Sōgo Setsuzoku (On-Going)

SS 11: Lemon

"Anong plano sa Christmas Vacay?" pagtatanong ni Celeste kila Mom kasi asa hapag kainan kami ngayon eating dinner.

"Ah, plano namin na magbakasyon sa Baguio kasi maganda dun sa Pasko, parang ibang bansa nadin dahil malamig. Also if payag kayo magbobook na agad kami ng hotel rooms para hindi tayo maubusan" my mom said

"Sounds good Mom" pagsingit ni Kuya

"So it's set? Baguio will be our destination sa pasko ha!" sabi ni mom na halatang excited na pati sya, matagal narin kasi kaming hindi nakakapunta sa Baguio

Natapos na kaming kumain at nagyaya si Kuya samin ni Celeste na dumaan sa Starbucks tapos at the same time, we'll check on Nina. Hindi parin natatapos yung issue nya dahil mahirap idemanda si Anthony dahil anak sya ng governor namin. Malakas yung power na hawak nya pero if si Gov ay okay lang sa idea na yun, edi mabuti.

"Ah twins, nagset na pala kami ng meeting with Governor tomorrow" sabi ni Kuya habang nagdadrive

"Well, that's nice Kuya." sabi ko naman

Hanggang sa nag usap at nag usap nalang yung dalwa pero hindi ako nakikisali. Something si bothering me kasi.

There's this boy, pinaparamdam nya saakin na napakaimportante ko sakanya pero hindi ko alam kasi sabi nga nila "Action speaks louder than words" pero diba if puro actions naman, nakakalito sya? I mean, we need to hear those words para malaman talaga natin?

Nabalik ako sa katotohanan dahil tinawag na ako ni Celeste

"Hoy, you're spacing out. May problema ka no?" tanong nya sakin

"A-ah wala, napatulala lang siguro"

Kinuha ko yung dala kong ballpen galing sa bag ko, and yes lagi na ako nagdadala ng ballpen incase gusto kong kausapin yung mga soulmates ko

'L: Guys, gusto ko na uli kayong mapanaginipan.'

Wala pang ilang minuto, someone answered

'H: I guess we are too stressed to even dream of each other'

Siguro tama nga si Soulmate H? May mga personal life naman kasi kami syempre kaya hindi maiiwasan na mastress kami mapaschool or bahay man.

'S: Hey kung sino man sainyo yung nalilito if a boy likes her, I've been there. You jusy need to ask the boy if he feels something towards you. Don't think too much'

Oh! Oo nga pala, mararamdaman namin kung ano yung nararamdaman ng isa't isa, that's why Soulmate S felt my confusion.

'L: Oh ako yun! Yes, don't worry. I'll try to ask him'

'Y: Nako, if that boy will hurt you sabihin mo lang saamin. Kahit malayo kami we'll kill him!'

Natawa nalang ako sa sinabi ni Soulmate Y at binura ko nadin yung writings sa kamay ko because we're already here in Starbucks

––––––––––

"Ahm, kakausapin ko ba sya? Or bukas nalang? Pano kung busy sya ngayon? Or oo! Baka tulog na? Ay ewan na!" pagkausap ko sa sarili ko sabay gulo ng buhok ko

"Hay Lemon, nababaliw ka na!" dagdag ko

Ringgg ringgg**

Holyy? He's calling! Shit shit! He's. Calling. Me!

Syempre sino ba naman ako para hindi sagutin yung tawag.

"Hello?" panimula niya

"Oh? Bakit ka napatawag?" tanong ko sakanya

"Wala lang, I just want to check on you"

"Psh! Harot mo"

He chuckled, "Sayo lang naman Aria "

"Why? Do you like me ha?"

"Isn't it obvious Aria?"

"Sa-sabihin mo nalang ng diretso! Andami mong arte Bailey!"

"Yes I like you. Goodnight Aria"

Call ended.

Tingnan mo yun! Pinatayan ako ng tawag, pero ha? He likes me? Bailey likes me?

I can't help but to smile, wait does it mean that I like him too? I'm happy that he likes me tsaka he's been bugging my mind lately? Hay. Hihingi nalang ako ng advices sa mga soulmates ko later

Bailey is one of my schoolmates, hindi kami magkasection because mas matalino sya sakin. Oo na aadmit ko na! He's section A.1, while I'm section A.3

Knock knock***

"Ah! Come in" sabi ko tapos pumasok sa loob si, dad?

"Nak, may nagtext saakin. Unknown number" Panimula nya

"Po? Tapos po?" tanong ko na nalilito kasi why would he tell me that?

"Sabi sa text this texter likes my Aria Clementine and he's willing to meet me in some time. Bailey daw yung pangalan? Kilala mo ba sya nak?"

Oh. My. Gosh.

"Ah! Dad opo I know him. Ah he confessed to me po earlier bago kayo pumasok sa room ko"

"Okay, please tell him to come here tomorrow. Wala naman kayong pasok diba? It's a Sunday tomorrow so tell him to come here"

"But dad what if family day nila?" I asked while fiddling my hands

"No buts Clementine. Goodnight sweetie" then he kissed me on my forehead at nagpaalam na

I was left there inside my room stunned. Hay nako. Well I guess this is good, mukhang seryoso naman sya saakin dahil ipinaalam nya kay daddy?

To Bailey:

Bailey, pinapapunta ka ni daddy dito bukas. Ikaw na bahala sa oras. Goodnight.

From Bailey:

Sure, I'll see you tomorrow then. Good night Aria.
