CHET
After I talked to Atty Escudero, I went back to the office to do what I was tasked to do. Pretended that everything is okay. I have not texted Lee the whole day. I want her to do what she wants to do. I texted her and told her that I will be very busy these following days so I won't be able to see her. She said that she is also going to do some stuff that her Mom told her to do. And she told me that she will be going back to UK Wednesday, next week. We still have time to see each other I said. She told me that she will be joining the family of Franco for their annual reunion. I was thinking ilang years na ba kayo ni Franco?
When the elevator door opened, speak of the devil, si Franco. May kausap sa phone. Probably si Lee. I listened for a while and realized, siya nga. After he put the phone down, I called her.
"Hello?"
"Hello, sweetheart. Namiss lang kita."
"Huh? Akala ko ba busy ka?"
"I am inside the elevator, I just missed you at nagseselos ako."
"NAndiyan siya?"
"Yeah."
"Chet naman eh."
"Kasalanan mo. Your fault. Sabi ko I will stay as far from you muna, kaso pinagseselos mo naman ako eh."
"Hindi ah."
"Bakit ka pala bumubulong?"
"Sige bye. Talk to me later pag matino ka na."
"And she just put down the phone on me."
"Baka naiinis."
"Naiinis nga. Siya kasi eh."
"HAhahaha mga girls kasi ang galing mang inis."
"How about you pare. Can I call you pare?"
"oo naman. "
"Ikaw, yung girlfriend mo ba iniinis ka din?"
"Si Lee? Mabait yun eh. Sa sobrang bait, wala siyang pakialam sa akin. Di nga niya tinatanong kung kumain na ako. Minsan naiinis din ako kasi parang sinasadya naman yata niya ang pagiging cold sa akin."
"Matagal na ba kayo?"
"Hmmm 16 siya nun. Wala lang. Friends na no choice kundi kami na lang."
