FALSE CONCLUSIONS
I have no idea as to what I really feel today. Something shallow came up and I don’t have a clue about the proper response to such circumstance.
It really hurts to know that someone you thought is your friend would even think of accusing you of something that you’ve never done.
That person thought I said negative things about her which resulted to the change in her relationship with other people. I have never done such a thing. She confronted me with so much hatred and distrust that she even called me a “backstabber” and gossiper.
What the heck! Why should I do that? What benefit would I receive in doing such thing? She should’ve considered those things first before confronting me!
But, fortunately, her behavior got worse when I burst out my emotions to a close friend of mine, and she even implied that I’m pathetic. She said those things right in front of other workmates. It’s a good thing that I kept my composure, and acted as if nothing happened, or that I never heard anything. She said she is not like others who cry in front of other people, and use their sympathy just to earn a treat at STARBUCKS?! What the…?! That’s a really big insult for me, being someone who earns just enough money to buy something there. I can buy my own Vanilla Frappe or watchamacallit.
And besides, why do I need to pretend in front of other people just to be taken there? They would be willing to go with me there even without any request or implying from me! BEING TREATED TO STARBUCKS IS A VERY SHALLOW THING!
Well, at least, someone advised me to just ignore that person or whatever she has to say. I think that’s a good advice, and maybe, it would be better if I just kept quiet. God knows who’s telling the truth and who’s innocent. And of course, there’s always karma. I’m not afraid to face that karma, if there’s such a thing to come to me because of her allegation.
I just hope that she will eventually realize her mistake. That would be enough. But then, even if she apologizes to me, it would be too late for all the damage that she’d done to me. She may not lose much, but still, she lost me as a friend. And finally, a piece of advice to you guys- before even thinking of accusing someone, take time to verify or confirm what you have in mind with the people involved in your problem before you jump into FALSE CONCLUSIONS.
THE GAME IS OVER (i hope)...
here i am, just doing some thinking... realizing that it's so good to know who we really are, and regaining our self-respect, especially after a close call with this certain emotion that we never planned or intended to feel...
and then, i told myself, masuwerte pa pala rin pala ako (i'm still lucky..), 'cuz i still managed to control myself, and never allowed myself to look like a fool, though i almost did... for that person, thanks for the kilig moments that you gave me, even for just a short time... at least, you let me know, marunong pa pala akong kiligin...
however, that's not who i am... the mushy part of me should be re- hibernating... it's time to bring back the man that i'm supposed to be... people may call me bitter or sourgraping, but let them think whatever they want to think - as long as i feel assured about myself, i don't give a damn about them...
finally, the game's over... the show's finished...
time to go back to my old role...
the script's prepared, and rehearsal's not needed anymore...
