" you never celebrated your birthdays ? "
I am sitting sideways in the passenger seat just to talk to him properly. So yeah, we were driving back to his home. Finally those people are tired so we all decided to get home after celebrating our loss to Fontana.
What a crazy night.
And I just learned from his teammates that he honestly never celebrated his birthdays. Like literally not even once. They just drink at a bar all night long and barely couldnt make it back home due to drunkenness. I heard about it from his teammates and I just wanted to have a conversation with him inside the car but Jared is still not into it.
Like honestly, I dont know what to do anymore.
Hindi pa rin siya makausap. Napilitan lang siyang magsalita kanina pero ngayon, nagmamaktol pa rin siya.
I'm so done with this.
" whats the big deal ? The day will end eventually. "
See ? Sinong gaganahan makipag usap sa ganyan. Kanina pa siya at pagod na akong tanungin kung anong problema niya. If he doesnt want to talk then fine.
I never asked anything anymore. Well today I learned that he doesnt want to celebrate his birthday. One fact about Jared everybody, he doesnt celebrate his birthdays.
Talagang wala din siyang balak kausapin ako dahil hanggang sa makarating kami sa Birkenstock heights ay hindi niya talaga ako kinibo. He droves pass through the guardhouse with just a nod and didnt bother to stop for a while and greet the kind guards.
This is unbelievable.
We soon reach the front of his gate and I immediately volunteered to open it and got out of his car before he could even say anything. The Birkenstock heights residents doesnt lock their gates so I know what to do to ease the silence in that damn car. Iiwan ko siya duon. Tutal ayaw niya naman akong kausapin. Why am I even here ?
Dere-deretsyo niyang ginarahe yung sasakyan at hindi nga talaga huminto man lang sa akin at buksan ang bintana man lang.
I smiled and sigh on myself.
This is too much. Ano bang ginawa ko sa kanya at kanina pa yang galit niya.
I reluctantly went to the car to get my bag but he grabbed it from the back before getting out.
" thanks "
He did not hand it to me but rather carried it himself and he took my hand to walk inside.
We went straight to his bedroom and he puts down my bag there.
" where is Odin ? " Alam kong hindi kami nagkikibuan pero gusto kong makita yung aso niya.
" I left him at the Rodhams. They're probably asleep. I'll get him tomorrow. "
Oh okay. Naupo na lang ako sa couch at hinubad ang sapatos ko. He sits beside me and untie the other shoe. Natawa ako at sumandal na lang. Hinubad niya yung sapatos ko at saka saglit na tumingin sa akin.
" are you tired ? "
" No. Upset actually. What's the matter Jared ? Please answer me wholeheartedly this time. Dahil kung hindi mo ako kakausapin mas magandang umuwi na lang ako. "
Pumikit siya at sumandal rin. He sighed like he had been depressed all his life. Siya pa ang may ganang magalit ngayon.
But he kept silent like he is hesitant to say something.
Ang tagal kong nag antay pero hindi siya nagsalita. He remain staring at his night sky ceiling. Bahala na siya. I wont wait until he made up his mind if he's gonna say it or not. I'll leave him alone.
