Steal My Girl

ANDREA

"we are here babe, ok ka lang ba?" tanong saakin ni PJ

I just nodded, lumabas si PJ sa kotse at tsaka binuksan yung pintuan ng sasakyan para makababa na ako

natulala ako saglit dahil sa sinend na news article ng aking kaibigan

Flashback (earlier)

Jasmine message me about a news article

"is this your "Simon"?" she messaged attaching a news article on it.

I replied yes and opened the article

"Single no more, Simon Marcos is officially engaged to his childhood sweetheart"

I read the article in shock and that's how my morning went

End of flashback

Hindi ko alam na yun parin pala ang iniisip ko hanggang sa nakarating kami ni PJ sa restaurant. Dito parin ako sa Baguio nakatira at nagtatrabaho, nakilala ko si PJ dito—

"What do you want to eat babe?" PJ asked me interrupting my thoughts

"I want the paella marinera" I smiled, andito kami ngayon sa Mario's para maglunch then may pupuntahan kami after.

PJ ordered our food and then we just talked, he's such a dream. I met him a year ago.

Flashback

It was rainy afternoon and I was waiting for the red light para makacross na ako at makapunta sa pinagparkingan ko ng aking kotse, habang naghihintay ako na makacross sa street ay may kumalabit saakin.

"Excuse me" a male stranger caught my attention

Basang basa siya dahil sa ulan

"yes?" medyo irita kong sabi

Chinito, matangkad at gwapo yung lalaki

"I just got robbed and I was just roaming around Baguio by foot and I don't know where my family is currently staying" halos pa-iyak niyang sabi

Mukhang first time niyang mahold up, he looks so familiar. Lumipat kami sa may bubong para di na siya ganun mabasa pa.

"I'm PJ Laude by the way" he said while asking for a shake hands, medyo nanginginig na siya sa lamig

Familiar yung apelyido niya

"Andrea" I said back as I shake his hands

"can you help me?" pagmamakaawa niya

I nodded

"thank you so much, please message my mom on Instagram or Facebook" he pleaded

"what's your mom's name?" I curiously asked

"Small Laude" sabi niya

I knew it, kaya pala siya mukhang familiar kasi napanood ko na mga vlogs ng mommy niya

"you're small laude's eldest, right?" I asked

"yes" he smiled

I immediately grab my phone and message his mom, we waited for her mom's reply pero wala parin kaming natanggap na message.

"while waiting for your mom's reply, punta muna tayo sa bahay namin mukhang kailangan mong magpatuyo para di ka magkasakit at kapag nagreply na ang mommy mo, ihahatid nalang kita" I offered, may dala rin kasi akong groceries at kailangan ko ng iuwi ito
