CHAPTER 21
Never know.
"Ano? Sinigawan ka ng bruhang 'yon? Tapos tinawag ka pang basura? Ano pa?!" Si Wei na overacting kung makareact.
"Hays. Wag na nating pag-usapan 'yon Wei." Matamlay kong sabi at bumalik sa paghiga sabay pagtakip ng kumot sa mukha. Niyug-yog naman ako ni Wei.
"Ano ba 'yan, Ziya! Kala ko naman romantic 'yong dinner niyo ni Eros. Masasabunutan ko 'yang kumag na 'yan." Humiga na rin si Wei,
Napatawa nalang ako.
"Pero ang taray ni Eros ha, hindi lang gwapo, may paninindigan pa!" Proud na sabi ni Wei.
Hindi pa rin ako nagsalita. Nakakairita tsaka nakakahiyang isipin 'yong nangyari kagabi.
Yesterday was a great slush tiring day. I didn't expect to have the worst in that house. Siguro ganoon lang talaga makapagreact kung parents ka, they have to think what's best for their children. Maybe Madam Veronica think that Lineth must be great when they're being with Eros than me. Sino ba namang tatanggap sa akin? An underrated, rookie journalist, tatanga-tangang babae, plus your parents' background. Hays.
But I feel bad for Eros. Nasagot niya ang ina-inahan niya.
"Sorry, Ziya." Si Eris. Nakasakay na kami ngayon sa Jaguar ni Eros. Eros is silently driving, I saw he's holding a grip on the steering wheel.
"Okay lang 'yon." I glanced at Eris then showed her my sincere smile.
"Anong okay? I saw you shed tears! Hindi 'yon okay!" Lumapit si Eris mula sa backseat.
"Na shock lang siguro. Don't worry, Eris. Sanay na ako."
I heard Eros sighed, as well as Eris. Nakakaguilty, they have to go through with this situation. Like being against with their parent's will.
"Let's eat first." Eros firmly said.
Nawalan narin ako ng ganang kumain, pero I have to cover my weak self. I have to show to them that I'm not affected with what happened earlier.
"Sorry ha! Pambansang third wheel na ako!" Eris said while putting some powder on her face. Si Eros na ang nag-order ng pagkain sa counter.
"Hindi naman kami nagdate." Wala sa sarili kong sabi.
"Sorry talaga, Ziya. Don't you ever think of breaking up with Eros, okay? Mas lala 'yan kapag nabroken hearted." Si Eris.
Napatawa na lang ako. Maybe my other self would say ang babaw naman ng dahilan kung maghihiwalay kami dahil sa parents nila, pero what if the world is really against with us? We have no choice but to accept the fact that we're not meant to be.
