βCome on, Monique! Letβs enjoy the party after a tiring day.β Eunice grabbed my hand and lead me to her table.
Earlier, I told Eunice na hindi na ako sasama dito sa party sapagkat pagod ako. But since kami ang make up artists, at wala naman akong magagawa dahil pinilit ako ng kaibigan ko, sumama na lang ako.
βI donβt know but I think, I already saw that man. I just donβt remember...β
βIllusiyon mo lang βyan.β I said while pouring my glass with red wine.
I need to find some distractions or else-
βAww, theyβre so sweet!β napatingin ako sa stage kung saan nakaupo ang bagong kasal.
I saw how happy he is while singing a song to his wife. I saw how his eyes glimmers, how his smile turn wide when he saw his wife smiling at him.
His wife held his hand after a romantic song and uttered βI love you so much, love. Vraime.β
The man hugged him. The crowds cheers for them.
βAre you okay?β
Doon lang ako natauhan nang marinig ang boses ni Eunice.
βAre you crying?β
Pinipilit kong pigilan ang pagbagsak ng maliliit na butil mula sa aking mga mata, siguro dahil na sa nakikita ko. Masaya lang ako sa kanila.
Pero hindi e. Ang bigat, ang sakit pala.
βIβm just glad!β I gave her a wide smile to assure that Iβm fine but she just looked at me like sheβs examining my facial expressions.
Hindi ko na napigilan ang mga luhang kaninaβy pinipigilan ko. Ilang oras akong nakapagtiis na hindi maapektuhan pero bakit sa mga huling oras na naririto ako, ngayon ko pa naramdaman ang pait, ngayon pa talaga nag flashback lahat ng mga ala-ala?
βOMG, you are really crying, Monique.β I just felt her tumbs wiping my tears.
I got the courage to tell her the reason.
βSheβs got the man, I got the boy.β
βHe was my first lo--β
βShiii-- what? Kaya pala familiar.β
βYour childhood friend, your ex boyfriend.β
Naramdaman ko ang mahigpit na yakap ni Eunice na siyang naging sandalan habang nakikita ko kung gaano kalaki ang nagbago sa sa lalaking minsan ay naging akin.
Heβs a man now. A grown up man.
βTara, letβs go home .β
The reality of life hits me so bad
Sheβs got the man, and I got the boy.
