I Heart You (FRANKIANA)

Chapter 3

It was Sunday and a rest day for her so she decided to stay home. And for some reason I declined Vianca's invitation. I know I had some crush on her and I am fully aware of that but here I am staying at home as well, looking at Franki while she types something on her laptop. How can she be more attractive and being serious?

"Wala kayong vacation?"

She frowned. I know she doesn't want to be bothered while she does something. Umiling siya as a response. I smiled for I know what she'll react. Hay, same old Franki with her short wavy dark black hair. Her brown eyes that seem to shine whenever she smiles. Great. Am I fvcked up again?

"You want some chips? Pringles? Piknik? Piatos?"

Tiningnan niya ako ng masama. Nginitian ko lang naman siya. She rolled her eyes and I laughed this time. Lumabas na ako ng condo at pumunta sa pinakamalapit na convenient store para bumili.

I went back with the snacks and softdrinks. Ilang sandal pa ay natapos din naman siya sa ginagawa at umupo na din sa may couch. Grabbing some pringles and opened the drinks that I bought.

We we're enjoying some Japan Horror movie when her phone rang.

It was Bailey, another date I think, inviting her for a date. I rolled my eyes when she accepted it. Nakita niya ang reaksyon sa muka ko.

"C'mon be happy for me." And she moved closer putting her head on my shoulder. O great. She always clings this way.

"I am trying. Franki, bata ka pa. You don't have to go on so many dates! May hinahabol ka bang deadline?" Inis kong sabi. Concern lang naman ako sa kanya. Kahit naman alam kong well-mannered yung mga nakakadate niya e syempre. Ah basta. O talagang nagseselos lang ako.

"Over-protective naman 'tong bestfriend ko!" sabi niya at kinurot yng pisngi ko.

Pinagpatuloy ko na lang yung pagkain ng pringles.

We were so focused on the movie we're watching and later fell asleep on the couch. Nagising ako with Frank's head on my lap. I removed some of her hair strands on her face. Grabe Franki, eto na naman tayo. Nandito na naman sa ganitong senaryo.

Nagising siya at umayos ng higa. Ginawang unan yung hita ko.

"Franki, nakakangalay ikukuha kita ng unan." Sabi ko na lang pero sa loob2 ko susko kahit poreber pa to keribels lang.

Hindi siya umimik bagkus ay isiniksik pa ang sarili niya sakin. Wala na kong nagawa at inaayos na lang ang sarili ko sa tabi niya and we fell asleep again.

Nagising ako sa na makasakit ang tenga. Pinitik lang naman ni Franki yung tenga ko. I groaned in frustration. Ugh.

"What?" Inis kong tanong sa kanya. She's leaning her head on her arms enough for me to see her face. What a beautiful scenery

Ngumiti lang siya at yung ilong ko naman yung pinipitik.

"Franki!"

"What should we eat?"

I frowned. Can I not think? I'm still sleepy. Pero hindi pa rin niya ako tinigilan. And when she's about to touch my nose again I tickled her. Muntikan pa kaming malaglag sa couch. Her face was so red and she's laughing so hard kaya naman patuloy ko siyang kiniliti.

"Dianaaaaaaa—omg. Tama na! Suko na ko!" she was defending her body from my hands at dahil awang awa na ko sa kanya ay tinigil ko na din ang pagkiliti. Grabe nagising and diwa ko.

I lay down beside her. She poked my boobs. OMG!

"The hell?" Nagulat ako syempre.

"What's wrong? Uyyy ha. Lumalaki ha. Flat yan dati." She said then laughed. I don't know if I should be offended or be offended. Sinamaan ko nga ng tingi.\

"Eh yung sayo walang progress." Bawi ko naman sa kanya. Isang palad at dumapo sa noo ko after sabihin yon sa kanya. Ang sakit!

"Aray ko naman! Totoo naman e!" sabi ko. It's the opposite. She grew a lot. Sexy. Yes.

Tumayo na siya at dumiretso sa kusina. Tawang tawa pa rin ako sa kung paano kabilis nagpalit ang mood niya. From bully to victim. Cute.

"Oy, syempre joke lang yon. Haven't I told you mas naging sexy ka ngayon." Sabi ko at lumapit sa kanya. She turned around to face me. Tinaasan ako ng kilay when she noticed I was looking at here intently.

"Stop checking me out." Saway nito then smirked.

I smirked too. "With your messy bun hair andruffled clothes, na-ah am not checking you out." Nakita ko ang pamumula ngmukha niya at ang cute niyang reaksyon na parang hindi makapaniwala sa sinabiko. Later, she frowned. Inirapan niya ako at pinagpatuloy na lang angpaghahanap ng maiiluto.

I decided to just stay at home that day. Franki has her date tonight and I'm praying and praying to Almighty God to make it a disaster again. I spend the whole waiting time on playing video games. Iniwanan na rin niya ako ng pagkain. She's heaven sent really.

Finally, she arrived home being so exhausted and all.

"How's the date?" I asked.

She slumped herself on the couch. "Suko na ko."

Napatawa naman ako sa sinabi niyang yon. Thank you po Lord.

"Salamat at natauhan. I won't go through about the disaster. Do you have atleast a vacation this month?" pag iiba ko sa usapan kasi hindi naman talaga interesado sa kung ano man ang ikukwento niya mula sa pangit niyang ka date.

Sandal siya nag isip. "I have a weeklong vacation. Why?"

"Uuwi kaba sa Cabanatuan?"

"I plan so. Ikaw? Hindi mob a bibisitahin sina Tito"?

Umiling ako. "Yayain sana kitang mag baler? 2 days lang naman tayo."

Bigla naming kuminang ang mga mata niya sa narinig pero tila nag iisip ulit siya.

"What if ayoko?"

I rolled my eyes. Like seriously, Franki?

"So what's the deal?" kilala ko na 'to e.

Tumawa muna siya. "I'll come with you pero sasama ka din sakin sa Cabanatuan."

Sinamaan ko na lang siya ng tingin at bumuntong hininga. Okay, gusto ko siyang makasama diba?

Tumango na lang ako kahit labag sa loob kong umuwi.
