Past or Present? (A Juan Karlos and Darren Fanfiction) [ON HOLD; EDITING]

Chapter 21: Pendant and Couple Shirt

Kristine's POV

"Please Bestie! Help me! I don't know what to buy!" I shouted at the phone.

"Hey hey! Please don't shout! Maawa ka naman sa tenga ko!" Anna complained.

"Sige na!" I begged calmly.

"Hindi nga ako pwede, ang kulit mo."

"O sige na nga. Di na kita pipilitin." I formed a sad expression on my face eventhough she can't see it.

"Okay. I have to go now, I have something to do. Bye!"

"Bye." She hangs up the phone. Hayy. Since I woke up, all I think is about my gift for him! Ugh. Kinukulit ko na nga yung mga kaibigan ko e.

They say that he's my boyfriend so it's my choice if what gift I will give to him. Argh. And that is my problem.

I can't think of anything. Pfft. Ngayon lang 'to. Ugh. Sad life. 😟

I'll just call Grace. Who is she? Me and Jk's childhood bestfriend back in Cebu. And actually, I don't know if she still use the number of her that I have in my contacts. Or I'll just try.

*RING! RING!"

"The number you have dialled is out of coverage area. Please again later."

Ugh. It doesn't work anymore. 😑

I might just call Sandy again. After few rings, she answered it.

"Hello? Bestie? What do you need?" She ask.

"Bestie, I need your help."

"Ano naman yun?"

"E uh, kasi we have planned an exchange gift for this christmas. Then nabunot ko si Jk. And the problem is, hindi ko alam ang ireregalo ko sa kanya."

"O tapos?"

"Bestie naman eh. Please?" I pleaded.

She sighed before she answered. "Edi bigyan mo siya ng necklace, yung may pendant na guitar. Diba marunong siyang mag-gitara? Yun na lang." She suggested.

"Sige. One more!"

"Hmm... Bigyan mo siya ng... Alam ko na! Magpagawa ka ng couple shirt ninyo, then yung sayo itago mo then yung kanya isama mo dun sa paglalagyan mo ng regalo for him." Ang galing talaga neto.

"E ba't ko itatago yung akin?"

"No, hindi mo talaga siya actually itatago. Pag binuksan na niya yung gift at nakita niya yun. Isuot niyo ng sabay yung couple shirt then mag-selfie kayo. Kung gusto mo, couple necklace na lang or personalized gift."

"OMG!!! THANKYOUUUUUU!!!" I screamed.

"Hey! Welcome welcome. But please don't shout again in the phone. You might broke my ear. Please?"

"Sorry. Ok! Thank you very much!"

"Your welcome. Bye!"

Okay, now I'm relieved. I know now what to buy.

I changed my clothes and went downstairs.

"Mom! I'll leave for awhile po. I'll just buy some gifts."

"Okay honey. Take care." I went inside our car and told Kuya Dom to drive me at the mall.

When I already went inside the mall, I already searched for a jewelry store. Then, I found one.

"Hello Ma'am. What kind of jewelry do you need?" The saleslady greeted and asked me.

"I need a necklace. Uh, do you accept personalized jewelries? Or yung parang palalagyan ko ng design o name yung pendant nung necklace?"
