The Good Girl Gone Bad (Completed)

Chapter 8

Christmas break is over and classes will resume soon. Ang bilis ng mga araw ngayon. Pero it's ok na-enjoy ko naman yung christmas vacation namin eh. And I must say, I've had the best Christmas and New Year. Kinikilig pa din ako hanggang ngayon pag naiisip ko kung gaano ka-sweet si Lance sa akin. I'm one lucky girl in this universe. Imagine, pinagkalooban ako ni God ng gwapo, macho, hot, mabait, sweet, caring, loving, pilyo, na lalaki. I'm so blessed and thankful.

Nasa kalagitnaan ako ng pag-mumuni muni ng tumunog ang phone ko, sinagot ko naman ito agad ng hindi tinitignan kung sino 'yon.

"Yes, hello?"

Mga ilang segundo bago nagsalita ang nasa kabilang linya.

"L-Les"

Upon hearing that voice, I stiffened. Para akong natabunan ng malalaking tipak ng yelo sa buong katawan sabay pa ang biglang panginginig ng katawan ko. That voice. It's been 2 years since the last time I've heard that voice.

"Les? It's Nick."

Hindi ako makapagsalita. Questions are invading my mind. I don't know what to say.

"Uhm how are you?"

"H-hi. I'm f-fine" sa hindi ko namamalayang sagot ko

"Well, it's good to hear that." sagot naman nito

Katahimikan ang bumalot sa amin. I don't know kung bakit bumalik pa siya. What does he wants? Hindi nagtagal binasag ko ang katahimakan.

I cleared my throat "Uhm, so how's life?" sabi ko to lighten up the situation

"It's good. I've been doing good. How about yours?" sabi nito

"Same" maikli kong sagot

"Ah"

Hinintay ko lang itong magsalita pang muli.

"Uhm, Les. Can we talk in person? I have to tell you something important"

Nangunot ang noo ko.

"Nick, if you're trying to explain to me everything, there's no need. It's in the past and lets ju----"

Naputol ang sasabihin ko ng bigla siyang sumabat.

"No, Les. You need to hear this please. I want to clear things out."

I drew a deep breath. I don't know what to say.

"I don't know, Nick. It's been two years"

I heard him sighed "Ok. I-I'll wait for your a-answer. I'm hoping someday you'll talk to me. Uhm, belated Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, Les. "

"Same to you. Bye"

And with that I ended the call. After 2 years, he's coming back. But why? What's his reason? Wala akong balita sa kanya and now babalik siya just to explain. Is he nuts? Akala ko ba he's gone for good? I don't feel hurt right now because I know that I've already moved on and I have Lance. I felt confused that's all.

"Penny for your thoughts?"

Nagulat ako sa biglang nagsalita

"Hubby! Kanina ka pa ba?"

He laughed "I just came. What's bothering you, wifey?"

"Nothing" nag-iwas ako ng tingin dahil hindi ko kayang malaman niyang nagsisinungaling lang ako.

"Tell me"

Napatingin ako saknya. Sumeryoso ang tingin nito. Ang bilis naman magpalit ng mood nito. Kanina nakangiti ngayon seryoso. Chow-chow lang? Hahaha.
