Closing Time

Cydthealee

It's almost a week after our championship game and we seriously have not gotten any rest since that day. Hindi naman sa nag rereklamo kami, I just couldn't believe how we have been surviving these past days na almost 4 hours lang tulog namin every night. But we don't complain or say something about it. Above all, we're all grateful for this. We earned this and we're going to celebrate each and every moment that comes after it. Sa sobrang busy ko eh naging pabaya ako sa iba kong commitments.

Ricci Rivero: Cyd can we talk?

This text message flashed on my phone as I opened it pagkatapos nang guesting namin sa ASAP. For this day ito lang yung agenda namin so it is our first free day since nung championship. May mga naka set na na plans yung ibang girls for this afternoon at ako naman, I decided to just stay at home and catch up on some sleep. Napansin ko na 3 hours ago na pala yung text niya na iyon. So I quickly replied.

Sure. Let me call you when I get to the dorm. ☺️

I hit send and went on to catch up with the girls on the way to the coaster. 

Ricci Rivero: Alright, text me as soon as you get there.

Wow he's cold. I said to myself as I climbed aboard. Nakita ko na walang katabi si Carol so I quickly slid to her side. Pero just like me ay pagod siya so we did not have a conversation and instead we just tried to take a nap habang papauwi kami. The traffic burried us alive and after almost an hour and a half ay nakarating na kami sa dorm. Bumaba na kami one by one and syempre yung mga may lakad ay nauna nang nag ready and yung iba ay naligo ulit. For me I went straight to our room and just collapsed my body in my bed. Sumunod naman si Carol at Kianna na pumasok sa room.

"Ate Cyd no plans for today?" Kianna asked as she started to change her clothes.

"No gurl." I answered her as I lifted my head that was burried in my pillows. "Need to catch up with my sleep."

"Echosera ka." singit naman ni Carol. "If I know may date kayo ni papa Ricci ngayon."

Oh shit. Ricci. I totally forgot na gusto pala niyang mag usap kami once I get here sa dorm. And I guess na notice nila yung pagkabigla ko na parang may naalala ako when Carol said his name.

"Nice nice ate gurl." teased by Kianna. "Where are you guys heading to?"

"No wala." I quickly told her. "Nakalimutan ko tatawagan ko nga pala siya." I told them as I quickly went up to grab my phone inside my bag.

As expected may mga texts nanaman siya asking kung asan na ako. For the past days lagi ganito yung situation namin. I suck at texting people and keeping them updated about me all the time. Nawawala sa isip ko na may mga taong nagaalala sa akin every minute of the day. Especially ngayon na boyfriend ko na si Ricci, he asked me to be more informative to him. He wants to check up on me atleast every day pero minsan hindi ko nagagawa ito. I quickly went to his name and called him. But he did not pick up his phone. I got a little anxious by this.

"Oh what's the problem marce?" Carol asked immediately nang nakita niyang medyo napa kuno yung mukha ko.

"Hindi sumasagot eh." I replied to her. "Naka ilang text na pala siya di ko namalayan."

"Nako nako, LQ na ba this?" hirit ni Kianna. "Kidding ate gurl, baka hindi niya lang hawak yung phone niya at this moment."

Biglang nag ring yung phone ko meaning may nag text sa akin.
