Dating Mr. Podgy

CHAPTER 03

"ANO?!" Sabay-sabay na usak ng tatlo.

"Wait! Wait! Wait! You Lexi? Then Chito? You must be kidding us..." natatawang sabi ni Nepthalie.

"I'm not kidding, it's a date..." she said.

"Ang daming nanaligaw sa'yo, really? Siya pa? You dimwit little brat!" Deanna commented.

She just rolled her eyes. "Guys, judgmental much? It's a date, but it's a friendly date, okay? No string attached, so please stop this nonsense..." she said.

"Eh akala namin, pumatol ka sa kanya eh, he's not on your level Lexi, remember that..." Bianca said.

Why are they so judgemental, she's just trying to be nice to that guy, and hey, he has his feelings too. They are not on the same level? How come, when all of them were just all humans and made by God, An individual status' were only made by a person's satisfaction of who's more higher and who's the most lowest.

Even if they are her friends, she cannot tolerate that action. "Bianca stop, I'm sorry to tell you this, but you're not in the place to said those things, okay?" pangangaral niya sa kaibigan.

"Fine, whatever Lexi. Bast don't forget next week, our shopping okay?" she reminded her before she left.

"Hayy, still the same old Bianca, brat.." napapalingong tugon ni Deanna while looking at Bianca's back.

"Isa ka pa, stop judging that person okay?" aniya.

Her phone beeped so she get her phone to check on it. It's from the dating app, a message from Lance.

Lance_DelFuerte
-Hi Lexi, I hope you're fine and doing good, I miss you..

Kumunot ang nuo niya, that's strange, he never said anything like it before sa ilang weeks nilang pag-uusap.

Alexi_Marseille
-Hi Lance, just you know, nasangkot for another issue, it's so tiring dealing all of this, and what's with the 'I miss u' btw?

She hit the send button, and looked at Deanna, who's also busy with her phone. Good, akala niya nakikichismis rin ito.

Lance_DelFuerte
-An issue, yeah I saw that, so what do you think of that guy? Hmm?

-well, I just miss your voice Lex...

Tumango-tango naman siya, miss her voice pala ah. That made her chuckle a bit.

Meanwhile, that small chuckle, caught Deanna's attention, and suddenly, dahan-dahan siyang sumilip roon sa phone ni Lexi and what she saw left her shock.

Alexi_Marseille
-OMG! that's a friendly date lang, early dinner na rin... Why are you missing my voice?

Lance_DelFuerte
-So it's a date? Hahaha... Well I guess your voice completes my day, and your presence completes my life...

She laughed and smiled so hard, okay that got her. Hindi niya aakalain na sa loob ng labing-walo niyang taong pagkabuhay sa mundong ito, ay ngayonnlamang siya kinilig.

Yes, it's a simple and common lines, but it feels so cute.

Nagulat na lamang siya ng may biglang bumatok sa kanya and saw Deanna raising an eyebrow . "Not listening to my stupid idea ha? E ano 'yan? Kinikilig ka pa ha, hindi mo man lang sinabi sa'kin, peyk prend ka Lexi, toxic prend..." drama nito.

"Fine, nahuli mo na ako, so what? I think, this is fun" aniya.

"Mmm, eh sino yang kausap mo? Tatawa-tawa ka pa ha" panunudyo nito sabay tingin sa kanyang hawak na cellphone.
