At home Cha was wondering kung asan na *** flower na binigay sa kanya ni carlo. Well she didn’t wanted to keep it knowing na hindi naman pala ka ben galling yun, natutuwa lang siya that someone made an effort to gave her flowers. It was indeed a first time. She cant wait to tell the story of that memorable camping trip to Aria. As she was about to dial Aria’s number her phone rang. Its benedict

B: missed me? 

C: Grabe kapal mo, we just parted ways uhm 15 minutes ago.

B: Ouch hindi mo ko namiss? Grabe ka naman

C: ang kuleeet mo talaga, what now?

B: grabe ka naman nag good night lang naman ako. Sweetdreams

C: o sige na good night.

Benedict hang up. Gusto lang naman niya i-check kung ok na si Chandria sa bahay nito. Ang labo niya. Eh siya pa nga naghatid ng gamit nito hanggang sa loob ng bahay ng mga Tan. Weird…something’s wrong with him? He decided to text Julia.

Tatawagan n asana uli ni Cha si Aria when her phone rang again.

C: BENtong kuleeet ha.

Carlo: Sorry is this a bad time.

GUlat si cha, she knew it was Carlo on the other line

C: ahm no, sorry, akala ko kase si Ben. Whats up

Carlo: wow im amazed nagtatawagan pa pala kayo sa phone. That must be something.

Cha blushed. Buti nalang pala hindi sya nakikita ng kausap nakakhiya. For a while nakipagkuentuhan si Cha kay Carlo until her kuya came dala ang landline nila.

Kuya: shobe si benedict hinahanap ka di mo daw sinasagot text niya.

Weird, cha told herself.ang extra kulit ni Bentong…so she decided to cut the conversation with Carlo.

B: ano ba text ako ng text sayo ah

C: what bay un?

B: nood nga tayo sine bukas, sama mo si Aria.

C: emergency? Grabe ka Benedict Ilustre ha akala ko naman gano ka-urgent kung mkatanong ka jan. bakit mo naisipan manood ng sine?

B: nag-aaya si Julia (

gusto sapukin ni benedict ang sarili sa reason na sinabe niya, Hindi man nga siya ngkagana na makatext si Julia because he was so busy missing Chandria. He has no time to analyze wh he felt that way, he just crave being with Cha.

C: yoko tinatamad ako (When all she reall wanted to say was : I hate you go to hell take Julia with you)

B: KJ mo naman b..

C: B ka jan. ayoko ok. Kayo nalang ni Julia mo

B: haha selos ka naman jan. ikaw nga baby ko eh.

C: baby ka jan, ano naman kasunod na banat nun? Baby ako kase madame ako baby fats?

B: Uy sobra ka chandria, baby kase nga kita. Baby sister.

Chandria felt the twin tower crashing all over her. Akala pa naman niya baby in a romantic way na *** sinasabe ni benedict. FLOP.

Benedict starts to curse mentally. Tama ba naming sabihing baby sister? No, he should sort things out. Maybe he needs time think. He was never a gambler. Not when it comes to people he care. And Chandria was that. Someone he cares for. Now he’s not sure.

C: baby sister. Hay naku itulog mo nalang yan kuya bentong. Bukas nalang natin isipin ano gagwin.

B: natin talaga? Hahaha o sige na. benedict dreams hahaha.

C: nyenyenye. Bangungutin ka sana.

Chandria couldn’t sleep. Everything was so hard to digest for her mentally. She enjoyed talking with carlo. And she doesn’t know if she should deal with Carlo. How about Benedict? Benedict who is actibg strangel y since they got back from the hike.

Chandria was waiting for benedict’s text when she woke up. Usually sia ang unang nag-goodmorning kay benedict but she just didn’t have the guts to do it that morning.

She doesn’t realize na every 15 seconds ata kung icheck ang phone niya for Ben’s message. Until finally it beeped. She was kinda upset to see that it was Carlo.

“Good morning, can I have your beautiful smile to brighten my day my dear?”

Kinilig si Cha at the thought. Hindi naman siya rude and she thought wala naman masama sa hinihiling ni Carlo so she replied with a simple . Parang magic, parang energy drink, she decided to go jogging. 7am, ok pa naman para mag-jogging. She suddenly forgot na hinihintay niya ang text ni benedict. Iniwan nia ang cellphone niya and started jogging around their village. When she came back, weird she had 12 messages none of them coming from Benedict. It was depressing but Carlo again saved the day. He texted “please let me know you are ok. This is my 8th text, starting to worry and about to call the cops” She instantl answered “RLy sory bout that. Tnx 4 d concern went jogging. Have a nice day” 

She shrugged the thought na hindi pa nagttext si Benedict, thinking baka tulog pa ito. She took a shower and decided to visit Aria instead. Kinuento nia kay Aria what happened sa hike. And told Aria about Carlo,Aria was psyched about the thought na may bagong lalake sa buhay ni Cha,

A: I feel so positive about that Carlo friend.

C: Bakit naman? I mean its nithung serious.

A: I have a feeling carlo will be a susi to the achievement of your dreams.

C: ano? Ayoko yang aria smile nay an. Ninenerbyos ako haha.

A: wala naman sabi ko lang naman entertain mo yang si Carlo. Hayaan mo na si Benedict.

C: alam mong di ko magagawa yan. Benedict is all I have

A: But is he really yours?

OUCH. Chandria was hit by that truth. She looked at her phone. Dismayed that she has one text. Alam naman niya si carlo yun. Maybe carlo would say enjoy your lunch or maybe kinukuento nito ano lunch nito kahit hindi naman niya tinatanong, she didn’t bother opening it. Open erase. Memorize niya key pads ng cell phone niya. 

The deleted message was : GOOD MORNING B. (from Bentong)

Benedict just woke up from the silliest dream he ever had.

(Wehe ano kaya ang dream ni Benedict? Ano kaya ang mangyayari at hindi nabasa ang napakatamis na good morning B niya? Haha itutuloy)
