It's weekend and narito kami ngayon sa cafeteria dahil lunch na, absent din si Zio, wala daw kase magbabantay sa ate niya, parehong busy naman sa work ang mga magulang nila,
hays kawawang bata
"Hayss grabeee.. ang sakit ng ulo ko." Reklamo ni kath habang hawak ang ulo.
"Inom pa." Biro ko kahit alam kong hindi naman ito ang dahilan, stress kase siya sa Genmath sub namin. Tinignan naman ako nito ng masama, natawa nalang ako. "Sige na nga ako na oorder, what do you want to eat?" I asked.
"Kahit ano na.. basta nakakabusog." Sabi nito bago dumukdok sa mesa.
"Okie."
While I was heading to get some food, not paying much attention to my surroundings, I accidentally bumped into someone, muntik nang matapon ang dala nitong tray na naglalaman ng mga pagkain. Before I could apologize, she started to react with annoyance.
"Hey, watch where you're going!" she snapped, clearly irritated.
I blinked in surprise, taken aback by her sudden outburst. Then, as she turned to face me, recognition slowly dawned on both of us.
"Jam?" I blurted out, unable to believe my eyes. She turned, her expression mirroring my surprise.
"Gab--" she began, Agad kong tinakpan ang bibig nito para hindi matuloy ang sasabihin. Her eyes widened in response, a mix of confusion and curiosity.
"Mmksfmhkhhmmm!!!"
"Shhh," I whispered urgently, glancing around to make sure no one had noticed our abrupt encounter. Buti nalang at lahat ay abala sa pagkain.
Reluctantly, she nodded, her gaze questioning but compliant. I slowly removed my hand from her mouth, hoping she understood the need for discretion.
Agad ko siyang hinila palabas ng cafeteria, binitawan ko lang ito nang nakarating kami sa likod kung nasaan ang malaking puno ng mangga.
"Gabrielle..." she started, her voice softening as she looked at me with a hint of vulnerability. "I-is that really you?"
"Jam, what are you doing here?" I asked, my tone a blend of curiosity and concern. The last time I saw her was months ago,
"Shouldn't I be the one asking you that? I thought you were the one in the US." Panimula nito. "And why the hell did you cover my mouth back there!?" she finally asked, her voice tinged with curiosity.
I hesitated, searching for the right words. "I... I didn't want anyone to overhear us," I replied honestly, my gaze never leaving hers. "I didn't expect to run into you like this."
"Neither did I." Halata sa boses nito ang pagka irita. "Don't fvcking change the topic you witch what are you doing here in the Philippines!" Bakit ba siya sigaw ng sigaw!
"Look... things have been... complicated," I admitted, my voice barely above a whisper.
Hinarap ko siya ng makabawi ako sa gulat.
"Teka nga.. bakit ba tayo nag eenglishan dito, nasa pilipinas tayo. At bakit mo ba ako sinisigawan ha, baka nakakalimutan mo kung sino ako ha Jamille Kate De Asis." Mukhang natauhan naman ito.
"I'm sorry I'm just shocked... Sino ba namang hindi mabibigla ha Gab ang buong akala ko ay nasa US ka't nagsasanay." She burst.
"It's... A complicated story Jam."
