Chapter 67

Britt

"Wow, ang ganda nemen." Puri ko kay Gwen. 

I'm here in the living room with Gwen and Kay. Today's weekend kaya we're chilling lang. Gwenevere said na magsasamba daw siya. Magluluto na lang kami ni Kay ng food para sakaniya mamaya because 3 PM pa siya uuwi. 

"Anube! Char, thanks. Una na 'ko babush!"

"Bye!"

"Gwen! Pasalubong ha!" We shouted, pero mukhang 'di niya na narinig dahil nakalabas na siya ng pinto.

Tumunganga muna 'ko sa wall dahil bore na bore na 'ko! 

"I'm so boreeeed---" I did not finish on what I was saying Kaydence cut my words.

"HALA!"

I immediately looked at her at napahawak na lang sa dibdib dahil nagulat ako sa sigaw niya.

"What is it?" 

"Delayed period ko!" She said at napalagay ang kamay sa bibig.

"WHAT?! Jontis k--"

"No!! Duh, good girl ako." Tumawa siya.

"I don't know? Irregular?"

"Ewan ko rin. Ay, by the way, I'll go shopping. Sama ka?" Yaya niya.

Sasama ba 'ko? I'm bored pero ayoko mag-mall, tinatamad ako. "No thanks. Bili mo na lang ako ng J.CO donuts, tig-iisa tayo. I'll pay it all."

"Weh??!! Omg Britt, ano nakain mo?" Nilabas ko ang wallet ko at binigyan siya ng cash. "Hala! Basta wag na magbabago isip mo. Thanks! Aalis na ko baka bawiin mo pa 'yung pera." Sambit niya na parang nagra-rap. 

I was about to stand up nang biglang mag ring ang phone ko, I checked it out and found out na si Shawn ang tumatawag. 

"Hello!!" Energetic 'kong sabi. 

"Hello babe, goodmorning. Are you busy?" He said with a sleepy voice. 

Gosh, the butterflies in my stomach. I touched my cheeks and felt like it's burning. Am I blushing?! Oh no. 

"No, why? Magd-date tayo?" Natatawa kong sabi. 

He chuckled, "Hmm.. Yup, parang ganon na nga. Where are you?" 

"I'm here in our condo."

"Alright, I'll pick you up later. See you, I love you."

"Okay! Can't wait to see you. I love you!" I ended the call at nilapag ang phone sa sofa. 

Tumayo ako at nag talon-talon. "AHHHHHWJWJIW!! Ay-- I should get ready." Tumakbo ako sa kwarto ko at nag hanap ng masusuot. 

I chose the V-neck bubble sleeve strawberry ruffled top with a white pleated skirt and a black glossy mary jane platform with a white ruffled socks. Nilabas ko rin ang necklace na binigay niya sa 'kin last Christmas. Nilagay ko ang mga susuotin ko sa vanity table at naligo na. After that, I wore my outfit and did my skincare after putting some natural looking makeup. 

Tinanggal ko muna lahat ng kuryenteng nakasaksak, I wrote a note para kay Kay and Gwen kung sakaling 'di ako makauwi ng maaga, I put it on the table. I locked the door at bumaba na papuntang parking lot. 

Nakita ko siyang nakatayo sa gilid ng kotse niya habang nagpapaikot ng susi at nagc-cellphone. 

"Shawn!!!" I shouted and waved at him. He immediately looked at me, I ran towards him and hugged him tightly. He kissed my forehead and put his arms around my shoulder. "Kanina ka pa?" I asked.
