About You

XIX.

"OH MY GOD! KYAAAAAH!"

Bigla akong napabangon ng may narinig akong sumisigaw. I looked around, still adjusting my vision when a pillow hit my face. What the? "Aish!"

"Oh my gosh what the hell are you doing here?! P-paano ka nakapasok sa kwarto ko?! At a-anong ginawa mo sakin ha!" Heart's face is indescribable. She looks furious, scared and questioning at the same time. So wala syang naalala?

"Hey Leoel! Answer me!" Leoel? Asan na yung Cahel? yung Orangie?

"Heart relax oka-" binato na naman nya ako ng unan.

"How can I relax?! I w-woke up n-next to you, and ohmygod! D-don't tell me m-may nangyari sa atin?"

"Paano kung meron?" I teased her and as expected she freaks out.

"Kyaaaaahhh! No!" Hahahah, I pat her head. "I'm just kidding so stop screaming okay? First of all, hindi mo kwarto to, guest room namin to. Second, sobrang lasing ka kagabi at sinundo ka namin nina Madisson." I looked at the other bed pero bakante ito. Maybe she's downstairs? "Don't worry anjan lang yon sa tabi-tabi. Third, I'm so in love with you that I can't even think of disrespecting you, so no. Walang nangyari satin kaya kalma ka lang jan."

She became speechless at mukhang di pa rin mapakali, kung saan-saan sya tumitingin. Mabuti pa siguro hanapin ko na si Madisson para makampante na si Heart. When I was about to leave, Heart suddenly pulled the hem of my shirt.

"L-Leoel. Sigurado ka bang walang nangyari s-satin?"

Haha ang kulit. "Wala nga. Promise, cross my fvckin heart, hope to die right here, right now. Wala talaga."

"E-eh bakit magkatabi tayo ha?!"

Pft. "Hmm, let's just say you're holding so tight on me last night at ayaw mo akong paalisin that left me no choice but to stay beside you." Nanlaki ang mata ni Heart at dali- daling binitawan ang damit ko. Her face turned red at nanigas na sya don.

After a few minutes, she started hitting her head as if realization dawned her,"Ang idiot mo Heart! What's wrong with you? Oh my god! Ang stupid mo!"

"Hey stop it."

"Eh! I did a lot of stupidity last night! I deserved a beating! I swear I'll never drink again!" I smiled when I saw her tantrums, how I miss this side of her.

"Leoel." Napatingin ako sa kanya. "A-ano, kung ano man yung mga nasabi ko sayo kagabi, please forget it. Lahat ng kabaliwang ginawa ko, sana k-kalimutan mo na yon. I promised that'll never happen again." So, naalala na nya? I was about to answer her nang biglang bumukas ang pinto.

"OH TO THE EM TO THE GEE! ATE HEART! YOU'RE REALLY HERE!"

"Ate Heart, ano favorite food mo? Ako mahilig ako sa shrimps! Super sarap magluto ni Mom ng sinigang na hipon, you should try it!"

"Pft. Ibang klase, di naman excited kapatid mo no?" bulong sa akin ni Iris.

"Love na love ng sisteret mo si Heart ah, tinalo ka pa haha. The supposed-to-be sister-in-laws haha." sabi naman ni Madi. Seriously this two.

"Psh." Tiningan ko si Nea na kanina pa dada ng dada kay Heart. Wala na syang ibang ginawa kung hindi kulitin ang prinsesa ko. "Hoy Nea, kumain ka na nga lang, ang ingay mo."

She stuck her tongue out. "Whatever Kuya, huwag ka ngang makialam!" Nagsimula na naman syang tadtadin ng tanong si Heart. Konting-konti na lang babatuhin ko na to. Suddenly my phone beep.
