We still came at the birthday party despite what happened earlier. 
"Greggy!" Anton said. My world stops. Catali and I looked at each other. I slowly look around and saw Greggy with his fanceé. 
"Happy Birthday, Ton" I heard Greggy said. He catched me as I looked at them. I immediately diverted my eyes. 
"Happy Birthday, Anton" I heard Alliana said. 
"Thank you, Greg and Alliana. Mabuti naman at sinama mo si Alli" I heard Anton said. 
"Of course" Greg said. I glanced at them and saw Greggy holding Alliana's waist. I stared at my food. 
Cali holds my hand and smiled a little. 
"Are you okay?" Cali mouthed. I nodded and continued to eat. 
Cali coughed, I gave her water and looked her. "Hey" I sworriedly said. 
"W-where's Dawn? I think we're good to go?" Catali said and stood up. "Sh!t" She cursed because she accidently hit the glases so the water spilled on her clothes.
"Anton! S-sorry I-I'm late" I heard someone said. I looked arround and it's Diego. 
"Let's go na?" I said and worriedly looked at Cali. 
"Wait, CR lang ako" Cali looked and walked away. 
Diego met my eyes and He smiled and nodded. I raised my eyebrow and smiled a little too. 
CALI'S POV
I entered th CR and wiped my clothes with a tissue. 
"Malas" She cursed. Catali looked at her face on the mirror. 'How stupid I am to forgot that Diego is friends with Anton?' She said to herself. 
She growned and continue to wiped her clothes. She freshen up and went out of the CR. 
She bumped with someone, and her bag fell out. "S-sorry, nagmamadali kasi ako eh" I said and bite my lips.
"I'm sorry" The guy said and gave me my bag. It's DIEGO! I wanted to shout. 
His eyes just looking at me. His teary eyes makes my heart melt. "S-sorry" He said and looked at my eyes and smiled a lttle. 
When I was about to go he held my hand. 
"C-can we talk?" Diego said. I swallowed a lump of my throat. 
"Hindi na kailangan" I said. 
"Cali, please" He said and a tear escaped on his cheek. 
"Wag kang umiyak, walang nakakaiyak" I said and removed my hand he's holding. 
"Saan ba tayo maguusap?" I asked. We went outside. I cleared my throat. 
"Sorry ha?" Diego said and looked down. 
"Alam kong nasaktan kita, at alam ko ring masaya ka na ngayon. Sana binigyan mo manlang ako ng oras para ipaliwanag yung sarili ko, Cali" 
"Ito na ngayon diba? I am letting you explain yourself, Diego. You'll explain every detail on how you cheated?" 
"A-alam kong kasalanan ko, kaso tuwing gusto ko kasing ayusin yung relasyon natin gusto mo ring tapusin ih" 
"Kasalanan ko? S-sinong nag-hamon ng hiwalayan? Diego, ikaw. Pinili mong tapusin kesa ayusin" 
"S-sorry" He said and sniffed. 
"Napagod lang naman ako dahil hindi ko nararamdaman yung pagmamahal mo. Sorry kung hinahanap ko sa iba yung pagmamahal na hindi mo nabibigay ng mga oras na yun. Pinagsisisihan ko lahat ng ginawa ko, Cali. Miss na kita. Hindi ko pala talaga kaya ng wala ka" Diego said and cried harder.
