Our Love On Spring

Chapter 27

"Anong Veronilla, not Alcantara?"

Mariin akong napapikit habang inaalala ang nangyari kanina. Nasa loob na ako ng kwarto na sinabi ni Thadz.

"Is she... married?" I gasped. "There's no way she is!" Naalala ko na naman na hindi buo ang pangalan ni Sanya. Could it be her surname, then?

Agad akong napabangon sa pagkakahiga. Umikot ako para dumapa. Agad kong sinubsob ang mukha ko sa unan.

Her face... she looked more mature. She got taller or is it because she's wearing a heels? No idea.

I groaned. Mas lalo kong sinubsob ang mukha ko sa unan. Please, it has been so long. Hindi na dapat ganito nararamdaman ko.

"G'morning."

Nakita ko sila Jade sa may kusina. They were still not eating. Parang meron silang meeting. I shrugged it off and went to the lababo. Apat lang sila doon, dalawang babae na hindi ko kilala, sunod ay si Cullen at Jade na.

"Pero what if nga, 'di ba?"

Napalingon ako sa nagsalita. It might be one of Jade's housemate. And obviously a friend.

"Oh, okay lang 'yan, 'wag kang iiyak." Nang-aalaska pa 'tong si Jade.

After making a coffee, I went to their side. "What's the tea?" I jokingly asked.

"Feeling kasi nitong si Lei, 'yong shota niya may asawa." Natatawang saad ni Jade.

Agad na nangunot ang noo ko, "kabit ka?!"

Natigilan ang lahat ng nasa mesa. They looked at me like I was beheaded. Cullen broke the silence by laughing.

"Tang—" di niya tinuloy ang sasabihin at tumawa na lang.

"Shota ibig sabihin ng crush. Gano'n dito, kuya," Jade explained.

I pursed my lips and stared at Cullen who was still laughing hysterically. I can feel my ears reddeningand getting hot. "Oh, okay, I get it now. You could stop laughing already, Len."

Agad na huminto si Cullen. Nilingon ko naman 'yong dalawang babae na nag-uusap pa rin.

"Ka-apilido niya si Manager."

Agad kong nilingon si Jade, "sinong Manager tinutukoy nila?"

Si Cullen naman ang sumagot na kinabugnot ko. "'Yong kabardagulan mo kagabi."

Nilingon ko si Cullen. "How could they say na kasal?"

"Sa bibig mo na nanggaling kagabi na Alcantara apilido niya," sagot ni Jade. "Ka-apilido niya magiging... kasama namin."

Natigilan ako. I let out a sigh.

So her husband could be here too? Wait... ano bang pake ko? Teka... I, myself, is not also so sure about her getting married... or was she really? Ugh, geez.

Lumabas na muna ako sandali. I keep on mumbling to myself she's not married and that Veronilla is her supposed surname.... but what if she's really married?

"You okay?"

"Fvcking Geez!" Napahawak ako sa dibdib ko.

Ate was standing right in front of me.

No! She can't be here. Deja vu... she might have deja vu as I had.

"What are you saying earlier? You keep on mumbling."
