Sandro's POV:

I immediately put down my plates sa table at umupo na habang tinitingnan si Hiraya.

Why does she triggered me so much.

Ano bang meron sa kanya?

"Are you okay, bro?" Simon asked me and I looked at him.

Ba't nasa harapan ko 'to?

I looked at the person beside me at nakatakip siya ng bibig niya.

Pinipigilan niya ang sarili niya sumigaw.

"Um... hi?" I asked her.

Agad naman syang ngumiti at tinanggal ang sariling kamay niya sa bunganga.

"Hi... Sandro." She said.

Okay... this girl is weird.

"Who are you again?" I asked.

Bigla naman nag-iba ang expression ng mukha niya.

"Sandro... she's Mirana... Hiraya's friend. Remember?" Simon said na parang sinasabi na insensitive ako.

"Oh.. right.. I'm sorry." I said to her and she just gave me a fake smile and nodded.

"Hi, guys. Miss me?" Vinny said ng dumating ito.

Nasa likuran niya naman si Hiraya.

"Hiraya, dito ka na maupo sa tabi ko." Simon immediately offered her the seat at agad naman itong sumunod.

I rolled my eyes at her.

Si Vinny naman ang nasa gitna ng table.

"So...how are my two my handsome kuyas?" Vinny said as he held us on our shoulders.

"We're good, bro.. ikaw? Kamusta ang Singapore?" Sagot naman ni Simon.

"It's good. I've met a lot of people... especially girls." He said grinning.

"Classic Vinny." I said and he slightly punches me.

"Hindi niyo naman sinabi na magdadala kayo ng dates ngayon. Sana nagdala din ako." Vinny said habang tinitingnan si Hiraya at Mirana.

"Oh no no.. magkakaibigan lang po kami." Hiraya answered.

Simon and Mirana nodded simultaneously habang hindi ko naman napigilan ang sarili ko to laugh.

Lahat sila nakatingin sa akin wondering why I am laughing.

"Bro... what's so funny?" Vinny asked.

"No no nothing... um natawa lang ako that she assumed that we are friends here." I told him.

Napayuko naman si Hiraya.

"Sandro!" Simon raised his voice on me.

"What?"

"Tama naman ako di ba? We are not friends with them. No offense." I confidently said as I took a sushi.

"Bro... just stop."Simon said.

"Oh no... did I offend you, Hiraya?" I sarcastically asked.

"Did I hurt your feelings by making you assume that we are friends even tho we're not?"

"Masakit ba? Hah."

"Pero parang mas masakit yata yung akala mo may naghihintay sayo pero pagbalik mo, nawala na parang bula." I said.

"Sandro.. please--"

"Excuse me." Hiraya hurriedly ran away.

"Hiraya!" Simon tried to stop her.

"Raya... wait.." Mirana followed her.

Natahimik naman kaming tatlo.

"What was that?" Simon asked.

"I- I don't know."

I answered.

Hindi ko din talaga alam bakit nag lash out ako bigla.

Siguro nasasaktan pa rin ako?

I didn't even get any proper explanations from her.

"Well one thing I know is, it was awkward." Sumabat naman si Vinny habang ngumunguya ng sushi.

"I need to be alone." I said at agad na lumabas.

I decided na maglakad-lakad muna dito sa mall.

Just to think and maybe buy a polo shirt or two.

"Rana, mauna ka ng umuwi. Kailangan ko lang mapag-isa--"

I purposely bumped into her.

Narinig ko siya eh and then I decided to show up to her.

Nagulat naman si Hiraya.

She looked at me with her beautiful brown eyes.

And here I am, falling for it all over again.

Sa isang iglap, nagbago'ng lahat
Hindi ko na kaya pa na magpanggap

Ikaw ang kumpas 'pag naliligaw
Ikaw ang kulay sa langit na bughaw
Sa bawat bagyo na dumadayo
Ikaw ang kanlungan na kailangan ko
Kahit hindi mo alam
Ilang beses mo akong niligtas
Ikaw ang hantungan at aking wakas
