait let me drive you. Paalam lang ako sa kanila." Deanna
"Wag na. I can still manage, you should join them." Bea
"Uhm how about no." Deanna
Inagaw naman niya yung susi sa kamay ko. Kulit talaga.
Deanna POV
"Uhm Ate Ly, guys, uuna na kami ni Ate Bei, she's having a panic attack. May nakatrigger ata. We need to go." Deanna
"Ate Bei!" Ponggay
Lumingon ako at nakita kong nanghihina na si Ate Bea. Any time she would collapse.
Kadadating lang naman ni Ate Jia galing kung saan sa campus. Kasama sina Ate Madz
"Anong nangyari?!" Jia
"She's having a panic attack." Deanna
"Open her car compartment. Nandoon yung emergency meds niya." Jia
"How did you know?" Bea
"I know everything Bea, now calm down okay? I got you. Deanna bilis! Yung gamot!" Jia
"Here Ate Jia." Deanna
"Ate Jia eto tubig oh." Dani
"Deanns, start mo na car niya tas on mo yung aircon. Uhm guys pwede pahelp isakay si Bea sa kotse niya." Jia
Inalalayan naman nila si Ate Bea sa passenger seat.
"I'm fine everyone, thank you." Bea
"Fine fine! Sumbong kita kay Tita." Jia
"Babe, no please, ayaw ko silang mag alala. Besides it's just a normal episode. Nakalimutan ko lang uminom and napagod din." Bea
"Bea naman please." Jia
"Jia please understand me. Sige na breakfast na tayo para di ka na magalit." Bea
Ate Bei seems okay na. It's my first time seeing her like that. Sometimes she really does have that episode.
Ella POV
Ngayon nagdridrive na ako gamit kotse ni Jhoana. Itong katabi ko naman walang imik simula kanina pa. Di na niya kinaya magdrive nang makita yung eksena kanina.
"Are you okay?" Ate Ella
"What the hell did just happen??" Jhoana
"Ha?" Ate Ella
"Did I hurt her?" Jhoana
"I don't know Jho, tell me, what did you do?" Ate Ella
"I have never seen her like that. Did I do that to her?" Jhoana
"All that I know is that she's having episodes minsan. Kapag di siya nakainom ng gamot niya or napagod siya masyado. Or may bagay na nakapagpatrigger sa kanya ng dati. Actually she has that before pa. Hindi na ata nagamot, ngayon ko lang nakita na inatake siya. She developed a disorder from trauma. I guess di pa din niya nagagamot." Ate Ella
"Nasaktan ko na naman siya Ate Ells. Maybe she's better off without me." Jhoana
"Bumalik nga para sayo tas aalis ka naman, ayos ka ah." Ate Ella
"Ha?" Jhoana
"You have a finishing project with her Jho, kung ano anong pinagsasabi mo diyan. Magsorry ka na lang, besides she did save you. Biruin mo may bug pala tong kotse mo, akalain mo yun alam niya. Hayyy nako kelan pa kaya yon? Baka kung ano ano na nasabi ko at kung sino na nakarinig non" Ate Ella
"What should I do?" Jhoana
"Mag peace offering ka na lang. Okay okay niyo lang last month eh. Umuwi lang si Nico at Isang buwan lang di nagparamdam si Bea ganyan ka na. Wag ganon friend!" Ate Ella
"Nahihiya nga ako eh, kung ano ano nasabi ko sa kanya." Jhoana
"Bakit ka naman kasi galit na galit hahahaha" Ate Ella
"Pagod lang siguro mamsh. Alam mo na, mag peace offering na lang ako later. Tumatanggap kaya siya ng money? Char" Jhoana
"Gaga alam mo namang mas mayaman pa satin yon. Besides parang di mo naman kilala si Bea. Nagkatikiman na nga ata kayo eh tas di mo alam ipepeace offering mo?" Ella
"Ate Ells bunganga mo talaga walang preno!" Jhoana
"Bakit? Totoo naman ah. " Ella
"Bahala ka diyan. Naiiwanan na tayo nila oh." Jhoana
"Change topic na naman si ineng." Ella
Jhoana POV
What should I give to her? Iba kasi pag nagalit at nagtampo si Beatriz. Sobrang bihira pero grabe. The last time we had an argument. Mga dalawang linggo niya ata akong hindi pinansin. It was really my fault, I ditched her for Ged, wala eh crush na crush ko si Ged. But in reality I was just afraid to admit myself na siya talaga ang gusto ko. Kaya medyo iniwasan ko siya. Kaya nagtampo siya at nagalit when I bail on her on our planned getaway. Kinda dumb moved for me, but it made me realize na gusto ko talaga siya. Hahahahaha
Now we're eating at Romantic Baboy. And she hasn't give me a single glance. Tahimik lang siya kumakain. While si Jia naman todo alaga sa kanya. Not a problem tho, sanay na ako.
Siniko naman ako ni Ate Ells.
"Malapit na yan matunaw." Ella
"Iniisip ko kasi Donya kung paano ako magsosorry." Jhoana
"Nako mukhang malabo ka nga makalapit, mukhang bantay sarado ngayon si Jia hahahaha." Ella
"Donya naman eh nananakot pa." Jhoana
"Eh you know naman Jia when it comes to Beatriz. Jusko!" Ella
"Help me out kaya?" Jhoana
"Katigasan ng ulo mo yan, bahala ka hahahaha!!" Ella
"Ate Ells naman ih." Jhoana
"Jhoana wag mo ko artehan, kasalanan mo yan." Ella
"Dali na tulungan mo na ko, lilibre kita" Jhoana
"Jho, kilala mo si Bea, u know her better than us. Kaya mo yan! Think way before, kung kinakailangan ng lambing, edi lambing." Ella
Lambing? Hahahahaha hirap naman non! Pero true way back before lambing lang ang gusto ni Beatriz, di kasi siya materialistic na tao. Kaya sobrang dali na makipagbati sa kanya. Pero ngayon parang mas gugustuhin ko na lang na kainin ng lupa kesa magpacute at lambingin siya. Sino ba ako? Ex lang di pa maalala hahahaha!
"Oh yung mga talo diyan, magbayad na." Ella
"Bunganga mo Jorella! Pagkatapos mabusog ha?" Alyssa
"Sorry Ly! Labyu! Thanks sa libre huh!" Ella
"Ate Ells, eto oh, ikaw na mag abot sa kanila, bayad ko samin ni Bea." Jhoana
"Luh girl kaw na mag-abot kay Ly." Ella
"Ikaw na dali. Ice cream sagot ko na dali!" Jhoana
"Ay Ly! Eto daw oh bayad ni Jhoana sa food nila ni BEA!" Ella
Ang lakas ng bunganga amputa.
"Ay wow, pinagbayad ka naman ni Jhowjhow, Bei eh! Naks!" Ate Ly
"Bawing bawi oh" Deanna
"Oh Bea tong pera mo, bayad na pala food niyo ih." Jia
"What do you mean? Niyo?" Maddie
"Eh for two people inabot niyang money. Di naman siya talo? Ayaw talaga palibre to eh. Hahahahaha! Ililibre niya si Jho actually." Jia
"Ayiiiieeeeee!!! Haba ng hair Jhoana Louisse!" Ella
"Let's just grab some desserts, my treat." Bea
"Ay nako wala pa din sa mood." Kat
"Ay di ako tatanggi diyan. Tara na Ate Bei, hayaan na natin yung mga nag iinarte diyan." Jules
Bakit naman niya babayaran food ko eh talo naman kami? Ayos ba siya? Hay nako kahit kelan talaga ayaw niya na may ibang tao na nagbabayad sa pagkain niya.
"Rita's?" Jhoana
"Sounds good." Deanna
Naglakad lakad kami around UP Town kasi andami naming nakain. Nakailang stop ata kami bago makadating sa Rita's because shopping. It's a need!!
I don't even know what to give to her? I'm having hard time to think. Di talaga posible yung lambing.
I'm observing her, glancing her whereabouts. Di din siya masyadong lumayo kay Jia. They're just clinging to each other. Samantalang ako, eto tamang panood lang sa kanila. I mean sa buong team ha. Dont get me wrong.
For five years, I don't know what she likes anymore, you know people change. Baka kasi di niya magustuhan yung peace offering ko.
"Alam mo Jho, Bea's still the same, you know she would gladly accept anything, lalo na from you." Ate Ly
"Nakakagulat ka naman Ate Ly." Jhoana
"Halatang kanina ka pa nag iisip ng peace offering eh, I heard you and Ella awhile ago. Anything would do basta the thought is there." Ate Ly
"Ang hirap nga Ate Ly eh, yung suggestion ni Ate Ells, walang kwenta." Jhoana
"Yung alin? Yung lambing?" Ate Ly
"Oo eh hahahahaha, that's beyond imagination." Jhoana
"It's possible tho! Lambing as friends yiiee hahahahahaha! Deh pero siguro mas okay nga na lambingin mo siya. Take her out today?" Ate Ly
"How?" Jhoana
" Use your charms Jhoana, you can do this! I'll help you tho, hilahin ko na lang si Jia mamaya. Just plan maybe a good dinner for the both of you? Besides okay lang naman kayo last month, ikaw lang tong umiiwas. Try to text her, marupok naman yan. Sayo!" Ate Ly
"Hahahahay nako Ate! Sige will think about it. Thank you!" Jhoana
Nakadating na din kami sa Rita's, it's already past lunchtime. Nico texted me that he can't see me today. He's busy sa company nila.
So the day is for me, and who knows maybe later with Bea.
Umuwi na kaming lahat, and I didn't got the chance to talk to her again. Kaya tinext ko na lang siya.
Jhoana: Hey!
Isabel: ?
Jhoana: Thank you sa Ice Cream Isabel. Are you home na ba?
Isabel: Thanks sa lunch. Yes
Jhoana: I was wondering if I could talk to you?
Isabel: about?
Jhoana: About a while ago.
Isabel: Uhm ok.
Jhoana: I get that you're mad and annoyed how the way I act. Can I talk to you personally?
Isabel: Should've have talked to me earlier, I'm now on my way home, next time na lang.
Jhoana: aww that's sad :((( punta na lang ako sa bahay niyo
Isabel: what for?
Jhoana: to personally say I'm sorry??
Isabel: Pinapatawad na kita. Wag ka na pumunta. Now can we end this conversation???
Jhoana: Nope, not unless you open your gate.
Isabel: The hell?? Ginagawa mo??
Jhoana: I told you I'm here to say I'm sorry???
Isabel: Pinapatawad na nga kita diba???
Jhoana: Say it in front of my face kung true????
Isabel: You're annoying???
Jhoana: minahal mo naman???
Isabel: ???
Jhoana: Kidding asside! Pleaseeee.
Isabel: Go Home Jho.
Jhoana: Not gonna move here until I see your face
Isabel: Ok good luck with that.
Jhoana: Nevermind, Tita Det opened the gate 🥺🥰🤪
Isabel: I'm out.
Kadadating lang nina Tita Det and saw me in their gate. Nakakahiya ka talaga Jhoana Louisse.
"Uy Jhoana, what brings you here?" Tita Det
"Eh Tita good afternoon po, ayaw po kasi ako kausapin ni Bea." Jhoana
Oo pakapalan na to ng mukha.
" come in, tinotopak na naman siguro yon." Tito Elmer
"Belinda, si Bea?" Tita Det
"Ma'am good afternoon po, nagbilin po na wag siya guluhin kasi matutulog siya." Ate Belinda
"Nako Jhoana, go upstairs na lang. Ha? Ikaw na bahala don." Tita Det
"Yes po tita, thank you" jhoana
"If you need anything, ask Belinda na lang okay?" Tita Det
"Thank you po." Jhoana
I texted her again.
Jhoana: Im like 15 stairs away from you. Baka naman???
Isabel: go home
Jhoana: sabihin mo muna sakin na di ka galit
Isabel: Im not so please Jhoana Louisse go home.
Jhoana: ay grabe naman, full name basis ba tayo??? Sorry na po.
Isabel: go home Jho.
I knocked on her door, but she didn't bother to open it.
I knocked again.
and again.
and again.
I hold her door knob and slightly twist it. Di nakalock! Kaso baka lalong magalit pag pumasok ako bigla bigla.
But hell, Jhoana to!
Di ako makakatulog pag di kami nag usap.
I just held on her door knob. For like thirty minutes straight, I'm just quiet behind that door. Hoping she would go outside to check up on me. Ganon siya karupok sakin dati.
Until a great force, opened the door which made me lose my balance.
As usual, me, the princess wanna be nasalo ako syempre ni Bea! Hello! Papabayaan ba ko nito?
"Ay kabayo!"
"Uhm I'm sorry." Jhoana
"Oh you're still here, I said it's fine, just go home Jho." Isabel
I hugged her.
"I'm sorry if I shouted at you earlier, there's no proper justification for that. I should have not done that. Sorry for hurting your feelings and making you feel anxious and upset. I'm sorry Isabel." Jhoana
She hugged me back.
Ay totoo talaga ang balita! Lambing is the key!
Bea POV
I've been battling with myself if I should let her in. What the hell could go wrong right? She doesn't know naman na I remember. Everything.
And if she doesn't stop, and I opened the door and she's still there. Well who knows? Maybe this is the time na I won't let her go without a fight.
She's knocking non-stop but not talking.
"Mapapagod ka din." I whispered to myself.
I lied down on my bed and start contemplating about everything.
The knock stopped, maybe she got tired already.
Sabagay why would I expect, to her, I'm just a part of her past nothing more. A lot of things changed.
And a lot of feelings changed.
It's been five minutes. Still quiet.
I ordered our maid din naman na wag ako istorbohin.
I rolled myself in my bed. It's making me anxious, umalis na ba siya?
Ten minutes, tahimik lang talaga.
Did I upset her? Di na din siya nagtext.
Fifteen minutes.
Maybe she went home already, she's tired.
Anxious right now about the other side of the door.
Twenty Minutes of silence.
Gosh I miss her already? Please comeback and annoy me for the rest of my life.
Twenty five minutes.
Nako umalis na talaga yon. Things are not the same before. Bakit naman niya pagtitiyagaan yung tampo ko??? Hahahahaha sino ba naman ako?
Thirty minutes, wala umalis na talaga. Sobrang tahimik.
I stand up from my bed, held on my door knob.
Quite annoyed na she didn't bother me anymore.
I twist the knob and opened it with heavily.
"Ay kabayo!" Jhoana
"Uhm I'm sorry Isabel." Jhoana
What the hell????? Kinikilig ako!!! She's still here.
"Oh you're still here, I said it's fine, just go home Jho." Isabel
She hugged me and that made my heart to beat so madly.
"I'm sorry if I shouted at you earlier, there's no proper justification for that. I should have not done that. Sorry for hurting your feelings and making you feel anxious and upset. I'm sorry Isabel." Jhoana
"I'm sorry too Jhoana, if I'm gonna be selfish this time, pero hindi na kita muling pakakawalan." I muttered to myself.
I hugged her back.
And on a saturday afternoon, watch how we begin again.
/////

Question? What should be the ending? Can I hear your thoughts, so I'll give you another update!
Ingat guys! Wash ur hands and wear ur masks.
