Oh my G! Thanks heavens you're safe! I knew it! Masamang damo ka! Okay, whore. I'll be waiting.
Napailing nalang ako saming dalawa ni Ivy. Never kaming naging sweet, but I'm sure as hell we'll be bestfriends for life. I started the car and drove my way home.
Nabaling ang tingin ko sa butterfly na lumilipad paikot sa jar. Gabriel gave it to me before the both of us went home. I saw him flew a balloon by the time I got inside the car. Nakakatuwa lang isipin na, one by one, may natatapos kami sa bucket list ko. Even without Brent.
The moment he caught me when I almost fell flashed on my mind again. Inuntog ko ang forehead ko sa manibela at binilisan ng kaunti ang pagdadrive para makauwi na at makapahinga. Para makatulog na at mawala ang mga iniisip. Remembering the pace of his heartbeat makes me feel... sentimental. Cut it out, Iris. You're moving on already. You're halfway there.
Great. Im talking to myself.
Nakarating na ko sa unit ko at nadatnan si Ivy sa living roomko at kumakain ng cereal. Kahit kailan talaga.
"Pumunta ka ba dito para hintayin ako o para makikain lang?" I slumped in my couch and tie my hair in a messy bun. Kinuha ko yung cereal box at kumain with my bare hands. I drank directly from the milk box and wipe the milk off my lips. And burped. As loud as I can.
Bigla akong binatukan ni Ivy, "Umayos ka nga ng kilos! What if makita ka ng fans mo at ng handlers mo na ganyan ka? You're so gross!
"KUNG malalaman nila." I smirked then snatched the cereal box from her.
She came closer to me and sniffed my hair. "You smelled of- eeek - plants. And oh, what's this? " kinuha niya yung jar na may butterfly, "Beautiful."
