Jiko's P.O.V.
Same Day
Naglalakad kami ngayon papunta sa isang sikat na salon, magpapaayos na ako kasi mamaya na 'yong campus pageant. Dapat mag-isa ako, kaso nagpilit sumama si Ryke, na parang nagugustuhan ko na din. Pero 'wag na muna 'yon, ayoko muna isipin 'yon.
Nang makapasok kami ay pinapunta na ako agad ng isang staff sa salon sa wash area at saka binanlawan ang buhok ko.
"Sir, ano pong gupit?", sabi nung gay
"Miss...", narinig kong nagsalita si Ryke at pinapunta sa kanya ang maggugupit ng buhok ko. Kung anu-ano ang ibinubulong ni Ryke. Maya-maya pa...
"Ah...ok po, sir." at saka lumapit na sa akin 'yong gay
"Stay still, sir.", at sinimulan niya na akong gupitan
After 60 minutes...
"Wow...", nakatingin ako sa itsura ko sa salamin ng salon
"Liked it?", sabi ni Ryke na nakita ko na nakatingin din sa akin sa salamin
Tumango ako
"At kailan ka pa gumaling sa pagtingin kung anong bagay na gupit sa tao?", sabi ko ng naka ngiti. What he has done is really amazing.
"Hindi naman ako talaga magaling. Sa'yo lang ako ganito."
"Sinong niloko mo?" ,tugon ko
"Sarili ko....kasi pilit kong tinatanggi pero talagang may nararamdaman talaga ako para sa'yo simula pa n'on.", Medyo hindi ko naintindihan 'yong iba niyang sinabi kasi lumayo siya

"Ihhhh! Kilig much...", bigla akong tumingin sa umirit na parang kinakatay. 'Yong nag gupit pala sa akin nandito malapit sa pwesto namin. Ang epal naman nito.
"Ay... sowrry.", maarteng sabi ulit nung hairdresser
"No, it's fine. Here's your tip. You did great.", biglang nag abot si Ryke ng Php 500 doon
"Ay... Teyngkyu,Siir. Baiit niiyu, pogiii paah~bagay kayo."
Tumingin ng nakakaasar sa akin si Ryke.
"Thank you, have a great day.", at hinila na ako ni Ryke mula sa pagkakaupo ko at pumunta sa counter saka nagbayad ulit.
Greg's P.O.V.
"That all would be... 50 bucks.", I said to the regular old lady who always go here to buy things
She smiled to me and handed me some cash. I gave her the change and packed up what she bought.
"Young man, why would you end up working here?", I know what she meant, with all the looks and great physical traits I have, nobody would think I'm just a normal college student. They thought I was some kind of hot model of underwear clothing.
But why would she ask? I ended up smiling at her and handed her bag.
"Thank you...what's your name again?"
"Greg, call me Greg, ma'am.", I said politely
"Thank you, Greg.", and she left with the paper bag I just handed her.
I was working at a convinience store near the city, doing night shift. And go study in the day. Like, I only got 2-4 hours of sleep every single day. It's frustrating, really.
Well, I couldn't afford making my mom worry about me, so I tell her that I'm all fine, and all the lies I could tell.
I got away from the counter, glancing at the tables.
"Hey Greg!"
I looked up to the one who called me.
"Hey, Jay.", I greeted nonchalantly
"What's with that bored expression?", and he sat on the seat at the table I was cleaning up.
"I'm just tired... that's all."
The one I'm talking to, is Jaydee Pelaez. A Filipino and works as a supervisor at a company. We met one year ago when he's new to the place he lives in. He just moved yesterday in the apartment building I live in.
I just noticed that he went to Starbucks earlier, because he's holding two venti cups.
"Latte?"
"Your favorite...", and he handed me a cup, my name written on it- "Ghreag"
"Funny Starbucks guys... sh*tting with people's mind.", I sipped some and placed it on the table
"Hey... I'm leaving tomorrow night.", he said to me after awhile
"A business trip?"
"Nah, I'm on leave for vacation.", he said
"That's cool, bro."
"Hey, it's not that bad, right? I'm just leaving for 2 months, man."
"To be honest, it sucks you leaving me here."
He laughed for a bit, and smiled.
"Kaya mo 'yan. I believe in you, okay?", He said while patting my back like his my big bro. Jaydee walked off.
"Yeah,yeah... Hope so...", Greg muttered to himself
"Good luck with your game, Mr. Suplado.", and he left not before giving me a sincere smile, which I did in return.
Omniscient P.O.V.
"Hey.", Greg called Jaydee while he was looking for something in his bag. Greg then tossed the package to Jaydee, who caught it with one hand.
"What's this?", Jaydee asked
"A gift, for your lil' brother."
Jaydee laughed a bit for the unusual behavior Greg is showing.
"Thanks, he's going to love these.", and Jaydee fist bumped Greg on the air.
