Chapter 3: Blue and Gray

Bleu's POV

"Because I am too."

"Totoo?! E bakit di mo sinabi sa 'kin? Edi nagkausap sana tayo ng matagal. Ano ba naman yan kababayan! Hahahaha" Natawa na ako. Filipino rin pala 'tong isang to. Coincidence!

"Hey, easy! Hahaha. I'm a filipino but I really don't understand your I mean our language. I grew up here. My mom's a pinay." Ang cute niya. May accent yung word na 'pinay' niya.

Half lang pala siya, but still he's a Filipino.

"Have you been to the Philippines?"
I asked him.

"Yes, when I was little. I haven't visited there since first year higschool, Mom's so busy and Dad doesn't know the country that much."

"Oh. Hey, stop here." Andito na kasi ako sa tapat ng apartment ko.

He looked at my apartment and looked at me. "You live here?"

"Yes."

"With Neil?"

Nagulat ako sa tanong niya. N-neil? Wait. Did he.....

"Did you taught Neil was my boyfriend?"

At di ko na napigilan, I bursted into laughter. Naiiyak na ako sa kakatawa. Did he really taught that? He must have been out of his mind.

He looked at me with amusement and confusion. I know he's feeling awkward now.

"W-why are you laughing?" Napapatawa na rin siya. Siguro nahahawa sa tawa ko.

I cleared my throat first. "Neil is a delivery boy. He delivers my food because they're store closes early."

He looked convinced when he said. "Aaah. Ha-ha. Sorry, I really taught Neil is some kind of live-in partner."

Napatawa nanaman ako dun. I miss laughing, I miss this feeling. All thanks to this guy--- wait.

"H-hey! Btw, What's your name?" Alam ko lang sa kanya e Mister White.

He removed my seatbelt and went outside to open the car door beside me. Gentleman he is.

Lumabas na ako. "Thank you."

He smiled first before he answered me, "You're welcome, Bleu. I'm Grei, btw."

Then he rode his car again and drove away.

Is it coincidence again that he's name is also a color? And what an awkward name.

'Grei White.' Lol

***********

"You wouldn't believe me. I just met a person whose name is as weird as mine."

"Who?"

I'm talking to Leslie. My bestfriend, she's an American. She lives just a few blocks away from mine.

Kinukwento ko sa kanya si Grei. I just find it amazing na I met a person who has a name from a color aside from me and my brother. My kuya is Alford Greene.

"Grei. Grei White. Coincidence right? I'm Bleu and he's Grei."

Mga ilang minuto bago sumagot si Leslie. Narinig ko pa siyang bumuntong hininga. What's wrong with her?

"L-les? Are you okay? Do you want me to come over?"

"N-no. I am fine B-bleu. Hey, uhm. I gotta call. I'll just ring you later, o-kay? Bye"

"Hey wait---" *toot toot toot*

Anong problema niya? E kanina okay pa naman siya. She was even joking around that maybe Grei is my s-soulmate.

Nevermind. Maybe someone really called her. Maybe it's important.

Tumayo ako from my bed and walked to the bathroom. I'm going shopping.

**********

"739.00$ Ma'am. Thank you for coming"

I just smiled at the cashier and went outside the shop.

I just brought a shoe and a dress. I miss shopping. Kung sa Pinas pa, siguro hindi na kasya sa car ko lahat and I would just call C-calvin....to help me with my shopping bags.

I sighed. Why did  I mentioned him again?

Naglalakad ako ng hindi ko napansin na may nabunggo ako.

Pag angat ko ng tingin, I saw a Living-doll. She's so pretty. She looks younger than me though.

"Sorry." Sabay pa naming sabi.

We laughed and I repeated my sorry this time it's me only. Nag 'its okay' naman siya tapos nag sorry din.

Ang cute cute niya. Yung tipong ang sarap niyang itali tapos gawing keychain. She has a straight hair that really suits her. She looks like a Filipini but she talks like an Anrican.

I asked her what her name is and she said she's Rhienne.

Magaan ang loob ko sa kanya. Maybe because paraho kaming shopaholic. After kasi namin magsabihan ng sorry ay inaya niya akong magshopping. Tutal pareho naman kaming walang kasama.

Ang rami niyang pinamili that we were assisted by a shop guy to bring our bags. Mukhang I found my younger version. I smiled to that thought. Wala kasi akong kapatid na babae. Kami lang ni kuya Greene. Hindi naman kami nagsasama pag magshoshopping and my kuya? He's a rockstar why would he go shopping with me? Masisira ang pagiging rakista look niya.

Namiss ko tuloy siya.

"Hey bleu, are you sure you're okay here?"

I smiled. Kanina pa kasi niya ako gustong ipahatid kay Russel daw. Boyfriend niya siguro. I don't know, he never mentioned who the guy is basta sabi niya kung gusto ko daw isabay nalang nila ako ni Russel.

"I'm okay Rhienne."

She smiled at me and said thank you for this day.

"Oh Russle's here. Bye. Gotta go."

May tumigil na kotse sa may unahan namin. Bigla na lang siyang tumakbo papunta sa sundo niya, she must be that excited to see his boyfriend. Lalapit sana ako para makapag bye kay Rhienne kaso may tumigil na na Cab sa harap ko.

Maybe next time. Bye Rhienne, my younger version. I laughed at the back of my mind.
