When I opened my eyes, it was all white.
"Huh?" Okay, hospital
"Thank God you're awake" Steph
"Why I'm here?"
"Duh? Nung dumating kami para painumin ka ng meds eh hindi kana magising and you're burning"
"Aww. I'm sorry"
"Well, as usual. Jinn carried you and dinala ka dito sa hospital"
"I see" I looked around
"Umuwi na sina Gab and Christine last night because bawal siya mastress but nagiwan naman sila ng food. Ginamit ko nga pala muna yung credit card mo since kulang yung cash mo para sa admission" she grinned
"Okay. Thank you"
"If you're looking for Jinn naman, bumalik siya sa bahay nila because dumating yung mama niya and... kakarating ko lang rin actually" she smiled tapos when I checked the time, it's 9AM
"Fudge?"
"Yes, tama mga narinig mo and yes, kagabi ka pa dito. Kakauwi lang ni Jinn, siya nagbantay sayo"
"I should thank him, can I use your handphone?"
"No. You thank him personally. Babalik naman siya dito"
"What happen dun sa dresses?"
"Eh di post-poned" she grinned "Joke lang. Tapos na kami, ikaw na lang kapag okay kana"
"They can get my measurements naman dito"
"We'll tell Christine. Magpahinga kana muna please"
"Okay"
Then kumuha si Steph ng apple and while peeling..
"May nangyari sa inyo ni Jinn no? I mean, not THAT ha"
"Stop Steph, what are you saying?" tapos nagtawanan kami
"Teka nga" she chuckled "I mean, something happened sa inyo kaya hindi kayo naguusap yesterday no?"
"How did you know?"
"Well, diba? I ship you two kaya I can see kung may changes man o hindi. I always make sure na okay kayo tuwing magkakasama tayo and yesterday was, aaawkwaaard"
I laughed
"Ano na? Are you really okay with that fixed marriage?"
"Wala rin naman akong magagawa Steph kahit pa sabihin kong hindi"
"Eh sinabi mo naman ba kay Jinn na hindi?"
"No. Inisip ko na lang kung saan siya mas makakabuti"
"Bitch!! Bakit hindi mo sinabi? I'm sure gagawan ni Jinn ng paraan yon"
"Steph, muntik ng saktan ni Jinn daddy niya. I don't want that to happen! Lagi silang nagaaway everytime na we all cross paths. Ayokong saktan ni Jinn ang daddy niya."
"But, how about you? Kahit na hindi mo sabihin, I can see, you really love Jinn and..."
"And?"
"I want to say sorry"
"For what?"
"Eh kasi diba, you need to be admitted dito sa hospital, so, kinuha ko yung susi ng bahay mo from your bag and dumeretso ako sa kwarto mo and syempre. Binuksan ko yung dresser mo and..."
"Fudgeee.." I cupped my face
"I saw all those little notes na nasa isang dresser mo. I'm sorry, hindi ko naman alam na yun pala laman"
I laughed. So hard "It's okay" I said
"Ehhh there's something more..."
"What is it?"
"I asked help from Jinn and he also saw those notes.. I'm sorry I'm sorry..."
"Fuuuudge Steph! Can the hospital floor eat me like now?"
"I'm sorry. Ilan lang naman nabasa niya and I was shocked too nung nakita kong binabasa na niya"
"Omg Omg. I suddenly want to punch you right now"
"Please don't you're not feeling well pa.
"I'm sorry talaga"
"Eh ano pa bang magagawa ko? Gosh, I was planning to burn all of them pero naunahan na pala ako"
"I was curious tho~"
"Ano na naman ba yan?"
"It is still about that notes, bakit wala siyang date? I mean, if I were you, baka may time pa yun saka mga little comments. Yung sayo, andun lang yung nangyari like 'I saw Jinn, we talked, I think we're okay. He's sad' and 'Jinn walked me home tonight'"
"Because you don't really need specific time and date to feel something for someone"
She stopped peeling the apple and went beside me "aaaaaaah. I like that"
"Stop being cheesy"
"No, you have that side talaga" then she hugged me
"I know already stop hugging me"
"Okay" tapos bumalik na ulit siya sa pagpepeel ng apple.
I cannot imagine everything. Parang pinagtripan ako ng tadhana.
"uhmm.. Steph"
"If you're going to ask me about Jinn's reaction.."
"Sana... Well, if you want to tell me"
"Syempre sasabihin ko sayo.."
"And?.."
"He can't stop smiling. Simula nung nabasa niya yung ilan, hanggang sa makarating ulit kami dito sa hospital. He sat beside you he's smiling kahit na tulog ka and suffering from fever"
"I see"
"Kilig ka?"
"Konti?"
Steph is cackling. Like a crazy person.
"Now the only problem is that girl. Jinn should so something about her"
"But I don't want him to ruin his future just because of my stupid notes"
"I know Jinn will do something that will benefit both sides and I have my trust on him na hindi ka niya pababayaan and at the same time, hindi niya pababayaan future niya. Sa tingin mo papayag siya ng ganun?"
"I'm scared na baka may gawin siyang bagay na makakasama sa kanya"
"Like ano? Falling for you?"
"I did not even say that~"
"If you're always afraid like that, sa tingin mo ba magiging happy ka? Pao, I'm your friend and I wanted to tell you na don't be scared. You need to take a risk and try for it. There's no failure in life or in loving someone. It's either you win or you learn"
"I like that. Maturity at its peak" I said
"Thank you" Steph smiled
