How Would You Feel

"Uy, okay ka lang, girl?" Bianca asked Dev kasi tulala siya. "Huy!"

"A-ano?" Dev asked.

"You're obviously not okay. What's your problem?" Bianca asked.

"H-ha? Wala. Okay nga lang ako." Dev answered.

Bigla namang nag-ring ang phone ni Dev kasi tumatawag si Tres sa kanya.

"Oh, what's up?" She said.

"Can we meet today? May mga napanood kasi ako na gumawa nung kagaya ng gusto nating gawin sa foster. Papakita ko lang sayo para magaya natin." Tres said with a little chuckle. "Or kung busy ka, pwede namang i-send ko na lang sayo."

"Hindi. Kita na lang tayo. Pero mamaya na. Sa condo na lang." Dev said.

"Okidoks! See you later! Ingat ka." Tres said and dropped the call.

"Si daddy Tres?" Bianca asked.

"Can you stop calling her that?" Dev said with her forehead creased.

"Luh, bakit?" Bianca said.

"It just don't sound right. He's not even your boyfriend." Dev said.

"Pagkatapos mo akong ibugaw sa kanya, gaganyan-ganyan ka?" Sabi ni Bianca which caused Dev to crease her forehead. "Kinuwento niya sakin the last time he was here."

"Daldal talaga ng lalaking yun." Dev whispered. "I was just kidding, okay? Binibiro ko lang siya nun."

"Sus. Baka naman sarili mo talaga gusto mong ibugaw sa kanya?" Bianca jokingly said.

"Gaga, hindi ah." Dev said.

"Oh, yun na yun? Say the line, Dra. Lazaro!" Bianca laughed.

"Line???" Dev said.

"That, 'may boyfriend ako, okay' line? Asan na?" Bianca said.

Dev sighed, "Biancs, pag ba nakita mo yung boyfriend mo na may kasamang ibang babae sa restaurant, does that mean na he's cheating on you?" She asked.

Bianca creased her forhead, "Wala naman akong boyfriend, pero wait, did you see Vaughnn with someone?" She asked back.

Dev bit her lower lip and slowly nodded her head.

"Holy--kelan?!" Bianca said.

"L-last week. But, I don't wanna think na he's cheating kasi never ko naman siya tinanong about it. What if kaibigan niya lang pala yun?" Dev said.

"Kilala mo ba yung babae?" Bianca asked and Dev nodded her head. "Oh, kilala mo pala eh. You would know the tendecies of that slut!"

"Biancs!" Saway ni Dev sa kanya.

"What? Anong gusto mong itawag sa kanya? Beshie?!" Bianca said.

"Kasi, I wanna make sure first." Dev answered. "Tsaka, baka isipin niya nagchi-cheat din ako sa kanya."

"Ang kapal naman ng mukha niya to think that way eh siya nga 'tong may babae!" Bianca said.

"Biancs, I was with Tres when I saw Vaughnn." Dev said. "We had dinner together.."

"And? So what if you had dinner with him? We all know that you and Tres have some serious business with each other. You're working on an adoption and Vaughnn shouldn't be jealous of him." Sabi ni Bianca. "Unless, threatened talaga siya dun sa tao. Well, kahit ako naman, kakabahan kung si Tres yung kalaban ko."
