Jema's
Deanna and I are walking hand in hand as we head to the steak house. We are at my Dad's mall and we just want to eat out since we can't be alone these past few days because of our friends.
Ginawa na kasing tambayan ng mga kaibigan namin ang bahay ko. Kapag wala silang ginagawa or pasok sa trabaho, malamang sa bahay namin mo sila matatagpuan.
Hindi na rin ako masyadong nagb-bar instead, nag-iinuman na lang kami sa bahay. Mas masaya pala pag ganun. It's an intimate moment with them and it was just fun and warm.
"You sure you wanna eat there?"
"Why? Diba you love steak?"
"Steak lang 'yon mas mahal kita." I grinned.
"Galing! May baon ka na namang bola ah."
"Why you keeps saying it's bola when it is true naman. Why can't you just admit na kinikilig ka sakin." Inirapan ko siya ng ilapit pa niya ang mukha niya sakin para asarin ako.
"Hindi naman kasi talaga nakakakilig."
"Pero nakangite ka?"
"Hindi pwedeng masaya lang ako kasi kasama kita?" I laughed when she stopped from walking and stared at me.
"Ang daya mo na naman!"
"Kinikilig ka lang eh. Kawawang Deanna, nalalamangan na." Hinila ko na siya para magpatuloy kami sa paglalakad.
"Nakakakilig naman ako ah?" I rolled my eyes. She's really competitive.
"Baby, are you not kilig of me anymore?" Ayan na naman siya sa pagiging conyo niya.
"Baby, baby, baby!" she's pulling my hair.
"Akala ko ba kakain tayo ng steak? Ang kulit kulit mo." she smiled.
"Oo na nakakakilig ka na!" hindi siya titigil hangga't hindi ako magpapatalo eh.
"Bakit pilit?" she's pouting now.
"Isa." I glared at her. ayaw talaga tumigil eh.
"Biro lang, I love you po." mabilis niya kong niyakap bago ako hinila.
Natawa na lamang ako. Kung minsan talaga ang babaw ng mga pinag-aawayan naming dalawa. Ewan ko ba dito kay Deanna, ang competitive sobra.
"Jemaaaaaaaa!" I stopped from walking as I turned my attention to the one who called my name.
Napabitaw ako kay Deanna ng salubungin ako ng yakap ni Zeco.
Gucci! That was quick. Ano ba 'tong lalaking 'to, grabe kung yumakap.
Humiwalay siya sakin at nginitian ako.
"Good to see you here! How are you?" Ang happy naman niya.
"Ayos naman. Ikaw ba?"
"Ayos lang din. Katatapos ko lang sa practice. Actually, kakain ako ngayon. Samahan mo naman ako?" He's making paawa face.
Awtomatiko akong tumingin kay Deanna na tahimik na lang sa gilid ko. She's just watching us.
"Oh, you're with your bodyguard pala."
"Oo eh. Kakain din kami."
"Great! Kain tayong tatlo, may alam akong magandang restaurant dito." Gucci! Paano ko ba ie-explain sa lalaking 'to na I'm having a date.
"Ano kasi eh, pwedeng next time na lang?"
"Sige na, please. Ngayon na nga lang tayo nagkita eh. No worries, my treat. Tara na!" Hindi na ako makapalag ng hawakan niya ang braso ko at hilahin sa kung saan.
