Chapter 24

" I was young then. It was my first time when something happened to us," I said. Because that's the truth.
"Not obvious buddy, you look like a veteran," it teases.
"Crazy," I said as I took a can of beer and drank it. I'm pretty okay because I've already talked to someone.
"He's a buddy. Don't tell your girlfriend what you found out, but I'll break your bones," I threatened him, but I really wouldn't do that.
"You're serious, I'm not going to lead you asshole. That's your problem, find a solution. You didn't call me when you did that," he teased. Especially if it's a bad trip.
"Asshole. All you have to do is take Tanya seriously, you too might grow old like a young man. It's good that I have a child," I said and I teased her.
"You're so proud, let us have children later," he said. I don’t know if he was joking or serious about what he said.
"You have ten children," I teased her even more. I saw the sharpness of his gaze on me. He was sick so I stopped as well.
"By the way, are you Andrea?" his sudden question. She doesn't seem to believe in my actions.
"Yes, why did you type? If you type I'm sorry, especially now that I know the truth so just back off," I said.
"I don't like Andrea. I like Tanya because we're both more compatible and she can ride my trip in life. But I'm not sure if I r, if I've forgotten Alhea, "It's a long line and I was stunned by what I heard.
"What are you Alhea? What's wrong with you two that I don't know," I asked because I was suddenly confused.
She was my ex-girlfriend during high school. We never went out because she wanted to hide what we had. We've been a secret couple for three years, for Pete's sake. I put up with it all because I love her so much, even though I know you're the one he loves, I accepted it, just don't let him leave me, but it's still not enough that he still left me. The pain hurts buddy, I want to be angry with you but how come you don't know. So he accepted, `` I'm just talking to him separately, "he told me, which surprised me. It exploded like a bomb in my ear.
I patted her back, to make her feel a little better.
"S-sorry buddy. I didn't know and be,ides I only consider him a younger brother and he knows that.
"I know and a few times she cried at me because of your repeated rejection, but asshole so I just let her go. I loved her with all my heart but what she returned was pure pain. I accept what happened "I play a role in her life. I'm just a rebounder, and comforter. I didn't even feel like she considered me his boyfriend for 2 years. Even though I love you, I haven't heard her say that even once," he added. I felt even more sorry for my best friend, why did I get so busy studying and I forgot about it.
"But if I'm the one to ask Alhea or Tanya, I'll choose Tanya for you. Alhea is a very bratinela so much. Let go of your heart in the past first, start with the present and your future," I said. while comforting it.
"You're right buddy. Since I met Tanya I gradually erased Alhea from my system but when she came back and I saw her it was like I threw everything away. I became numb again and something happened to me. How can I tell her Tanya is everything, "he said with an obvious tire mess.
"What? You asshole Why are you like that? You already have a girlfriend, why are you still fooling around," I shouted here. Because I cringed at the last thing he said.
"We were drunk then. And I couldn't help myself. I thought after that we'll get back together, but when I followed him you know where he went? You! I can see how he knelt in front of you and begged you to love him "She's just. The pain of seeing the woman you care about the most go crazy with a man and the pain of seeing your best friend. How much will destiny play out? If it's like this, then I'll just agree so that I won't be hurt again," he said. of it and sniffing sniffles carrying its tears without her being aware of it.
I have nothing to say because I am speechless in the revelations I have learned, I can feel the pain he feels. And what's even more painful is that I hurt his feelings without my knowledge.
I saw him wipe away tears and speak. "Maybe I have to admit to Tanya what happened and if she forgives me and gives me a chance I will never break her trust," she said and her face suddenly became serious.
"That's right buddy, that's how Tanya is for you. Let go of that crazy Alhea first. Even though I have a headache with her. She's like a child who can't understand that I don't like her. She's kind. Tanya, I know it will forgive you, ”I encourage him. Because I feel like he's going to be discouraged.
We've talked a lot more and we've run out of a lot of wine, but only one thing is clear to me. The foundation that my best friend and I built is solid and nothing can ruin that musk woman.
The night was getting a bit darker so we just finished the last can of beer we opened. I decided to stay at his house first because it was too late for me to drive home.
"Buddy, I'll be ahead of you," he said as he entered his room. I was left alone and tried to absorb the revelations I had just known. I thought he would be surprised by what I said, but I would be surprised by what he said.
I poured the last can of beer and got up to go to the master bedroom. Because I know every corner of his house because this is also where I almost stayed when we were still in College. It was his parents' legacy before they disappeared, so he was the first to live with all of us and we made it our home. His house has also undergone a lot of changes, as he has done a lot of new things since he became a licensed architect.
I went inside and slammed my body because I felt like I’d been beaten today. My body seems to be exhausted as well as my mind. I closed my eyes and the happy moments Andrea and I had in Palawan came out of my eyes. I remembered that they would be back tomorrow so I had to pick them up at the airport. I just left messages here. Before I fell asleep, I didn't realize that I had fallen asleep.
The next day I woke up to my cell phone ringing. Even though I was a little drowsy, I peeked at who was called. My secretary, by the way, because I'm still really sleepy. I turned off the cellphone first so that no one could disturb my sleep.
