My jaw dropped and I literally couldn't move my mouth to say a thing!
"Hipan mo na, nangangalay na ako Madame." nakangiting untag ni Wawa
Nilingon ko si Khalil at lalo lang akong inatake ng kakaibang sensasyon nang makitang titig na titig lang siya sa'kin gamit ang kumikislap na mga mata. He caressed my hand in a slow manner while he gestured the cake.
"Ay. Nagtitigan pa nga." sarkastikong utas ni Bench
That made me chuckle and tried to get my senses back. I closed my eyes and mentally uttered my wishes.
I wish for my family's safety.
I wish Mom and Dad will be in good terms.
I wish for the healing of all the sick.
I wish for the success of my friends.
I wish I could make my bananas even happier.
I wish Kala and Bala good health.
I wish.... I wish Khalil to be happy.
"Tagal, ah."
Inismiran ko si Wawa nang magmulat dahil sa paninira niya ng moment.
"Haba masyado ng wish." tumawa si Claui
Hinipan ko nalang ang kandila para wala na silang masabi. At maging ako, hindi ko alam kung ano ang sasabihin. I hugged all of them right after the wishing part and wholeheartedly muttered my gratitude.
"Bigay ko sa'yo gift ko. Naiwan ko sa kwarto eh." ani Claui
"Yeah, thanks!"
"Here, Han."
Inabutan ako ni Bench ng isang Hermes paperbag. Para namang nag-hugis puso ang mata ko.
"Omg, is this the scarf?!?"
Binitiwan ko ang kamay ni Khalil para tanggapin ang regalo ni Bench.
"Oo. That would look good on you!" Bench smiled
"Awww. Thank you Bench! Open ko 'to later."
"Ikaw Josh, wala kang gift?"
Napakamot sa ulo si Wawa. Ngumuso naman ako para sakyan ang panunuya ni Claui.
"Nakalimutan ko eh. Pag-uwi ko nalang ibibigay. Naiwan kase-"
"Edi kunin mo muna." simpleng sagot ni Bench
"Wow. Ganyan ka daling sabihin 'no?" sarkastikong tanong ni Wawa
"Oo. May chopper naman si Khalil. Manghiram ka muna."
"Pwede naman yun, diba, Khalil?"
Nilingon ko si Kai at hindi siya nakangiti o ano. Don't tell me sineseryoso niya sina Claui?!?
"Yeah. Why not? Pwedeng-pwede naman-"
"Love they're just kidding." awat ko
I saw how his forehead creased as he look down to see me. Hindi siya agad nakapag-react at mukhang natulala.
What?
Wait.
What did I call him again?
Love?!?
Saan nanggaling 'yun?
But we're 'married' so what's wrong, right? Right???
"So yeah..... why are you guys here?" I raised my brow, diverting the topic before it become more awkward
