"What do you want to eat? I'll treat you." Narinig kong tanong ni Montreal sa gilid ko.
He carried almost everything we bought while I was carrying my bag, as well as a paper bag full of glue sticks and other decorations. We even argued that we're just divided in carrying what we bought, but all I said, he had an objection.
I just ignored him then because he wanted to brag in front of me again. When we landed here in front of 7/11, we went inside. Mukhang ala una na nga yata kami makakarating ng SSU dahil bbyahe pa kami, traffic pa 'man din.
"Ako na magbabayad sa kakainin ko." I calmly said and went to the food stall where there were lunch packs that were ready-to-eat and just heated in the microwave.
"I will treat you, Samira. Ako nagdala sa 'yo rito at napagod pa kita. Besides, hindi ka kasama nu'ng nanlibre ako last time sa SSC members." Suddenly, his voice weakened, and I heard exactly what he was mumbling.
So, he wants to treat me because he felt bad about it?
"I have my own money, Montreal." Our eyes met, which gave me some strange feeling. I don't know what it is. "It's fine, you don't have to. And please, call me by my surname."
"We're out of SSU grounds-"
"And?" I shut him off. "Look, just because we're talking casually does it mean we're friends already."
He was dumbfounded when I walked away from him.
