I did a mental face palm while watching Justin’s face light with amusement on what he was seeing..
“So, Peach I didn’t know na may tinatago ka palang pagtingin kay Cloud”
“Pagtingin? Anung pagtingin yang sinsasabi mo?”
Patay malisyang sagot ko.
“Bakit? Hindi pa ba pagtingin yang nagagawa mo nang magsulat ng Flames?” Nanunudyong sabi nito.
Justin leaned in closer to take a look at the notebook..
“Marriage huh?” Justin read aloud then, chuckled slightly.
“I dont know what Icel’s reaction would be, when I told him na mawawala na ang pinakamakulit niyang suitor”
My head whipped in Justin’s direction when I heard Icel’s name.
“Ano? Naku Doc Justin parang awa mo na wag mong sasabihin kay Icel ang nakita mo Ikakamatay ng kaluluwa ko pag nangyari yon.”
Justin’s forehead creased in mock confusion.
“Why? Don’t you want the whole Island to know your feelings for Cloudio?”
“Feelings? Anung feelings ba yang sinasabi mo. Wala kong gusto sa tuod na yon noh... Hindi kami magka level. At isa pa maaga kong tutubuan ng wrinkles kapag nagkagusto ko sa kanya. Nakaka stress kaya yang kasungitan niya.”
“Masungit si Cloudio? Kanino sayo? I really doubt that.”
“Yeah, He’s like that to anybody who dared speak to him.”
Justin shrugged.
“Well, You’re not just anybody, You know”
This time ako naman ang na confuse.
“Ha anong im not just anybody? Dahil ba sa kapatid ako ni kuya at girlfriend ako ng bestfriend niyang si Icel?”
Tumaas ang kilay ni Sienna sa huling sinabi ko.
“Oy Peach yan ka na naman, Isiningit mo pa talga yang pantasya mo kay Icel ah..”
“Ssshh.. Wag kang magulo diyan Sienna nag uusap kami ni Doc.”
From Justin’s expression he looks like he wanted to laugh or something.
(Tsk... Kainis ganon ba talaga kahirap na paniwalaan na balang araw mag kakatuluyaqn din kami ni Icel?)
Justin shook his head in mock frustration.
“Tell me Peaches, Anu ba talagang nagustuhan mo kay Icel at habol ka habol sa kanya? I mean I’m sure whatever it is meron din naman si Cloudio.”
“First of all Doc Justin, Marami akong nagustuhan kay Icel Kaya kung iisa isahin ko pa sauo ngayon baka abutin tayo ng bukas, At pangalawa, can you please stop calling Cloud, Cloudio? It’s a bit irritating.”
Justin seemed a bit taken aback with the change of the subject.
But then he smiled knowingly.
“What?” I said more irritated..
“Why can’t I call him Cloudio Peach?”
(Dahil ako lang puwedeng tumawag sa kanya ng Cloudio.. )
Muntik ko nang masabi ang mga salitang yon, But managed to stop myself in time.
But from Justin’s expression I know na alam niya kung ano dapat ang sasabihin ko.
(Ka badtrip!! Bakit ko ba kasi naisip yon? Ano naman ngayon kung tawagin nilang Cloudio si Cloud? Eh yun naman talaga ang full name niya diba? So it’s okay to call him that.. But why am i so worked up on hearing others call him like that?)
She asked herself.. But somewhere deep down somthing answered her.
(Because it’s like your endearment for him.)
(Endearment? At bakit naman ako magkakaron ng endearment para kay Cloud?)
She answered back.
(You know the reason why Peach..) The voice inside her head said
(No, I dont!!)
(Yes, you do, You just dont want to admit it.)
(Admit? Admit what?)
(That deep down you-------)
“Stop!” I said aloud then looked at Justin’s confused face.
“Ha? Okay ka lang Peach? Anung stop eh wala naman akong sinasabi” Nagtatakang tanong ni Justin.
Ngumisi lang ako at nag peace sign. “Hehehe, Ah...Wala, wala wag mo kong pansinin nababaliw lang ako..”
And maybe she was... really crazy.. Imagine kinakausap ko ang sarili ko?
(But really Bakit nga ayaw kong may ibang tumawag sa kanya na Cloudio?)
I thought in wonder
Ay nako tantanan na nga to kung ano ano kasing iniisip ko kaya kung ano anong naiimagine ko.
When I looked at Justin again he was grinning from ear to ear..
“I know exactly how you feel Peach...” Justin said with a hint of sympathy to his vioice then patted my shoulder.
Nagtatakang tiningan ko siya.
“Huh?”
Instead of answering he just smiled at me...
“Oo nga pala Doc Justin, Bakit wala ka dun sa party?” Pag iiba ni Sienna sa usapan.
“I was looking for someone.” Just then a girl with long black hair passed by.. “Oh! There she is! Sige una na ko sa inyo”
Before taking off Justin look at me one more time..
“Don’t worry Peach.. Malalaman mo rin sa takdang panahon.”
Then he was off running towards the girl who happens to be Kira.
Napakunot ang noo ko.
“Takdang panahon? Ano yon? Big Brother lang ang peg?”
I shook my head in exasperation..
“Grabe ang lalakas talaga ng tama ng mga tao dito..”
“O ayaw mo non? Bagay na bagay ka dito pare pareha kayong malalakas ang tama.”
Pabirong sabi ni Sienna, Pero bago ko pa siya mahapas ng notebook ay nawala na siya at tumakbo palayo..
I just watched her running away.. Because what Justin said really bothered me..
“Takdang Panahon? What does that mean? And why does it feel like all of them are hiding something from me?”
AN: I know Guys! Sorry Sabaw ang update ko ngayon... Wala talaga kong maisip kasi eh... Pasensya na pagtiiisan niyo muna babawi nalang ako pramis...
