The Bitter And The Bad Boy

Chapter 44: Im A Mess

"SUMMER!!"

napabalikwas akong bigla sa lakas ng bunganga ng tumawag sa pangalan ko. For sure, si Charlie yun.. nakasandal kasi ako dito sa bintana ng bus nang naka-earphones habang nakikinig sa kanta ng Cimorelli na I'm A Mess 'im a mess, around you there's no way out of this..' aba'y talagang sinakto pa eh ano.. tapos sakto pang half-asleep nako dahil sa pagod tapos sinigawan pa ako. Aba't kaibigan ko ba talaga toh o ano??

"Oh? Ano ka nanaman dyan??" tanong ko sa kanya ng medyo naka-simangot dahil nasisilaw ako sa ngiti niya (OA mo bes ah..) habang dala-dala niya ang dalawang bag niya

"Sum.. anong nangyari sayo?? Bakit- ba-bakit? Nakalimutan mo na ba agad ako? Nakatulog ka lang nagka-ganyan ka agad? Hindi ganun Sum.. hindi ganun.."sabi ni Charlie ng pagka-oa oa dahil nag-eemote pa na parang iiyak na siya.. tsk! Masyado talagang ma-drama 'tong isang toh..

"Tigilan mo na nga ako, Charls!"page-exclaim ko sa kanya ng katamtaman habang inaayos ang pwesto ko tapos akma ko na ring kunin ang bag ko..

"Teka.. andyan na ba tayo??"tinanong ko sa kanya ang pinaka-obvious na sagot sa lahat, habang kinakandong ko ang bag ko, she scoff at me playfully sabay ngisi.. alam ko na sasagot ng isang toh

"Nope, we still haven't got back. Isn't obvious?"tanong niya naman sarcastically sakin, i know right? Ang sama niya na sakin ngayon.. -_- (OA..)

"Tsk, tama na nga yang kalokohan mo. Move, bumaba na tayo.." sabi ko naman kay Charlie habang tinatabig ko sya sa tabi. Playfully. Tumawa naman siya in reply tapos ngumisi naman ako sa kanya triumphantly..

"How dare you woman!"sabi niya sabay takbo papunta sakin bitbit ang baby pink backpack niya while wearing her pink oversized hoodie, black skinny jeans and white low-cut converse having her hair on a two braids, wait. Grabe, ang contrast ng suot namin sa isa't isa ah.. because im wearing a brown oversized flannel, black jeans with ripped on the knees, black low-cut converse just having my hair down.. with my military bag

Tumakbo rin ako papalabas ng bus, seeing that the bus is already deserted and i could already act foolishly and not beast mode in front of my friend.. nang makababa na kami ng bus.. i didn't look in front to see who's coming.. kaya bumangga akong bigla sa halata namang matangkad at well built na tao, na pa-atras ako at muntikan ng mawalan ng balance at matutumba sana kay Charlie, who is the one that is chasing me and in my back, if she doesn't have an alert stance and.. that's the problem with letting your guards down. Pagtingin ko kung sino ang nakabangga ko.. nakita kong si, Dave na nakasuot ng black sweatshirt, grey sweats, gucci slippers with a black baseball cap on, wearing the most mischievous smirk ever..

"Playing around.. aren't we?"tanong niya playfully na ikinasimangot ko naman at ikinataas ng kilay ni Charlie, i gathered myself and stand up straight in front of him

"..And so?"tanong ko sa kanya ng pataray at para bang tine-test siya, he faked a shock expression thinking i was kidding with him (but the truth is i partially do..)

"But.. but i thought we were- we were friends??"tanong niya na para bang shooked na shooked siya sa reaksyon ko, i just rolled my eyes at his failed attempt of being somehow a look alike of Neil na Ikina-snicker naman ni Charlie

"Abnormal ka talaga, Dave.."sabi ni Charlie habang nailing-iling kay Dave. They're somehow close right? Well. Nagkakilala na rin sila after ng 1 week na pagsasama-sama ng Athena Cabin A.. syempre may somehow napartner sa isa't isa sa bawat task.. edi syempre magiging close mo na rin yung mga taong yun and by the means on taong yun naka-partner ko na rin sila Ruth, Jake, Dave, Josh and even Kelly na simula't sapul pa lang hindi ko gusto ang aura but knowing her for atleast two times shempre nag-iba at bumuti rin yung impressions ko sa kanya which somehow leads us to acquaintances to the possible friends kasi by on the process meeting her she tells me a lot about herself and she contradicts my impression to her through the way she communicates and interact with me na somehow ikinatutuwa ko naman (di nga lang halata.) Kasi ayoko na ng bad blood with anyone anymore after dun sa nangyari kay Courtney so.. i'm trying my best to stay out from humiliation, troubles at exposure.. but. The only thing that actually confuses me is the thought of after ng pagpartner namin ni Impakto para dun sa unang activity never ko na syang naka-partner or never niya nakong binother with his annoying presence (which is good..) pero somehow hindi sya masyadong gumagawa ng kung ano mang hocus pocus para lang burautin ako.. and. The thing that actually confuses me the most is the thought of how nostalgia he gaves me after we ride the boat in silence under the million stars and me just munching the cookies out without the two of us getting on each other's nerves not only for a second but actually a minute. And that day still confuses me.. kasi after nung ride na yun pinabalik niya na ako sa cabin tapos pinatawag siya ng ate niya dahil tungkol nga daw sa boat ride actually dapat kasama talaga ko dun eh, but he insist by saying..

"Earth to Sum, Earth to Sum? Yoohoo! Where are you?"sabi ni Charlie habang napitik-pitik ng daliri niya sa mukha ko, na ikina-blinked ko naman then shakes my head tapos nagkibit balikat na lang ako sa nakangiting Charlie at nakangising Dave, probably thinking i look stupidily ugly.. (bwiset.-_-)

"Sum! Charlie! Dave!"narinig kong tawag ni Lexi samin na sabay naman naming tatlo nilingon na kita naman namin bitbit ang  violet back pack niya while wearing a black t-shirt, black leggings, dark blue vans with a baseball cap on..

Lumapit siya samin at niyakap kami isa't isa as a sign of goodbye saying: "i'll get going guys. Take care, see you on monday!"

Habang nakangiti samin while running back to catch up with the running crazily Ruth who also bid a short goodbye to us then challenged her older sister.. then by some reason i snap back to my trance..

"Woy! Ano? Tunganga. Uwi na tayo."
