sagot ko naman. "Then why a lot of people are saying that? Inaway ka rin ng ex niya because of him," sabi na naman ni Ate. Napailing naman ako magsalita. Hindi ko sila masisisi dahil nasa bagong generation na kami ngayon. Makita lang ang isang babae at isang lalaki na magkasama ay aakalain na talagang magkasintahan sila. "Friends lang kami ni Stefan. He's nice to me kaya ibinabalik ko lang 'yon sa kaniya. I don't know why people are over reacting about our friendship," paliwanag ko naman pagkatapos ay napairap ako.

Nakakatawang ilang taon na silang magkasamang dalawa but after he had saved her, their friendship almost focused about him and nothing about her. Yes, he may had showered her gifts and foods pero napagtanto niyang hindi lang pala sa materyal na bagay iikot ang lahat. Relationships and friendships should have a deeper understanding and emotion. Pero dahil nasanay siyang palaging ayos lang si Psyche sa paningin niya, he disregard whatever is inside her mind dahil masyado siyang kampante.

She asked again. I shooked my head. "Surgeon doctor, pero pag hindi palarin. I'll take over my family legacy." She nodded her head then said, "That's great... Im looking forward to be friends with you." Ngumiti ako sa sinabi niya. Kaibigan? Do I really need a friend? I have a lot of friends but some of them are using me, in short toxic.

Ayaw niya nang basta-basta lang. “There. Pampaganda ng kamay mo,” saad niya.

May bahid ng kaunting ngiti sa kanyang labi pero nanatiling seryoso ang ipinapakitang reaksyon. "We're... uhm..." my frown deepened and I was so unsure of what to say next pero pinili ko na lang na... "just friends." I'm sure as hell we aren't. Kakakilala lang namin. But since we're already sharing a meal, it wouldn't hurt to answer it with that, right? Yeah. We're... kind of friends. Aren't we? I know that we already shared a moment. He lent me his handkerchief when I needed it and stayed by my side even though didn't need to. And that's basically the definition of a friendship right?

“We are your friends.” Ngumiti ako at tumango. “I know and thank you,” sabi ko. “Pero kung kayo din naman ang mangangailangan ng tulong, huwag din kayong mahihiya na tawagan ako. That is what friends are for, right? We can count on each other.” Friends… That is something that I don’t really have growing up.

Basta malayo 'yang mga iniisip mo sa katotohanan! Nagsend lang siya ng crying emojis na para nga bang nalulungkot talaga siya sa sinabi ko. Alangan din namang sabihin kong pwede kami ni Chris maging more than friends 'di ba? Binalewala na nga ako nu'ng tao eh! Napakahirap ngang maging magkaibigan kami, more than friends pa kaya? *********

“Just tell me why you don’t want me to go then I will not go.” Gusto niyang sabihin na huwag na itong tumuloy sa pag-alis pero sino ba siya? Hindi naman siya ang girlfriend nito. Hindi rin kaibigan. Friends lang naman sila—with benefits nga lang pero wala namang espesyal doon…sa kama nga, wala. “Charing lang ‘no. Umalis ka na kung aalis ka bago pa uminit ulo ko sa ‘yo.”

Hindi ko siya inimikan at pinagpatuloy nalang ang paglalakad. I don't want people to think that we're close. I'm not planning to get close or be friends with him. Not that I don't think he's kind, I think he's kind. But I've never met friends of opposite sex became really just friends. And I've seen how other people don't see them just being friends even if they are just really friends. And in the end it destroys their friendship. I don't think it's a good idea to be friends with a guy, especially guys like him. Good looking. Girls will hate on me. They would think I'm stealing their crush.

Inakit nya si Joaquín, hindi tumatanggi ang kaibigan sa kahit na sinong nagpapakita ng motibo sa kanya. Well, hindi na sila matalik na magkaibigan ngayon. Pero magkaibigan pa rin naman, may malisya nga lang. They’re on another level. They’re fuck buddies. Friends with benefits. Napapilig na naman sya sa naisip.
