Too Late To Stay, Too Late To Say [ A BINI AU SERIES #2 ]

Chapter 20: Collaboration

Mali's Pov.

I woke up as I did my routine. May big time event kasi sa malaking stadium dito sa Manila and I'm kinda excited to meet other aspiring artists doon.

" Sana andun Ms.Kitchie Nadall," Isip ko habang inaayos yung sarili ko.

Pagkatapos kong mag-ayos ay tinawagan ko si Khali to pick me up pero no response coming from her.

" Unusual naman ng ganito, she will answer this right away kahit nagkaroon kami ng argument ah," Isip ko at tinawagan ko naman si Gwy agad.

" Hello? " Sagot ni Gwy. " Gwy, san si Khali? Can you tell her to pick me up? " Favor ko sakanya pero she sighed.

" Nauna na siyang pumunta sa event eh, mukhang bad mood siya nung umalis siya dito and It's confusing na hindi ka niya sinundo diyan," Sagot niya.

I screwed up big time on this one.

" May nangyari ba sainyo? Teka, nag-away ba kayo? Kasi kahapon nung nagkaroon tayo ng hangout, hindi siya umiimik nung pauwi na kami," Tanong ni Gwy.

" Hindi, maybe na-bad mood lang kasi magiging busy na naman kami, tayo... I mean," Sagot ko and she hummed in response.

" Sige... Need to go, my collaboration kami ni Shamie at ng lovebirds," Sabi niya as she ended the call.

I guess, pupunta dun ng mag-isa.

Khali's Pov.

I already got here and as much as I want to fetch Mali sa condo niya. Ayaw ko namang I-invade yung space niya, diba? She's right after all, nagiging mapilit ako sometimes sumama sakanya kahit ayaw niya. I guess, I need to be distant a little.

" Yow, sup? " Bati ni Cole.

Ay, brother ni Nicolette to ah. Bumalik na siya after his success bilang artists sa U.S?

" I didn't know na you came back here sa Philippines, how's life in U.S? " Tanong ko and he smiled. " Good naman, maraming na-explore and I'm having fun, to be honest... ikaw? " Sagot niya.

" Well me, aspiring artists here and nakapagpatayo narin ng own company with the help of my friends," Sabi ko and he hummed.
