THE GOOD EQUAL | #TGEC31
IRIS
You start to really live the day you decide not to let others influence how you live your life...
It sounds so easy but in reality, it isn't. I would love to talk to people who were able to do that because that shit so hard to materialize. It takes a lot of push...diversions...and one person that will let you drain the last piece of the devil inside your brain.
...and It's really the person you never saw coming that'll change your life.
Meanwhile, while I'm manifesting everything—Kaia, who is sitting beside me, was doing the opposite. She has been praying to God since morning to give her a boyfriend this insta

THE GOOD EQUAL | #TGEC27IRISI woke up with a throbbing headache, swollen eyes, and a shattered heart.Hindi pa muna ako bumangon, hinayaan ko ang sarili kong matulala sa kisame. I am fully aware that I am in Kaia's house, napilit niya ako na sa bahay na lang nila umuwi. Hindi niya ako hinayaan umuwi mag-isa sa dorm sa kalagayan ko. Na kahit hindi naman niya alam, ay nagawa niyang intindihin.One-year.It's been one year since I saw that devil's face. I almost forgot his entire existence. I almost forgot what he fucking did to me. I almost forgot that night. Pero bakit makita ko lang siya bumalik na naman ang lahat. Okay na ako e... masaya na ako. Pero bakit ba pilit iyon binabalik ng tadhana. Can't they just be happy for me? That I pulled through?Nakakapagod na. Napapagod na akong umiyak.But did you know that 17 muscles are activated when we're crying?Yeah I know because fitness is my pass

THE GOOD EQUAL | #TGEC33IRIS"Nakahanda na mga gamit niyo?"My forehead creased. They sound alike like my sister already. Ganyan na ganyan lagi ang tanong ni ate sa akin pati ang tono."You should be aware that you sound exactly like my sister, and its bad news..." I replied while switching the camera to the back. "Ito na oh! Malaking maleta na 'yan. Yan lang ang dadalhin namin, okay ka na?" tanong ko sa kanya."Okay very good! Now, umalis ka dyan sa screen at ipakita mo sa akin ang anak mo," utos ni Kaia and I rolled my eyes. Lumabas ako ng kwarto at pumunta sa sala. Nasa sala kasi sina Jacques dahil nandito sina Ate sa apartment namin. Hindi raw k

THE GOOD EQUAL | #TGEC34IRISIsang studio type sa isang residential area sa Makati ang tutuluyan namin ni Jacques. Si Kaia ang pumili nito para sa amin at siya na rin ang nag-ayos ng lahat. Pagkarating namin ay natuwa ako dahil kumpleto na ang mga gamit. May isang maliit na couch sa dulo ng kama, may maliit na mesa at upuan, mini ref, at pati mga groceries ay meron na rin. White lang din ang pintura ng walls at mas lalong lumaki ang ngiti ko nang may makita akong mga laruan."Thanks Kaia..." naluluhang sabi ko. "Pero diba sabi ko pag-uwi na lang namin tayo bumili ng mga gamit?"Binaba ni Kaia si Jacques sa kama at doon niya ito nilaro bago tumingin sa akin."Ayoko nang mapagod kayong mag-ina kaya inasikaso ko na lahat. Besides, order din 'to ni Ate Irca."Tumango-tango ako, "Okay, thank you..." pasasalamat ko ulit. She has done enough for me and Jacques. That sometimes I feel like saying thank you wasn't en

THE GOOD EQUAL | #TGEC35IRIS"Asan ka? Bakit wala ka dito sa hallway?" I asked Kaia when she picked up the call."Nasa canteen ako," sagot niya."Bakit nandyan ka na? Kala ko hihintayin mo ako?""I know! Kaso nataranta ako nang makita ko si Joaquin na naglalakad! Madadaanan niya ako, Ris! Sa sobrang taranta ko lumabas ako!" natatawang kwento niya.Natawa rin ako, "Nagulat din ako sa pagpasok niya sa office ni Dean. Pero mamaya ko na i-kkwento. Nasan ka nga ulit?""Canteen.""Which one?"

THE GOOD EQUAL | #TGEC36IRIS"Kurt and Mags?" Kaia exclaimed, sporting the same reaction I wore yesterday.I nodded, "You didn't know?"Hindi ko kasi nasabi sa kanya ito kahapon dahil hindi kami sabay umuwi. Nakalimutan ko rin sabihin sa kanya kaninang umaga dahil nawala rin sa isip ko. Ngayon ko lang natandaan no'ng paglabas namin.I was gone for one year, this kind of issue was out of my reach. Hindi rin naman ako nagtatanong. Wala akong paki-alam. But knowing Kaia, she probably scoops some details because well, she's here—breathing the same air with them. But the way Kaia seemed taken aback about my question, I already concluded that she di

THE GOOD EQUAL | #TGEC37IRISKaia's investment between Joaquin and I's relationship was heightened over time. Akala ko ngayong may kalandian na siya ay titigilan na niya ako sa katatanong tungkol kay Joaquin. I was pissed at first, reasoning that my plan is still the plan—nothing changes. But the encounter last night with him awoke the sleeping curiosity of Kaia."Gaga! Para sa anak niyo naman tong dalawa!"Natigil ako sa tangkang pag-sagot. Kapag nasasama talaga si Jacques sa mga ganitong usapan ay napipipi ako. Bigla akong natatanga kapag anak ko na ang pinag-uusapan."Basta, Kaia. Ayun pa rin ang plano. I'll buy Joaquin and I time, then unt

THE GOOD EQUAL | #TGEC38IRISAs much as I want to spend time cuddling with Jacques all day—which became impossible due to my responsibility as a student, weekdays are my only saving grace.But school is really out there murdering my only chance to be with my son.May meeting lahat ng graduating students ngayon para sa darating na Immersion. At napili pa talaga nilang itapat sa sabado ang meeting. Hindi ko alam kung talaga bang malas ang program namin dahil Comm lang ang nag-iisang sabado ang assembly for immersion. Dawalang araw na nga lang ang oras ko para kay Jacques nakuha pa nilang kunin. Hindi naman ako pwede magrason na may anak ako dahil malaking issue 'yon.

I asked in disbelief."Jacques is my son, Iris..." he stated.Natutop ko ang bibig ko at isa-isa nang nagbagsakan ang mga luha ko. Hindi pa rin ako makapaniwalang tumitig sa kanya."Ano bang pinagsasasabi mo—""Iris please..." nagulat ako nang makitang umiiyak na rin si Joaquin.Oh my god."It's been one year, Iris. I
