CHAPTER 26

CHAPTER 26

Abreu and I did not talk for the whole ride. It was a very awkward moment. It wasn't really a long ride but it feels like it. Hindi rin naman naging tahimik kasi may music naman. She'll sing along quietly as she looks outside the window or in-front. We didn't talked even until I parked the car when we arrived at our house.

"This is... The new house? Different from the one you took me before?" She asked, looking outside.

I smiled and nodded. She finally spoke.

Should I be thankful that she didn't saw like a disgusting porno? That one that I watched was just a... cool sex. It's more on a love making than those hard-disgusting ones on a porn site.

"Let's go?" I asked and she nodded.

"Nandiyan rin ba 'yung papa mo?"

I pursed my lips. "I think so..." I replied before adding, "It will be fine. Don't be nervous."

"I'm not nervous. I just wanna be prepared," she said as she rolled her eyes before she took the paper bag at the backseat where the carbonara is.

I smiled. When she looked over my direction, I quickly caught her lips. She held my cheeks before she pulled me away. I pouted and she chuckled. She tapped my cheeks. "Nasa i-isang lugar tayo kung nasaan 'yung parents mo..."

I rolled my eyes. "They caught my brother and Zoe kissing!"

Her eyes widen. "Talaga?!"

I laughed and shook my head. "Joke," I said before I unbuckled the seatbelt. Sinamaan niya lang ako ng tingin bago kami sabay na lumabas.

I feel so excited that she'll meet my dad today. I also felt excited when she met mom that night. But it makes me feel nervous when I think that I'll meet her parents sooner.

Nang makapasok na kami sa loob ay ang tahimik. Nag-tanong ako doon sa mga katulong at ang sabi nila ay nasa garden raw.

"Nasa likod rin pala mga pinsan mo," aniya bago kinuha 'yung paper bag na inaabot sa kaniya ni Abreu. Nginitian niya sa Abreu bago muling tumingin sa akin. "Kasama fiancé ni Dimitri pati si Julian."

"Huh?" Tanong ko. Pero masiyado ata 'yong mahina at naka-alis na siya.

Hindi ko alam kung kailan kaming huling nag-kita o nakapag-usap ni Julian. Ang alam ko lang ay parang naputol lahat ng koneksyon namin pagkatapos nung party nung new year.

"So... Julian's here?" Napalingon ako nang itanong 'yon ni Abreu. She gave me a smile. "Are you guys... Okay? I mean, we're good..."

I pursed my lips and shook my head. "I don't thing so... Parang na-cut ties na kami..."

Umawang 'yung labi niya at dahan-dahang tumango.

Umiling kaagad ako. "Huwag mo sanang isipin na dahil sa 'yo..."

She let out a small laugh. "I don't know. But I'm part of the reasons," she said and I quickly shook my head. She grimaced and said, "I am... But you guys can still fix it. Communication fixes everything."

Napangiwi ako. "Sometimes communication ends things."

She shrugged. "Ending is also fixing."

Are we having a life lesson right now?

She smiled at me. "But it doesn't really have to be now, you know? Kung ready ka na, edi go ahead... You guys really had a good friendship. Imagine supporting him for the girl he likes? Like..." she said and jokingly rolled her eyes. "...that's rare and sweet."
