Love Unfolding

MEI TREVOR

"… I"m not sleeping in the same bed with you!"

"Wow"

It has been hours since I"ve been arguing with Donna. She"s like a solid rock in her stance.

"Darnit"

"And what do you suggest?" I shouted back.

"Should I sleep on the cold floor?"

"… and what"s with this resort?"

"They don"t even have extra mattress!"

I could hear Donna sneered at me at that.

"And why are you complaining to me?"

"Do I own the place?"

"Gosh"

She"s really p.i.s.sing me off.

"Wether you like it or not, we are sleeping together!"

And I made Donna"s eyes round with that. I know I constructed my sentence wrongly but I won"t retract it anyway.

"Hahaha"

"In your dreams!"

She eyed me right there while hugging herself as though I"m going to ravish her.

"Wow"

"Huh, what"s this?" I smirked.

"Huh…"

"This is what most straight girls" problem is…"

"You automatically think WE WANT YOU."

"Goodness, we have taste for G.o.ddam sake!"

And with that, I know I hit a nerve.

It"s not like Donna isn"t beautiful but I"m not admitting that in her face.

"Bleh"

She snickered at me and I could tell she"s fuming in anger.

"Huh, just right back at you, you SHRIMP!"

And that … hit a nerve on me.

I surveyed my body from my toes to my busted b.r.e.a.s.t.s.

"Me?"

"A SHRIMP?"

I can"t possibly accept that.

Just as much as my body is to drool for, my face is to die for.

"Goodness"

"And you… BIPOLAR!" I snapped back.

And that enraged Donna even more. Her chest was rising and falling in anger.

"Hahaha"

And I"m enjoying that.

"What did you just say?"

"BIPOLAR."

I reached out a pillow and took a step backwards towards the door.

I could already feel the change in Donna"s energy, going darker.

"Hahaha"

But I"m not scared. I just felt like running away.

"BIPOLAR, BIPOLAR, BIPOLAR…"

"BIPOLAR!..." I shouted again before finally getting out the door.

[*******]

So here, I ended up in Erika and Andy"s room.

As much as I regretted barging in, I can"t really undo it anymore.

I was really sorry.

"And readers, forgive me, okay?"

So I was lying in bed with the both of them cuddling at my side.

"d.a.m.n"

I did not gave a thought before coming over in their room. I was so occupied of p.i.s.sing off Donna and wanting to get some sleep that I forgot the state of my heart when it comes to Andy.

And of all time, sleep did betray me.

So I was wide awake, staring at the ceiling with the two love birds at my side.

"funny"

But it wasn"t that bad after all.

I have this feeling of fear before, that I avoided meeting Andy if possible.

A lot of Erika"s invitations were bluntly rejected by me in the past months so as not to ignite the fire I have been quenching.

I was scared that if I meet Andy even once, my buried feelings would come alive.

So it took my all when I accepted Erika"s plea of getting everyone together for a drink one night.

And again, everything wasn"t really bad as I thought it would be.

Surprisingly, it didn"t hurt anymore.

Yeah, I"m not hurt anymore.

Was it just INFATUATION?

No…

I know for myself that it was LOVE and it"s real.

You know it"s real when it hurts.

And it seriously hurts at that time that it made me devastated for a couple of months.

And now…

Guess this is what it felt like of someone who has moved on.

I know now that it"s over.

Well, it never really began but in my heart I know it did.

And now it"s over.

So I guess this is "closure".

Moving on isn"t easy. I"d been sad, angry, devastated but with all my might I continued to live my life without Andy and tried to erase even the thought of her.

It was hard but then... time really heals all wound.

And here I am now, I just woke up one day… not loving Andy anymore, that way.
