CHAPTER 05
Two weeks had already passed. Malapit nang mag-end ang 4th semester. Ibig sabihin nalalapit na rin ang vacation at soon to be fourth-year college student na kami. I'm also glad na inextend ng proffesor namin yung deadline ng painting task at pwede daw ipasa sa last week ng fourth semester kaya marami pa akong oras maghanap ng inspirasyon. Pfft.
Naglalakad lang akong mag-isa dito sa hallway at medyo maaga pa kaya walang masyadong mga estudyante. This past few days, or probably last week, medyo mas late na din pumapasok si Bliss which is a little bit weird. Eh mas maaga pa ‘yon sa tandang na magising eh. Madalang din siyang nakiki join sa amin ng lunch ni Mav, palagi siyang may kausap sa phone, maaga rin siyang umuuwi kapag uwian. Sabi niya may bago daw siyang trabaho pero ayaw niya namang sabihin kung saan. Hays, bahala siya sa buhay niya.
Papasok na ako ng elavator nang saktong tumunog ang phone ko. Dinukot ko ito mula sa pocket ng pantalon ko at agad na sinagot ito.
Mom is calling...
“Hey, mom”
[Hello, son. How are you doing? I miss you so much!]
“I’m doing fine, mom. Kayo po ni dad, kumusta? I miss you too, mom”
[We're doing fine too, son]
“That’s great mom. Bakit nga po pala kayo napatawag? Is there a problem in your new medical mission?”
[Ahh no, not at all. *chuckles* I called becuse I want to tell you some good news]
“Nice. What is it, mom?”
[Uuwi na kami ng dad mo the next upcoming day and we will be having a dinner. I want you to invite Mav and your other friends kung meron hahaha]
“That’s really great, mom! What’s that suppose to mean? Of course, may bago na rin akong friend”
[Wow, I’m surprised. You are so picky pagdating sa pagpili ng friends, son. I want to meet him. Is he handsome like you and Mav? *gently laughs*]
“Uh...she's actually a girl, m-mom”
[Ooh, really? Are you sure friends lang kayo? Baka naman may girlfriend na ang baby boy ko?]
“Mom, no! And don’t call me baby, I’m a grown up man now, pfft”
[Ayiee yiee. Whatever, son. Do your best at school. Can’t wait to see you soon!]
“Tsh. I will, mom. Can’t wait to see you too. Bye”
-toot toot-
Sabi ko na nga ba aasarin lang ako ni mom, tsk. Pero teka, nasabi ko bang iinvite ko si Bliss sa dinner? Aish! Papayag naman kaya ‘yun? Paano ko ba siya makukumbinse? Tulongan niyo naman ako.
Pahila-hilata lang kayo diyan ah? Tapos mo na ba modules mo? Naligo ka na ba?
(A/N: Hoy! Huwag mong pagalitan readers ko, Lime, hindi na tayo bati!)
Edi ‘wag!
(A/N: Okay, sige. Madali lang ako kausap. Hanap ka nalang ng sarili mong ka-love team ah? Bye!)
T-Teka naman author! ‘Di mabiro? Aish!
MAVERICK’S POINT OF VIEW
(A/N: Hi! Baka magtaka lang po kayo. First POV po ito ni Mav. Yung buddy ni Lime)
“Bro, I think I’m gonna’ be crazy!”, I exclaimed on the phone.
“Relax, dude. What’s the matter?”, Willard asked on the line. Iniipit ko ang phone ko between my ear and my shoulder habang isinusuot ang sapatos ko.
