 Chapter 8: Nothing More & Nothing Less 

~Tyler~

I left her.

I’m sorry, Alli.

I have to go to Canada and visit my sick and dying father. My parents broke up a year ago, because my dad went on with his second wife. Leaving my mother, my little sister and I alone. That’s why we moved to Manila. And now, he’s ill? What the fuck does he want right now? He’s not telling me he misses his son? What the hell…I’m only doing this because my mom wants me to.

I went on my Facebook to send Alli a message why I didn’t showed up at the prom. I want to say sorry and—Oh crap, wala pa siyang Facebook account. Good thing my account nga pala si Heart, I open my inbox and ang daming nag-send sakin ng link na to pero pare-parehas lang naman yung photo. I look closely and…

What the fuck is this?!

I can’t believe with what I’m seeing right now. Anger and jealousy was getting all inside me. I fold my fingers into a hard fist and slam it into to the table. How did she do this to me? Why is she kissing him? Are they together? But she’s mine! I’m Alli’s one and only! And why Derek Santiago?! Why him? That fucking asshole, I knew he’s up to something!

But I won’t give up.

He thinks I can’t join their little game?

I’ll show Santiago, I’ll show him.

If they want to play this game,                        

Then let’s play.

You: Hi, Heart! :D

~Alli~

I swear I don’t believe in a second that the “first kiss curse thingy” is true because I know that it’s not and it’s too impossible to happen. But the next morning, I consulted Madam Victoria. I don’t know exactly why I came here but all I have is a single question in my mind that wanted a single answer.

“Bakit siya?” I said, “Bakit siya ang humalik sa akin?”

“Nako iha, hindi ko masasagot yan.” Madam V answers me.

“Ha? Bakit ho?”

“Only fate will answer you.”

“Only fate will answer me?”

“Oo, iha.”

“Hindi ko po gets.”

“Okay, tapos na fifteen minutes mo.” Madam V says, checking the clock.

“Next!” She yells at the door, calling her next customer.

“Pero—“

“Iha, tapos na fifteen minutes’ mo.”

“Pero hindi niyo naman po nasagot yung tanong ko!”

“Pwede ka nang umalis, next!” She yells out again.

“Argh!” I groaned, standing up from my chair and head to the exit.

 “Oh,late ka ah.” Sabi ni chief, in his boxer shorts and a coffee in his hand. “Ang sabi ko 10:00 am.”

“Pasenya na chief, na-over slept lang.” I said. Nakakatamad! First day ng bakasyon namin nagtatrabaho ako.

“Osige, tawagin mo na lang akong tito.” He says, with a smile. “Oh siya nga pala, baguhin na rin natin tong kulay ng kotse at yung mga ibang spare parts na luma na. Ibibigay ko sana to sa anak ko eh. Pero wag mong ipapaalam sa kanya ha.”
