Chapter Nine: Such A Player
I didn't have to hesitate, I didn't need to think, I just returned back to the car and drove to the closest restaurant to get some food.
I chose to eat at Aida's cafe.
Kumain muna ako sa loob, ang dami kong kinain. I ate fries, nachos, a sandwich, and another sandwich. Buti na lang at wala siya dito o baka kanina niya pa 'ko inaasar kakakain ko dito, lamon ako nang lamon.
Nagtakeout ako pagkatapos. Extra french fries, mocha frappuchino na rin at iced coffee rin just in case that Cerine wants some but of course, she won't, kaya akin na lang 'to.
"Anyare sa'yo?" Complain ni Cerine sa'kin pagbalik ko.
"What? 'Di pwedeng kumain?"
"Kumain? Ba't parang galit ka?"
Ako? Galit? Please, disappointed lang ako at narealize ko na gutom na gutom na pala ako, 'di ko na nga maalala kung kumain ba 'ko kanina.
Who gives a fuck?
I just want to eat, that's it.
"Gusto mo ba?" Offer ko nung Iced coffee, umiling naman siya tsaka upo.
"So.. how was your date?"
Muntik na 'kong mabulunan, buti na lang at nasa tabi ko yung frappuchino at Iced coffee, nailigtas ko yung sarili ko, thankfully.
"Date?" Ulit ko sabay ubo at inom ulet sa Iced coffee.
"Yes, date. 'Di ba pumunta ka sa kanya? The staff told me you left somewhere else."
"Yes, but... not for him? I went for food, hello?"
"Why are you so defensive?"
Tangina.
"Because I am hungry, and offended. 'Di gano'n 'no, I'm not going to see him, busy ako at siguro busy siya sa mga babae niya..."
He was with a woman, they seem to be talking, or flirting. Pake ko, bahala siya.
See? Tama ako, tama talaga ako. 'Di ako seseryosohin ng lalaking yo'n. He has plans, he probably just wants to play with me. Peste, anong klaseng deal 'to kung makikipaglaro lang siya sa'kin.
"Cerine."
"Hm?"
"Can I see the papers again?"
"What papers?"
Pinunasan ko muna yung dumi sa may labi ko bago ko siya sinagot at kinuha yung sandwich mula sa paper bag.
"Kandidato... para sa magiging asawa ko."
Noon, single pa yung mga lalaki sa papeles, some of them were said to be dating someone but led to a break up at naghahanap na rin yata nang aasawain nila just like me.
I went to dates with them and I hated them immediately, not all of them but the others were annoying.
Maybe I am picky. Maybe I am choosy.
But fuck it, I am worth it.
Maganda ako, matalino, mayaman, may-ari ng mga kumpanya sa pamilya na'min, maganda rin naman ang personality ko. Anong problema kung maghanap ako nang lalaki na sa palagay ko ay deserve ko?
