Vee and Vince (V series #3) (#Wattys2019) - COMPLETED

24 - Soulmates

Veera's POV

"Vee, hindi ko na talaga, kaya. I think mag-a-undertime na lang ako." Moira said. Halos nakatiklop na nga siya sa desk niya while complaining kung gaano kasakit ang tummy niya.

I also noticed that she is unusually pale simula kanina pang umaga and there are beads of sweat in her forehead too.

"Okay, okay. Can you get up? Magpaalam tayo kay Ma'am Trisha." I said then I helped her stand up.

"Is she fine?" I heard someone spoke from my back. Si KD pala. Kung hindi lang cute 'to, he'll receive a sarcastic remark from me. Mukha bang okay si Moira? But it looks like he's asking sincerely naman.

"She's totally not." I replied. "She told me na masakit ang tyan niya kanina and it looks like it got worse."

"Let me help you with her." He offered at tinulungan nga akong alalayan si Moira. Or more like siya na lang ang umalalay, sinamahan ko lang sila.

Ma'am Trisha doesn't look surprised when I told her Moira's condition. Napansin niya rin daw kasi that Moira doesn't look well kanina pa lang pagpasok niya.

And now, kaming dalawa na lang ni KD ang nandito. Ang tahimik tuloy. Yes, we're both in speaking terms naman na pero iba pa din when Moira's here.

Ayoko pa naman ng tahimik. Naiisip ko kasi si Kuya Vince. Gusto ko na rin naman siyang kausapin. Ma'am Trisha told me na palagi nga raw siyang dumadaan dito pero hindi niya naman ako maabutan.

"Vee, ang tahimik mo yata ngayon? You okay?" Tanong sa akin ni KD. He smiled. "Miss mo na ba agad si Moira?"

"Medyo. Walang maingay eh." I said then laughed.

He laughed with me. "But seriously, Vee. Are you okay? Ngayon lang kita nakitang nag-smile since kaninang umaga. Having a bad day?"

I sighed. Ganon ba kahalata? I chose to tell him what I really feel na lang. Baka mabigyan niya rin naman ako ng advice.

"It's a bad week." Kwento ko.

"Why? What happened?" He asked. He looked at me without pausing from what he's doing.

"Me and my best friend had a fight." I started. "Well, minsan naman talaga, nag-aaway kami but this time, parang ang tagal na naming hindi nag-uusap."

"Have you tried calling him or her?"

"He's a him." Sabi ko. KD just nodded. "And no, I haven't tried calling him yet."

"Eh how about him? Is he trying to reach out to you?"

I nodded. "Yes. Actually sabi ni Ma'am Trisha, palagi nga daw siyang pumupunta dito. Kaso hindi niya naman ako naabutan."

"Wow, ang effort rin ng best friend mo ah. Talagang pinupuntahan ka pa niya dito?" He commented.

"Well, he's working here too kasi."

"Really? Saang department?"

"Sa El Dominguez. He's the assistant chef there."

"O 'yun naman pala eh, if you're both working here, it should be easier for you to talk. Tsaka kung hindi ka niya maabutan dito, then you could go to him instead."

"Alam mo, KD, I've been thinking about the same thing. Kaya lang I don't know how to approach him." I admitted. "Nahihiya kasi ako."

He chuckled. "Alam mo, that's normal, Vee. Ganon talaga, medyo awkward. Nag-away nga kasi kayo and I bet you both said something that hurt each other's feelings. Ganyan din naman kami ng mga bestfriends ko whenever we're having a misunderstanding."
