Chapter Three [3]
One message received.
I blink before opening the message. The hell! Napatayo na lang ako sa bigla. I immediately went to the bathroom to do my morning rituals.
"Mom! I'm going out with some friends and come home late!" I shouted towards the kitchen where my mom is busy preparing foods.
I went out at sumakay agad sa aking red Range Rover, my baby. It was a gift from my dad during my 16th birthday. Well, not really a gift, more like pampalubag-loob kasi pinilit niya akong mag-aral sa "school" niya.
Binilisan ko ang pagmamaneho at tumigil sa tapat ng isa sa mga kilalang cafe dito.
From: Bitch
Hey bitch! I just saw Lance together with some girl strolling at the mall. And guess who she is?! You know where I am so let's meet! Xoxo.
Tignan mo tong babaeng to, pa-mysterious! That's Donna Aguilar, my bestfriend aka my partner-in-crime. We've been friends since childhood so we're really close.
Umupo ako at umorder while scanning the place until I saw her walking towards me.
Tumayo ako at hinalikan siya sa pisngi, ganun din ang ginawa niya sakin.
"So, where are they?"
Napataas ang kilay niya then pointed at the far end corner of the shop. My eyes widen at the sight. It's no other than Aira Samonte, my one and only long time rival. I have been enemies with her all my life. And I have never ever envied something that she have.
But right now, I really wanted to be in her place. Seeing that she is casually hugging and being sweet with my babe. Tinignan ko silang mabuti, they look good together but we, Lance and I, are perfect together.
Napataas ang kilay ko nang subuan niya ng cake si Lance.
Ha! That bitch! Grrr!
Tinawag ko ang isa sa mga staff nila. I need to move. Hindi pwedeng hindi ako gumawa ng paraan.
Lumapit ang isa sa mga staff nilang lalaki.
"Hi!" I said lowly. Aba! Kailangan kong gamitin ang charms ko at konting drama. I faked a sob. "I have a problem, my boyfriend is cheating on me tapos harap-harapan niya yong ginawa. Hindi ko alam kung anong pwede kong gawin. Ngayon-ngayon lang, nakita ko silang magkasama. Kailangan ko ng tulong mo."
Donna just rolled her eyes on me. I continue to crying, making my self look really sad.
"Ano po bang pwede kong gawin ma'am?"
"My boyfriend is the one together with a girl who wears a pink floral dress. Nandun sila oh!" I pointed to where they sat.
"Please help me." At ginawa ko pang mas kaawa-awa ang mukha ko.
"Sabihin niyo lang po kung anong gagawin ko."
Then that's it! I smiled secretly. I whispered what he has to do. Tumango naman siya at mukhang desididong tulungan ako.
Donna in front of me started squirming at her seat. Tignan mo tong babaeng to! Ang bitch pero takot sa mga bagay!
I watched as the boy took steps towards their table then waited for
1. . . . .
2. . . . .
3. . . . .
"Aaahhhhh!! My dress!! Oh my gosh!!"
Then nakita kong tumayo si Aira galing sa upuan niya. Pulang-pula ang mukha habang tinitignan ang chocolate milk tea na natapon sa may bandang dibdib niya. Nasa tabi niya naman si Lance na naghahanap ng pamunas.
Habang tumatawa ako, may nakita akong isang babaeng may hawak na box ng confetti. Nakilala ko siya as one of the cafe staffs. I immediately stand and make my way towards my target.
When she was near me, iniumang ko ang paa ko sa daan, at dahil hindi niya masyadong makita yung dinadaanan niya, napatid siya. And the box went flying towards the bitch.
I almost laugh out loud when the confetti started to fall and stick on her! Napuno ng tawanan ang buong lugar habang halod mag-hysterical naman siya.
"What the hell!! Arrgghh!!"
"Ma'am sorry po, sorry po!" Hinging tawad ng babae habang tumutulong sa pagtanggal sa mga confetti sa damit niya.
I went back to my seat and angled my phone waiting for the right and perfect moment. After getting her picture, I post it on my Instagram with a caption saying,
"This! Looks likethe bitch is having fun playing with confetti. *with a smiley*"
I took one last glance before walking out. Donna followed me after that.
"Don't you think you went a bit too far posting it on a public?"
Tinignan ko siya.
"Too far? Nag-uumpisa pa nga lang ako eh! She should know where her place is. Hindi yung nagkakalat siya rito. Noon ko pa sinabi na akin lang si Lance, bakit ba hindi nila maintindihan yon?"
"Don't you think you're obsess with Lance? You can't even start your day without stalking him!"
"No! I am not obsess! This is called love. I am in love with him. And I will stay the same and it will never change. I know eventually, he is going to love me back. I know, I just know."
Napailing-iling siya sa sagot ko.
"Ikaw ang bahala. Sinasabi ko lang naman na, don't make yourself too low for him to notice you. I care for you, hindi ko man masyadong naipapakita, pero nag-aalala din ako sayo. Please."
"Fine! I will tone it down but don't expect me to stop."
I said with finality before opening my door and starting up my car. Nakita kong papalabas na sila Lance habang nagpupuyos parin sa inis si Aira. He look...... Concern? No, he's not concern. I know he is just faking it. Magaling siya dun.
Should I really stop?
"Don't you think you're obsess with Lance?"
Am I really stooping down that low? No, I 'm not. I am doing this because I love him and I won't stop until he loves me back.
Lance, you will be happy with me. Kailan mo ba mapapansin yun? Bakit mo ba ako kailangang iwasan? Hindi mo ba ako kayang tignan bilang isang babaeng mahal mo?
Those things continue to bother me until I got home.
