Textmate
I sighed. Napatingin muli ako sa hawak ko na card. Kanina ko pa itong hawak. Kahit nung pabalik sa room at hanggang sa lumabas kami ay hawak ko itong card. Wondering if ano ang gagawin ko?
Parang gago, Florian. You were asking for his number para magbayad diba? Now, why are you acting like you have no idea what to do?
"Rian! What do you want for dinner? I'm going to cook."
I bit my lower lip. Should I text him? Ang sabi ni Dos ay masama daw ang pakilasa niya.
"Hoy! Florian Deandre!" I looked up to see Maddy standing in front of me. She was wearing an apron.
Damn! I almost forgot na nandito nga pala siya sa condo ko ngayon.
"W-What?" I asked, quickly hiding the card.
"Anong what? Tsaka ano 'yan? Ano yang tinatago mo?" She asked, akmang kukunin yung papel nang mailayo ko agad.
"Wala 'to! Bumalik kana nga dun!" Pagtataboy ko.
Fuck! Hindi ako nito titigilan. Bakit ba kasi ako pumayag na dito siya matulog sa condo ko.
"Wala! Dun kana nga. Mag luto kana ulit." Tinaasan niya naman ako ng kilay at tumalikod na.
Muntikan na, bwesit talaga yung babae na yun.
"Madelaine, you little—" I shouted as she suddenly appeared and snatched the paper from my hand.
"No! I just want to see!" She ran towards the kitchen.
Damn! This woman is a nightmare!
"Give it back, Maddy!" She rolled her eyes at me.
Halos magdugo na yung labi ko kakakagat. Alam ko na aasarin niya ako e!
"Number?" She asked nang makita kung ano yung tinitingnan ko kanina pa.
I sighed. Thank god! Hindi niya malalaman kung kanino yun dahil wala namang nakalagay na pangalan ni Kairo.
"Akin na nga!" Kukunin ko na sana nang ilayo niya.
"Wait, this number is kinda familiar. " I raised my eyebrow.
Bakit familiar sa kanya? May number siya ni Kairo?
"Wait, I've seen this before." I furrowed my brow. She went to the guest room and grabbed something.
"What are you going to do with your phone?" I asked. She ignored me and walked straight to the living room.
I watched her. Wait, did she buy a new phone? The case and model looked different.
"Did you buy a new phone?" I asked, sitting beside her. I tried to see what she was doing, but she moved her phone away.
I raised my eyebrow at her. Ano ba kasing ginagawa niya?
"I knew it. Sabi na e. Kaya familiar!" Nilingon ko naman siya. Nagtataka sa sinasabi niya.
She then showed me her phone.
"Number ni Kairo 'to!" She pointed. Nasa contacts iyon.
Kairo buddy
My jaw dropped as I read it. I remembered the last digit of his number on the paper and it matched the one on her contact. Fuck? How did he know his number?
"This is not my phone. Kay Aeron 'to."
I bit my lower lip. Tang ina! Kaya naman pala. Bwesit na babae 'to, napaka talino talaga!
I rolled my eyes on her. "Akin na nga 'yan!" Inis kung inagaw sa kanya iyong papel.
Natawa naman siya at pumalakpak pa. Papansin.
