Chapter 17

"Iha.."

I lifted my eyes at her. Nasa pintuan siya habang ako naman ay nasa aking kama, sa silid ng aking kwarto.

She smiled at me, holding her hand like she was nervous. Kabisado ko na siya, because it was her mannerism.

Tinikilop ko ang aking Ipad at umayos ng upo. She sitted at the edge of the bed.

"Ganito kasi 'yon.. hindi ba.. mahal mo parin naman ako 'diba?"

I frowned a bit. "Huh? Syempre naman po tita.."

She sighed heavily, parang ang tagal niya ng inipon iyon. "There's.. a man.." she began.

Nag karoon agad ako ng idea pero pinakinggan at hinintay ko parin siya mag salita.

"Okay fine. I have a boyfriend,"

Pigil ang tawa ko at naubo! Gosh! Para siyang teenager at mas mukhang kabado pa siya sa akin!

I wipe my lips. "And.. so?"

She rolled her eyes. "I want you to meet him  this coming evening.." she said.

Nag kibit balikat ako. "Okay" i simply said.

Tumaas ang kilay niya at naiirita na. Ayan na, sasabog na ang ate niyo amia.

"Is that all you can say?! Wala ka bang sasabihin na iba?!"

I laughed. "I'm going to support you! Gosh! Chill tita! Saka, it's your happiness! It's your life naman po, saka wala hindi naman 'yon pinag babawal. You can still fall inlove at your age. Don't mind me tita, I really really happy that you already have the love of your life.."

She sighed heavily, looking calm. Tumango siya at inabot ang aking kamay at kinulong sa kaniyang palad. "Salamat iha, thank you so much. Alam mo namang imposible dahil sa nakakaraan palagi kong sinasabi na hindi na ako iibig and then, he suddenly came up. Huwag kang mag alala, kilala ko naman siya at mapag kakatiwalaan ko.."

I smiled at her. I'm so happy for her. Ayoko ring tumanda siya ng mag isa, pero okay lang naman if she wants to. But hearing her happy that she has a lovelife now, masaya narin ako para sa kaniya.

The man was infront of me. I think he's 6ft. May balbas ng kaunti, and his haircut was clean. Mukhang yayamanin sa suot maging sa watch na suot.

"Edguardo.. she's aki, my niece. 'yung sinabi ko sa'yo? 'yung matagal ko nang inaalagaan at halos tinuring ko ng anak.." tita said.

I smiled at him. "Good evening po," magalang kong sabi.

He smiled at me too. "Good evening too iha. It was nice to meet you. Lagi kang naikwkwento sa akin ni maia,"

"I hope she's not telling lies and back stabbing me po," I chuckled, pag bibiro ko at nilingon si tita.

He laughed too, a bit. Glancing at tita. "Should I tell lie or not-"

"Edgar!" Tita said.

Natawa naman ako at tuluyan na kaming pumaruon sa hapag. He's just 47 at his age. Katulad rin ni tita naging abala sa business kaya hindi pa nag aasawa. He's really nice though and comfortable to speak on. Parang halos ka edad ko lang siya kung mag salita. After that night, tita just asked me how is he for me. And I told her that he's fine for me. And she just smiled, looking relief in my answer.

Miguel:
I miss you.

I bit my lower lip.

Aki:
Miss you too!
