"Ye, please lumabas ka! Kausapin mo 'ko!" Jeron shouted. He’s outside of Reyes’ residence and he’s totally drunk.
Alas tres pa lang ng madaling araw nang magising silang lahat sa sigaw niya kaya bumaba sila sa sala.
“Teka, sino ba yung maingay sa labas?” Gab asked na kalalabas lang ng kwarto habang kinukusot ang mata.
“Di ko alam eh.” Sagot ni Tin sabay tingin sa bintana. “Oh shoot!” Sabi ni Tin nang makilala si Jeron. “Camille, tingnan mo si Enzo sa taas. Pati na rin si Mika.” Utos nito. “Let me handle this.” Lumabas agad siya para harapin si Jeron.
“Sino ba yun?” Tanong ni Gab kay Diane na naiwan sa sala.
“That’s kuya Je. Ate Mika’s ex.”
“Ex?” Gab.
“Yeah, one of the people she forgot.” Diane.
“Anong ginagawa mo rito?!” Tin.
“Please ate Tin, ilabas niyo si Mika… I want to talk to her.” He said just like a beggar asking for food.
“What are you saying?! Are you insane?! Jeron, tanggapin mo na, wala na si Mika!” Tin.
“I know nandiyan si Mika. Alam ko na ang totoo! Wag niyo na siyang itago sa’kin!” Pilit niyang sabi.
“Pwede ba! Pakiusap, umalis ka na. Lasing ka lang, Jeron!” Tin asked.
“I will not go until you let me talk to her!” Matigas niyang sabi. Di na rin nakatiis si Gab at lumabas na rin.
“Pwede ba pare, nakakagulo ka na. You better go before we call a police.” Gabby warned.
“Call then! I don’t care!” Patuloy na pagmamatigas niya.
On the other side of the story, while the commotion is happening, Mika had no idea about that. She’s sitting on the seaside of their resort. She can’t sleep so she went out to breathe some fresh air.
Ilang oras din ang inilagi niya doon bago nagdecide na bumalik na sa bahay. Nang pumasok siya ng pinto, naabutan niyang nakaupo sa sala sina Gabby at mga pinsan nito. Hinintay nila si Mika nang malamang wala siya sa kwarto nito at di pa dala ang phone.
“Hey! What are you all doing here, guys?” Mika asked. All their attention is on her.
“Ate Miks/Miks!” They said in chorus sabay tayó sa kinauupuan.
“Where have you been again, Miks?!” Gabby. His tone is more worried than the last time, mixed with a little bit anger.
“Uhm, nagpahangin lang ako sa resort.” Mika.
“Why do you keep on going out without telling us? Can’t you see we’re all worried?!” Galit na sabi ni Gabby na agad ding lumabas sa may garden para magpalamig ng ulo. Napayuko lang ang mga pinsan nito habang siya naman ay naguguluhan.
“Uhm, I’m sorry kung nag-alala kayo, I really don’t know.” She told her cousins.
“It’s okay, Miks. Mauna na kami sa taas, matulog ka na rin.”
“I’ll talk to Gabby first.” Tumango lang sila at umakyat.
She saw Gabby sitting on a wooden swing seat placed on the side of their garden. Agad naman siyang tinabihan ni Mika. She looked at him but he doesn’t.
“Hey!” Di pa rin siya pinapansin nito. “Gab… sorry na.” Malambing niyang sabi. “Hoy, sorry na… ngingiti na yan, ngingiti na yan. Papansinin na niya ko.” Sinusundot sundot nito and pisngi ni Gabby.
“Ano ba, Miks.” Hinawakan niya ang mga kamay nito para matigil sa ginagawa niya.
“Sorry na kasi.” She said while pouting. Then it made him smile.
“How can I resist someone like that?” Gab pinches her nose.
“Like what?” Mika.
“Pouting like a cute baby.” Gab.
“LOL! So you’re accepting my sorry?” Mika.
“Hmmm… I’m sorry too… for shouting at you a while ago. Sobrang nag-alala lang talaga ‘ko sa’yo. Ang dami na kasing siraulo ngayon… Just like yung lasing na lalaki na nanggulo kanina sa labas ng gate.” Gab.
“Really? Kaya ba kayo nasa sala kanina?” Mika.
“Yup! Waiting for you.” Gab.
“Kung makapangkonsyensya naman! Pero seriously, thank you, Gab. I’m so, so, so lucky to have a friend like you.” Sinandal ni Mika ang ulo sa balikat ni Gab.
“Yeah right, a friend.” He whispered.
“Ano sabi mo?” Mika.
“H-huh? Uhm. I said I’m luckier to have you, Miks.” Palusot niya.
“Aww. That’s sweet!” Mika replied. “By the way, bakit nanggulo yung lalaki? Sino ba yun?”
“Uhm, just a passerby… sobrang lasing lang at napagtripang bulabugin ang bahay niyo.” Gabby lied.
“Ganun? Eh anong ginawa niyo?” Patuloy pa rin sa pagtatanong si Mika.
“W-wala.” Matipid niyang sagot.
“Wala? Eh pa’no—” Magtatanong pa sana siya pero pinigilan na siya ni Gab.
“Miks? Tama na, okay? Kalimutan mo na yun. Isa lang ‘yung taong walang magawa sa buhay. Ang mabuti pa, matulog na tayo.” Gab stood up at hinila patayo si Mika.
“Okay, fine. Mr. Reyes.”
“Hey! Stop calling me with my surname.”
“Why? Reyes ka naman talaga ah.”
“Ugh! Pareho kasi tayo.”
“Ayaw mo niyan para tayong magkapatid.” Pagbibiro ni Mika.
“Basta ayoko!” Naunang pumasok si Gabby, then hinabol siya ni Mika na tawang tawa sa reaksiyon nito.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
“Mr. Teng! Pwede ka nang lumabas.” A police officer shouted and opened the gate of the jail.
He saw Jeric standing near the information desk, waitng for him. He walks towards him.
“Pirmahan mo muna ‘to Mr. Teng.” He signed the release paper and went out from the station. They’re both silent until they reached Jeric’s car. Jeron broke the silence.
“I’m sorry, kuya.” He said.
“No bro. I’m sorry.” Jeric tapped his shoulder. He sent him on his condo then went home after.
