This isn't Love

Welcome back dork!!

“Mga ginang at ginoo, matiwasay po tayong nakalapag sa paliparang pandaigdig ng Ninoy Aquino International Airport. Salamat po sa pagtangkilik sa Korean Airways”

 

At last, I’m finally home. I miss this country to death.

Kinuha ko na ang mga luggage ko sa luggage area. Hindi naman ako mahihirapan kasi isang maleta lang ang dala ko. Yung mga important belongings lang yung dinala ko at yung ibang gamit, dito ko na lang sa Philippines bibilhin.

At dahil summer pa rin dito sa Pinas, pero patapos na rin siya, ay ramdam ko na ang matinding pawis na dumadaloy sa ulo at katawan ko kaya pumunta muna ako sa restroom. Thank God it’s not full. Dali-dali kong hinubad ang jacket ko and ended up with a shirt. Also I remove my boots and changed it with haviannas ‘cause I’m wearing jeans, still feeling fashionista. After checking myself, I ditched the restroom.

“Hey dork, welcome back to your beloved country” a girl shouted and I smiled. She is now walking towards me. She’s still the same. Nothing changed.

“Tsk! I feel embarrassed. Ms. Ashley Collinson, can’t you just do “hi’s” or hello’s?” sabi ko sa as soon as nakalapit siya sa akin.

“Geezz. I ain’t mentioning a name here!! I said dork and not Becca, so don’t be embarrassed.” She said then hugged me. Damn! I miss this girl so much. Hindi kami nagkita ng halos 7 years though nagtatawagan naman kami pero still we miss each other. Iba pa rin talaga pag nagkasama na kayo.

“What’s with the drama Ash? You missed me that much?” sabi ko then naghiwalay na kami kasi nakukuha na namin ang atensyon ng iba. I saw her face and hell she’s crying!! What the hell, I’ve got a best actress friend here!!

“Stop crying Ash that it’s like we’re a couple not seeing each other for long years” I said then rolled my eyes. She just giggled and smiled.

“Nah!! I just missed you. For Pete’s sake Becca, 7 years tayong hindi nagkita, 7 long years” she mumbled. Dang!!! I know Ash but crap; we’re still here, at the airport. Can’t she just wait until we reach home?

“You’re too emotional Ash! Tsk. Anyway, do you have a car or we’re going to rent a cab?”

“I brought my car! Hassle pa pag nag cab tayo, tyaka dadaan ako sa drive thru para bumili ng pagkain natin” sabi niya then inaya na akong pumunta sa parking space.

Pagkarating namin ay agad ko ring linagay ang gamit ko at umupo. I’m too tired, naubos ata lahat ng energy ko sa byahe. Umupo na rin si Ashley sa driver’s seat, ako sa back seat para makahiga. Ang sakit ng mga paa ko dahil nag economy lang akong plane, medyo hindi ako sanay.

“Becca how’s tita and tito? Hindi ba sila susunod sayo?” tanong ni Ash habang nagdadrive. Crap, I envy her because she can drive a car. Me?? I can’t though I attended a lot of driving lessons but I guess driving is not really meant for me.

“They’re good and still busy with the companies. Sa tingin ko hindi sila susunod”
