hey friend

are you ignoring me
again?

no?

di ka sure

ba't di ka makatingin
sa mata ko? hirap mo
tuloy kausapin

i figured you could use a
friend, since doveo and
ethan went home early

o baka may naalala
kang iba kapag nakikita
mo ako?

I thought we agreed not
to talk about that night

i never said it's
about that night, kino

was that what you're
thinking?

don't lie to me, aleah

I know how you and
your straightforward
mind of yours works

one way or another, you
want me to think of that
night

you caught me 😜

why are you so
persistent?

does knowing I remember
helps you feel better somehow
or what?

so you do remember?

yes, aleah

see? it's not that hard
to admit

is that what you want?

hmm not really

then what do you want
from me, aleah?

you

what?

you should've seen
your reaction HAHAH

quit playing games with
me, aleah

you might regret it

i wasn't playing games
when i said you're the
one i want

if what I'm thinking
is right, then don't even
think I'll do it

you like playing
mind games, do you?

ano ba na sa isip mo?

you know what I mean, aleah

what if i don't?

hey wait, where are
you going?

I'm going to cool
my head off

I heard the list is out.

what about it?

Akala ko ba sabi ko
sayo na dapat ikaw
lang sa buong batch
niyo ang kasama
sa President's List?

Ba't kasama si Gonzales
o kung sino man siya.

Your dad was not like
that during his college days,
Kino.

He's always the only one
on top of his batch. Dapat
ganoon ka rin.

are we really having
this conversation?

and what, sasabihin mo
na naman sakin na dapat
pagbutihin ko pa lalo
pag-aaral ko kasi nakasalalay
sakin yung dream ni dad

you know what mom?
I'm so fed up with all the
pressure you give me

have you even
asked me if I liked
nursing?

Don't you dare talk
back to me, Kino. I'm
your mother!

the mother I knew was
long gone after you dragged
dad, me and you're drunken
ass, driving around the city

you're the reason
why dad died, okay?

I didn't even see you
mourn for him

and instead, you always
spent the night out,
flirting with random guys
as if dad never existed

How much will I have
to tell you I don't do
that anymore? That I
regret every action I
made that night?

no amount of words
would ever make me
forgive you

and to think na sa tingin mo papatawarin ka niya
kapag pinasa mo sakin
yung dream niya is
absolute bullshit

dad won't forgive you
for that so why would I

now, stop messaging me
if you don't have
anything pleasant to say

Umuwi ka na nga
dito at mag-usap tayo.

no

don't expect me
to come home

Kino!
