Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But baby, I've been, I've been praying hard,
Said, no more counting dollars
We'll be counting stars, yeah we'll be counting stars~
Hmmm ano ba yan ang ingay. Tumagilid ako at hindi pinansin ang kung ano man ang tumutunog na yon.
I see this life like a swinging vine
Swing my heart across the line
And my face is flashing signs
Seek it out and you shall find
Old, but I'm not that~
Dinampot ko ang cellphone ko sa gilid na kama. Sino ba naman to, istorbo. I tapped the answering button without opening my eyes. I waited a seconds to hear the voice in the other line but I hear nothing.
"Hello?" I ask with irritation, hindi ko talaga ugaling unang magsalita lalo na at hindi ako ang tumawag. "K. bye" Walang nagsalita so I decided to end the call and go back to sleep pero bago pa ako magpalit ng pwesto tumunog na naman ang ringing tone ko. Hayys enebeyen, gusto ko pang matulog!.
"Sino ba to? hindi mo ba alam na nakakaistorbo ka nang taong tulog?!" I yelled. Still not opening my eyes, tamad na tamad ako na kahit pagmulat nang mata hindi ko magawa.
"Hey! you don't need to shout!"
"You idiot! Who the hell are you and what do you want? Make it fast because I'm busy!"
"Busy sleeping huh?" Pake mo? "It's me, Third" and with that I hastily looked the caller's id. Si third nga, bat naman daw napatawag to.
"Bakit ka tumawag?"
"Ang aga mo naman atang natulog?"
"You don't care, bakit ka nga tumawag?"
"How are you?" tanong niya ulit. ano ba to magtatanungan nlang ba kami.
"Okay lang ako, ikaw okay ka lang ba? hindi mo sinasagot ang tanong ko"
"Yeah I'm fine. I just called to know if you're okay. Tinawagan nila Monic si Elle kanina para mag overnight daw and I heard you didn't make it because you were sick" So, totoo talagang magkasama sila kanina.
"Oo. Susunod ako bukas sa kanila" I said.
"You should rest and don't go outside!" Napataas ang kilay ko lalo na't ramdam ko sa boses niya ang iritasyon.
"And why would I do that?"
"Because I said so!" Galit niyang sabi.
"Nangako ako sa kanilang susunod ako! ano bang problema mo?!" Nagagalit ko ding tanong. Concerned ba siya sa akin?, the thought that he's just concerned about me gives shiver on my body, gaaahh ang lakas ata nang aircon at giniginaw ako.
"Tell them that you're not going anywhere! you need to rest o gusto mong pumunta ako sa inyo para siguraduhing hindi ka aalis" The nerve of this guy! siguradong mapapagalitan lang ako ni kuya kapag may bumisita sa aking lalaki. Lalo na si dad, they don't want me to have a guy friend and that I don't know why!.
"Okay fine! no need to do that!" I said angrily.
"Good girl" I can sense he is smirking right now. Ugh! "Well, you need to rest at mukhang masama talaga ang pakiramdam mo pero kumain ka muna" Mas lalong sumama pakiramdam ko sayo! ginawa ko ang makakaya ko para lang hindi siya sigawan. Bakit ba kasi tumawag tong lalaking to at bigla-bigla naging corcerned citizen.
