Chapter 6
Saktong pagbukas ni Tim sa pintoan ng office niya ay may narinig kaming nagsalita. "Seriously, dude? Halos mag-iisang oras na akong—oh, you're with your girl."
"I am not his--"
Timothy cutted my words, again.
"What are you doing here, Peralta?" Tim asked.
Hindi siya pinansin nong lalaking tinawag niyang Peralta. Instead, lumapit ito sa'min at nilahad ang kamay niya sa'kin.
"Nice to meet you, Katrina. I am Yael Peralta, a handsome friend of your man." Nakangiting bati nito.
I raised my brows on what he said before shaking his hand.
"How did you know my name?" I asked, not minding some of his words.
Ngayon lang kami nagkita kaya paano naman ako nito nakilala?
Tumawa ito ng bahagya at tinaponan ng saglit na tingin si Tim. "How can I not know you? Palagi kitang nakikita sa office--"
"Say something and you'll be dead, Peralta." Hindi natuloy sa pagsasalita si Yael nang pinutol 'yun ni Tim.
Tumawa ito at tinaas ang dalawang kamay niya na parang sumusuko.
"Okay. I'll zip my mouth," Yael then looked at me. "I think it would be better if you'll ask your man why I know you, Kat." Natatawang dagdag nito.
My brows furrowed. "He's not my man."
"He will be soon, Katrina." Makahulugan nitong sagot.
Nah, that would not gonna happen. Maling-mali kapag nangyari 'yun. Kahit nagugulohan ay hindi nalang ulit ako nagsalita.
Tim excused themselves dahil may pag-uusapan daw sila. They are outside kaya hindi ko naririnig ang pinag-uusapan nila. I am curious pero ayoko rin namang pakinggan ang mga ito.
Ito ang pangalawang beses na nakapasok ako sa office ni Tim, pero ngayon ko lang napansin kong gaano kalinis ang mga gamit na nandito. The things inside his office is well-organized, pati na rin 'yung mga papers sa table niya ay maayos ang pagkakalagay. Marami pero hindi magulo.
After minutes, the door opened again and Timothy entered. Hindi niya na kasama si Yael dahil sinirado na niya ang pinto.
"Where's your friend?" I asked.
He raised his one eyebrow. "Why are you asking about him?"
I shrug. "I'm just curious."
"I told him to leave. He's disturbing us."
"He's what?" I asked dahil masyadong mahina ang boses niya.
Umiling ito. "Nothing. I said come here."
Umupo ako sa couch katabi niya at binabantayan ang susunod niyang gagawin. May kinuha siyang bag sa gilid at may nilabas na isang box do'n.
"Here. I cooked this," aniya pagkatapos nilapag sa lamesa ang box.
Binuksan niya ito at napapikit ako sa bango ng pagkain na nandoon.
