Bestfriend Goo

Act 1
Setting: 11:30 Mar. 02 inside my car. We were removing the darned Dashield. I was using my dad's
balisong and he was using a brand new gilette blade that we bought from the
tindahan. The mood was light. We were listening to a bit of music. We gave each other the
occassional flirty looks. Everything was going great.

BSCPA: Aaaaaaaaaaaaah!
Me: O baket?!
BSCPA: Natusok ako ng blade, ang sakit!
Me: Patingin nga... (Horrified by the sight of blood.) Pucha! (Getting a piece of tissue and
wiping the blood away.) Mag-ingat ka nga!
BSCPA: Sorry po ah!
Me: Laki-laki na tatanga-tanga pa... (Whispering.)
BSCPA: (Laughs) Concerned...
Me: Oo naman!
BSCPA: Talaga lang ah?! (Smiling sheepishly.)
Me: Yeah... (devilish grin) I kinda like yah... (Trying not to laugh out loud.)
BSCPA: (Pausing, yet smiling.) Haha! Diddo!

Scene ends with another flirty smile as we continued to remove the dashield thingie.

Act II
Setting: After dinner, he picks me up for ice cream. Things were going so well and I really wanted to see
him. In our favorite resto in antipolo... We were sitting in our favorite chair. Smoking a few cigs
while waiting for our ice cream... Talkie-talkie for a while. A little intimite touching, and kissing...

Me: Uy, nakikita yung stars ko tonight.
BSCPA: O? Ang galing mo, lagi mong nakikita.
Me: Hu-weeeeeell... Ako pa!
(Silence.) (He did that thingie that he likes to do that I just simply love and an idea popped in my
head.)
Me: Papalitan ko na yung pangalan ng stars ko... Hindi na 7 stars Anthony...
BSCPA: Ano na?
Me: 7 stars *******
BSCPA: (Holding my hand tighter) Talaga lang ha... Haha!
Me: (Laughing) Kilig ka jan!
(Uncomfortable silence.)
Me: May secret akong sasabihin sayo... Pero you can't tell anyone, ok?
BSCPA: Sure.
(Interrupted by the arrival of the ice cream. I contemplated in my head whether I should go through
with it.)
Me: (Not thinking...) (Whispering.) I kinda love you.
BSCPA: (Looking at me, not looking shocked or anything.. Just looking at me. Smiling.) Hehe!
(Giving me a peck on the forehead.)

(I was left with a major ache. Feeling stupid. Annoyed. Embarrassed. And ultimately just
heartbroken.)

Act III
Scene: 11:59 pm. In my room on the telephone with Oggs. I told him what just happened. The guy is in the hospital but he has a phone and I just haaaaaaaaaad to talk to him.

Oggs: Puta talaga? (Laughing)
Me: Hindi nakakatawa to ok! Bakit ganon sha? Dati lagi shang nagrereklamo na never ko man

ipapa-fall niya ako para i-dump niya ako! Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!
Oggs: **** cool ka lang! Hindi naman natin alam eh.
Me: Karma ko to eh! Grabe! Ayoko na! Ayoko na talaga!
Oggs: Eh bakit mo naman kasi sinabi un? Malay mo hindi niya narinig? Or baka di niya naintindihan!
Me: Puta! Binulong ko sa tenga niya pare!
Oggs: (Laughing) Ok lang yan ****! Kilala ko si **!
Me: (Screaming!) Ako din!!!!!

Oggs: Eto lang ****, when you said it, did you mean it?
