Patayin Sa Sarap Si Barbara (R18) [ON HIATUS]

Chapter 8

°BARBARA°

You and Tristan Lamsen are now friends.

Luckily, there is a green light beside his name. Meaning he's online as of the moment. I was about to click 'send wave' when I saw that his typing. Hinintay ko nalang ang pagsend niya ng message. It's better and safe kapag siya ang unang nag-approach.

Hi?

Hindi ko muna sinagot ang chat niya. Baka isipin niya ay talagang hinihintay ko siyang magchat. I've waited for a minute before I replied back.

Hello :)

Damn. You replied back.

Bakit naman hindi?

I thought you'll just ignore my message.

Really? Why?

You're so damn beautiful para pansinin ang tulad ko.

No, not really. Hahaha.

So how are you?

Nag-isip muna ako ng magandang isagot na pwedeng maging way para magkita kaming dalawa. Binitawan ko muna ang ipad ko at sumandal sa headboard ng kama. I was in the middle of thinking when my ipad beep.

You there?

She's really into me huh? Let's see if he can win this game.

Actually...

Actually what?

I'm not fine.
I am so depress tonight.

Your number please.

Why?

Just give me your number.

09468431150

Wala pang isang minuto ay biglang nagring ang phone ko. It took me a couple of rings before I pick up the call. I clear my throat bago ako magsalita.

"H-hello?" Walang sumasagot sa kabilang linya. All I can hear is the wind coming from the fan.

[Barbara] Nagulat ako ng bigla siyang sumagot. Napakalamig ng boses niya. Lalaking-lalaki ang dating. He's giving me goosebumps. Some other girls could fall in love with him just hearing his nice voice.

"T-tristan is this you?"

[Yes I am. Why such a beautiful lady like you is depress?] Napakagat naman ako ng labi ng sabihin niya iyon. Naglakad-lakad ako sa kwarto hanggang sa tumigil ako sa veranda. I open the glass wall there and sat on the wooden chair.

"I don't know.. It's j-just that.. It's just t-that lagi nalang akong mag-isa." Sinadya kong palungkutin ang boses ko. I'm always mesmerize seeing the city lights from here. Malamig ang hampas ng hangin na damang-dama ng buo kong katawan. And then, I started to cry para mas kapani-paniwala.

[Shhh. Stop crying please? I don't want to hear you crying.] Kahit naririnig ko lang siya I can see that he's really worried about me. How come na ganoon nalang ang pag-aalala niya sa akin eh we just met a few minutes ago, at sa chat lang. Mga lalaki nga naman.

"B-but I can't h-help it." Mas lalo kong nilakasan ang pag-iyak ko. Fuck, tawang-tawa ako sa ginagawa ko.

[Come to my house, I will make you happy.] Nagningning ang mga mata ko ng marinig ko 'yon. But what if may mga bantay siya? He's one of the elites and his name is listed in Billionaires league. Kailangan kong magdoble ingat this time. Limitado lang sa sampu ang tyansa ko. Isang maling galaw ko lang, sira lahat ng pinaghirapan ko ng sampung taon. Kailangan kong makasigurong wala siyang kasama sa bahay.
