Nonchalant falls for OA

Chapter One

Io's (🦊) Point of View

"Hui! Ang ingay nyo, may natutulog pa sa kanila!"

"Si Anna kasi!"

"Bakit ako?!"

What the hell is happening...?  I woke up groggily to check the time was.

(6:00 a.m) Patuloy pa rin yung ingay sa labas, isa sa mga ayaw ko nagagambala yung sleep ko. I was up playing too much Call of Duty, di ko natigilan.

"Aray! Ano ba?!"

For God's sakes.. Bumangon na ako at kinuha ko yung zip up jacket ko, I fell asleep kasi wearing my sports bra dahil mas comfy ako sa ganon these days. I wore it and didn't bother to zip it up na lang, they already saw how I look with my sports bra on and everything.

"Ate Abby kasi, pagsabihan mo naman oh." Boses pala ni Lindsay yun, nag aaway ba tong mga ito?

"Anna, ibigay mo na kasi yung charger nya. Ang aga aga ninyo mag away, baka nagigising na yung iba." Pag aawat ni Ate Abby.

Huh, I'm right. Nag aaway nanaman yung Tom  and Jerry ng barkada.

I unlocked my bedroom door as I yawned after I opened my door, to see the three stopped their quarrel.

"Isn't a bit maaga para mag fight?" I asked, leaning myself to the right against my door frame. "Don't sigaw, baka hindi lang ako magising."

"Si Lindsay kasi, nagpaalam ako kagabi na gagamitin ko cord dahil di pa ako nakakapamili." Pagmamaktol ni Anna, "Ngayon, sasabihin nya she didn't charge?"

"Wala ka sinasabi sakin kagabi!" Sabi ni Lin, I saw that they are indeed fighting. Kinusot ko mata ko tapos I held my hand high at them.

"Teka." Tanging nasabi ko as I took out a spare cord for Lindsay, Naglakad na ako pabalik as I gave it to her. "Wag na kayo mag away, gamitin mo muna. Balik mo pag goods na phone mo."

After that little quarrel, I watched Abby na hinatid yung dalawa before going back at my doorstep. I smiled sleepily and looked at her, she chuckled after.

"Tom & Jerry are asleep na,Io. Sorry sa ingay nila, nagising rin ako dahil sa boses nila sa kanilang kwarto." She suddenly said and looked at me, inabot nya mukha ko tapos naramdaman ko na inaayos nya mukha ko. "Never ako masasanay sa bagong gising na itsura mo."

"Heh, why ba?" Ask ko then napahikab ulit ako.

"Masyadong pogi." Ani nya tapos saka nya inabot yung zipper nung jacket ko, masyado kasi mapang asar si Ate Abby e. "Hay nako, sana di ka na lang jacket napakasayang naman e."

She loves to do this with any of our friends. Yung pagiging touchy and tease ba, wala naman kaming problema sa ganito nya. It's actually bagay sa kanya na ganito, there's this one time na napagkamalan sya na playgirl dahil halos lahat kami nilingkisan nya sa isang party not too long ago. But, of course... Dinefend namin sya kasi it looked so bad that a fight almost broke out just because of that accusation. Abby is a nice girl, she isn't a flirt or a playgirl to anyone. Sadya na yun sa kanya as a way for her to be... her.

"Why sayang ba?" I asked again and as I watched her zip up my hoodie then saw that she wrapped her arms around my neck as she hugged me, "Abigail?"

"Please, for the love of God.. Don't call me Abigail." Atungal nya kaya natawa ako, "Nang aasar ka na ah?"

"'I am not." I said laughing and she hit my arm playfully, "Ouch-"

"Sus, akala mo naman." Ngisi nyang sabi sabay alis sa pagkakayakap na talaga sakin, "Want to prepare breakfast with me? Gising na rin naman tayo."

I nodded as I unzipped a little, napasobra lang yung pagkakazipper nya. Kulang na lang sakalin nya ako don. Hinawakan nya yung wrist ko sabay dahan dahan nya ako hinila sa kusina.
