It took us another 10 minutes to reach the park. And the whole time, I'm secretly observing Ronan, but I think he noticed me. Dahil sa tuwing tumitingin ako sa kanya, iyon namin ang pagtingin niya sa akin, saka niya ibabalik ang tingin sa daan.
When he parked the car, he turned off the engine and opened his door. Binuksan niya ang pinto sa tabi ko at bumaba na kami ni Liezel. Pagkasara niya ng pinto, pumunta siya sa likuran ng kotse. He opened the compartment and get our things.
There are only few people, most of them are families. Hindi na ako magtataka, I like this place because of it's tranquil atmosphere. Maraming mga puno ang nakapalibot dito, nagkalat ang mga bench at may mga lamp post din para kapag gabi. Sa isang parte ng parke ay may playground para sa mga bata. While in the heart of it lies a fountain. And I'm happy that the beauty of this park remains the same.
Naglatag ng Picnic Blanket si Ronan sa may damuhan. Inilabas niya ang mga sandwich at iba pang pagkain mula sa basket na bitbit. Noon ko lang napansin na may dala-dala din siyang lalagyan ng inumin sa isa na pa niyang kamay.
The moment Liezel sitted, she asked me...
"Ano nga palang sabi niya sa'yo?" I didn't get her, what is she talking about?.
"Who? "sagot ko sa kanya pagkaupo ko. Ronan handed me the sandwich, thanks I told him
"Renz! He texted you right?" Nang tiningnan ko siya sa mata parang sinasabi ng mga ito na Makisakay ka nalang. I sigh. I wish Ronan would react the way she wants, and notice whas she is planning.
"yeah.he said.."I don't know what to say, luckily my phone saved me.
-I got it I got it the note you gave me when you left-
-I got it I got it the note you gave me when you-
I think I have two new messages.
From: Liezel
Renz asked you if you're free this Saturday, because had wants you to help him buy a gift for his parents.
From:Liezel
Silent your phone!
I smiled at her text, ginugulo niya ako sa pagaakalang may lovelife talaga ako, siya kasi ay wala. Pinagbabawalan pa siya ng kuya niya.
"Renz asked me if I am free this coming Saturday." There I said it, 'iyan ang gusto niyang sabihin ko.
"Really? Anong sagot mo?" she eagerly asked.Tss. No doubt she is a member of drama club.
"yes, he wants me to help him buy gift for his parents" I recited again what is written in her message.
"Did you agree?"
"of course..."I look at Ronan, and I think he isn't listening to our conversation, he's not minding us.
"I told 'ya" I mouthed at her, lumabi lamang siya. Napatingin naman ako kay Ronan ng tumayo siya at sinabing magiikot-ikot lang sandali.
"Wala man lang selos sa katawan iyang boyfriend mo! How boring!" sabi niya sa naiinis na tono. Asa ka pa, this is just a fake relationship! gusto ko sanang sabihin.
"You're crazy, let's stop this"
Inubos nalang namin ang oras sa pagdadaldalan, pinag-usapan ang mga dating kaklase, syempre ang kuya niya at ang babaeng gusto nito
Masaya na sana ang kinalabasan nito kung sumasali si Ronan, he is familiar with them especially Kuya Lijan. But he stayed quiet the whole time, when you asked him he'll answer 2 to 5 words only.
