Chapter 17 - Unexpected Luck
• Jade's Point of View •
"Di tayo tuloy bukas dahil magkakaron na ng practice ang theatre club tuwing Sabado." Yan ang nasabi sa'kin kagad ni Ruben nitong lunch time.
"Why?" I feel bad that we won't get to hang out this weekend, but this is a chance for me to go with Leroi! Napa-inom na lang ako ng tubig so i can hide my damn grin.
"Na-aksidente yung actor na may role na Romeo, at ako yung ipinalit nila." I choked on water! Di ako makapaniwala sa nasabi ni Ruben. "Ano!?"
"Sabi ko ako yung ipinalit nila sa actor nang Romeo..." Seryoso!? "...so i'll be twice as busy. I've got a lot of lines to memorize."
"Are you sure about that!? Hindi ba parang ilang weeks na lang tas play nyo na!?"
"Yeah, but i can manage." Sagot nya at confident pa. Well if he thinks he can do it, then maybe he really can. I'm just glad th

A Love Like Hell Chapter 18 - The Date
• Jade's Point of View •I didn't get much sleep last night 'cause i kept thinking about today, Sabado na at may date kami ni Leroi! And i don't know what to do right now. Di ko alam kung ano susuotin ko tsaka kung ano ayos ng buhok ko."Ugh! Ba't kase di ako marunong mag-make up?" Napanguso lang ako habang nakatingin sa mga make-up products na binili ko. Ba't nga ba ako bumili ng mga ganito, eh di naman ako marunong?Napabuntong hininga lang ako at itinabi na lang ang mga 'to. Ang naiwan lang ang lipstick na kulay pink. Nag-apply ako non ng onti tsaka namili na 'ko ng damit na susuotin. Kaso pagkabukas ko ng closet ko, di ko alam kung ano kukunin ko.Magde-dress ba 'ko? Or jeans? Takte ang hirap naman maging babae! Kinuha ko na lang yung pinakabagong dress na ipinadala sa'kin ni mama at yun na lang ang sinuot ko. Pagkatingin ko naman sa salamin, bu
A Love Like Hell Chapter 19 - Choose Me
• Ruben's Point of View •"...you were great Ruben!" Cheer ni pres.My eyes rolled as she handed me the water bottle for a drink. I'm just damn exhausted from all the practice for the first scene. Matapos kong uminom ay napatanong ako. "Can i really go home after this?" It's almost 4 p.m. at kanina pa nya binabanggit na last practice na 'to for the day but we end up doing it over and over."Yeah, last na talaga 'to promise! Kailangan kasi clean ang execution ng bawat scene. But i think mapeperfect na natin 'to dahil magagaling ang actors ng theatre club, lalo ka na Ruben! I never knew you were so incredible." Alam kong pinupuri nya lang ako para di ako mairita pero mas lalo lang ako naiinis sa pagmumukha nya.She blackmailed me into this role so i hate her. Napalapit naman sa amin si miss clean freak to talk to pres. Nang magkatinginan kami ay inirapan nya lang ako. "Pres, umu
A Love Like Hell Chapter 20 - Just As Fine
• Jade's Point of View •Three weeks later"...let's have lunch at the rooftop later, 'kay?" Leroi said.I gave him a faint smile and a nod, then he gave me a kiss on the forehead bago sya umalis para pumunta sa classroom nya. Pagkapasok ko naman sa classroom ko ay tumabi na ako kay Bella at inilabas na ang libro ko for the first subject. "I still can't really believe that you're going out with Leroi. All this time ineexpect kong si Ruben ang makakatuluyan mo." Aniya. I sighed, "Sinabi ko na sayo na friends lang kami dati ni Ruben okay? We were just friends." Napatingin naman ako kay Ruben na naka-upo sa bandang harapan. He was studying and had a lot people around him. Simula nong hindi na kami nagpansinan, nagulat na lang ako ng biglang sumikat sya ng gan'to. "It's such ashame that you two have to st

• Ruben's Point of View •"...for never was a story of more woe, than this of Juliet and her Romeo." Then that was the end of the final act. Napapalakpak ang mga members na nanonood at lalo naman si pres dahil natapos din namin."I can't wait for this to be shown on stage! You guys did a great job!" Aniya.Nagligpit na ang mga members at nadismiss na ang iba. Balak ko na sanang umuwi ng nilapitan nanaman ako ni pres. "What is it this time?" Malamang may ipapagawa nanaman 'to sa'kin."Pabalik kay Eliza 'tong script nya." Sabi na nga ba eh."Ba't di ikaw magbalik? Ikaw nanghiram diba?""Sige na Ruben! Marami pa 'ko aasikasuhin, please?" I just sighed and took the script from her. Hinanap ko naman si Eliza but she's not in the clubroom.Napatanong naman ako sa kasamahan ko rito sa club. "Hey, where's Eliza?"&n
A Love Like Hell Chapter 22 - Lies
• Jade's Point of View •Ngayong Linggo, pinagplanuhan namin ni Leroi magroadtrip. Na-aamaze lang ako ng malaman kong marunong pala mag-drive si Leroi. I don't why he suddenly made plans like this pero mukhang masaya naman kaya game ako sa plano nya."Buckle up! I'm gonna start the car now." Aniya. Then as we gone straight through the roads, it kinda has a nice feel to it. Just me and Leroi in a car and talking to each other all day. "...you know what? I still can't believe we're together now. Being with you feels like a dream." He said.Napangiti naman ako. "Di rin ako makapaniwala na magkakagusto ang tulad mo sa'kin.""Hmm, why not? I mean, you're pretty, nice, and . To me you're like a breath of fresh air. Eh ikaw? What made you think to date someone like me?" Napa-isip ako, pero i suddenly
A Love Like Hell Chapter 23 - Pre-Final Act
• Ruben's Point of View •"...okay! So this will be the last practice for the day! Act 5, scene 3 from the top!" Sigaw ni pres.Everyone from the club is really working hard today. Bukas na kasi ang pinakahinihintay ng lahat. Pagkatapos talaga ng play na 'to, quit na kagad ako. I'm doing this on behalf of my grades in arts after all.Also, i can't really find any passion for acting. It's like you're playing pretend, but you gotta memorize a lot of crappy lines. Nang mag-umpisa na sila mag-act, nag-ready na ako para sa mga huling linya ko sa play na 'to."Romeo, pasok na." Sabi nung kasama ko na taga-ayos ng props. Pumunta kagad ako sa stage and did the best i could in delivering my lines.And as i fought with the guy who has Paris's role, i improved my way of defeat and dying. Habang nakahiga ako sa sahig to pretend that i'm dead, i was quite bored waiting
A Love Like Hell Chapter 24 - The End Of Romeo And Juliet
• Ruben's Point of View •"Go Rubeeeen!""Classmate namin yan!!" "Class 1-11 supports you Ruben!" Naririnig ko na ang pangalan ko sa mga kaklase ko from outside this stage curtain. Napahalakhak naman si pres. "Sobrang sikat ni Ruben ah."My eyes just rolled. "Yeah right." Even though they're my classmates they're still nothing but a bunch of strangers to me."Anyways, someone's here to give his full support!" Banggit ni pres, then he suddenly came out. He was on a wheelchair and had cement on both of his legs. "Hi guys!!" It was Neil.Nagsilapitan ang lahat para kamustahin sya. Matapos non ay lumapit sya sa akin para kausapin ako. "Dude, i never thought ikaw ang papalit sa'kin! Nakakagulat lang, kinaya mong i-memorize lahat ng linya sa role ko!" Napangisi lang ako. "It was

• Jade's Point of View •"Leroi, i don't think this is a good idea. Also, i never skipped classes before!"He chuckled and pulled me inside his car. "It's fine! Minsan lang naman 'to hahaha!"Nitong Biyernes, niyaya ako ni Leroi na umabsent just to attend a party. It feels exciting and scary at the same time dahil first time ko 'to. Habang nagda-drive na sya ay medyo kinakabahan ako. What if hanapin ako sa school today? What if biglang tumawag 'yung mga teacher kay dad kung bakit wala ako? What if nalaman 'to ni dad at pagalitan ako non?Na-stress na 'ko kakaisip ng bigla akong hawakan ni Leroi sa balikat. "Don't overthink it Jade, tsaka may event ngayon sa school. Walang klase. And I think 'yung event tungkol sa play ng theatre club."Parang medyo nakahinga ako ng maluwag sa nabanggit nya. Pero medyo nanghihinayang din ako dahi
