Three years ago,
"Dude! This is J right?"
"Hmm. Lemme see."
"See? It's the same as your phone wallpaper. J's here dude. Go see her!"
"Are you blind Sean? Si Tita Jenine to. Her mom."
"Oh."
"Yeah. Oh."
"Not really tho, I got tickets. You're coming with me."
.
Minsan nagsisisi rin ako na may roommate ako eh.
Eto ha. Diba nga unico hijo ako? Kahit na marami akong pinsan at kaibigan at the end of the day mag-isa parin naman ako sa sarili kong kwarto.
Ngayon ko lang naappreciate yung solo kong kwarto nung wala na.
Ikaw ba naman may roommate na daig pa babae sa kaartehan at kachismisan. Dalawang oras ba naman sa banyo?
At ito ha, isang linggo palang kaming magkakilala pero alam na niya agad kung sino ako noon. Kilala na niya si Marlo Mortel. Napagkonekta din niya kung sino ba si J na kinwento ko nung unang weekend na nalasing kami.
Hay, kung di lang talaga siya masayang kasama.
.
And that's where Hann found himself inside a place so familiar to him. Yet now he wanted to run away from here.
"Dude. Stop squirming. Imma lose my street cred hanging with you."
"You don't have a street cred."
"Hey!"
"Marlo!" Damn.
"Tita Gidget! Hi!"
"Dude."
"Ay oo. Eto pala si Sean. Roommate ko. Siya din nagdala sakin dito."
"Kala ko hinahanap mo siya eh. Hello Sean, is he bullying you? He used to do that to everyone before."
"Well how about you tell me things this guy did before and we go inside so he can meet J's mom."
After the show, we all hung backstage. Tita Gidget and Sean are exchanging embarrassing stories about me but I don't care. My palms are sweating and my knees are shaking like crazy.
Makipagkita ka ba naman sa nanay ng babaeng iniwan mo diba?
Hay buhay.
"What brings you here?" Bati niya sakin. Nasa likod ko siya pero alam ko na agad boses ni Tita Jenine.
"Uhm, great show po. At tsaka this is Sean, roommate ko. Siya nagdala sakin dito."
"If you're looking for Jea -"
"Uh hindi po. Uhm I just wanted to say hi po. Sige po." I pulled Sean away.
"Dude." He pulled his hand away. Ugh. Bakit ba kase kaibigan kita.
"It was so nice meeting you, namiss kita ah." Tita Jenine pulled me in a hug.
Jusko.
May binulong siya.
"You've changed."
I immediately pulled away and shoot her a panicked questioning glance.
"For the better Marlo. And see you okay? See you."
