THE PROMISE

"Raf, come back here where almost done"

"Izha, wear your clothes Im not on the mood"

"But I need you inside me!"

"I sai—" before I can finish, my phone beep

From: Love

Love,Im on the outside of your house go fetch me here marami akong dala.

"Raf where are you going?" I went outside the house with out answering.

"Did I told you that you don't need to come here and buy stuffs for me?"

"Love I saw your fridge last time at wala kanang stock ng foods wag kana magalit diyan" she's about to hug me when a Izha went outside wearing my shirt. I look for Shane's reaction pero wala man lang ditong nabago. Still with her full smile.Like always

"You're here pala Izha, sakto nag grocery ako let's eat together" she grab my hands and Izha's and led us inside the house.

"Para namang may namatayan bakit ang tahimik nyo hahaha" i dont know why she's acting like this. Wala ba talaga siyang alam?

"B-Best" Izha seems nervous, well thats given. She just cought cheating with her besfriends boyfriend sino ba namang hindi kakabahan dun.

"Hmm?" there's something wrong about her.

"B-Best let me explain"

"You dont need too. You dont need to explain how my boyfriend.." she look at me

"...fucked you last night" then to Izha. I can't see any hatred on her eyes. And it creeps the hell of me.

"Its ok you don't need to explain anything to me.I understand. We all adult anyway. Btw, I have a company meeting today so bye" then she left. She's been like that. She seems don't care about the silly things I always did behind her back. Minsan, hindi ko alam kung talagang mahal nya ako.She acts like she don't care. And it irritates me more.

An unknown punch stop me from kissing the girl I just met. I am now here on my friends bar. Opening kaya inimbitahan nya kaming barkada nya.

"F*uck! what the hell is wrong with you Tristan" I angrily groan to Shane's bestfriend.

"NO RAF! WHAT THE F*UCK IS WRONG WITH YOU!CAN YOU JUST KEEP YOUR F*CKING DICK INSIDE YOU F*CKING PANTS BECAUSE YOU HAVE A GIRLFRIEND FOR PETES SAKE!"

"Don't mind my business Trist It doesnt concern you" tatalikod na sana ako ng isang suntok nanaman ang nakuha ko mula kay Tristan.

"Its my damn business Raf. You're a jerk for being a cheater! Stop playing your dirty games Raf kung ayaw mo na sa bestfriend ko let her go hindi yung harap harapan mong pinagmumukha sakanya ang kalokohan mo!"

"Tss,ask your friend. I know she knows all of this and she doesn't care so why bother? Walang kakahantungan yang pananakit mo saakin kasi mismong besfriend mo walang paki alam sa mga pinag gagagawa ko!"

"I do" a voice from a girl behind Tristan. That's the time I realize na kasama nya pala si Shane. She's with him all this time and she saw and hear everything.

"S-Shane" shes in full tears I want to wipe those pero ayaw gumalaw ng mga paa ko sa mga pwesto nito

"I do care Raf but I choose to stop my self from doing anything. Instead of saying anything that could hurt both of us I remained silent. Instead of slapping you, I hug you. Instead of asking for your reason why you did all of those things, I kissed you. Want to know why? Because Im fulfilling the promise you said to me. Don't you remember what you said Raf? Pag dumating yung oras na magloloko ka patawarin kita kasi hindi mona yun uulitin pa, pag dumating yung oras na nakalimutan mo kung bakit moko minahal sabihin kolang na mahal kita maaalala mona. I did all of that Raf but what happend? You seem entertained seeing me hurting. I waited you Raf. I waited the Raf I love to come back. But on the things you said just now?my last straw of patience already gone."

"S-Shane pls" tinaboy nya ang kamay ko ng sinubukan kong hawakan siya

"Lets stop this toxic relationship we have Raf. Im tired. You can f*cked all the girl you want, the hell I care. This time, I mean it." then she walk out of the door and leave me there regreting. Im about to follow her when Tristan stop me

"Your an as*hole thinking that shes fine with the things you did to her. Wake up dude! She's been crying all the time." then he left. I grasp my hair because of frustrations. Damn. I lost her,did I?
