Girl Online

Chapter 11

Nauna na ako sa mga kaibigan ko umuwi, I'll just finish my work at home. Pero pupunta pa rin si Toby kahit na ayaw ko. I laid my things on the top of my dining table. Medyo may malaki ang condo ko dahil gift ito ng aking magulang, My sister designed the interior kaya maganda. I feel lonely here kaya pag uwi ko ay lagi ako nagpapatugtog ng music gamit ang vinyl player na binili ko last month. Linagay ko ang The 1975 vinyl because they're my favorite band and lighted two of my scented candles. I rested first in my couch while waiting for him.

After a few minutes of my nap, I heard a doorbell. I immediately thought of him, It was pretty clear to me he'll be coming here because he was kinda persistent. Sakto naman nang pagkabukas ko ay bumungad siya at may dala pa na backpack.

"Hey!" He cheerfully greeted. He was bringing a box, I assumed that it's a cake.

After the Sinulog Fiasco, his life became pretty much lowkey. I've heard less hate from him already and less issues about him. Maybe he learned his lesson about it. His aura became a cheerful one from a masungit, fuckboy type ish.

"Hi." I flatly said and closed the door and locked. We might get mobbed by his obsessed fans once they knew he's here.

"Hmm, what do you have here?" He said as he opened my freezer, some kitchen cabinets, and my refrigerator.

"Hey, stop that!" I suddenly said.

"I'll cook for you remember?" He said and chuckled.

"Fine." I said and sat on the counter.

"Great! You have salmon!" He said and got other ingredients and laid it on the counter.

"You're just gonna watch or you'll do some other things?" He suddenly asked while preparing.

"Uhm, I'll watch." I said and smiled.

"You won't do work or what?" He asked again.

"You sound so surprised, Toby." I laughed.

"Parang busy ka eh." He commented and smiled.

"No, I'll watch. I wanted to learn how to do Baked Salmon but I just can't figure it out." I said.

He shrugged.

Pagkatapos lumipas ng mga oras ay natapos na 'yung baked salmon. I was really excited to taste his cooking kaya umupo kaagad ako.

"Here you go!" He said and laid the baked salmon at the middle.

"I'll get rice!" I said and stood up. Kumuha ako ng plato at nagsandok ng kanin. "Ayaw mo ba?" Tanong ko.

"I'm fine." He answered.

Bumalik na ako doon sa upuan ko at inayos ang plato ko. I got a slice of salmon enough for me.

"Ayaw mo talaga?" I said pointing at the rice.

"I'm on diet." He said and smiled.

"Ako nga dapat laging may rice. But there's always an exception in other meals."  Saad ako at kumain.

Natapos kami kumain at inaya naman niya ako na manood. Marami daw siyang kwento na dala kaya magkkwento na rin daw siya.

"Okay, it's a bit late." He said.

"Ang tagal pala nating nagkwentuhan." I said laughing.
