JAMAICA

It's been 2 weeks simula ng lumipat ako sa dorm, everything is fine. Mas lalo pa kaming naging malapit nina Kim at Amarah. I think I found my best friends. 

About Deam catcher? Well, wala parin balita sa kaniya, Pinuntahan ko ang address sa file niya pero wala naman daw nakatira doon na writer. Mas lalo naging mahirap ang trabaho ko dahil ni pangalan niya walang nakalagay sa file. Tinadtad ko na ng text at emails pero wala parin, but he's still submitting his story, dinadaan niya sa email ng company not directly to me. Kahit gamitin ko pa ang account ng company para i email siya wala parin talaga. Give up na ba? 

Anyways kakatapos ko lang mag edit ng story niya pero meron na naman siyang bagong release, ang sipag naman niya magsulat. The new story entitled "Lady from Darkest place", a story of the unexpected encounter of the protagonist into a lady outside the bar, wait-

The story seems so familiar.

'I drove her home to make her safe, but in fact, I still want to fantasize about her pretty face and beautiful body, but she thinks that I am just a mere motorcycle rider'

Am I assuming? But it's accurate and real. Maybe coincidence? No. I need to see him.

----------

After our work, Kim, Amarah, and I decided to hang out, watch a movie, have fun on a PlayStation, and more. 

After that, we decided to have dinner at a restaurant.

"Tomorrow is a holiday, anong balak niyo?" Kim.

"Spent time with my Family" Amarah.

"Matulog buong araw" Yeah that's me. Wala naman talaga akong gagawin.

"You know what Jam, Lumandi ka na para di ka mag isa sa buhay" Kim.

"Aba pasmado bunganga mo Kim ah, bakit ikaw may jowa ka na ba?"

"Yes, actually yayain kita sumama bukas ng gabi, bar tayo ipapakilala ko siya sayo, no more excuses matulog ka ng buong umaga hanggang hapon" Kim

"I'll go too" Amarah.

"Hindi kita inaaya" Kim.

"Okay enough sasama ako kapag isasama natin si Amarah"

"Yey!" Amarah.

We just looked at her means shut up. Buti at dumating narin sa wakas yung food namin at nang tumigil na itong dalawa.

Morning comes, I mean pagabi na pala, natulog ako buong araw eh. Pagkagising ko kumain muna ako dahil gutom na gutom na gutom na ko. Pagkabukas ko ng cellphone ko nagulat akong ng makita ang 28 missed calls ni Tita Emily kaya tinawagan ko siya pabalik.

'Hello'

'Hello tita Sorry po tulog ako buong araw'

'It's okay Jam, I just want to console you about the house, napag alaman kase ng mga tito mo na may work ka na at hindi ka na nakatira sa bahay, so they decided to sell the house and lot soon.' 

Nanlumo ako sa narinig ko. It can't be, hindi nila pweding ibenta ang bahay.

'Hello Jam, are you listening?'

'Ahm- Y-yes tita'

'I know you disagree, even me, ayoko rin na ibenta ang bahay, I'll talk to your Tito Rico again'

'Please Tita tell him not to sell the house please'

Call ended.

Tita Emily is the youngest among my dad's siblings and Tito Rico is the Oldest. Tito Rico lives here in the Philippines pero hindi kami nagkikita simula ng umalis sila tita Emily papuntang America.

Naiiyak ako, ayokong mawala ang ala-ala ng mga taong mahal ko, ang bahay na iyon nalang ang iniwan nila sakin. Hindi ko kayang makita na pagmamay-ari yun ng iba.

*knock knock*

Pumasok si Amarah sa room ko.

"Sorry I didn't mean to hear that" Amarah.

"It's okay"

"You okay?" Ramdam ko sa boses niya ang pag-alala.

"I'm fine, nag promise tayo kay Kim na pupuntahan natin siya"

" pwede dumaan muna tayo ng department store, I need to buy something😅" Amarah.

" Yes sure"

So ayun pumunta muna kami ng department store, and I just know na contact lense lang naman pala ang bibilhin niya.

"Hey parang inamoy mo na lahat ng perfume jan ah, may hinahanap ka?" Amarah.

"Ah wala,  Nag hahanap ng ako ng maganda sa pang amoy ko pero wala akong nagustuhan ni isa"

Lies. Gusto mo lang malaman kung anong perfume ang gamit ni angkas rider eh haha. In fairness, that scent is really unfamiliar, hindi ko pa naamoy sa iba. Mr. Rider is maybe a picky kind of guy.

-------

I didn't expect na ang bar na pinuntahan namin ay ang bar na malapit sa bahay, at kung saan kami unang nagkita ni Mr. Rider.

Pagkapasok namin  ni Amarah ay natanaw namin si Kim na mag isa sa kaniyang table kaya agad namin siyang pinuntahan.

"Hey girl, where's your boyfriend?" Amarah.

" Evan is in the restroom, babalik rin siya kaagad" Kim.

" Evan huh?" I said teasingly. I can see the excitement in Kim's eyes.

"Naku Kim tigil tigilan mo ko bakit ngayon mo lang naisipan ipakilala ha?" Amarah.

"He's here!" Kim. 

Evan is undeniably handsome, habang papalapit siya sa table namin ay nakikita o kung ano siya ka gwapo, and that body? Ugh! My heart suddenly beat so fast and I don't even why. Shit! Girl she's your friend's boyfriend. Kalma!

Hindi ko  namalayan na nasa harapan ko na pala siya. Wait-

that smell.....

"Hey babe, meet my friends Amarah and Jam" Kim.

"Hello, ladies nice to meet you!" Evan.

Binggo! The body? the scent? and voice? It's really him. Mr. Rider. Should I tell them? No.

Should I ask him if he is really dream catcher? No. Not now Jam.  Moment to ni Kim wag ka epal. Now I'm wondering kung pano sila naging mag jowa, I mean he's too serious and Kim? She's so loud and witty. 

He offers his hand for a handshake so I accepted it, even his hands feels so nice. 

We enjoy the rest of the night. Drinking and enjoying the beat of music and disco lights that can make you feel tipsy.  I feel so tipsy. 

But looks are more important even when I'm drunk kaya hinanap ko ang restroom ng bar, kahit hindi na straight ang paglalakad ko, I still manage to find the restroom. No one is inside, Good!. So I fixed my makeup and hair even though I can't clearly see it, damn!, nahihilo ako, ng biglang may dumating na lalaki, and then I realized-

Shit! there is a male cubicle. It means this is men's restroom. 

This guy is sexy, I want to hold his abs. God! Why there are so many hot guys here, kung alam ko lang sana dati pa edi sana gabi-gabi ako pumupunta dito.

Bigla akong nilapitan ng lalaki, I couldn't clearly see his face, but his buttons are open in the upper area and I can literally see his bare chest. Gaga, ang chest nakikita pero ang mukha hindi?

I can't help myself anymore. I touched his body, then I suddenly remember the hardness of Mr. Rider's abs. Parehong pareho, so I smelled him. Shit again!

Aatras na ako ng bigla niyang hinawakan ang mag kamay ko, then- I don't know what happen I just suddenly realized that were kissing-     passionately.

And yeah it's him! Evan, Kim's boyfriend, and Mr. Rider.
