Chapter 3

"Ginagawa n'yo rito?!" bulaslas ko nang makita ang tatlo kong kaibigan sa building ko!

It was just after my class ended. It was 6 pm already. Pauwi na dapat ako nang bigla ko silang makita.  Mga mukhang kaka-uwi lang din nila galing sa mga trabaho nila dahil mga naka-formal attire pa.

"Hoy Anelle! Huwag ka ng tumulala dyan! Tara na!" pasigaw na tawag sa akin ni Riley.

"Anong "tara na"?! Saan pupunta?!" I replied, slightly confused. "I still have readings for my class tomorrow!"

"Kakain lang tayo sa labas!" Riley rolled her eyes.

I gave her a skeptical look. "Hindi ba kayo makakain nang wala ako?! Nasa akin ba ang plato at kutsara ha?!"

Para kaming tangang nagsisigawan habang papalapit akong naglalakad sa kanila. They are all looking at me. Riley was scowling and Kara and Ace had a huge grin on their faces.

"Hindi ako sasama-"

"Libre ko!" Kara interrupted loudly.

"-sasama na pala ako!" I grinned.

Mahina niyang sinabunutan ang buhok ko. "Libre lang pala makakapagpapayag sayo, gaga ka! Halika na!"

"Anelle! You still have kwento to tell us!" Kara continued, bringing up the topic. "Balita ko rito, may naka-match ka na raw sa dating app. Ano? Pogi?" tinuro niya si Riley.

I rolled my eyes at them. "Chismosa ka talaga!"

We went to the nearest KFC kasi nag-crave raw ng chicken si Kara. Sa car kami ni Ace sumakay. I was seating in the passenger seat while the two is at the back seat. We were playing some music while Ace was driving.

"Ang mahal magpa-kwento sayo ha!" reklamo ni Riley.

Kararating lang ng food namin dito at magsisimula na siyang magreklamo. We started eating at hindi ako makapag-focus sa pag-kain dahil panay sila tanong! I'm ignoring them because we are still eating but they kept on bugging me.

"Ano na ba yan! Ubos na pag-kain ko, wala pa rin yung chika!" Riley grumbled.

"Teka lang! Tangina naman kasi!"

I started the chika. Sinimulan ko sa pinaka-una. The time when I got home and reading and answering my flashcards mentally. Then suddenly my phone beeps and I saw him liked me. Naging match kami and then we started chatting.

They are focusing at me. Akala mo ay may ikwinikwento akong sobrang seryoso! E chika lang naman yon! Masyado silang subaybay sa love life ko! Mga wala rin naman silang love life!

I grabbed my phone to show them a picture of Grayson. Just as I opened the app, my phone flooded with notifications—Grayson had been messaging me!

He's updating me now! Agad akong napangiti when I saw his message. Pinicturan ko ang table naming may plates na may pagkain at ubos na tsaka ko sinend sa kanya.
