Zed mackenzie POV
"Hmm paoline steffani case"
Ayun sya ito. Pinindot ko ang friend request and she accepted it agad, online sya.
Zed: hi asan ka?
Paoline: labas hehe
Zed: okay ka lang?
Paoline: oo naman
Zed: ahh okay.
Hm hindi ko alam kung bakit ang boring netong kachat, pero interesado talaga ako. I keep on chatting her kung asan siya. Sometimes seen lang or it takes hours para magreply. Until 1 am i tried to keep up sa boring na conversation namin.
Paoline: dinideep mo ba yung fries sa vanilla ice cream?
Out of nowhere she asked me this and in a way na natawa talaga ako disoras ng gabi, she's talking about fries.
Zed: yes, actually i find them really deliocious.
Paoline: how about yung chicken? Are you gonna puta vanilla on it?
Zed: what?! Hell no im not gonna do that
Paoline: why not?
Zed: just because.
Shes weirdly interesting and thats what makes me more getting into her weird conversation deeper. She's having 3 am thoughts and its really weird. Weirdly interesting.
Paoline: Love is lust
Im a bit confuse but she has a point. I have this feeling to ask her why she would say that and she weirdly answers at the same time brilliantly. Parang walang sense yung topic pero may sense yung content which i kinda like it.
Paoline POV
"Love will always be just a lust!"
Sabi ko habang lumuluha ako sa kama ko. Hawak ko ang tab ko may kachat ko. He doesnt understand anything but still hes the only guy whos up talking with me with this nonsense things. He can keep up my weirdness in a way he makes me laugh while im crying. Actually this isnt weird thoughts at all this are all parts of my memories, kung saan hindi ko madiscuss sa mga kaibigan ko, pagod na sila makinig saakin. Di din naman daw ako nakikinig sa mga sasabihin nila, i thought he cant keep up knowing its really weird talking about dipping fries at 1 am but he answers nicely and quite funny. Actually the dipping is when i remember gray, he use to say i look cute eating those bizarre stuff. Im crying , crying that he appreciates even when i deep the chicken in the vanilla which this guys says kadiri. Still he keeps on the conversation though.
"I guess he really wanna have friends with me"
Im glad hes talking to me when i was about to take those sleeping pills to kill myself. Zed was there he didnt even know about it And i lived another day and survived the night.
Zed Mackenzie POV
"Pare nakakachat ko na yung babaeng hinahanap hanap ko sa bar, shes funny and really weird"
Lagi ko kwikwento si paoline sa mga tropa ko lalo na sa mga sinasabi niyang very weird. Naging close ko si paoline , shes this always funny , weird and insanely very interesting to talk to and i could use this kind of girl everyday. She enlightens me in a gery weird way. Para bang droga.
Paoline: san ka?
Zed: dito lang sa bahay ikaw?
Paoline: tara dito sa bahay ng barkada ko magiinom tayo.
Uy pagkakataon ko na itong makita siya ulit. I thought i would see the happy paoline but i was wrong. I was so wrongin everything, the happy world the weird worl suddenly vanish nung nakita ko siya lasing na lasing when i first saw her tears. When i first saw her cry. Hindi ko maexplain ang nararamdaman ko she was crying in front of her friends and me talking about this guy who broke heart. Nakikita ko kung pano magreact ang mga kaibigan niya they are so mad to that person and which makes me kinda piss off din dun. Kung sino man yun napakaasahole nya! But i remained silent while she cried and cried.
"Iwan mo na sya pao! Pera lang habol sayo!"
"Ginagago ka ng harap harapan"
"Ginagamit ka lang niya!"
"Gumising ka!"
But all i heard from her is
"Pero mahal na mahal ko siya"
I dont know if shes drunk or not but she held my hand and lock into mine so tight and hard. That moment i felt im in need. Kailangan ako neto. So i close my hands into hers. Eto pala ang totoong mundo niya ginagago lang siya at sinasaktan. Ayaw nyang umuwi that time, so eto na nga chance ko na din ito so asked her to go to a hotel if she wants. It suddenly hit me so hard when she said "NO im not for hotels"
Hinatid nila ako pauwi and im so speechelss i dont know how to say sorry sakanya, wait what?! Ako ? Saying sorry to a girl i asked going in a hotel?! Is that even me? Ang weird pero kinaumagahan i ended up saying sorry to her and i think i have to make it up to her.
Inaya ko siya maginom sa rooftop namin kung saan super open and full of stars the night was solemn and i think perfect place ito para sakanya since she mentioned about how she admired stars too.
This is always my drinking and smoking place. Gusto ko dito dahil tahimik. So i took her here and the first girl i took to my special place and i dont even know why. I feel so happy nung pagkadating na pagkadating nya she looked above the skies, her eyes are twinkling like the stars and i stood before her watching her explore her eyes in the night full of stars.
"Woah!! Best place ever!"
Sabi nya. Kumuha ako ng beer namin at naupo habang nakatitig kami sa mga tala.
"Kamusta ka na?"
"Eto ang sakit sakit pa din"
Sagot nya habang may halong lungkot sa kanyang mga mata. Nakatitig padin sya sa kalangitan.
"Alam mo ba na nakakabasa ako ng behavior ng tao?"
"Ah psych ka!"
"Oo, yan kasi ang inaral ko sa ibang bansa e,"
"So can you read me?"
She smiled.
"Of course zed, actually i already know who you are".
I threw a confuse look cause im a little bit shock sa sinabi niya and to think that i think she's really serious. She looks at me as if she knows my whole story. She explained
"You are an introvert, you like the word alone mapili ka sa kaibigan and very responsible ka"
I am really speechless i mean who are you paoline? Its like youre the mirror of truth that i cant deny. Although youre really attractive at your looks, no its not about the looks its how mysterious you are, makes me want to know you more. I smiled.
"Who are you?"
Those are the only words came out from my mouth and she sat there staring at me. Her eyes are still twinkling. I suddenly felt a little escape in this world, in my world of miseries and she ? She was my escape. I didnt know what to do i just felt like i want to kiss her. I walked slowly towards her. My heart beats so fast like hindi ko na talaga nakikita ang paligid ko siya lang.
"Can i kiss you?"
I whispered and the night was so quiet and perfect. Paoline i really like to kiss you right now.
