Chapter 4
The next morning i woke up late. Sira ang plano kong magswimming before mag sunrise. I peeked at the beds beside me. Si Kylie tulog pa rin pero sina JAM at Meg wala sa sa higaan nila. Bumangon ako and i feel a sudden throbbing pain in my head. Ouch. My head aches. Hang over siguro to. Nakailang baso ba ako kagabi? Hindi ko na matandaan. Pero may naaalala akong fragments of scenes na nangyari kagabi. But hindi malinaw. I massaged my head.
“Masakit ang ulo mo ano?” I heard JAM’s voice. She was in the bathroom pala kanina.
“Yes.. What happened last night? It was such a blur.” I said while massaging my head.
“Last night? Hindi mo maalala?” she’s looking at me as if I’m crazy.
“Ah. Duh.” I said. Magtatanong ba ako kung naaalala ko.
“Then you should watch the video na lang. Mas mabuti na yun kasi hindi ka naman naniniwala sakin kapag ako ang nagsasabi e.”
“Nanunumbat ka? Haha. Kfine. Nasan ang video?”
“Ayan sa isa pang sleepyhead. Lasing yan kagabi e. Yung pagvivideo ang napagtripan.” She said while smiling at me.
I looked at Kylie. She’s still sound asleep.
“I need coffee.” I said to her.
Magkasama kaming lumabas ng kwarto at dumeretso sa resto. I ordered black coffee while JAM ordered her pancake and juice.
Npahawak ulit ako sa ulo ko. Ang sakit e.
“Here he is.” –JAM
“Huh?”
“Goodmorning.”
Napalingon ako. Jake is satnding behind me. He’s in black sando ang shorts plus flip flops. He smiled. Geeesh. Early blessing.
“Hi.” I said.
Umupo sya sa tabi ko.
“Tulog mantika. Anong oras na oh?” he said.
“Sorry ha. Di ko naman alam na may guardia sibil pala dito na nakabantay sa oras ng gising ng mga tao.” I said to him. While rolling my eyes.
He smiled and looked at JAM.
“Hang over.” JAM said to him.
“Aaaaah. Ang lakas kasi ng loob uminom mahina naman pala.” He said.
“I can’t even remember what happened.” I said absent mindedly.
“Maligo ka mamaya sa dagat after breakfast para mahulasan.” He said.
“Later.”
After kong ubusin ang kape ko, nagpaalam na ako sa kanila. Bumalik muna ako sa room namin para maligo at magbihis. Kylie just woke up nung bumalik ako. She’s complaining of her headache. She also asked me kung anong nangyari pero sabi ko di ko alam.
“Teka. You had a video daw. On your phone.” I said nung maalala ko yung sinabi ni JAM.
“I have?” she asked
“Yes. Sabi nila.”
I entered the bathroom dala ang damit ko. When i got back, Kylie is already watching the videos in her phone.
“Uy. Can i watch too.” i said.
She looked at me.
“What?” i asked suspiciously.
