On friends who don't look back.

Text exchange a few days ago with a friend about a common friend that we have:
Hogi: Nako, si _____, ayaw na nya maalala yung panahon na yun, hahaha.
Friend: Actually, si ____ din. Hahaha.
Hogi:
Haha, maraming ngang ganun sa kanila. Ang funny pa, kung sino pa sa
kanila yung ganun, sila pa yung mga hindi talaga directly involved sa
nangyari back then.
Honestly, I didn't get it. Kung sino pa ang
hindi involved sa situation, sila pa yung mga tumalikod dun sa past na
yun at ayaw nang maalala. Yung tipong pag tinanong kung paano kami
magkakilala, ayaw aminin dahil parang lumalabas na nakakahiya. Mga
friends, hindi dapat ikahiya ang mga yan, dahil it doesn't make you
less of a person. It's part of what made you who you are today, so
bakit mo kakalimutan, diba? Bakit ba kayo masyadong nagpapaapekto nung
time na yun? OK, sige, I understand that you were sympathizing with the
ones directly involved, but wag naman masyadong magpaapekto.
It's
weird how I just pondered over those friends of mine who were in that
circle. I still love them to bits, we still talk and even try to make
the effort to stay in touch, but I just don't get why they do this.
Wala lang, bigla lang ako napaisip nung magkatext kami ng isang friend na yan.
