30: sleep #DWTDWP
RYU
Halos ala singko na ng madaling araw nang makabalik kami ni Poseidon. We closed the deal and fixed the current situation. For now everything was smooth sailing. Ilang beses akong napahikab and it reminded me I haven’t gotten sleep yet. I was supposed to rest when titless called yesterday night, and then it happened.
One hella unforgettable night. But unfortunate things happened, like Cooler getting shot.
Poseidon pulled the car to stop. “Nandito na tayo,” anunsyo niya at pinatay ang makina.
Agad akong bumaba ng sasakyan at pumasok sa loob. The others must be asleep by now.
Napatigil ang tangka kong pagbukas sa doorknob nang makarinig ako ng halaklak ni Cooler.
Uh, he’s still awake?
Tuluyan kong binuksan ang pinto and found him on the long couch at nasa tapat niya si Titless. His eyes were a bit teary, probably due to excessive laughing.
Seriously, at this hour?
“So I let him taste dried dog poop!" Muling tumawa si Cooler at napatingin naman sa dako ko si Titless. "Oh, rocket is here!” sabi ni Titless nang makita akong pumasok. Hindi ko siya pinansin at napatingin kay Cooler. Napangiti siya nang malawak sa akin.
“So... how was it?” tanong niya.
“Done.”
Tila mas lalo siyang napangiti at tiningnan si Titless na nakatingin nang masama sa akin.
“Hey hey you bad bad devil!” she pointed at me.
“What?”
“Why did you take Cooler’s car?” tanong niya na nakataas noo.
Ah, Cooler told her about it. Wow, they’re close now. It’s been only more than three hours.
“That’s none of your business Titless.”
“Of course it is, it’s Cooler’s car, not yours. Why are you taking things na hindi naman sa’yo ha? Alam mo bang ‘yong feeling na inaagawan?!”
I stared at both of them, unsure what emotion I had in me right now. I don’t know what exactly I feel. Maybe I’m tired, sleepy and all. Right now all I wanted to do is ripped them apart even if their distance isn’t really that close. Ewan, magulo ang isip ko.
Pagod ako.
Inaantok.
Nag-aalala.
Whatever.
So I slowly nodded in response to her question. “Yeah, because I think that’s what I exactly feel right now.”
Saglit na tumahimik ang paligid. I don’t know why I voiced out what was on my mind at the moment but it’s all been said and done. No taking back. Cooler’s smile faded and he had that worried expression on his face. So I turned at titless who looks like a confused idiot right now.
