"What?!" Gulat na wika ni Glaze sa ka video call niya na si Clay. "Magtra-transfer ka? Your kidding me right? The university wouldn't allow it."
"Oh yes, they did. You know connections." Clay said saka malawak na ngumiti. Then Ice came to barged in her room.
May hawak-hawak itong dalawang in-can na coke at fries saka tumabi sa kanyang ate.
"Hi kuya Clay! You look terrible." Wika nito saka humalakhak. Napakamot naman ng ulo si Clay dahil dito.
"Magkapatid nga talaga kayo." He said and pout. "Anyway, buddy may I take your sister out for today?" Nakangiting ika nito.
"Okay. No monkey business." Sagot ni Ice.
"Yes!" Clay said saka kumindat.
"Whaaat?! Why you're selling your sister now Ice?"
"You're always in your room. You should go out too and get some sun ate." Ika nito sabay nguya sa kinakaing fries.
"Unbelievable." She said while staring at her brother. Minsan iniisip niyang mas matanda si Ice kaysa sa kanya.
"Okay, then. I'm going to pick you up Glazey. I'll be there at 20." Wika ni Clay at bago pa siya makapag-protesta he already disconnected the call.
Glaze sighed while looking at her brother who's smiling mischievously.
And true to Clay's words, he's already in their house to fetch her.
"Glaze honey, Clay is here." Ika ng mommy niya.
"Alright mom. I'm going downstairs in a minute." Sagot niya sa ka yang ina. Sinipat muna niya ang kanyang itsura sa salamin. She's wearing a simple white fitted shirt and ripped jeans saka niya iyon pinarisan ng itim sneakers. Naka messy bun ang buhok niya ang she let a few strands of her hair to fall. Then she sprayed some perfume bago siya bumaba patungong living room.
Her lips curved ng madatnan niya si Clay at Ice na nagkukulitan sa sala. Napatigil baman ang mga ito ng makita siyang nakatayo sa harapan nila.
"So, ahm, shall we go?" Nakangiting tanong niya sa binata. Napakunot ang noo niya ng mapansing napatulala ng bahagya ang binata.
Napatigil si Clay sa pagkakatulala ng maramdaman niya ang pagsiko ni Ice at ang pagbungisngis nito. Napakamot siya sa kanyang batok saka nahihiyang ngumiti.
Shit lang!
"Ahm, ehem, yeah let's go." Sagot niya dito saka tumayo saka sila nagpaalam bago umalis.
"Ate bring me some doughnuts!" Pahabol nito.
Pinagbuksan ni Clay ang dalaga at ng makasakay na ito, umikot siya at binuksan ang driver's seat at saka umupo roon.
"Saan tayo?" Tanong ni Glaze sakanya.
"Quantum. Okay lang? Let's have some fun in there."
"Yeah. Matagala na rin akong hindi nakakapunta doon." Wika ng dalaga habang nakatingin sa labas.
They both groaned ng ma istock sila sa traffic. Weekends madaming namamasyal na galing sa ibang lugar. Glaze sighed hanggang sa mahagip ng mata niya ang radio sa kotse ni Clay at pinakialaman iyon. Sakto naman na ang nagplay ang kanta ng Green Day na Still Breathing.
Glaze start to hum and tap her feet and Clay do the same while tapping on the wheel.
I'm like a child looking off on the horizon
I'm like an ambulance that's turning on the sirens
Oh, I'm still alive
I'm like a soldier coming home for the first time
I dodged a bullet and I walked across a landmine
Oh, I'm still alive
