I've never felt the need to justify myself or my actions before. I always thought that either my decisions are too personal to be understood by others or comprehension escapes my interpreter because they're just plain stupid. Nonetheless, this past few weeks I have felt the need to explain my side on an issue that was supposed to be anything and everything but alive. See, a "friend" has been spreading rumors and accusations about me that are entirely baseless and often borders on the absurd. He's been going around behind my back telling me that I can not be trusted and that I am a "snake." I am glad that most of my friends dont believe him, but what pains me is that some of my other mates treat me cold and act indifferent when we are together. This whole drama was unfolding for more than two years now (behind my back) and I was only made aware of this a couple of months ago.

This issue traces its roots back from to our senior year in high school and doesn't even include my "friend" who is spreading rumors about me. How fuck up is that? Because of his ignorance and matrona-like talents of mouth blabbing I am seeing some of my closest and oldest friends turn their back on me and walk away -and when I ask them why, they give me some cooked up story stuff with bullcrap and cow dung. I can't for the life of me explain why people would do this kind of treachery to me. Especially if that someone -despite his flaws -was accepted into our house with brotherly affection and respect. You came into my house when you are in need, you came into my house when you are hungry, thirsty and wanting and I've never turned you down. My doors were always open for you because you are my friend and I value friendship above many others. But, despite this, you burned down my house and my trust. Just like what you did my Kakai, Jorge, Omar, Chao and all of the others that you have betrayed and coldly stabbed in the back.

Who do you think is the snake now?
