Bea
The first thing I noticed is that the car isn't moving anymore. I was already awake but I didn't open my eyes yet. Was it a long drive na nakatulog pa ako?
I tried peeking to see what thirdy was doing and I caught him sitting there looking at me.
Was he waiting for me to wake up kanina pa?
I closed my eyes and fake yawned. I saw him look in another direction. Huli ka na eh pero di ka kulong.
"Where are we?" I asked.
"Baguio" he simply said.
ahh.. baguio.
"What?! Baguio?!" gulat kong tanong. I sat and looked at him.
"Yeah.. are you hungry?" he asked like the 4 - 5 hours drive was nothing.
"We. are. in. Baguio!" paglilinaw ko sakanya.
"uh huh..." marahan siyang tumango not getting my reaction.
"What are we doing here?"
"I thought you'd want a different environment rather than going to batangas, tagaytay and all that." sabi niya sabay iwas ng tingin.
napakunot nalang ako ng noo and fixed myself.
"So are you hungry?" Tanong niya ulit.
Thinking about it, I am. Where are we ba?
I looked around and saw that nakapark kami sa labas ng kainan.
"Did we just arrive?" kunot noo kong tanong pero di siya sumagot.
"Tara na" yaya niya at sabay na kaming bumaba ng sasakyan.
Sabay kaming naglakad papasok sa isang restaurant. It looked like an old house na pinaayos into a restaurant.
It was cold kasi naka halter top lang ako and jeans. He noticed it kaya hinubad niya yung windbreaker niya and gave it to me.
"Thanks" he patiently waited for me to finish putting it on before grabbing my hand and walked to a table near the window.
The view was beautiful. He just ordered steak for me and chicken for him. Sa sobrang hungry siguro kaya hindi na kami nagusap while eating.
I caught him taking a video of me while I was about to bite on my steak.
"Annoying" sabi ko and he just laughed.
Ang dami naming pinuntahan. When he said kanina na madami, literal na madami. We went to the garden, that colorful village and even the museum. I was super tired from all the walking.
We stopped over at Starbucks before going back. I'm actually surprised that he had this all planned out and brought me to places that are not usually visited by many.
Ang sad lang walang strawberry sa farm because they harvested it na. Sabi niya balik nalang daw kami ulit. As if naman.
"Here" sabi niya sabay abot ng drink ko, "Do you want anything to eat? cookies? cheesecake?"
"No, I'm fine na." I said looking at him.
He nodded and typed something on his phone.
"Tara na? or do you have some places in mind to go to?"
kunot noo ko siyang inobserbahan while he waits for my answer.
"What?" confused niyang tanong.
"Wala" I said shrugging off the thought in my mind.
When we got inside I wore my seatbelt. He started the car and I played the music. Paalis na kami sa parking nung napansin kong he's not wearing nanaman his seatbelt.
I faced him, "Your seatbelt," I said facing him.
napa "o" siya. He reached for it and pulled it.
"Let me do it na and just drive." ilang segundo niya ako tiningnan bago tumango.
We listened to Russ on the way home pero nung nagibang way siya maybe he had something planned?
3 pm na kami nakaalis ng baguio. We didn't want na sumabay sa rush hour kaya bumalik kami ng mas maaga.
"Where are we going?" I asked when I noticed the familiar route.
"May susunduin lang." simple niyang sabi and I just nodded.
Dumeretso siya sa gym and I saw some students waiting outside. Napalingon ako sakanya and umiwas agad ng tingin. The car stopped in front of the laughing students.
I heard the car door open behind me and close.
"Hi!" I heard her say. Nilingon ko siya at ngumiti sabay tingin sa labas at iniwasan ang titig ni thirdy.
"Kain tayo?" she suggested. Hindi na ako sumagot.
"Bea?" thirdy asked when no one answered.
"Huh? what?" patay malisya kong tanong.
"Do you want to eat?" he asked.
"Ah... s-sure." sabi ko at tipid na ngumiti. Pumalakpak si julia at tumango lang din si thirdy.
Palabas na kami ng school when she suddenly spoke.
"Thirdy change your music naman! ang boring!"
Sa peripheral view ko I saw him look at the rare view mirror. I disconnected my phone and stared outside.
"Bea..." mahina niyang sabi. Hindi ko na pinansin. I guess he connected his phone because maya maya his type of music played.
"Can you take me home instead? Aj texted that they're waiting for dinner at home and ako nalang hinihintay." sabi ko kahit wala naman talaga. I was uncomfortable and felt like I'm the reason why something might not blossom.
He looked at me. As if I'm puzzle that needed to be solved. I didn't budge. Nakatingin lang ako sa window. He eventually gave up.
"Okay." he said sighing.

FanfictionA best friend. Thirdy Ravena was only a best friend to Bea de Leon. At least that's what she kept telling everyone. It's not until she reads this thread her fans made about them. Confused? Why is she confused?
