Unfriended

Chapter 59: Assurance

Nagtatawanan si Sophia at Shaqle nang dumating si Kent.

“Oh, Love? May nakalimutan ka?” tanong ni Sophia.

“Teka. Anong nangyari sa mukha mo? Sino may gawa niyan?!”

Nanatiling tahimik si Kent sa mga tanong ni Sophia.

“Tell me, is that Jake?”

She sighed.

“Kent naman. Bat mo pa pinatulan? Bakit—”

“Then, what do you expect me to do?! Ha, Sophia! Panuorin kong gumawa ng paraan yung gago mong ex para sirain tayo?! Nang dahil sa kanya muntik nang mapahamak ang anak mo!”

Nagulat naman si Sophia sa biglang pag-sigaw ni Kent sa kanya. Galit ang nakita niya sa mata ni 'to.

“This is bullsh*t!”

Napaiyak nalang siya ng padabog na sinara ni Kent ang pinto nang makalabas ito.

Kahit siya mismo ay natakot sa inasal ni Kent. That's not his Kent.

A far from his Kent.

Galit. Galit ang nanaig kay Kent. Hindi niya man gustong sigawan si Sophia pero upos na upos na siya. Sa ngayon, gusto muna niyang mapag-isip isip.

Inaamin naman niya sa sarili niyang nangangamba talaga siya na sa muling pagbalik ni Jake ay baka bigla nalang siyang mabura sa buhay ni Sophia.

He knew that Sophia still have the same effect on Jake. Ni-hindi niya masabi kung dahil lang ba ito sa wala man lang closure ang relasyon nila o dahil sa nangangapa si Sophia sa posibilidad na si Jake ang ama nang bata.

“Bakit kailangan niya pang bumalik?!” Asik niya

At this point, he cannot think straight. He's furious. Gusto niyang magwala.

That's why he call someone who can cool him down..

“Hey Ma..” pagbati niya sa kabilang linya.

“Kent, malapit nang maluto yung Adobo. May ipapadagdag ka ba?”

“Wala Ma.”

“Then why? Son, are you okay?”

“Seriously ma, I'm not. I am far from being okay.”

“Do you want talk about it?” may halong alinlangan sa boses ng kanyang Mama.

“Ma bat ganito? Natatakot ako. I'm afraid of losing her. He's back, Jake is back. At natatakot ako sa mga pwedeng mangyare habang malapit si Sophia kay Jake. Ma, I am so fucking frustrated. I don't know what to do.”

“Son, why can't you free your mind? Hindi ko pwedeng diktahan ang nararamdaman mo but Kent can you have a little bit trust to your girlfriend? Remember, Sophia is yours. Based on what your saying, you have a doubt that Sophia can bring Jake again back to her life.”

“Kent, make things clear up. Wag kang magpadala sa galit at takot mo. It will just bring you damage. And swear, you'll never like it.”

“Then. What will I do?”

“Accept whatever result happen. Dahil even you deny it, Kent you are very afraid to lose this game.”

He just sighed. He knows deep inside, his mother was right.

“I know. I am.”

“Ma I can't pick you up. I need to cool down a bit. Sabay nalang kayo nila Tita na dumalaw, mamaya. I will call her friends. Pambawi.”

“That's right. Tinawagan na ako ng Tita mo, papunta na sila dito just to pick-up some things and we will go there. Soon.”

“Okay, Ma. Ingat kayo.”
