Dopamine Part 2

Chapter 5: Special delivery

Aiah's POV

"What??!!" Baste reacted after ko makuwento yung incident starting from the night sa bar.

"Jhoanna Manuel," Ay iba?? "Why did you let her go alone?" tanong niya kay Jho. His voice sounded calm, but you could hear he was worried.

Ngayon ko lang siya nakaharap ulit and I was actually scared to tell him kasi I know he'd react to it this way.

"Love," Jho held the arms of her Fiancé while her brows raised at me. "Sa tingin mo I'd allow her to go alone?"

"Hmm, ang busy niyo kaya." I replied with hopes to get away from them.

You can clearly see the disappointment on Baste's face kaya I curled my lips and tried mag pabebe effect sa kanya.

He took a deep breath and continued. "Ano pang magagawa namin eh nangyari na, Aiah?" he sounds more serious this time, nakakatakot pag ganyan siya.

"Lesson learned mo yan, Aiah. Pag yan inulit mo pa, makakaltukan na kita." he paused as if he was carefully thinking ano pang isesermon niya.

"Lagi ko naman sinasabi sa'yo, we always face the consequences of our actions." Oo na, Itay. "Kaya we should always think thrice or if possible ten times before natin gawin ang isang bagay..."

"...kasi you can't take it back once it's done." I released a deep breath as well. Hindi ako makailag sa facts ni Mr. Manuel.

"Tama, diba, Maraiah?" he paused to assure I was listening to him. Nakatingin lang kasi ako sa floor, feeling ko any time maiiyak ako.

"Tulad niyan, for the first time, you hurt Mikha... naka-seal na sa puso niya yun, she may forgive you but she will never forget that." what he just said crushed my heart. Bakit naman sampal na sampal tayo ng reality for today's video. Natuluyan na talaga yung luha ko. Grabe 'di na napagod yung mata ko kakaiyak, infairness ha.

I hate it na I look like a little child being scolded by her dad; I hate it kasi everything he says is true; I hate it so much kasi mas lalo ko lang naiisip na, I really can't take back what I have done, sabi nga ni Baste– nangyari na.

"Oh, don't cry na." he sat beside me and grabbed me for a hug. "I love you, andito lang kami lagi for you ano ka ba."

So... it's just a normal evening na the couple decided to have a movie night... with me. Third wheel pa rin ate niyo Aiah, kasi wala naman yung bebe ko. Teka, may bebe pa ba ako?

Sabi ko sa kanila they can do it naman without me, kasi maiinggit lang rin ako third-wheeling to them. Pero gusto na rin nila masulit na makasama ako. Sobra ko ring mamimiss yung ganitong bond namin. Siyempre iba pa rin pag lumipat na si Jho.

Plus, they are so thrilled rin to have a little break after all the hustle and bustle of planning their wedding.

"By the way, screw the space thing, Aiah. Astronaut ba kayo, at need niyo ng space?" natawa ako. "Trust me, it will not work that way. Allowing a gap between you two will worsen things." he paused. "Suyuin mo bago pa mahuli ang lahat."

I contemplated everything he said and I realized iba talaga yung perspective ng isang guy.

"Agree," napatingin ako kay Jho kasi last time iba naman yung stand niya.

"Hoy Jhoanna, maka-agree ka diyan ha." she sealed her lip closed and I jokingly rolled my eyes.

Well actually, two days na rin na breakfast, lunch, and dinner ko ang kainin ang pride ko para manuyo. It's one of the disadvantages being in this kind of relationship, bilang girl hindi naman ako sanay to do this, and gusto natin tayo ang sinusuyo, diba?
