Wrong

Chapter 2

"Hi Ma, Pa", I greeted my parents and hugged them, "I want you to meet Pamela, my girlfriend."

Mom looked shocked. "Hi, Tito, Tita", Pam shook their hands as a greeting, "Nice to meet you po." She looks beautiful smiling.

"Good morning hija" Dad said, "Will she join us for lunch Thom?"

"Ah, dad, actually that's why I brought her here so she can join us for lunch, so you could know her better." I said, well, it's the first time I will introduce them to each other.

"It's already noon, so I suppose my husband means 'Good afternoon' hija, sorry for that." Mom said "And I also think the table is now ready. Come now."

Kuya Axel is already sitting at the dining chair, the partner of the dining table. I don't want to say 'Kuya Axel is already sitting on the dining table', I find it funny kasi haha.

After the prayer, they started serving themselves, while I'm helping Pam. She likes spam, but sadly, we only serve it for breakfast. Haha, just kidding.

I smiled at the thought. "Thom, okay ka lang?" she asked. She looks confused but at the same time looks like she's going to laugh.

"Yeah" I answered.

Dad and Pam looks like they are getting along while Mom is just smiling often and talks a little while Kuya Axel and I are just listening to them. I think Dad likes her naman, besides her family is also on the business industries, so I'm pretty sure boto si Dad sa kanya.

After an hour and a half, nag paalam na ako na ihahatid si Pam.

"Thanks for the wonderful dinner Tita, Tito. It's very nice meeting you po." She said starting her good bye, "See you soon po." Then she smiled and entered the passenger seat of the car. I borrowed Kuya Axel's car because, well, I'm too lazy to do so.

"Ingatan mo yung sasakyan ko hah!" Biglang sabi ni Kuya before pa ako makasakay then I gave him a thumbs-up.

"So Pam, nag-enjoy ka na-" I dared to start a conversation while I'm driving but when I looked at her, "-oh. You're asleep na pala" I can't blame her, it's already quarter to 10. I guess she's so tired one hour din kasi ang biyahe from my house to her dorm in Katip. Plus the traffic.

My cellphone rang. Since traffic naman, I picked it up.

"Hello?"

"Hi Thom. Nagising ba kita?" It's Ara pala.

"No naman. I'm drivng my girlf-"

"What?!" I knew it wasn't good idea to tell her, I knew it.

"Okay, I'll explain."

"You are driving? You shouldn't have answered! Alam mo naming pag hindi ka sumagot sa tawag ko once, hindi na kita kukulitin eh!" Hay Ara. Eto ka na naman.

"Wait Ara, I am-"

"Mangungulit lang naman akokung talagang importante eh. Ibababa ko na toh, at oo. Nag-tatampo ako!" sa lakas ng sigaw niya,kahit hindi naka loudspeaker yung phone, nagising parin si Pam sa sigaw niya. Grabe pa naman mag-tampo yun, baka hindi ko siya maka-usap in days pagkatapos niyang ibaba yung phone.

I looked at Pam while she is observing the traffic. Mga siguro 5 minutes na kaming hindi gumagalaw.

"Thomas, mag lalakad nalang ako from here, malapit nalang naman eh" she said.

"Pero baka kung anong mangyari sa'yo." I answered but she smiled, meaning, its-okay-because-you-cant-do-anything-about-it. I'm a little exaggerating, pero, I guess I'm a bit right naman.
