Chapter 68

Property of Grasha_Maldita

Tanghali na ako gumising at kaagad akong nagbihis para sa meeting naming apat dito sa RWM. Before leaving my place, I texted them about the exact meeting place at papunta na ako ngayon sa St@rbuck$.

" Hey you're late! " sabi ni Nelly na nakapostura pa ng upo. Nelly is really beautiful right now. Balita ko sa kanya ay may fiancée na ito ngunit hindi pa pinakikilala ng mga magulang. Arrange marriage is the right term for that. I just smiled at her then sat beside her. Well, that's the only vacant chair so obviously, that's mine.

" Sorry guys! You know ... writing! ", nagkibit-balikat nalang ako habang sinasabi iyon. I also took a sip on the drink in front of me. I told them to order a Frappuccino for me.

Napa-iling nalang ang mag-asawa.

" Anyway guys, we're going to tell you something ... ", Guzman said with his excited smile. Napatango lang kami ni Nelly samantalang nakangiti naman si Mica.

" Our house is actually finished and we're going to move there by next week! ", he smiled and hugged Mica on the side. Wow!

" Congratulations! ", Nelly said then stood up to hugged them. We are so happy to the both of them.

" So great so when will be the blessing ... Of course we don't want to miss it! ", I said excitedly.

" Hmm --- maybe by next week then ", Mica answered.

They are so happy. Nasabi ko na bang buntis na si Mica and they're having a baby after 7 months. I thought kami ni Guzman ang magkakatuluyan but really, I was wrong dahil sila talaga ni Mica ang meant to be and I'm so very happy for them. Teka? Naisip ko bang kami? Oh no ... not a chance. They love each other very much. They are good persons so obviously they'll be the best parents for their children. I'm glad for being part of their lives and I really cherish every moment with them because they are my family.

Kahit na may kanya-kanya na kaming buhay at pinagkaka-abalahan ngayon, masasabi kong matatag pa rin ang samahan namin. Kahit sobrang busy sa work, we have time to be with each other. This is really what friends for. Always being there no matter what and be yourself. No lies, no hurt, no fool ... just you.

Pagkatapos naming bumili at tumambay sa St@rbuck$ ay dumiretso kami sa isang mall. Nakisakay lang ako kay Nelly, kasi naman wala akong sasakyan. Sina Mica and Guzman owned a car kaya sinusundan lamang namin ang sasakyan nila. Then for about 30 minutes ay narating rin namin ang mall. We went in and out for some several boutiques that we saw on the first floor hanggang sa makarating kami sa third floor.

That was 3 in the afternoon when we decided to eat a snack in a fast food chain. Nelly's treat so I'm happy because once in a blue moon when she really treats. I ordered a burger, fries, shakes and a salad. Then while eating, we chit chatting, we're laughing and talking about weird things, you know ... I miss this ... I miss being with them.
