Chapter theme : Fireproof - One Direction
All of my fears about Slade's condition melted upon seeing how much Reika took care of him and how much comfortable he was with Reika. The household even got better with Uncle Rico with us. Bukod sa parang may tatay na sa bahay, nakakatuwa rin dahil nakikita kong unti-unti na silang nagkakaayos ni Reika.
I still worry about Slade, but knowing he has Reika, kahit paano ay palagay na ako. I can't believe I'm saying this, but I think Jethro's going to win our bet.
"What can I get you?" tanong ko sa customer na naupo sa bar stool. It's a weekend, walang lectures o duty sa ospital, kaya naman nagkaroon ako ng pagkakataon na mag-trabaho sa club. Bonus pa dahil ako ang pinag-mando sa bar kagaya ng dati, at hindi ako pinagtrabaho bilang waitress.
Habang nagmi-mix ng mga inumin, napansin kong may naupo sa karaniwang pwesto ni Jethro. Pasimple akong napasulyap sa direksyon nito at napangiti ako nang makita ko siya. Gaya ng dati, inilabas na naman niya ang laptop niya.
"Long time no see, stone man," pabiro kong bungad nang lumapit sa kanya. Ilang araw na rin mula nang maaksidente si Slade. Masyado kaming naging abala sa kanya-kanya naming ginagawa kaya hindi na kami masyadong nakaka-hang out nang kami lang.
"Missed you too, Villafranca," he joked sarcastically with his usual emotionless tone and facial expression.
"Lagi ka ba talagang tumatambay sa club after class para lang makipag-socialize?" Pinaningkitan ko siya ng mga mata.
Umiling siya. "Kapag nandito ka lang. Masyadong maingay ang ibang bartender."
"Should I be flattered?" Ngumiwi ako.
"You, should get me a drink." He drawled jokingly while opening his laptop.
"Oo na." I rolled my eyes.
"Whiskey this time please," pahabol niya sabay taas ng hintuturo. Cute
"Nice try." I shook my head. "Still giving you non-alcoholic because you'll be driving me home." I grinned.
"No, I won't," seryoso niyang sambit sabay iling. Akala yata niya mauuto ako eh pagkatapos naman nito siguradong magyayaya na naman siya sa tapsihan.
"My my... what do we have here, Filimon?"
Kapwa kami napalingon at nakita namin si Cohen na pasuray-suray habang umiinom mula sa wine glass niya. Cohen looks dashing in his red leather jacket, as usual.
"Cohen..." Jethro said flatly and sighed.
Ngumisi si Cohen at sumulyap sa laptop ni Jethro. "Ano 'to? Netflix and Chill?"
"Get lost, Lorenzo," Jethro replied coldly. Mukha na naman siyang principal na gusto nang mag-resign.
Sumulyap sa akin si Cohen at humalakhak sabay taas ng wine glass niya. "Correction! Netflix and Chillver!"
