Have You Seen This Girl

Chapter 76 Gateway to a heartbreak

Chapter 76

Jillian’s POV

What? Sorry? For what? Not making it to the airport? But it’s fine. It wasn’t a big deal.

Dahil masyado akong na-bother sa kinilos niyang iyon, hindi ko na tinuloy ang paglabas ko. Dito na lang ako sa bahay.

Upon sitting, I looked for Mitch’s name on my phone then I ring her. At isang ring lang, sinagot niya na agad. Aba! Ang aga ng bruha!

“Yes, Miss?” sagot niya.

“Can you come over today?”

“Sure . . . but why? What’s your problem?” she asked.

“Wala lang, na-miss kita. Hehe,” pambobola ko sa kaniya but it didn’t work.

“Problema mo nga sinabi?!”she asked in a dominating manner.

“Si Cyrus kasi hindi ko maintindihan. Nandito siya kaninang umaga, and I think mula kagabi pa. Puro kagat ng lamok ‘yung balat niya. And when I asked him to come inside, he just hugged me and said he just wanted to see me then that’s it, he ran off afterwards.”

That did it. I spilled the beans.

“How sweet,” she said while giggling.

“Sweet mo mukha mo. Parang ang weird niya kasi e, basta may iba. Ewan!” Sinabunutan ko pa ang sarili ko. Naguguluhan kasi talaga ako sa kinikilos niya.

“Ayan ka na naman, Miss Forever Paranoid. Alam mo ganyan talaga ang mga lalaki, mas mahirap pang-ispelengin kaysa sa mga babae. Ganyan din si James no. Magkaibigan ‘yung dalawa, dikit bituka nila. It’s normal.”

No, that wasn’t his normal. Hindi naman siya ganoon ka-weird dati. Yes, he’s kind of eldritch but not of that what he just showed a while ago.

“Basta nag-aalala kasi ako, e. Punta ka na lang dito, please?”

“Okay. Fairygodmother to the rescue. I’m hanging up.”

I ended the call and I went upstairs to change my clothes. Nakapang-jogging attire pa kasi ako, eh. After fixing myself, bumaba na ako at pinaghanda na ng pagkain si Mitch. Pakunswelo ka na lang sa kaniya dahil inabala ko siya ng ganito kaaga.

Thirty minutes after, she arrived with a plastic on hand. I think she brought food! Wow.

“Good morning, best friend!” she greeted me with such joy and then she hugged me. Clingy much!

“Ano ‘yang bitbit mo?”

“Ice cream,” wika niya habang nilalagay sa ref iyon.
