Wounded Memories (La Union Series #1)

I asked Ayna to help me find something that I could give to Theron for our fourth monthsary. I know it's not necessary since he already had everything but I thought that maybe I could treat him something. Not a luxurious one, he doesn't need it.

"Ano bang gusto niya? Or hilig?"

Sumimangot si Ayna nung lumabas kami sa pang anim na men's boutique na pinasukan namin.

"Ako," I laughed when her face twisted because of disgust. "Just kidding"

"Eww, nagiging corny kana ah!"
"Hard hat nalang kaya na customize?" she suggested.

My eyes widen, "That's a bright idea! Tara" hinila ko siya sa kamay.

We literally ended up buying a white hard hat that has Theron's name. Hindi ko na sana palalagyan ng initials ko dun sa gilid pero nakipag away saakin si Ayna dun. Nahihiya naman na ako sa mga staff dun sa shop kaya wala akong nagawa kundi ang umoo nalang.

"Saan ba kayo magcecelebrate?" she asked while she's eating her donut.

"We haven't talk about it but I already have a place in mind,"

She raised an eyebrow, "Where? Hmm"

"Camp Avenue!" I chuckled when her eyes widen in shock.

"Luh, ang duga! That was our plan! Bakit mauuna kana?" she pouted.

"Babe, you can go there any time.."

Friday morning when I woke up feeling extra excited. My gift for him was already inside a box, wrapped with a gift wrap. I put a lot of effort wrapping my gift last night. I will bring a big bag for my clothes and other things. It's a bit hassle but I don't want to complain. I know it'll be worth it.

I curled my hair into loose curls. Put a nude lipstick in my lips. Nakapag paalam na din ako kanila Mom kagabi. Gaya nang dati wala naman silang sinasabi bukod sa mag ingat kami. Dinala ko yung sasakyan ko, iuuwi nalang nung kambal mamayang hapon. They know how to drive, Nazzer already got his driver's license last month.

I kissed Love's head before going out of my room. I already fed her when I woke up. I'm all smiles when I entered our room. Wendy is already seating on the chair next to mine. She waved her hand on me.

"Good morning," I said and smiled.

Her lips hanged open, "Is this a special day? You smiled at me"

I nodded my head, "Yeah. Fourth monthsary" I whispered the last two words.

She covered her mouth with her hand to suppress a scream. "Oh my god! Kaya pala! Saan kayo magce celebrate?"

Masaya akong nagkuwento sakanya kung ano yung mga balak naming dalawa ni Theron para sa araw na ito. Hindi naman daw madaming tao ngayon dahil may pasok pa. I was happy the whole day. I get to talk to some classmates that tried to approach me during our activities. I had fun opening my ears for their stories. It's a different feeling.

I'm walking with Wendy in the hallway when an unknown number called. I excused myself and answered it.

Hindi ko talaga ugali ang pagsagot sa mga tawag na galing sa mga hindi kilalang numero pero ngayon, nakiramdam ako. Baka nga importante ito.

"Hello, who's this?" I politely said.

"This is Theron's dad, can I talk to you?" he seriously asked.

I held on my chest and tried to stop it's fast beating. Even his voice in the phone is really scary.

"Why would you want to talk to me, sir?" I cleared my throat.
