JOEY

“So I figured out na bawal kayo magsalita?” I said. 

Silence. -___-

Malamang, bawal nga silang magsalita eh.  

“Wow, it’s like we’re blind and you guys are deaf.”   I laughed.

“Not bad after all eh?” I continued. “I’ll do the talking and you’ll just listen. Poor you. I’m quite talkative.” 

Mungtanga. LITERAL.  

Tch. This is lame.  

Dinner... 

“Sa tingin mo? Sino kaya yung ka partner ko?”   Bettina asked for the nth time.

“Seriously, we’re both blindfolded. How am I supposed to know?” 

“Ang suplada naman nito.”    She hissed. “Ikaw? Who do you think is your partner?” 

Of course, I don’t know. But I’m expecting... well, really expecting its Zach.   Pero pano ko naman malalaman? Hindi niya ko hinahawakan at hindi man lang niya ko hinayaan na hawakan siya.

Useless.  >__<

“Pano ko malalaman? Hindi nga niya ko hinahayaang makadikit sa kanya.” I muttered.

Joey's Flashback

“Fatally, you’re suppose to guide me. A little help won’t hurt.”   I glared.

Pero wala, NR padin yung partner ko. Well of course, aside sa fact na di siya nagsasalita still hindi niya ko inaalalayan. Gets gets?  

May activity kasi. The followers and the guides should come up and share with at least 10 things we could conclude after the meeting with our partners.

“My partner’s not helpful.” I muttered when the facilitator asked me kung ano yung nalaman ko about my partner.“My partner didn’t let me touch her... or his face. Whatever. ”I glared.

Wala namang nagsalita after kong mag share.

And hell, pano ko malalaman yung reaction nila if naka blind fold ako.  

“Well, natural lang yan.” Sabi ng facilitator namin. “People just don’t trust you easily. That’s life, that’s why we have this kind of activity. For them, to know you and for you to learn to trust them.” He continued. “Don’t worry followers. This is just our first day. Marami pa tayong chances.”

Then, nakita ko na naman silang magkasama.

Kanina pa ‘tong lunch eh.

“Oh. Wag mong patayin sa tingin.” Bulong ni Bettina sakin.

“Tss. What are you talking about?”   I lied.

“Kanina mo pa sila pinapatay sa tingin eh.”  

BV kasi eh.  

Ayan na naman sila, sila na naman. Magkatabi din sila nung lunch. Nagkkwentuhan at nagtatawanan pa. MADERPAKER.  

Sabay din silang nagbalik ng mga plato at baso nila sa may iwanan at sabay din silang bumalik sa reflection room kanina.

Wow ha? Ano ‘to catching up?
