Just Us

Chapter Five

My head started to ache as I don't know why just maybe because my body clock got destroyed.

I can't get enough on the idea that maybe I hurt her that night. At ako na pinakilala ang sariling may karelasyon. It was a fuckin' dream! Ifm can literally shop the man away without using anyone but because she was walking towards me, I claimed that she was my girlfriend!

I sighed in annoyance as I saw the face of my friend, once I opened my eyes. Mabilis ko itong hinawi sa akin at nang mapatingin sa alarm clock na nakapatong sa lamesa sa tabi ng kama ay napakamot na lang ako ng ulo sa dismaya. It's too early, and I don't have  enough sleep since my room mate told me about her thoughts.

Hindi na rin ako umuwi sa condo unit niya dahil hindi ko siya kayang pakiharapan nang hindi bumabaling ang utak ko kung saan-saan. I don't even know how to face her because as far as I remember I outed her.

I admitted it few time ago, I found her very charming, her sexiness was hidden through her bubbly personality. I don't want to taint her primitive idea about relationships and love.

Wala pa rin talagang mangyayari. Even when I moved out to her condo, siya pa rin ang iniisip ko. And funny on how I didn't have any girl for more than a week now.

We even attend to a party last night yet I didn't have an appetite for a boost like pleasure and sex.

Dahil wala na rin akong magawa ay tumayo na lang rin ako at nagpunta sa kusina nang unit ni Maureen, my friend since high school, silang dalawa ng kakambal niya actually but suddenly, I grew awkward on her twin since the day Colton confessed.

I checked my phone only to see tons of unread messages from home, Dad and Papa, even her.

Dumiretso ako sa inbox ng shop ko and smile crept on my lips as I checked the reviews. My online pastry shop got a  hundred thousand  of likes kahit na kabubukas ko lang nito wala pang isang taon.

The reviews and sales become my outlet of financial capability kaya nabibili ko ang mga gusto ko. Though, my parents gave me enough money to cover for my needs I didn't have a motivation to use it.

Nagsimula na rin akong mag prepare ng flour and such ingredients like egg and melted butter. Kailangan din muna itong i-rest for hours bago ko bilugin at ilagay sa tray.

Since marami-raming cookies ang magagawa ay nag-post ako sa page ng available 'yung cookies mamayang hapon and guess what, the customers excitedly order their own.

May kotse naman din ako at driver's license kaya hindi rin ako nahihirapan mag-deliver.

On top of that, I am proud that the funds I had used were from this.

Nang mamasa ko na ang dough nang maayos ay binalutan ko na rin ng plastic wrap bago ko ni rest sa oven.

Pagkatapos ay nagtimpla na rin ako ng aking chocolate drink bago ko pinagpahinga sa high chair ng countertop ang katawan.

"A, gising ka na pala." I tilted my head only to see the two girls making out. I rolled my eyes and scratched my brows, pinagtuunan ng pansin ang hot chocolate na iniinom ko.

"Hmm? Mag be-bake ka ng cookies?" Siguro ay nakita nito ang nakalagay sa oven niya.

Umupo ang dalawa sa dalawang magkatabing high chair sa harapan ko. Aileen, the 'girlfriend' of my friend walked towards where I prepare my hot chocó, at pagbalik niya ay dalawa ng mug ang dala niya.

Maureen on the other hand let her girlfriend leaned towards her just to whisper something silly. How should I know that it is silly? Because they both laugh like a maniac and I saw how Aileen blush like a tomato before she sat down gracefully.
