“Ayoko na” I declared. “Pagod na ako.”
He stopped, too. “Ako rin eh. Kain tayo?” he suggested.
“Hmm… sure!” gutom na rin naman ako. “Saan tayo!”
“Ako bahala!”
Royale Dish Resto.
Name ng restaurant na pinasukan namin.
Actually, hindi ako kumakain sa pangmayayaman na resto, ilan lang. And this one, hindi ko kilala.
“Hoy” bulong lang. “Masarap ba dito?”
Ginaya niya naman ako. “Hindi ko rin alam, eh”
“Ano!”
“Joke, oo naman. Syempre!”
We got our orders. Special dish for today at parang ayokong kainin kasi baka hindi gusto ng panlasa ko.
“Bakit hindi ka pa kumakain?” tanong niya. Halos maubos niya na yung food niya habang sakin di ko pa ginagalaw.
“Masarap ba talaga?” panghihinging linaw ko.
“Oo nga.” He got my spoon at acting na susubuan ako. “Here!”
Corny nito. “Ok, ako na” at sinimulan ko na ngang kumain.
He’s right, absolutely. Sarap nga ng in-order namin.
“Sabi ko sayo eh.” Paulit-ulit na sabi niya.
“Oo na nga eh, kulit mo ah.”
Nag-ikot-ikot kami at naglaro ulit. Lazer extreme naman kami.
Pagkatapos. Bumili kami sa ice cream stall. Malaki yung ice cream kaya ang sarap kainin.
Gabi na and I need to go home.
“Uwi na ako” I said.
“Hatid na kita.” He insisted.
“May kotse ka?” gulat ko. Kasi kanina kasabay lang kami kay Josh.
“Oo, I texted my p.d.”
“Wag nalang.”
*Beep beep*
Nagpark sa harap namin ang isang black car.
“Hindi, sige tara!” he pulled my hand. “Sorry!”
I got in his car he then, get in too.
Parehas kami sa back seat.
“Hindi ako marunong mag-drive eh” he confessed.
I start giggling. “Talaga!” lumakas pa yung tawa ko.
“O ayan may pang-asar ka na sakin” he said parang na-insulto.
“Di naman.”
“But I made you laugh.”
Napatahimik naman ako.
SILENCE
SILENCE
Hanggang sa maka-uwi na ako. Pinagbuksan kami ng pinto ng personal driver niya.
“So? Friends?” he held a shakehand.
Napag-isip-isp ko tuloy kung… nevermind. Sige na nga. “Friends” and I held my hand, too.
“Good night!” he got in the car again.
“Night.” Pumasok na ako sa bahay.
I heard his car’s engine and then, gone. Mom is not at home, may note naman sa refrigerator that they’re gone for two weeks. Allowance ko daw nasa room ko. Okay. As usual.
