02 - Beseech

Chastity's POV:

"I swear that woman definitely looks familiar. Hindi ko lang talaga maalala kung sa'n ko siya nakita."

"E baka naman kasi 'di mo talaga nakita or kilala? Feeler ka lang."

"Weh epal, 'di naman kasali. Palibhasa kasi inggit saka I am definitely sure na nakita ko na 'yong babae. I just can't point out saan ko siya nakita."

"Super curious mo naman kasi girl do'n sa babae at no'ng nakaraan mo pa kinukwento, crush mo ba?"

"Bawal bang curious lang, Sipayb? Crush agad?" Kim retorted, rolling her eyes.

"Oh eh ba't galit?"

"Napakamalisyoso kasi ng utak mo."

"Paulit-ulit ka kasi—"

"Okay, you two stop it already." I quickly pacify them. "Don't tell me you'll have an argument over those women? That's insane."

I continued, trying to stop the flaming heat reigning over them. Good thing, they both listened and just turn their backs on each other. I then shook my head at that scenario. They could be really childish sometimes.

Being certain that they won't attack each other again, I quickly diverted my attention to my errands. There I continue sanitizing the dining tables, ensuring their final touch before transferring to the other ones.

Fixing some strands of my hair upon starting again, I tied it neatly together in a pony. Trying to still look pleasant though it's almost quarter to two in the morning and there are only a few customers left.

"Kainis, tinawag pa akong malisyoso e siya nga 'tong puro daldal. Nalimutan yatang nasa trabaho siya."

Sipayb ranted in a whisper, sinaway ko naman ito gamit ang mga mata ko para tigilan niya na. Mamaya kasi ay marinig pa siya ni Kim. Ayaw ko nang awatin pa silang dalawa.

Kahit naiintindihan ko naman kung ano ang pinanggagalingan nito and not that I am taking on his side, but Kim annoyingly keeps on mentioning that group of women nonstop—specifically the woman she kept on saying she was familiar with for several days... literally.

And the same goes for me, I just had it enough for Kim now seems obsessed. Perhaps, a late bloomer who's starting to have a crush on women.

"Narinig ko 'yon." Sipayb and I quickly turn our gazes on Kim which wearing now a completely dark aura as she spoke and that made me sigh.

"Really? Then maybe you should hear this one as well that maybe I do have a malicious mind, but girl this brain made me effin' enter Greenwoods—"

Sipayb never had a chance to finish his sentence when Kim spoke first before I even do too and had a quick change of mood.

"Saglit! Tingin ko alam ko na kung saan ko nakita 'yong babaeng may laptop!" She rhapsodized almost squealing which caused Sipayb and me to exchange gazes weirdly.

"Hindi ka pa rin talaga tapos ano?" Sipayb irritatingly responded, almost losing his temper to Kim.

"Not now that I finally remember where I saw the woman," matapang na sagot naman ng isa.

"Then where?" I intruded just to make them stop. Doon nakatanggap naman ako mula rito ng nagtatakang tingin and for some reason, she also looks puzzled?
