For the record it's one and a half years ago when we decided to stopped being friends. No talks/texts/greetings at all. Just going on with our lives like before, it was hard. I lost my guru in online-lan gaming (Hail to you when you play Dota!), I lost my confidante who wouldn't get mad at me when I start whining, I lost my partner in crime and my tell-all friend, and most especially I lost a friend who I thought would be there FOREVER! :(

It was sad, but then I realized that this is all for the better. We need air, we need space, we have different set of friends from the start and we need to devote time for them too. We couldn't be the best of friends anymore and he just can't tolerate my princesslike attitude anymore. (Err, or unprincesslike attitude)

That span of time led us to a lot of changes and I even went to the point of hating him just because he left me hanging there. I never even let him explain his side or because he didn't let me explain mine.

One time, as I was going home.. I hailed the first jeep I saw and sat at the left side. I looked at my side, Lo and behold. It was him. I panicked! We were not on speaking terms but it's too late to climb down the jeep. It was the one of the longest minutes of my life I don't know what to do. Turns out he was sleeping all along. Whew! :)

It was all too soon when time finally catched up on us. It started with random texts and stories until we decided to hang out again and talk. We strolled at the mall, making fun of people or in his part making fun of me. There were a lot of changes in him and in me. There were still those moments of dead-air that consumes our talks. There were still those petty fights we do. But there is that distinct level of maturity in him and lack of maturity on my part. My best boy bud is now a man. I thought. There is an air of man-ness in him. The boy who I tell my deepest and darkest secrets is now a MAN! WOW! =))

It was weird, during those times of catching up. I told him about my crush/es, my academics and my embarrasing moments. We would laugh hard and then he would give me "How to's": How to make my crush notice me and How this and that works. He even went to the point of saying that my current style is bulok. Boy, was I impressed. HAHAHA :))
In return, I would teased him about his taste in girls. Like his current crush got the biggest and most unproportional body. Take that :P and I would distinctly call him DUDE every now and then just to annoy him. He said that I'm sounding like a boy already. :P

I also learned a lot that day on how he really felt about me. I never thought he would be that angry to me, in scale of 1-10 (1-lowest and 10-highest) his anger meter was 11. I was shocked and dumbfounded that a person so close to me would get mad at me that bad. I started tearing up and saying sorry from all the things I've done. I've neglected him and treated him badly. He said it was okay, it's already in the past.

I got my lipgloss and did a quick gloss in my lips. He said: "Chapstick-green..Hindi pa din nagbabago" and that I know that deep down inside were still going to be friends and everythings will turn out okay. :)

Thank You!
My deepest and darkest secrets are yours to keep. :))
Haha. More bonding next time dude! :D
