Ako pa ba?

Chapter Six

   
  
        "  Oh my God  babe. What am I gonna do?" tarantang tanong ni Maine kay Dean habang pabalik balik ng paglalakad sa loob ng kwarto nila. Nakabalik na sila galing sa mall.

      " What do you mean what are you gonna do? Will you please stop doing that you're  making me dizzy."  sabi ni Dean kay Maine.

      " About Rj's challenge. My God. I don't think I'm ready." sabi ni Maine na patuloy pa rin sa pagpapabalik balik.

      "  How are you not ready? You have so many songs in your laptop that you did. How can you say you are not ready?" tanong ni Dean.

      " Its not that. I know I have many songs in there but I don't think I'm ready to let Rj listen to them. Most of the songs there were for him. I made those songs for him as a surprise  sana when I see him." sabi ni Maine.

       " Oh yun naman pala eh. They were meant for him  so let him hear them.. He should be proud na you made song for him. Kahit ako I don't think you made me one pero its okay at least I get to hear them first before anybody else." sabi ni Dean  sa  kanya.

       " Oh babe. Of course I made songs for you but its a surprise. You haven't heard them yet." sabi ni Dei na naupo sa tabi ni Dean at humilig sa balikat ng binata.

       " Talaga?" masayang tanong ni Dean kay Maine.

       " Yes. Its my birthday gift to you." sabi ni Maine.

       Bumalik sa paglalakad si Maine sa harapan ni Dean.

       " What do you plan to do?" tanong ni Dean sa dalaga.

       " Honestly I don't know. What songs shoulld I play?" tanong ni Maine.

       " Why don't you just play the songs that you like and add some of Nico's song. You're songs were always the life of the party when you play them." sabi ni Dean sa kaibigan.

       " Okay so I'll select the songs that I like and put it in a playlist for tomorrow. That's it! That's what I'll do." Sani ni Maine.

       " And Rj wouldn't know that those songs were for him." sabi ni Dean.

       " Yeah he would be clueless." thoughtful na sabi ni Maine.

       Di na umimik si Dean dahil alam nyang nagiisip na ang dalaga.

       Sa labas naman ay nagkakape ang mag best friend na sina Nico at Rj.

      " Anong nagyari kanina bakit nakasimangot si Meng pagdating namin?" tanong ni Nico kay Rj.

     " Pano kasi si Mitch umiral ang pagka clingy. Sa harap pa ni Maine. Naiinis nga ako eh kaso di ko naman magawang bastusin. Sinira ang diskarte ko kay Maine. Nakikinig na sana sya eh." problemadong sabi ni Rj.

     " Binigyan na nga kita ng chance eh. Di bale may isang taon ka pa para mabawi mo ang lahat. Siguraduhin mo lang na magtatagumpay ka ha. Kndi sayang ang lahat ng effort natin na kumbinsihin si Mommy na payagan si Meng na umuwi." sabi ni Nico kay Rj.

    "  Oo, di ako titigil pre hangga't di ko sya nakukuha ulit.  gago kasi ako eh." sabi ni Chard.

    " Ano nga pala ang plano mo bukas?" tanong ni Nico kay Rj.

    " Naplano na natin yan diba? Nakontak na rin ang mga bisita. The bar will be closed for tomorrow night." sabi ni Rj.

    " Hindi yun ang tinatanong ko. Alam ko na prepared na ang lahat. Anong ipaplay mong songs bukas? Kakanta ka ba?" tanong ni Nico.
