Mga bakla, I have question.
But before that, here’s an outfit I wore a couple of weeks ago. Hindi ko na post here before I left for our vacation.
Dress: ZARA; Shoes: KARA ZAPATOS
So back to my question.
Sa mga kasal na diyan, do you still get jealous? I mean like, nagseselos pa din kayo sa mga asawa niyo?
May kwento kasi ako.
Alvin has this ex-girlfriend. Napaka-ganda niya teh. Ang amo ng face and ang ganda talaga. When I saw Alvin with her nung sila, I was like, pakshet, parang ang pangit ko ah. Mga bata pa kami nun. They had a pretty long relationship. Hindi nga daw sila nag-aaway eh kasi ang bait nung girl. Meaning, kabaliktaran ko. So there, maganda na tapos mabait pa. Bwiset.
So all those years that Alvin and I were on and off, she was the only girl I was jealous of. Buti na lang when they broke up, hindi sila speaking terms so wala namang problema. There was Friendster that time so I had means to stalk her. Hindi ko ba alam. Ganito din ba kayo? Wala naman ginagawa yung girl pero since pinagseselosan ko siya, I look at her profile all the time. Ang ganda din talaga niya kasi. Alam mo naman yung mga kababawan natin dati when we were younger, I would look at her photos and convince myself na though she’s really beautiful, meron pa din akong mga characteristics na mas angat sa kanya. You know like, um… Ako, magaling ako magvolleyball.
Ganun.
Babaw.
Anyway, so Facebook replaced Friendster. Hindi ko na siya ma-search. Moving forward, kinasal na kami ni Alvin and nagka-anak. Sometime into the marriage, I mentioned this to Alvin. I told him I have been looking for the Facebook page of that particular ex-girlfriend for years pero bigo ako. Loka loka daw ako. Ano daw ang makukuha ko dun?
ME: Friend mo ba siya sa Facebook?
ALVIN: Hindi noh.
ME; I-friend mo kasi para pwede ko siya makita.
ALVIN: Hindi na. Bakit mo ba gusto makita eh ang tagal tagal na nun.
ME: Apart from siya na ang pinaka-maganda sa mga ex mo, siya lang kasi Babe yung tumawag ka sa akin ng hating-gabi na umiiyak kasi nag-break kayo.
Alvin just rolled his eyes at me.
So nandun ako that time, hanap ng hanap lang sa Facebook ng ex ng asawa ko.
And then last year, I was browsing a friend’s friend’s FB photos tapos bigla ko nakita yung ex kasama nila! I finally found her in Facebook! She was tagged in that photo. Kaya pala I couldn’t find her kasi her profile photo was her kid ata and she changed her name. I opened her account. Naka-private.
Pero guess kung sino ang common friend namin?
Si Alvin Sombrero.
Patay sa akin ito.
Inantay ko nga maka-uwi si Sombrero.
ME: Akala ko ba hindi kayo friends ni _______?!
ALVIN: Hindi nga.
ME: Nakita ko! Friends kayo!!!
ALVIN: San?!
ME: Wag ka nang mag-maang maangan pa! Sa Facebook!
ALVIN: Ah baka dating dati pa yun. Hindi ko na maalala.
Fine.
So the next night, I got Alvin’s iPad (he never logs out of his social media accounts). I used his FB account to stalk the ex girlfriend.
Shet.
Lalo siyang gumanda.
Kamukha niya si Mama Mary.
I was browsing and browsing her page when I noticed something.
Teka. Alvin recently liked a photo that she posted. Mga yesterday lang.
Wait. Alvin liked another she posted the day before.
And the day before that.
And the day before, before that.
Alvin has been liking the photos and articles that she has been posting since months before!!!!!
Grrrrrrrr! Hindi niya pala alam na friends sila huh?!
I was so selos grabe! Galit na galit ako!
I confronted Alvin about it. Gusto ko ihagis sa kanya iPad niya. Nasasayangan lang ako kasi mahal. Pero hindot! Why lie?
As usual, since kasalanan niya, he shut his mouth and didn’t say anything.
Less talk, less mistake.
Nung nahimasmasan na ako, he explained na wala lang daw yun. He didn’t tell me kasi he knows pinagseselosan ko nga yung girl na yun. He said he can unfriend the girl naman daw. No problem.
And since uto uto ako, after a few hours, okay na. Ang weird lang talaga pero I understand why he didn’t tell me about it. But I told him that ayoko na ng ganun. I told him he didn’t need to unfriend the ex. Hindi naman ako ganun.
Baka sabihin pa nung ex, pinagseselosan ko siya.
Hahahahaha!
Alvin told me na para walang issue na lang, he won’t like the photos of that girl anymore.
So okay.
That was last year.
The other night, hinampas hampas ko ulo ni Alvin while we were in bed because I saw he liked again the photos of the ex!
Ano ba!
ALVIN: Babe naman! Lahat kasi ng lumalabas sa wall ko nila-like ko! Pati nga yung status nung classmate ko dati na hiwalay na sila ng asawa niya, na-like ko eh! Wala lang talaga yun!
I closed my eyes and took a deep breath.
ME: Osige fine. True love eh. Sige. Nakaka-intindi naman ako ng true love.
ALVIN: Uy hindi ha! Ikaw ang true love ko!
ME: Hindi. Hindi. No need to explain. True love. I get it.
ALVIN: Hindi nga!
ME: First love never dies. I get it.
ALVIN: Para tong sira! Ikaw first love ko eh!
ME: Hindi sige okay lang. Ganyan talaga pagfirst love.
And then I realized something!
Hinampas hampas ko ulit sa ulo!
ME: Teka lang! (pak!) Ako nga (pak!) hindi ka (pak!) nag (pak!) la-like (pak!) sa (pak!) photos (pak!) ko (pak!) eh! (pak!)
ALVIN: Ano ba Babe! Magigising si Anika.
Hmp!
I got my phone and went to YouTube. Pinatugtog ko nga ng malakas yung First Love Never Dies na song.
The next day, he liked all my social media posts.
Nakakaloka.
Selosa din ba kayo?
Ako?
Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha!
Yes.
