A Fight over a CLICHÉ
since when did the words " i love you" become a cliche?
it was just lately that i got my heart pretty damn broken.. It was because of saying the words I have valued so much to "him." i was hoping for him to reply the same words but instead I heard a heartbreaking response. "Anu ba yan? Nagiging cliche na yan sa kakasabi mo nyan.. araw araw na lang." It was really hard for me to try and hide the hurt so instead i sat on the floor and covered my face, I didnt notice that tears were already filling my eyes..
He suddenly approached me since we already have to go and eat.. I saw tears and asked me what those tears are for.. I never wanted him to know that i cried because of him.. So once again, i made an excuse and a lame one, i could say (i told him that it was just because i was just hungry). So we went to the cafeteria, for the both of us to buy some snacks. I had an excuse that i need to go the CR and i somehow took so much time that he already was done buying. So i didnt buy food and made another excuse that i was no longer hungry. Still, i hid the hurt and tried to continue my so called happy day.
So i left school for our research project. He was angry with me for letting him wait for 2 hours long.. when he was suppose to go home earlier.. either ways he left when it was only 5 minutes for me to arrive. The next day arrived with the both of us ignoring each other.. i left school for research without holding any conversation with him.. So there, the day went on still with the both of us ignoring each other.. We only begun to converse when he approached me.. however, I was in no mood to have another whatever.. so we just talked about nothing in particular and we then made bati.
I still had no guts to tell him about the cliché but it really was bothering me…
So yesterday night, I told him through text since I know I would break down to tears if I tell it in person… I asked him if it was for real and he told me it was… It was more difficult than ever.. “Lahat ng bagay na wawalang halaga pag sobrang nagagamit.” That was his reply… I asked him if I already am cliché for him for I always was there for him.. He told me I was not.. but I was still bothered.. I let out a few harsh words that began our fight… It was sad, having a fight over a cliché.. It ended with me mistaking what he said. He just meant that I could say that I love him even with out those silly words.
