Between You & I (GxG)

Bonding

Jan’s PoV

Maaga akong nagising. As usual. Nag morning rituals muna ako and studies the room. Really. Kieff knows me.

OCD ba talaga ‘to? I wonder.

I came to the mini kitchen nearby and cook simple sunny-side-up and toast a bread of three. Sa fridge, may skimmed milk narin. I just heat this since I will never eat hotel food service. Ewan ko ba. Kaya hindi talaga ako pwede sa overnights e. Buti nalang wala akong kaibigan.

I ate in peace and my phone had Krull’s message.

{Good morning. May food ba na hinanda si Boss Kieffer jan o dalhan kita?}

I unconsciously smiled.

Isn’t she so caring?

Kagabi palang nag wiwiggle wiggle na yung dibdib ko sa pinag gagagawa nya and I don’t think its even appropriate. Its not like I’m a homophobe pero I don’t think its right to like Krull’s kindness. Babae sya at ako rin. Very wrong.

{Kieffer had everything complete. Thanks with the help.}

Pumunta nako sa CR at ayun, naligo na since 1-2hrs ako kung maligo. Para maaga makapunta sa burial.

Pagkatapos ng ligo na umabot pa ng tatlong oras, nakita ko na may text na si Dylan.

{Sunduin ba kita?}

I replied {Wag na. I’m on my way} Para hindi narin magpumilit.

I came into my car and seats at the drivers. Dylan and Krull’s keister rides my baby that I even disallowed Kieffer to do.

I revved up the engine and starts my journey back to the ancestral.

Pero nung nandun nako, nakita ko si Krull and the girl that I knew her mom, with a bag at paalis na yata. I jumped down my car and walked to them. “Good morning everyone. Leaving?” I asked hoping na hindi madaldal yung Mama ni Krull para less talk ako.

Unang lumingon si Mrs. Otazu. Parang nagulat nung nakita nya ako.

“Janhae.” then it was a very excited Krull. “Uh, yeah. Ikinuha kami ni Tita Emelda ng bahay sa bayan. Dun muna kami since we will stay here in a month.”

“Me too.” I answered trying to sound not excited at the idea. Hindi ko nga alam bakit ako na excite ee.

“Great. By the way, she’s my Mother, Kris. Mom, this is Janhae, my ex boss.”

“Anak, dyosa sya.” yun yung una kong narining sa mama ni Krull at di ko alam bakit ako nakaramdam ng hiya. Sanay naman sana ako.

“I know Mom. A demi-God.” sabi ni Krull at di nalang ako nagsalita. “And she said thank you.” mas lalo pa akong nahiya nung sinabi ni Krull yan.

“Th-thank you.”

“OMAYGAD ANAK ANG KYUT NYA NAGBLUSH.” I never been this awkward scene before kaya hindi ko talaga alam irereact ko.

“Ma anuba hindi yan loro na lulundag ka sa saya kapag nagsalita. Syempre mag ha-Hi ka muna that’s how you start a conversation.” sabe ni Krull sa mama nya. Napatawa nalang ako ng mahina.

“Hello Mrs. Otazu.” Janhae anuto. Bakit ka nag start ng conversation? Ikaw parin ba to?

“Hello, I am Ms. Asuncion.” sabi ni Mama ni Krull at feeling ko napahiya ako onti dun..Malay ko ba.

“Sorry.”

“Jan.” and that was Dylan. “Let’s go inside. Mom is waiting.” ngayon ko lang na classify ang bastos sa hindi. When Dylan meets Krull. He grab me at my wrist at nahiya naman ako kay Ms. Asuncion at Krull kaya nag bow nalang ako sa kanila.
