Ang Girlfriend Ni Crush(UNDER REVISION)

Chapter 9

SI DUGYOT AT SI MONSTER

HUMINTO ako at hinarap si Akaizha na kanina pa maraming sinasabi habang nakasunod sa akin, hindi man lang napapagod dumaldal. Naririndi na ako. Badtrip na nga ako sa nangyari roon sa loob ng sports centre tapos ito't dumadagdag pa siya.

"Tuwang-tuwa ka kasi ayaw mo rin sa boyfriend ko!" Masungit na sabi ko.

"Right." She plainly replied. Hindi man lang tumanggi. "Sammy, alam mo namang support kita. If you don't like them, I don't like them too especially that—dumb, bloody fool, stupid, dummy, idiot Vice President! BUT!" She snapped her fingers and smiled. "I'm impressed to what happened back there. They were pretty savage, don't you think?"

I snorted.

"Ikaw lang ang natuwa sa kanila. Anong gusto mong gawin ko, purihin sila sa ginawa nila? They attacked my boyfriend." I pointed myself and emphasized..,"MY BOYFRIEND!"

"That was because your boyfriend is such an ass!" Malakas ang loob na sagot niya sa'kin kahit alam niyang hindi ko magugustuhan 'yon. Mas lalong naningkit ang mga mata ko. Umiinit lalo ang ulo ko sa isiping mas pinapanigan niya ang tatlong 'yon. "I can't believe you, Khail. Kilala mo naman ang boyfriend mo. Alam mong totoo ang sinasabi ko."

"Pero hindi 'yan ang point ng usapang 'to!"  She shrugged, giving me a 'then-what-look'. "What they did is not right! Tama bang sumugod sila ng ganon?!" Nagtotonong makatwiran na pagpapatuloy ko. Tumango naman siya na napipilitang sumang-ayon. I gritted my teeth and frustratedly looked around. "Akalain mo 'yon, pumunta lang sila dun para makipag-away. Akala niya ba hindi siya papatulan ni Steph dahil babae siya?!"

"I totally get your point, girl. I hear you. So, can we go now? Dahil gusto ko nang umupo, magpahinga at—!"

"She's too much!" I shook.

"Of course!" She mocked and annoyingly rolled her eyes. Inis ko siyang sinundan ng tingin nang may ibinulong siya sa'kin bago niya pa man ako lagpasan at iwan sa pwesto. "The way she gets on your nerves that much is already concerning, Khail."

"What?!" Naguguluhang singhap ko dahil parang iba ang gusto niyang iparating, iba ang pagkakaintindi ko sa punto niya. Sumunod ako sa kanya. "Concerning naman talaga, Akez. I think that dugyot is trying to get papansin. She's a threat! A stupid threat!"

"You feel threatened?" Nilingon niya ako para lang ngisian.

"Seriously, Akaizha?! Mukha ba akong may kinatatakutan sa lugar na 'to?!" Suminghap ako. Hindi ako makapaniwala na iniisip mismo ng kaibigan kong ito na nababahala ako sa dugyutin na 'yon. "Hindi mo ba nakita kanina kung paano siya mag-iwas ng tingin sa'kin? She can't look at me in the eyes! She couldn't even move. Why? She was petrified!"

"Exaggeration," she mumbled.

"I heard that, Ais. I'm not exaggerating!" Ipinasok ko sa bulsa ng blouse ko ang aking kaliwang kamay saka nagpatuloy. "Kung hindi mo naitatanong...that dugyot is just so—!" napahinto ako nang bigla siyang tumigil at lumingon sa'kin.

"...that dugyot is just so aggravating and all. She's making my day worse than ever. If bad day is a human, that is surely her. She can't blame me for hating her this much," pagpapatuloy niya sa sinasabi ko habang walang ganang nakatingin sa'kin. Wow. How did she know I'm going to say that? "Kung hindi mo rin naitatanong...I already memorized your line, Sam. You've been saying that for two months now. My gosh!"
