COVEN'S POV
I brushed her hair with my fingers as i watched her fall asleep. I let out a sigh, thinking what've just happened earlier.
"You really have this habit of making me feel so damn worried, huh?"
Very accident prone since then and even before we become this close.. what a pain in the ass!
"Stay there, i'll fit this myself i'm a big boy now you know." Parang matandang utos pa ni Ciel, my 10 years old nephew. I raised my both arms in the air, surrendering.
"Okay, okay. Make it fast so we can still make it to your favorite restau." After i said that he then closed the fitting room's door abruptly almost slamming it!
Natawa ko't napailing nalang, "Damn kid."
And then leaned my body in the mirror behind me. "How boring." I mumbled at myself that's why i bring back the earphone to my ears to chill with some music.
"Saan naman kaya ang dalawang 'yun?" In spite of the rock metal playing, i even heard someone's whisper, sounding frustrated.
And i don't know what's with that, that called my attention causing me to turn my eyes on the direction where it comes from.
White plain tees, pants and sneakers. Kunot na kunot ang kanyang noo't halos magsuntukan ang kilay sa pagsasalubong. Her hair's kind of messy and tangled dahilan para mapanguso ako, pinipigilang sumilay ang ngiti sa aking mga labi.
Parang hinigit ang hininga ko matapos magtama ang mga mata namin kaya mabilis akong nag iwas ng tingin!
And where did i started checking other people, especially girls out? Wait, so i did admitted that i'm really looking at her, checking her out? What? No! What a load of bull crap.
But i can't help myself to took a glance on her once more only to find out that she's gone. Nanatili ang paningin ko kung saan siya huling nakita kanina. Where the heck did she go?
Am i only just imagining things?
Is she real?
And what the fuck is wrong with me asking these fucking questions!?
"So saan tayo mamaya?"
"Bar hopping? Race track? Video games? Basketball? What?"
"Again? Ah, lame!"
"What do you suggest then?"
"I don't know Mate. Sy, got any idea?"
"Wala din akong maisip."
"How about you Cov?"
"Coven dude?"
"HOY COVEN!"
"Shit! What?"
"Woah, gulat na gulat?" At nagtawanan silang tatlo. Mga ungas tsk! (-_-)
"Yung totoo, anong problema mo pare? Ilang linggo kanang ganyan! Nagddrugs ka ba?"
"Gago! Itutulad mo pa sayo Nike!"
"Baka ako, bakaaaaa Deim! Dream on!"
Hanggang nauwi na naman sila sa asaran. Parang mga bata! How and why did i end up being friends with them again? Tss.
"De eto, seryosong usapan na-- ano bang nangyayari sayo't nagkakaganyan ka, ha?"
"Oo nga naman dude. You can tell us you know, maybe we can help."
