The next morning, Eunice briefed us about the client and how the presentation would flow

"More importantly, be confident since strategy natin ito. If there are questions na hindi niyo alam ang isasagot, just say na you will consult this to me and ako na bahala magelaborate sa kanila"

"Okay" I replied


"By the way, Migs, kamusta na yung dinala mo sa hospital?" Ram suddenly asked

"I think he's okay" Migs replied "stable na condition but still need to stay sa hospital"

"You said it's chicken pox diba?"

"Yes why?"

"Hindi kaya mahawaan ka?"

"I don't think so" Migs replied "nagkaroon na ako ng chicken pox before" he added then looked at me "nahawaan ako nung isang kong schoolmate"

"Ah I see. Good then, di tayo madedelay" Ram grinned

Problema nito ni Miguel?



Pinahiram ni Ram yung kotse niya sa aming dalawa and.... Miguel can drive?

"Sigurado ka bang makakarating tayo ng buhay?" I asked Miguel. We are sitting inside the car and nagdadalawang isip akong sumabay 

"If you don't want to go with me sabihin mo lang" Miguel said and started the engine

"Well, para kasing mas safe sa bus.. You know..." I replied and he looked at me

"Wala kang tiwala sa driving skills ko?"

"Hindi ko nga alam na marunong kang magdrive eh"

"Ella, I can even drive a truck. I have license for it"


Talaga ba Miguel?

"Okay" I just replied

"Trust me. Hindi naman ako para patayin ka" he said and started moving the car

And..

Everything is so harmonious and comfortable

He's very careful and kitang kita mo na matagal na siyang nagddrive

"Nga pala, bakit kanina you looked at me when Ram asked you about the chicken pox?"

"Bakit? Kanino ba ako nahawa before?"

"Malay ko sayo, kung saan saan ka kasi nagpupunta"

"Hanggang ngayon hindi mo aminin na hinawaan mo ako"

"Wala akong alam sa sinasabi mo" I replied 

And he stopped talking after that, seryoso wala siyang clapback sa sinabi ko?


Pagdating namin sa parking lot, di niya ako inimikan and tuloy tuloy lang siya after namin lumabas ng kotse

Galit ba siya kasi nagalala ako sa buhay ko?

Dapat ba akong magapologize dahil I'm careful with my life?

Or galit siya kasi hindi ko maconfirm na ako talaga nakahawa sa kanya ng chicken pox before? 

Wait, ang petty naman kung yun yung dahilan niya diba?


"Hoy" I called him after namin makapasok sa elevator

"What?"
