Loving Aria

Chapter 3

I was getting my coffee at the canteen when I saw her running in the hallway.

She stopped in midway ng makita nya ko bago kumaway. I choose to ignore her. I'm not in the mood for pleasantries.

"Ang sungit mo talaga, no?" Natatawang sabi nya na pumila sa likod ko. I am still waiting for my coffee. "Tanghaling tanghali nagkakape ka. "

Katatapos lang kasi nila maglunch. Samantalang ako kukuha lang ng coffee. I'm not in the mood to take lunch. I'm not hungry anyways. Besides, Shia is on leave today kaya walang sisita sakin whether I take my lunch or not.

Bago ko pa makuha ang kape ko ay mabilis na iyong naagaw ni Corinne.

"What the fuck?" I hissed lowly knowing fully na madami pang empleyado sa pantry. I glare at her.

She just gave me a playful smile. "Hindi ka pa kumakain di ba?"

From the lunch bag she's holding, nilabas nya yung glass container. And since clear glass iyon, kitang kita na doon ang laman na clubhouse sandwich.

"Lunch?" Iwinasiwas nya pa yun sa harap ko.

Masama pa din ang tingin na inabot ko yung coffee ko na mabilis nyang nailayo. At dahil magkasing tangkad lang kami, It's not easy to take it back from her.

"You shoud eat first. Sige ka, mabubutas sikmura mo kung puro kape ka lang ng kape. You should fill your tummy too, you know. "

"Pakialam mo ba?" I hissed. "Akin na yang kape ko bago pa ko tuluyang mainis sayo. "

"Bakit ba ang sungit mo? Ikaw na nga binibigyan ng pagkain. " Napapalatak na sabi nya. "Kainin mo muna 'to. Akin na lang tong kape mo kapalit nito. "

Bago pa ko makasagot ay nainuman nya na yung kape ko. Which makes me grunt even more. I hate sharing food and drinks.

Inis na iniwan ko na lang sya at naglakad palayo. Since sakto lang dinala kong pera, I can't buy another coffee. Nasa station ko pa naman yung bag ko.

"Hey, ano ba yun?" She run after me.

I choose to ignore her again. I'm good at it anyways.

"Aria!" Inis ng medyo may kalakasan na tawag nya sakin. "Hoy, heto na yung kape mo o. Galit ka naman agad. Para tinikman ko lang. "

I was about to say something ng matigilan ako sa paglakad.

"She's not sharing her food and drink to anyone."

Jen is already infront of us. She's with the other Marketing and Sales team. Siguro maglalunch pa lang sila kasi twelve thirty pa lang naman.

"Come, I'll get you a new coffee. " Yaya sakin ni Jen. I glance at her back. Seriously, I hate her circle of friends sa office. Parang puro ang yayabang at ang susungit. Syempre kaaway ng Accounting team ang Marketing team kasi puro sila gastos why all we ever do is to keep things at budget. Hirap sila magpa.approve samin minsan ng budget.

"Naiwan ko sa itaas yung wallet ko." Sagot ko sa kanya.

Jen rolled her eyes. "Ano pa nga ba? Syempre laging sakto dala mo para di ka matempt bumili ng chips. "

"Baliw. " I grinned at her. Though totoo yun. Ayaw ko kasi matempt bumili ng pringles. Iniiwasan ko na kasing kumain ng chips.

I immediately followed her in the vendo machine. Not caring if Corrine is still standing just near us.

"May game sa sabado, pupunta ka? " Jen inserted coins in the machine.

"Sino kalaro?"

"The same team. Saka yung girlfriend ni Grant. Ipapakilala daw niya." Pabirong sabi nito na ikinatawa namin. Paiba iba kasi lagi ng dinadalang babae yung kaibigan naming iyon.
