- ADDYSON LOPEZ -
One Piece's latest volume was on the highest shelf, at dahil hindi ko ma-contain ang excitement ko, I jumped up to reach it. Ang tagal ko 'tong hinintay! Worth it, kahit pa na-out balance ako sa pagtalon at muntik pang dumulas.
"Easy," said the gentle voice from behind, as I felt arms securing gently around my waist. I knew who he was, before I even faced him. "Okay ka lang?" Julien was frowning, worried.
"Yeah, thanks." I answered with a nod. He was too close, parang gusto kong mag-panic.
"You sure?" His voice was soft, and he smelled sweet, and I felt like losing my mind. Lalo na nang ibalik niya ang ngiti ko. "Good." He eyed my comic book, "Zoro or Sanji?"
"Luffy, of course." Nag-isip ulit ako, "But my heart is actually with Ace. Robin or Nami?"
Julien smirked, amusement in his eyes. "Boa Hancock, of course."
"Ah, so you're like that." I said in mock disappointment.
We stared at each other, at sabay na bumunghalit nang tawa. Even his laughter was perfect. Wow.
"Jules?" a deep voice called, and Healer's head poked from the end of the shelf.
Right, of course. He was with Healer. Palagi naman eh. Pero bakit kahit weekends? May girlfriend naman 'tong si Healer ah, why wasn't he with her? Bakit palagi siyang panira ng moment?
At bakit parang disappointed na naman ako?
"Give me a sec," Julien said to his friend bago muling bumaling sa'kin. "Gotta go, Addy. No spoilers, okay?"
I grinned, "No promises."
He rolled his beautiful eyes, offered me a dashing smile that made me want to faint.

One piece really is the best.
I finished reading the whole volume by the time I got back to the lobby. There were more people than usual, and they were all carrying boxes.
Someone was moving in.
Nakasabay ko pa ang ilan sa kanila paakyat ng elevator, at sa iisang floor lang din ang punta namin. Pinauna ko silang lumabas when we reached the seventh floor, their destination was the unit right after's Hana's. Matagal nang bakante ang unit na 'yon according to my friend.
Addyson: We're having a neighbor.
Hana: Pogi ba?
Addyson: HAHAHAH sana 😂
Addyson: Hindi ko pa nga alam kung girl o boy, eh.
Hana: Mukhang may bago rin kaming kapit bahay dito sa'min. Ginagawa na yung malaking bakanteng lote sa katapat eh.
Addyson: Paano na ang mga concert sessions mo nyan? Baka mareklamo na kayo 😂
Hana: BLOCKED!! 🤬
Addyson: 😘✌️
Should I message Julien, too? Inform him na tapos na akong magbasa at ready na akong mag-spoil? Would he hate it? I mean, he might. Would he pout? Ano kayang itsura niya kapag nakanguso?
I sighed and held back a smile.
Gutom lang 'to.
