“Oh, my fucking goodness, Jac! You won't believe this!”
“Ano ba 'yon at parang frustrate na frustrate ka?”
I grunt, sitting on my swivel chair.
“Hey, stop hanging. Nabibitin ako, beb, bad ka,” he chuckled on the phone.
“Hay nako naman kasi. Si Martina, beb, I know, may bago na siya!” I proclaimed and I hear nothing but his silence.
“Oh-kay.... So, do you happen to know it?”
Napasandal ako sa kinauupuan ko, “Hindi pa nga eh, but I'm on my way there. Basta, masaya ako na may bago na siya.”
“Masaya ka naman pala eh, bakit parang galit na galit ka?”
“Hey, don't laugh at me, Jacob Mondragon! You can't blame me, ayaw niyang sabihin kung sino and she is confusing the curiosity hell out of me,” reklamo ko.
“Relax, beb. Uuwi na ako. I can't let... any of you have someone who'll just mess your life up all over again.”
Natawa ako, “Boyfriend? Iz dat chu?”
“You can't blame me neither, Diane. Importante kayo sa akin.”
“Sus, selos ka lang eh, kasi may boyfie na siya, ikaw, wala,” I teased.
“I'm not jealous. Ayokong maulit 'yung mga kagagahan niyong mga babae kayo. Lalo na kayong tatlo nina Cara at Martina.”
“Fine!” I uttered as I heaved a sigh.
Gosh, he don't really have to be like that, but whatever.
“Oo nga pala, beb! OMFG!!!” Napatayo ako sa swivel chair ko at nagtatalon sa kilig.
“What is it this time at na-excite ka bigla?”
“You know Andrew? The one I was telling you before na nanliligaw sa akin?”
“Oh? What about that guy?” Ang cold naman, beb. Aren't you interested? Tsk.
“Hoy! Mag-show ka naman ng interest. Bad you,” patampo kong wika.
“Eh, fine, anong mayroon? Sasagutin mo na?”
Aba't tinatawanan ako?
“Sasagutin ko na siya, beb! What do you think?”
Excited akong umupo sa sofa habang hinihintay ang sagot niya, pero ang bakla, mukhang nakatanga.
“Beb? Still there?”
“'Wag muna, Diane. Hintayin mo muna akong makabalik ng Pilipinas.” I frown at what I have heard from him.
Bakit na naman? Lagi na lang niya akong pinipigilan.
“Why na naman? Don't tell me, you wanna check if he's on top of your standards at aayawan na para bang ikaw ang makikisama?” I raised an eyebrow, “Come on, Jac. Let me do this on my own. I really like him.”
“Just wait for me, Diane, please! And if he's really into you, makapaghihintay siya, so, please!” he said firmly.
Alam niyang matagal nang nanliligaw si Andrew sa akin. It's been what, four years, or five?
“Oo na, sige na. Baka magtampo ka na naman eh.”
Disappointed man kasi akala ko ay magkaka-boyfriend na ako, hindi ko naman siya matanggihan dahil baka mag-away na naman kami. Alam niyo ba, siya ang dahilan kung bakit wala pa rin akong boyfriend sa loob ng dalawampu't limang taon? Bwisit 'tong baklang ito eh. Hinahanapan ba naman ng butas ang mga lalaking manliligaw ko. Ako naman si bestfriend, walang nagagawa kasi natu-turn off din sa mga 'yon. Kung hindi ko lang siya bestfriend eh, iisipin ko na talaga na binabakuran niya ako. Hays!
