Aldridge's pov.
"Babe, penny for your thoughts?" She said as we walked down in the mall.
Hindi lang mawala sa isip ko ang babaeng nakita kong kinakausap ni chezca kanina sa isang store dito sa mall.
There is something about her.
Something I can't explain.
"Nothing, I'm just tired." I lied, I don't want to make chezca jealous.
Ayoko ng away, chezca has always been the drama queen of all time. Sometimes when we fight all I can do is leave. Yung mga maliliit na bagay, ginagaw anyang malaki.
Chezca and I celebrates 5 years together this day.
"Well our baby is now waiting sa house. Yaya minda told me khalib wants to see us na. Tara na sa house?"
but since khalib is throwing his tantrums today we decided to go home.
I drove the car as quick as I can.
Hindi parin maialis sa isip ko ang babaeng yun.
I don't know why, pero somehow I really felt like I know her.
Para bang nakita ko na sya, somewhere other than that store.
Or maybe in my dreams? I don't even know.
When we arrived at the house chezca asked yaya minda kung asan si khalib.
While I sat on the sofa thinking about that girl.
Damn, I'm getting hella crazy!
Don't get me wrong. I don't like that girl, pero the thought of me knowing her kahit hindi? Damn it!
Kukunin ko sana ang wallet ko para kunin ang contact number ng store na pinagtanungan ko ng sapatos.
Pero hindi ko mahanap.
Did I just... lost it?!
Fucked up day, kanina lang iniisip ko kung sino ang babaeng di ko naman talaga kilala and now?! I lost my wallet?
I went back to the mall to ask if meron ba silang cctv footages na mapapakita sakin, I don't care about the money or the cards. May importanteng bagay dun.
sa mall lang naman kame nag punta ni chezca, so I don't think I lost it anywhere other than the store in the mall.
Nung una ayaw nilang ipareview yung cctv since kailangan daw may police report pa pero when I told them who am I pumayag narin sila.
"Wait wait kuya paki pause." This is the footage on that store, eto yung part na nakaalis na kame.
And then I saw that woman picked up my wallet and leave.
Nahulog sya from my pocket, but then hindi imbes na ibalik kinuha nya?
Kaya ba pamilyar ang mukha nya dahil nakita ko na sya minsan sa news?!
Or sa kulungan?!
Sayang yung ganda, magnanakaw naman pala.
I went out of my way, pinicture-an ko ang babae kanina sa cctv. I need to find her, I need my wallet back!
When I went home gabi na, chezca is currently sitting on the sofa.
I sat down and kissed her.
"Where have you been babe?" She asked.
Kase hindi nako nakapagsabi sakanya, the moment I knew my wallet is missing tumakbo nako agad pabalik ng store.
"I lost my wallet so I had to go back to the mall and find it. But I didn't, the girl you are talking with stole it." She clapped her hands once.
