A Mad Woman, Allison.

CHAPTER SIX: YELLOW & GREEN

A heard a knock on my door. I went to open it just to catch a look at Selene's bored face.

“What brings you here?” That was the first thing that came into my mind seeing her in front of my apartment.

“What brings me here?” She imitated my tone. “Ikaw, malamang!” My ears almost explode when she shouted right in front of my face. She's overreacting it.

“How did you know I live here? As far as I remember, I didn't tell you that,” I said.

She rolled her eyes. “Jusko naman, Allison! Pwede bang mamaya ka na lang muna mag-interrogation at papasukin mo muna ako? Isa-isa lang!” Dang. She sounds like my mother scolding me after she visited my place. I widely opened the door for her. She sat on the sofa as I closed the door.

I looked at her.

“Hinatid ako rito no'ng Ryan,” she answered.

“He came here?” I checked to see if she was confessing the truth or just joking around.

“Huwag mo nang hanapin, umalis na rin kaagad.” I turned my gaze to her. “Alam mo, nakakasama ka ng loob, ha. Sa iba ko pa talaga malalaman kung saan ka nakatira, really?” She sounded sarcastic.

“I was busy,” I explained.

“Busy saan, exactly? Sa school ba talaga, o sa love life?” Her tone was provoking.

“School, obviously! Why would I be busy in that stupid thing?” I sounded defensive.

“Sus, ako pa niloko mo. Kilala na kita,” she told. “Siguro kaya hindi ka na nagkukwento kasi ayaw mong maudlot. Hahaha.” She chuckled.

“Nonsense.” I rolled my eyes. “You also never told me anything since we last met,” I continued.

“Aber, ano namang ikukwento ko sa 'yo? Iyong sobrang daming plates na kailangang ipasa? 'Wag na lang at ma-s-stress lang ako lalo!” She raised her voice. “Wala man lang inspiration na dumating, lalong tatamarin ka.”

“You can tell me anything regarding your life. Even the most stupid thing you did in class. You know I'm always up for listening to your kwentos,” I asserted.

“Ewan ko sa 'yo. Sa totoo lang ay ikaw nga itong maraming ganap sa buhay,” she said. “Tingin mo bang hindi ko alam na na-principal's office ka, ha?” That piqued my attention.

“You knew?” I asked.

“Malamang! Kalat kaya sa halos lahat ng department, 'no.” Her facial expressions were priceless. I can't help but laugh inside my mind. “Pinairal mo na naman pagiging bad bitch mo. Ayan, na-punishment ka tuloy.” My lips formed a half smile, almost a smirk.

“Well, it's not my fault a curse was let out of my mouth.” Nagkibit-balikat pa ako.

“Pero teh, may film viewing tayo. Kaya mo na ba?” She looks concerned.

“I have no choice. It's graded,” I replied.

“Bakit kasi magkakaiba ng schedule ang bawat department,” nanghihinayang pang saad niya. But then, her face brightened. “Hindi ba magkaklase naman kayo ni Ryan? Sa kaniya ka na lang kaya sumabay?” she proposed.
