A few days have passed and yet, I still haven't decrypted the meaning of hamla ikat. No matter how many times I pester Ian, he still wouldn't budge so today, I'm gonna resort to pestering Kuya Xander instead.
I called his phone and waited impatiently as it rang. After a few tries, he picked up. His annoyed voice hissed from the other line.
"What the hell, Daze?! I'm busy inside my office! Tambak ang trabaho ko! Bakit ba tawag ka ng tawag?!" I rolled my eyes heavenwards when I heard his tone.
"Kuya, what is the meaning of hamla ikat?" I asked politely. He tends to hang up on me when I get too annoying or when I demand for something whenever he's busy. He's such a heartless brother, I know. Boohoo.
"Bakit ba ako ang tinatanong mo? Dun mo itanong sa boyfriend mong hilaw!" He grumbled.
"Does it mean 'I will miss you'?" I decided to push my luck.
"No! Look, Daze. I gotta go, I have no time for your silly questions. Kuya's busy." I knew that he was about to drop the call when I shouted.
"Kuya! Wait! Does it mean 'You're special to me'?"
"No." He was obviously teed off with me right now but I don't give a damn. I need to know what that means or I'll lose my sanity.
"How about 'i love you'? Is that what it means?" I asked hopefully.
"No! Let me work, Daze!" After saying that, he ended the call and when I tried calling him again, I only heard a busy tone. Dang. Too much for hopeless wishing. There I was thinking it meant something special. Maybe it doesn't mean anything. I just hate it that Ian speaks alien. I shook my head as I slumped back on bed.
My phone rang and my mood perked up when I saw that it was Ian. I quickly answered the phone and put it near my ear. "Goodmorning!"
"What is hamla ikat?"
"It's for me to know and for you to find out." He chuckled from the other line while I groaned. Someone really needs to tell me what that meant or I'll slit my own throat out of frustration.
"So, why did you call? Missed me?" I teased. I'm getting more comfortable with him each passing day. Who would've known that Ian has a good side, huh? He's acting like a real boyfriend and I'm enjoying every bit of this forced relationship.
"Yeah. Is it illegal to miss my girlfriend now?"
I pouted while twirling my hair in my fingers. I clutched a pillow to my chest before answering. "Well, no."
"Good."
I was about to compose a reply when I heard knocks on my door.
