Mask Up My Pain

Chapter 2

Magic

Kahit na nakaalis na sa harap ko si Vish, nandito pa rin ako sa pinto at hinihintay ang kanyang pagbabalik..char syempre 'di mangyayari yun. Ano pa nga bang gagawin niya dito diba?
He just handed me this newspapers, nothing special.
Wag Kang echosera Sunny, stop being ilusyunada!!

At bago pa ako makipag World War III dito sa aking sarili ay bigla kong naalala ang gagawin ko dito sa newspapers.

Alam nyo ba ang rason kung bakit ko kailangan ng newspapers?
Babasahin ko syempre, alangan namang ipanggatong ko lang ito sayang ₱50 per month.

Gusto ko sanang gawing remembrance ni Vish, kaso naisip kong ang Weird pala non haha.

Maglalakad na sana ako pabalik sa aking Apartment nang bigla akong nakarinig ng mabibilis na yabag papalapit sa direksyon ko. Humarap ako para makita kung sino siya kaya't nagulat na lamang ako ng mapagtantong si--

"Here you are again Vish, why d-did you come back?"

Yeah, you read it right. It's Vish.

He immediately flashed his wonderful smile, parang matutunaw na yata ako.
"I've lost my car's key... and my precious heart here by your side"

Ano daw? Nawala niya yung susi tapos yung ano? 'Di ko narinig yung last part kasi parang pabulong niya lang sinabi, ang Weird ah. Nevermind.

"Bakit nailaglag mo ba dito?" tanong ko.

"Maybe, let me check" then he smile again.

Every time that he'll flash his smile, I feel like melting. 'Di ko malaman kung ano bang nangyayari sakin, i think maybe because he's too handsome.

So now, he start checking it all around. And me? I'm still watching him for almost a couple of minutes but it looks like his keys isn't here.

"Hey. still can't find?" marahan kong tanong na nakakuha ng kanyang atensyon. Ngumiti siya at umayos ng pagkakatayo, he walk towards me so I stiff where I stand. I can't even blink an eye. Bakit ba siya lumalapit sakin? Bakit grabe siya makatingin, may dumi ba ako sa mukha?

"Bakit ka l-lumalapit s-sakin?" I ask with nervousness at tanging ngiting nakakaloka lang ang natanggap ko pabalik. He still walk towards me until our face was about in inch or two away from each other.

I've just look into his beautiful hazelnut eyes, and it looks like hypnotizing me. Ang ganda ng mga mata niya parang nagniningning na bituwin.

I can now feel his warm breath directly into my face, I suddenly blush just because of it. I still can't move and my eyes locked into his. Hanggang sa isinumping ng kanyang kamay ang takas kong buhok sa aking tainga, may naramdaman akong kung ano sa likod nito, and to be surprise I saw a red rose on it. He gave it to me with his wonderful smile. Kasabay ng kanyang ngiti ay ang pagwagayway niya ng kanyang susi na hindi ko alam kung saan niya nakita.

"Vish, where did you get the flower?" I ask him hesitantly.

"It's Magic" sagot niya.

"Are you a magician or something?"

"Maybe? Haha"

"Are you a Clown?" Tanong ko agad sa kanya.

"Do I look like one?"

"Of course not, I've just ask"

"Why, any problems with a Clown?" parang nag-aalala niyang tanong.

"Yeah, I'm scared of it"

"Whoa, I guess I'm not gonna bring you any clowns, then" pabulong niyang saad.

"Huh, did you say something?"

"No, Nothing. Oh sige na Sunny, may gagawin pa kasi ako eh. Btw can I at least invite you?"

"Where?"

"It's a welcoming party for my brother, he'll be back here in the Philippines from States. Don't worry I'll accompany you through the whole night" he said with assurance. Ano pa nga bang magagawa ko diba? 'Di naman pwedeng tumanggi, nakakahiya yun.

"Sure, no problem. Just send me the address and I'll come. Btw here's my number--" he stop me from getting my phone.

"No need, I already have it" then he smile again.
Ano daw, ako may number na sa kanya? How does it happen?

"W-what? How?"

"Magic, ok bye Sunny see you around" then he bid a goodbye.

At ang ending tulaley ang lola niyo.

Nakakaloka talaga, paano niya nakuha ang number ko?
Wala naman akong pinagbigyan non. Ang weird ah. Hayy, nevermind.
