"YOU THINK I'M GONNA WALK IN THERE AND JUST FORGET YOU ACTUALLY TALKED TO SOME RANDOM GIRL WHILE WE'RE ON OUR FIFTH ANNIVERSARY?! WOW, YOU GOT SOME NERVE, JERK!"
"Abby, calm down. She's just a friend!"
"Calm down? Calm down? Ok. Here's what I'm going to do. I'm gonna walk out here and go to my room and lock myself in. Sounds great? Good. Ok, good night jerk." then she really did walk out.
Seriously I'm going to lose my mind now. If you had ever met a girl who's gorgeous and who loves kids a lot, who plays with your shirt and hates public display of affection, who doesn't really eat meat and obviously a vegetarian, go ditch her and don't ever look back. You want to know why? Because she's going to kill you. She's crazy and would probably make your life a living hell. I bet you.
Nakarinig ako ng balibag. Fuck. Not my suitcase. Napahinga ako ng malalim bago naglakad palapit sa kwarto 'namin'. Yup, that's actually my room--okay, our room, but I don't know why she claimed it to be hers at this moment. See? She has a problem with, I don't know, herself maybe.
I calmed myself down before knocking. "Abby, let's talk."
"Go talk to yourself!"
"Shit!" I slammed my fist on the fucking door. "Do you know how many hours I've waited to come home today just because it's our anniversary and you said you wanted to see me?! That's why even if it's so fucking far away from the States I tried to come home earlier this year! because I want to see you too! I want to see my girlfriend who I haven't seen for ages because I missed her so damn much! So please...just please hear me out."
"Explain it to me then." I heard her say. Her voice is weak but I could feel her presence just leaning on the other side of the door.
Huminga ako ng malalim. Fuck, how do I start? I didn't really commit a crime here so I don't know how to defend my side. "Her name is Krizza. We met in the States. She's the best friend of Terrence so we pretty much got acquainted because of him then she probably saw me and walks up to me and suddenly felt the urge to kiss me... Here's the thing Abby..." Shit. Holy Shit. I don't know how to say this to her. I feel like a total dipshit. Naisandal ko nalang yung noo ko sa pinto. "Uhm you know, in U.S, people out there think kissing their friend on the lips is just normal, I mean, like a greeting, know what I mean? So that's probably the reason she kissed me." I lowered my eyes on the floor. Just die, Nate. Please.
"You kiss people on their lips for a greeting? Wow, way to go,Nate. And thanks for the nice trivia you shared with me, really appreciate it. That is so cool."
Fuck. "Wait, Abby, please, let's talk about this. Open the door." I beg. "Babe..." She didn’t respond. Ten seconds had passed and still, nothing happened. I already accepted my destiny. I'm going to sleep on the couch tonight. That's good news, isn't it? Great. Absolutely awesome. Your first night after coming home was on a couch, that is very very cool. I was going to turn around and maybe go for a drink on the kitchen but the door suddenly opens up.
"Sorry."
"What?" she did not just apologized, did she?
"Sorry, I know it's not really your fault but I kind of taken it all on you. I'm such a brat." I stared at her. Her face is red. Which I find hot. Well, red is hot right? Okay, I 'll just shut up.
A smile starts to creep on my face. "Babe. no. Don't apologize. It's not your fault either. It's that girl's fault okay? Now will you let me in because I so badly want to take a shower and sleep soundly tonight?"
She looked up at me and I saw her sorry face. What now? "I threw your suitcase on the wall by the way. I'm sorry about that."
Hinila ko siya palapit at ikinulong sa yakap ko. "It's totally fine if you make it up to me." I chuckled.
"What do you mean?"
Inilapit ko yung bibig ko sa tenga niya at bumulong. "You know what I mean."
Inilayo niya ng konti yung mukha niya sa dibdib ko at tumingin sa mukha ko. "Go tell me because I have no idea." she said seriously.
I caressed her hair. "You know, have a really good night tonight by..."
"By what?"
"You're not really gonna help me on this one?"
"No. Just tell me." she's gonna laugh. Damn it!
“Come on,”
“Tell me!” she said half-amused.
I closed my eyes. "Okay! Okay! I want you to massage me tonight! God, I missed your back massage and I know you hate doing it because I sort of lose my focus but I promise I'm going to behave this time!"
She broke into a fit of laughter. "Oh my God."
"Okay, so we're done here. You're doing it and that's final. Now I'm going to take a shower first." I said seriously and go kissed her tempting lips just before walking in the room and finding a shirt and a sweat pants on my thrown-out-of-nowhere-suitcase, even though I won't probably need a shirt tonight.
