One Of The Few

You Came Along, Just Like Song

(I Can't Smile Without You by Barry Manillow)

Pinigilan ko.. matagal na.. pero hindi pa rin e. Ilang bese ko nang inisip na wala lang to, na lilipas din to kasi ganun naman di ba? Minsan dadating na lang tapos bigla din naman mawaawala, pero iba kasi ngayon e. Iba...

**********

Sorry guys I'm late! Tagal kasi mag decide ng client ko e. Dave and his friends invited me to join beaching. I am blessed coz I've only known their mates not longer than a month but they've already counted me in.

Medyo late ka na nga, pero may mas late pa naman sayo.. Dave chuckled. I turn to my back and saw Kaye's car coming. Pag hinto nito at agad na din syang bumaba at dumiretso sa likod ng sasakyan nya. He carry this huge guitar case at isang back pack.

Late na ba ko? nakangiti nyang bati. Hi Triish.. bati nya kay Trish. Kaye turn to my direction, smiling. Hi, Lu.

Hi! I reaplied. Here I am saying sorry for being late, only to find the slowest one behind me. I laughed.

May dinaan pa kasi ako iy. Muntik na nga akong mag back out. he pouted. Pero pinilit ko talagang makasama, baka kasi ma-miss mo ko e 😁 wow over confident naman sya..

Oh? Bakit ako? Hahaha baka ikaw ang maka-miss saken?! I stick out my tongue. Natawa naman sya.

Get in the car, malayo pa byahe natin. Dave yelled. Dito pa kayo nagliligawan.

Excuse me?? I scowl.

Kaye sat on the driver's seat with Dave while Trish and I make our comfortable seat at the back.

He rolled down his window, Kita na lang tayo dun? Diretso na? He talked to Mike from the other car.

Ready girls? Kaye asked.

Yea, let's do this! Trish said excitedly.

Kaye

Ganda ba ng view sa back seat? Hindi ko ipinahalata kay Dave ang gulat ko nang mapansin nya na nakatingin ako kay Lu from the rearview mirror. Natutulog silang dalawa. Naisip ko tuloy na sana hindi na ako pumayag magdrive hahaha.

Ilang ulit akong pasulyap sulyap sa napaka amo nyang muka.

He chuckle. Hindi naman ako magtataka kung magugustuhan mo sya, kahit sa states, nung nag-aaral pa kami marami na din umaaligid dyan.

Tumingin ako ng sandali kay Dave at bumaling ulit sa daan.

E bakit ikaw?ni minsan ba hindi mo sya nagustuhan?

Nagustuhan din naman.. kaya lang talagang hindi kami match. Akala nga ng parents namin noon, magiging kami. Bigla syang natawa. But she's too innocent for me. Kaya kung sa tingin mo e gusto mo sya, alam mo dapat kung pano sya sasaya. His voice became serious.
