Chapter 26

Heated Conversation

I'm still flabbergasted, halos hindi ako makahinga, ang tingin ko sakanya ay well okay, masama. She's beautiful but she looks like a threat to us.

Well guys, look! Girls tend to be insecured lalo na kapag may nakikita akong mas maganda saamin, mas matalino! In short, a lot better than us, Theo might find someone who's much more than me.

Binalingan niya ako " Oh, I remember you, you are the one who's with Theo! We crossed paths while jogging " she said, excited.

" Y-yes, I remember you as well"
You were the one whose stares creeps the hell out of me, the girl who's wore a sports bra.

Nagkatingan kami ni Kuya Troy, umiling siya saakin na para bang sinasabi na wag ko siyang kausapin.
Inangat ko ang tingin ko at naglahad siya ng kamay.

" I'm Chanel Johnson "

" Sapphira Villamoral "

And the awkwardness filled the atmosphere, umupo siya sa tabi ni Athea na kakadating lamang at masama nanaman ang tingin saamin.

" What is your work, Sapphira? " tanong niya.

" I'm a middle school teacher "

"Oh nice, teacher Sapphira " ewan ko pero parang nang-aasar ang tono niya.

" How about you? Anong work mo? "

" Actually, Colleague ko si Theo sa junior high noon sa California and then I migrated sa Paris, you know, fashion, the people and the art. And to answer your question, I'm a doctor. Uhm, Dermatologist " she answered.

That explains her flawless skin na hinahangad ko. She has blonde hair, I am a bit taller than her. Madami siyang alahas sa kanyang kamay at ang kanyang pananamit ay pang propesyunal.

" How about you, ano ang pinakanagustuhan mong place? " tanong niya.

I shrugged " The Philippines, my homeland"

" Yes I heard maganda ang Philippines, I've been telling Theo na pumunta kami togeth-- "

" Chanel please " singit ni Kuya Troy.

" Let's talk somewhere " at hinila niya si Chanel. She's complaining but it didn't do anything to stop her.

Hindi naman na nagreact ang iba at hinayaan na lang na hilain ni Kuya Troy si Chanel palabas.

I was but intrigued by them, kaya sinundan ko sila sa hallway at nakinig sakanilang usapan.

" Chanel, learn to limit your talking "

" I was just talking about sa pinagsamahan namin ni Theo, four years ago "

" You know that I know you shouldn't, " matigas na sambit ni Kuya Troy.

" Sapphira is Theo's girlfriend " he added.

" I didn't-- "

" Have some respect in front of her, if you think na okay lang siya about you mentioning something about Theo and you, well I tell you she's not "

" I was just entertained by her kasi she was with Theo, I thought that she's his close friend or something, I didn't knew na girlfriend siya ni Theo " laban niya.

" So you are using Sapph just to get closer to Theo? You are Theo's ex and if you still plan to communicate with him again, don't you fucking dare, masisira mo silang dalawa ni Sapphira, you'll-- "
