Holler When You Need Me (ON HOLD)

Chapter 10

"Answer it!" Chelsie squeals.

"Okay,okay!" I took a deep breath. "Hello?" I answered unsure.

"Hey there beautiful" He replied.

I rolled my eyes. "Hey Denis" I saw Chelsie staring at me amused from the corner of my eyes.

"No 'Hey there handsome'?" I could practically hear the pout in his voice.

I let out a short laugh. "Are we repeating our conversation earlier?"

"Well if you actually said 'Hey there handsome', our conversation would've turned out differently." He with a sigh.

"Oh yeah? And how is that?" Chelsie jumped in front of me and mouthed 'speaker!'

I put the phone on speaker so we could both hear him.

"Well for starters, we would've been flirting." I scoffed. "Hey, don't be dissin' on me."

Chelsie and I both laughed. "I don't think you used that right." Chelsie just said "Tanga." (~Stupid in Tagalog.~)

"Is someone else with you?" He asked.

I looked at Chelsie. "Yeah.. Why?"

"I thought I heard her say something.."

I chuckled. "Oh yeah.. She said you're tanga." Chelsie just shrugged.

"Oh.." He went silent for a while. "Is that an English word? I've never heard of it."

"Nah.. It's Tagalog. You know, our language.."

"Oh. Cool. What does it mean?"

"It means stupid."

"Cool! Now I know one word in Taga... Tagal.. Uhm.. I forgot the word.." I can totally imagine him scratching his neck right now. Lol.

"Tagalog. Lol, she just called you stupid and you're happy?" Chelsie said 'tanga' again.

"What? When?" He wondered.

"You just asked wh-"

"Oh yeah.." He cut me off.

"Oh yeah.." I mimicked him.

"If you were in front of me right now, I'd be glaring at you." He muttered.

"We'll it's good I'm not in front of you then.. You're probably glaring at the wall right now, aren't you?" I chuckled.

"No." He said quickly.

"Ahuh.."

"Shut up."

"I didn't say anything."

"Whatever."

We were silent for a while. I have no idea what to say next.. Awkward.. Chelsie nudged me and talked to me in Tagalog quietly, but Denis could still probably hear us.

"Ang cute nya talaga!" (~He's really cute!~) She gushed beside me.

"I know right?! Pero sobrang corny." (~But so corny.~) I rolled my eyes.

"Whatever. Basta cute sya ayos na. Diba?" (~As long as he's cute it's alright. Right?~) She wiggled her eyebrows.

"Alam mong naririnig nya tayo diba?" (~You know he can hear us right?~)

"Hindi nya naman tayo maintindihan eh.." (~He can't understand us.~)

"True.." I said grinning.

"Uhm.. Guys?" Denis called awkwardly.

"Yeah?" We said together.

"I didn't understand a word you guys just said." He told us.

"Well duh. You weren't supposed to understand." Chelsie and I rolled our eyes. And high 5-ived each other.

"Oh.. But I understood the English words.." Chelsie and I laughed. "Obviously." The three of us said in unison.

"But that was pretty cool hearing you guys speak in another language. What did you guys talk about?" He asked us.

"Secret."

"Aww.. C'mon." He begged.

"No."

"Fine." He grumbled. "Hey, could you teach me how to speak Tagalog?" He asked suddenly.

Chelsie and I looked at each other. She raised her eyebrow at me. "Sure." I said.

"Yay!!" He cheered.

"Lol. Well, we gotta go. Bye, Denis."

"Aw.. Bye guys.."

"Bye.." We said and I hung up.

"Oh my gosh!" Chelsie grinned at me.

"What?" I asked.

"He likes you." She wiggled her eyebrows at me.

"No." I denied.

"Yes."

"No."

"Yes."

"No."

"You never know.."

"Whatever. Let's go home?" I asked.

"Sure." She shrugged and stood up.
