Shit. Shit. Shit.
"Ma'am, kumukulo na po 'yong tubig."
Is that how he played it? Damn.
"Ma'am-
"What?!" Inis niyang hinarap ang babae.
"K-kasi po 'yung pinapakuluan niyo."
Kumiling naman ang kaniyang ulo roon at nanlaki ang mga mata niyang makita na kulong-kulo na nga ito. She ran towards there and accidentally held the lid without any gloves on her hand.
"Ouch!"
Sa pangalawang pagkakataon napaso na naman siya. Hindi na niya iyon ininda, mabilis niyang pinatay ang stove at bumuntong-hininga nang masilayang muntik pang matuyuan ng tubig ang pinapalambot niyang karne.
"Damn it." She mumbled.
"Ma'am, iyong paso niyo po."
"No, it's okay. Ako na ang bahala rito. Just resume this and you can slice the meat now. Aalis lang ako saglit."
"Okay po, ma'am."
Tinanggal niya ang kaniyang apron saka tumungo sa locker area nila. Naupo agad siya nang makakita ng silya roon. She rubbed her hands on her face while she closes her eyes.
"You can't do this to me." bulong niya sa sarili
I need to do something.
She took her phone out of her small cabinet and dialled her friend's phone number. Masaya siyang agad namang sumagot si Roxanne.
"Rox, I need help."
["What? Ano'ng nangyari sa'yo? Okay ka lang ba?"]
"I don't know?"
["You don't know?-wait, lalabas at iinom lang ako."]
Sa nangyari kaninang umaga hindi na niya alam kung ano ang isusunod niya sa mga planong nakalaan upang akitin ang lalaki. She's being attracted to the man with his small gestures. Sanay naman siya sa mga gano'n pero kapag galing talaga sa lalaki'y para siyang baguhan sa larangang iyon.
["Go on."]
"We kissed." She directly stated
["Kiss, tsk! What's new? It's nor- wait! You kissed? When? Where? How?!-Omg! You had sex last night?"]
She rolled her eyes. "Stupid, no! I'm not ready, yet."
["Ready my ass, so bakit nga? Paano? I mean, nasundan iyong last kiss ninyo noon sa bangka?"
Cyra bit her lowerlip and nodded. "Yeah, gano'n na nga."
["What the fuck?! Totoo? Sino'ng nag-initiate? I think kailangan kong bumalik diyan."]
"I was watching the sunrise a while ago and it happened there."
